His most dangerous mission yet. Bulundi's old partner is now cutting his own path in the field of private investigation, and armed only with his unique "ladygun" that fires various, individual women, including one very special woman who fires another gun of her own when discharged, our hero is ordered to visit Bombay where he must speak to everyone in English.

Is that a Hindi Michael Richards?

[up][up]In the mean streets of Bollywood Metropolis, crime runs rampant. In order to combat this rise in criminal activity, the police put together a ragtag team of a Tank Minotaur (like a regular Minotaur except the bottom half is a tank), Curly, and Otacon. However, the Minotaur's girlfriend gets captured, and he calls the team to rescue her. He then finds out that the one who captured her is responsible for all crime in the city. He must take him down to ensure the city's safety.

[up]A wacky comedy about a high school class consisting entirely of held back students. Some of these students were held back for a loooooong time. The movie also touches on the exchange students' (the black guy and the Asian chick, and probably the two White looking guys) backgrounds, and how they get along adjusting to their new environment.

No, you don't need to focus your eyes.

Bhoot Returns, the sequel to 2011's award-winning character drama Bhoot: The Girl with the Two-Tiered Cranium—the emotional tale of a four-eyed, four-nostriled, and two-brained little girl from New Dehli who becomes a global celebrity through acts of heroism (helping the police when their sniffing dogs get stumped) as well as acts of physical achievement (winning the Under-12 South India Staring Competition Circuit) but slowly feels distant from the rest of humanity (much like Dr. Manhattan in Watchmen) as her two functioning brains grow an ever superior intellect with a far greater understanding of the greater cosmos any normal human shall ever know.

In this film, Bhoot continues her epic quest to become a half-god as the ancient Hindu prophecy is believed to have foretold... with nothing but a backpack full of jelly donuts. **SPOILER ALERT** A few screenshots leaked on Twitter reveal that material has been recorded with Bhoot wearing her one-of-a-kind two-tier eyeglasses from that classic scene in the original film, in which Bhoot stops wearing her new glasses after one day because all the other kids at school call her "eight-eyes". This is thought to be one of several moments from the first film that are thought to get a passing reference in the form of a Call-Back, but it's not yet confirmed to be part of the finished product. In theaters this August.

...I got nothing.

One of the few films in the obscure "sex dramedy" genre and a little known inspiration to the more vulgar and teen-oriented Porky's. Two deadbeat grown men seek to lose their virginity after their boasts about their sexual prowess are found out to be false. Not wanting to endure anymore mocking from their more successful peers, the duo heads to Doraha, an infamously-sensuous sauna and bathhouse in Kerala. Its owner, six feet tall and extremely gorgeous, has a reputation for being a seductress.

But what happens when she and the younger of the men become emotionally involved? Will he be able to heal the wounds in her extremely tall soul, or will his perverted peeping Tom of a friend threaten to put an end to their blossoming love?

Well THIS certainly looks eventful, if nothing else...

and then they fricked in the booty

...And Reginald P. Linux spoke, "Take this DOLLHEAD, you DOUBLEHEAD!" Then he threw the doll at the Amazing 2-Headed Confused Man. But, instead of killing this horrific creature through pure boredom, the odd-looking figurine doll became the unholy creature's conscience. Look for Phoonk 2, or Terrible Trio, One Body, as it will be released stateside, in media entertainment store bargain bins this September.

Say something funny.

Though the title is inscribed in some kind of extraterrestrial dialect, do not be fooled!

This film is about the schism between the former Fabulous Fivesome: an elite and widely feared interstellar assassin troupe. Come see the ensuing drama as these bulbous creatures assume humanoid form and do battle! Only ONE will stand out on top! From the quasi-heroics of Indian Barney Fife, to somewhat stoned sexy looking guy, to Brian Blessed, to... some woman, and even to James Smith... er... Mr. Bond... er... yeah, a mix between Mr. Smith and James Bond. Who is a chain smoker.

I dunno about you, but this looks like DABANGG to me.

This prequel film to "Turkish Star Wars" follows India Jones in his younger days when he'd throw on a leisure suit and strut his stuff to unlicensed muzak from Saturday Night Fever on his way down to the city discotheque while always avoiding constant gunfire by running in a zig-zag formation.

I think this poster is for the same movie as[up].

Do you like guns?

I'm sure you do.

Do you like to shoot people with guns?

I'd hope so.

If all of that is true, then Don is the movie for you! Taking place in an even MORE rundown, dystopic version of India, armed resistance members against the harsh regime's iron grip on society battle drugged, brainwashed, and heavily armed citizens. EVERYONE has a gun, but the question is... WHO will be the one to pull the trigger? Who is friend or foe? The only solution is through the threat of violence.

When the nymph fairy chimes her bell three times, an unfortunate woman will be trapped under her spell and forced to "pucker up" for PUKAR...

BUT after a young girl named Mamata falls under this dangerous spell, can the powers of a shrewd genie in blackface snap her out of it in time to for her to resist the most devious of Pukar's romantic charms? FIND OUT!

I say something humorous here, too?

An extraterrestrial personification of death on his pale horse and his nobody brother Bob (on the black horse) assail a very well guarded and remote Indian fortress. Only a deed most vile, most unsavory, most UNSPEAKABLE could warrant such a direct form of divine intervention. To tell more would be to spoil the wondrous experience of GOA.

Come see acclaimed actor Johar Mehmood at his finest! Everyone will be able to experience his nearly trademarked apathy once more!

A young couple falls madly in love after the discovery of a mysterious, extremely delicious goo dubbed "Mehbooba" that oozes from the Earth and is marketed as the newest dessert sensation in all of India. But the sugary treat rots more than teeth when zombie-like junk food eaters begin infesting the world.

Which one's the protagonist?

Coming soon to a theater nowhere even close to you... comes a tale of intrigue, romance, and sex.

And more sex.

Follow around two pairs of fraternal twins, each consisting of a male and female sibling, as they clash heads with rival fraternal twins. Little do they know, their seemingly unconscious drives for violence upon one another stems from each pair being bred in competing biotubes as an experiment into the human capacity for violence. However, this quickly backfires, as they escape their predicaments, only to forget where their roots are (as it is coded within their genes). They wage war on one another, each member of the same sex warring, but each member of the opposing sex engaging in copious coitus, thus inflaming the conflict further! As they come to terms with who they each are, as the memories come back, as their own humanity comes back, what will become of them?

Who the fuck knows!

HOOZ DA MASTAH?! SHO'LAY!

The Greatest Story Ever Told—The story of six separate people who travel to the remote mountainous village of Uttarkashi for one thing: to swear vengeance against the one known as Sholay. Each of the six people claim their own this mysterious individual for a heinous event in their own lives and plots to kill him, but when one of their own number turns up dead, things turn ugly and kinships fray as someone in the group may not be who he/she claims to be after all...

Based on the Novel by New York Times Best-Selling Author G.P. Sippy that is totally original and in no way hackneyed, cliched nonsense.

Gotta admire the stoic discipline of somebody able to keep this straight a face while... EEESH!!!!

A classic of the Indian Fish out of Temporal Water genre, Sholay tells the tale of two brothers, Prasad and Manish Sholay, who are veterans of the Indo-Pakistani War of 1965 turned hitmen that find themselves transported back in time to 1857 after volunteering for a Mad Scientist's experiment. Although they initially find adjusting to life in the 19th century British Raj difficult (and Prasad believes that he could find a way to return to the 20th century), this become even more complicated when Manish falls in love with the sister of a disgruntled Sepoy from a different caste than themselves. Finally, the Sholay brothers decide to stay in India to use their knowledge of modern weapons and warfare to train the rebel sepoys in the Indian Mutiny to fight against the British, and ends with a climatic shootout between the Sholays' men armed with assault rifles and automatic weapons and the British troops.

...fuck, I'd watch that movie.

An epic tale directly involving the audience for the first time in Hindi and world cinema, complete with characters talking to the audience and trying to shoot them. Watch as guy loves girl, to the disapproval of the forever-trying-to-sneeze man, and the badass grandma who can dish it out with the family rifle on the audience, as the punishment for them watching the film and causing her so much grief. Her porn star son, however, can aim much better.

Can I just say, as a guy who has seen many of these movies, that you guys are hilariously awesome, and I hope this thread continues well.

This one should be entertaining.

Thank you very much. Hearing these words coming from someone with actual familiarity of what any of these movies actually are means quite a lot.

EDIT: And your avatar is a statue of this guy, isn't it?

Anyway...

Three identical triplets—Sanjiv, Rakesh, and Hamza—travel to New Dehli to appear on the hit talent contest show India's Next Great Top Factor with the dream of becoming famous singing dancers, but just after they pass the judges' audition, Sanjiv and Rakesh die horribly in a freak accident that leaves Hamza—by far, the least appealing member of the trio—emotionally scarred as he's now faced with the daunting challenge of having to compete in the contest as a solo performer.

As Hamza falters at the beginning of his first performance before a live crowd, the ghosts of Sanjiv and Rakesh appear to their brother (the only person who can see them) and give him the encouragement he needs by dancing and singing alongside Hamza so he can finish his act on a strong note. This helps Hamza stay on the show for an extra week, and the ghosts of Sanjiv and Rakesh continue helping Hamza during the subsequent weeks. However, once Hamza makes it all the way to the finals, the ghosts of his dead brothers no longer appear because Hamza's doctor put him back on his prescribed brain medication, and Hamza must find the drive and determination to be a famous singing dancer that has been inside him all along.

The tag line says it all... I guess...

Any time, my friend. smile

Yes, it is. The man, Raj Kapoor, is considered the Show Man of Hindi cinema and was responsible for some of our greatest films; his grandson, Ranbir, was in the poster that I put up in my post and is one of my favorite actors (his choice of roles is usually much better).

Frankly, your description of the film was ten times better than the actual film.

So...

Three friends are hoodwinked by an evil sorceress with psychic dress and hair design to fall in love with each other in such a way that each one of them loves one and wants to violently kill the other with their weapon of choice. Will they save each other and defeat the evil sorceress?

Enjoy.

Rajat Khan, the biggest, most successful lounge singer in all of Mumbai has just had a hit placed on his head by another jealous singer who can't stand being constantly upstaged by Rajat. But why is he smiling? He just used his massive wealth and influence to hire the six best and most badass bodyguards in all of India to follow him wherever he goes and constantly peer over his shoulders, and now there's NO PROBLEM. Being a rich pop star is great.
