Some of us might remember pestering their parents to buy them the action figures of the once famous cartoon,G.I Joe. It was not so long when it captivated millions of minds of naive children.Well, now Hasbro is back to captivate the minds of people of all age. Stephen Sommers now brings to you, G I Joe: The Rise of the Cobra

The movie starts with a platoon of soldiers transporting a deadly new weaponry:nanobots which feed on metals(they have a serious diet issue!). Duke and Ripcord are their transporters, if they have real names I missed them, and they’re not important. They’re hijacked by terrorists with weapons beyond their ability to defeat, and then simultaneously saved by friendly forces with equally bad ass, over the top weapons. Intrigued they tag along with the new good guys, members of a secret force of specially trained soldiers. The good guys have a ninja too, only theirs is cooler because he never talks. They call themselves G.I. Joe.

The terrorists are run by a weapons manufacturer named McCullen and in his lair he has a strange assortment of hired killers, horribly scarred scientists, super-ninjas and of course a brunette bombshell named Anna. McCullen is out to take over the world or blow it up or something, it really doesn’t matter. Whatever his reasons, he gets his hands on a super weapon and G.I. Joe is the only force with the firepower to stop him.

Then begins the epic battle to stop MARS( McCullen's corporation) from nuking Beijing,Moscow and Washington with nanobots. Some crazy aircraft maneuvering saves the day, whereas, in the other part of the world,Duke finds his long lost love(LLL) and reunites with her to kill Commander Cobra.The movie ends with the Commander being prisoned, but the coolest part of the movie is shown just at the last second. Someone of Cobras' command impersonates himself as the President of US, thus indicating, a next movie is not that far away!! Hope you have enjoyed the movie as I have.And also hope you like this review!

The Others

By
Just finished watching the fourth episode of season 4 and I noticed a couple of things. The way the episode portrayed the Others was extremely intriguing since the books do not divulge too much information about this icy mystique. In the episode, we first sense that the Others are about to come when we see the poured water freezing in front of Ghost. Whenever the Others appear, the temperature drops or they appear WHEN the temperatures drop. Research about them is scarce, as Samwell Tarly says in book five (small spoiler, sorry!). Whatever the case, they are correlated with a drop in temperatures. If you see water freezing instantly, you better get your dragon steel ready. We then see one of the Other taking the sacrificed baby on a horse to a mountain. This is where things get really interesting. The one riding the horse is the familiar Other. We have seen him before. He was the one leading the attack against the Night's Watch men on Fist of the First Men. But the second Othe...

Bermuda Triangle: The Devil's Lair

By
Many people argue, that it doesn't exist. And, you won't find it in any map.The U. S. Board of Geographic Names does not recognize the Bermuda Triangle and does not maintain an official file on it. However, within this imaginary area, many real vessels and the people aboard them have seemingly disappeared without explanation. The Bermuda Triangle is located off the Southeastern coast of the United States in the Atlantic Ocean, with its apexes in the vicinities of Bermuda, Miami, Florida, and San Juan, Puerto Rico. It covers roughly 500,000 square miles. The main mystery surrounding the Devils Lair is of unusual and unsolved disappearances o f many ships and planes.According to Llyod's of London reported 428 missing vessels throughout the world between 1955 and 1975.But, the report only contained huge vessels which were insured.Gian J. Quasar, author of "Into the Bermuda Triangle: Pursuing the Truth Behind the World's Greatest Mystery" , later found out 300 mis...

"Why are you mixing English with your native tongue?"

By
I was asked the aforementioned question while I was talking in Bengali (!) with my parents. I put down my phone, smiled and turned towards my friend and said to him: "Oh! Everyone in my country does it.We mix a couple of English words here and there with our language". With a quizzical expression, he said: "That's weird. Why don't you speak in fluent Bengali? Isn't that your mother tongue?" His questions stopped me on my track, because the answer shocked and shamed me. I realized that the reason we don't speak in straight Bengali is because we don't know how to. That we are too much used to speaking in English with everyone back in our country. That we focused so much on English that we forgot our own mother tongue. I didn't want to tell my friend that there are people, students of my age, who preferred English over Bengali, preferred to write essays in English than in Bengali. Heck! I know people who can't even count from 1 to 100 in ...
