snap my picture!!!
anyone been watching utv world movies? there are certain things about it that bug me to no end… conceptually, it’s a good idea. international films, 24 hours a day. with a bit of hollywood thrown in.
but really, 6 movies a day, including repeats? and a name that’s a rip off of two rival channels? and unnecessary censoring? and english subtitles on english films? and incorrect ones, at that?
i was watching scary movie 2 the other night, and there’s this one bit that’s a spoof on charlie’s angels. you know the bit with the prodigy’s smack my bitch up. that’s right… censored lyrical subtitles: snap my picture!
icontrol: the tv is your masseur
mtnl has just launched its version of tivo, called icontrol. with a slogan that is typically sarkari in more ways than one: “tv is servant.” and what does this servant do? besides recording your programs, it even offers maalish services.
that’s right… dth and regular cable guys don’t give you that, do they?
