[Bollywood]

[angelofcaffeine.livejournal.com]

I grew up on Bollywood films, but not every Westerner is going to like them. Regardless of whether or not they're into musicals. :/

[(Anonymous)]

I think I love you, OP.

Especially for having SRK in there. <3

[wldcatsprstr-14.livejournal.com]

Just because you're a fan of something doesn't mean you want to consume every single piece of that thing ever. I'm a fan of food but I have no desire to taste every edible thing there is. I'm also a fan of sex but I don't wanna sleep with every person in the world.

I think you're overreacting a bit.

[kelincihutan.livejournal.com]

I haven't seen all of them, but I wouldn't blame people for skipping Devdas. It's very pretty and stupendously depressing. If I want to watch a depressing SRK movie, I'll watch Kal Ho Na Ho, thank you very much.

[(Anonymous)]

I'd love to see what they're like. Can anyone please give me the names of these movies?

[tsukisei.livejournal.com]

Can anyone provide a list of the movies shown? The only one I recognize is Devdas.

[athenegenia.livejournal.com]

Yes! This!
Ok, I recognise Lagaan, Devdas, and...Om Shanti Om. Anyone know what the others are?

[(Anonymous)]

list of films;
fanaah, laagan, zodha akbar, om shanti om, dilwale dulhania le jayenge, devdas, 3 idiots, and baadshah(?) not so sure about the last one.

[(Anonymous)]

I think everyone should give Bollywood musical, Korean dramas, British comedy shows, Swedish crime shows, and Brazilian telenovelas a whirl before rejecting them. Just as a general "welcome to the world, other people have their own popular culture, too" thing.

But alas, not everyone has the time, opportunity or will to find them, want them and watch them. And let's face it, Bollywood is an acquired taste, the performances, the writing, the narrative, the music, the cultural conventions. You don't need to watch eight of them to realize that this is not your cup of tea, one can be enough.

[ceruleansan.livejournal.com]

BOLLYYYY

But why no Hrithik? :c

[smicklesmockle.livejournal.com]

ilu OP, for having Lagaan and Dilwale Dulhania there. <3

[semi-subtle.livejournal.com]

Sorry, but no thanks. Bollywood doesn't appeal to me in the slightest.

[standardtastic.livejournal.com]

No thanks.

How about listing the films that are SO important for us to watch? Not everyone has easy access to Bollywood films, and while I've liked the Bollywood films I've seen, there's very few available on Netflix.

Not having an interest in Bollywood movies doesn't negate anyone's love for musical movies.

[(Anonymous)]

Sorry, I like musicals, but I loathe Bollywood films.

A lot of the female singing voices cut through me like a KNIFE.

[(Anonymous)]

uuuh, I'm a fan of musicals but I don't like French musicals (as all) or most of the old Hollywood movies or every single British musical I see. I'm not saying I wouldn't watch a Bollywood movie if it was given to me but I'm not going to seek it out.

It's like judging someone who likes classical music because they don't like rap. It's stupid, they're different genres.

[childings.livejournal.com]

I really dislike musicals and even I've seen Lagaan.

[(Anonymous)]

I really love Bollywood films, but not everyone is going to live in a place with easy access to them... There's always internet, but still.

Annnd basically what everyone else said about differences in personal taste.

[murderershair.livejournal.com]

OMM SHANNTI OMMM

that said, uh, what if they just haven't *heard* of any of them before? Chill out, OP.

[dudette-in-town.livejournal.com]

I'm a fan of musicals and have watched like half of the movies you listed and I didn't like them. Bollywood musicals are far too cheesy for my taste and the plots are very predictable(with Om Shanti Om being the only exception).

[(Anonymous)]

How about those of us who like the, y'know, live theatre aspect of musicals? Or are we judged by your snottiness, too?

[regendy.livejournal.com]

I love both Bollywood and quite like musicals, but I can see why fans of one wouldn't necessarily be fans of the other. Bollywood movies where the characters sing tend to use songs very differently from Western-style stage musicals. The latter use songs to advance the plot (see: Les Mis and others that have next to no spoken dialogue); the former use songs to convey emotions or relationships. Songs are an important part of Bollywood films, but they're not THE most important part.[/teal deer]

(That said, everybody should see Om Shanti Om. EVERYBODY.)

[(Anonymous)]

I'd like to get into Bollywood, but I haven't the faintest idea where to even start.
