Uh, Thilak, I was very much crediting Suhasini for the dialogue of Iruvar! The dialogue of Iruvar is somewhat expositional at times, but more than makes up for it with the oozing nativity and some brlliantly written 'Maniesque' lines. Note, I use 'Maniesque' to mean the exact opposite of 'expositional,' not to say that it comes from Mani.Quote:

Remember the number of times a word as archaic as 'nanban' is uttered in ThaLapathi?Quote:

I didn't get to see this pattimandram. Thanks for the link, Joe. It seems worth watching!Quote:

With sufficient assumptions, there is a relative stable equilibrium there.
Given that no-one thinks enough about titles - i.e. thinks the movie is the same regardless of what it is called - the natural equilibrium will setlle to Tamil names.
And the person concerned will have problems with his title no matter what. So it is an universal optimal solution anyway :-)
That's a behavioural economics paper , right there !
ayyO, what a turd-fest from the 'sAdhanai' team.... Not that it's surprising. And, I agree with crajkumar_be. The 'sOdhanai' did make some good points.
They did succumb to the usual pitfalls, but then, if they had argued with even better clarity and offered sharper perspectives, it might have alienated the opposition team! enna solRAnga'nne puriyAma pOyirukkalAm... :)
