Bollywood action extravaganza...
 
I've seen many over the top sci-fi movies in my time. Movies from all over the world. Good ones, bad ones, really bad ones. And yet, I don't know what to call this one.
The sequence you are about to see is from an Indian movie named Endhiran. The most expensive Indian movie ever produced. I have not seen it yet but I think I should. :)
What makes it even more interesting is that this sequence was put together by russians so it is dubbed over the original language. Don't be confused. :)

Who wants to tag it?

Ah, a classic. Bizarro, really bizarro, but epic at the same time.

Mind boggling isn't it... :D Can't wait til I see the "musical numbers" in it. There is gotta be.:D:D:D

I'm thrilled they were able to throw in a Wilhelm Scream.

A Bollywood rip off of the TERMINATOR, The MATRIX with a little Transformers thrown in for flavor. What is astonishing is that even with a large budget, those Bollywood filmmakers still can't make something ridiculous. :eek:

Well that was different.

Bollywood shows are the WORST! I've been on two that filmed here in America. I don't know if what I saw was S.O.P., but they were incredibly disorganized (but managed to shoot a grueling shotlist by way of crew abuse ;) ) and I kept on wonder if ANY of the guys in charge had ever made a film before in their lives....... Don't want to diss all Bollywood sets, but the few that I've set foot on, were nightmares.

You know, now that my initial "WTF?!" reaction has worn off, I might consider giving this a watch if it ever comes to America. :p

AVclub actually watched the whole thing and did a write-up on it today.

http://www.avclub.com/articles/enthiran,52653/

The strangest thing that I got from the article (other than the fact that the robot had a conversation with a mosquito) is that all the bad, fan film-quality CGI was actually done by the Stan Winston Studios and ILM. If this thing wasn't three hours long, I might actually consider renting it when it came out here.
