Stupid Stupid!

I rarely blog from work but every once in a while i pop an artery at some instance of abject and complete moron-ness and it flows here.

Apparently Robert Downey Jr will not be visiting India to promote his film The Avengers. He has also magnanimously added, "I have watched a few Indian films and liked them." You're sure to have come upon such statements from these Hollywood biggies in the past too. My point is, why do our journalists ask these stupid questions: what do you think of Indian films? Would you like to star in an Indian production? How did you find the people of India? Teri toh! Unless these stars are as rude as i am, none of them state the obvious, "Well, you guys need to brush up your act since you're still making movies like Don 2 which should be titled Hollywood Recycled. As for visiting India, umm...let's see. I'll do it when I think it's time to stop paying my therapist and seek some ancient tantric sex. Btw, i hope you're aware we aren't even shooting for the Mumbai scenes in Mumbai. Dave, our spectacular CGI artist at Miramax, will create Colaba on a computer collage."
