The railway romance!

The train station has a feeling of enchantment, 

the dust of wanderlust, invisible but felt

the metal doors of dreams are right in front,
dreams of travel that you had,
of distances short and long, 

metal doors with places you have only heard,

you wish you could step in and go, 

but you wait for the train, 

that takes you back to routine

Why is it that you can't follow your dream?
the one to take the road less traveled?

Guess we aren't taught to follow dreams
Our wings clipped long ago in school

Or are we too afraid to break the routine,
and embrace the unknown?




Wrote this sitting in a railway station that will take me home, yet so many trains stopped in front me that could take me to a lot of places, there was a part in me that wanted to sit inside one of those trains and let it take me to wherever it was going. Yet I couldn't do it, there was commitments waiting for me in the grey side of things. People that I want to meet(people I have been seeing all along), work to go to and stuff like that. I would have liked to call myself free and do whatever I wish and I intent on making it work like that. This thought took me to another place and I have decided to travel more, not to be a tourist but a traveler. Hope I can do this. Also check this video out that inspired me a lot. This is how travel should be. I am sure this traveler has a part of Turkey ingrained in him, I am sure he would have touched the soul of Turkey in his travel. I hope all of us can travel the way he did, sooner or later.

An oath to write!

Impregnated by the desire to write,
to give form to new words,
to tie them up with meaning,
and with it, bring meaning to my own,
and to discover me,
I live on with this desire,
Live on so lazily,
sulking the thought of effort,
dragging dreamily  my mind from one thought to another,
I live on with this desire…


Writing is what I dream of, writing moves my soul. I have written before telling how much I want to write, check this write up if you want to know how much I love to write - Why the ink should flow or pixels I say , but I have never written. Yes you know, I am so fucking lazy. Whenever I feel like writing I feel enchanted, but whenever I start to write, I think about the effort required and I very conveniently find out something else to do, like playing Fifa, or watching TV or just mindlessly wandering through my twitter or fb feed to find something interesting. That’s write, no productivity! Productivity takes effort and effort takes real effort. :P

But from now on I am a changed man, I will put in at least one blog a day, I mean WEEK! So here I take the oath to write! It will mostly be my philo drabbing or pointless rants but occasionally I promise to find something interesting and put in here, like beers or football or books or beers :P

So here we go folks! One article a week! :D

Man of Steel : Review

I always adored Zack Synder and his movies, watchmen being one of my favourites. After waiting for more than an year he didn't dissappoint me with Man of Steel. Here goes my 10 second review, and don't worry, no spoilers.

Man of Steel is a great movie, and if you thought the movie wasn't good then you can blame Christopher Nolan for it. As simple as that, he gave us one of the best superhero movie franchise to us with his Batman rendition and now when we get a good movie it do not feel good enough for us because there is Batman on top of our head. So there you can blame Nolan :P

Man of Steel is the best Superman movie I have ever seen, there can be no doubt in it. Zack Snyder gives us a great visual and audio treat throught out the span of the movie with great performances from Henry Cavill and Michael Shannon , but not just them, the whole roster has given really great performances, especially Russel Crowe as Jor-El, superman's space dad and Kevin Costner as his foster father. I loved the depth portrayed in each character, we can see through what each person is really, the characters in this movie are all shown with a purpose and with every word they speak and every action they do, we get to know them more. Plus amazing amazing background score from the legend Hans Zimmer.

Znyder had a mammoth task of creating a movie with a guy who had no kind of weakness, who cannot be killed and who is almost God like with his strength, try to imagine how difficult it is to create a movie for a guy who can never fail, who can never be killed and still show it in a human sort of way? That is pretty much a mammoth task for me and Zynder pulls of it in a good way. Also in my opinion this was one of the best origin sequence I have ever seen, ofcourse after Batman Begins. Totally loved the origin of Kal-El.


Overall Man of Steel isnt a mind blowing affair, that could be fairly due to the extraordinary amount of hype it went through ever since the first trailer surfaced. But it do not dissapoint , it thrills us in certain ways. I believe movies aren't to be rated but more to be enjoyed, and in that aspect you will enjoy seeing man of steel. You might even go back to watch it again, there hope you get the picture. I liked it and I might watch it again :)

Plus watchout for the subtly placed easter eggs which might open up for the mouth watering prospect for Justice League :)

U turn!

Decision to close down thenightscripts is reversed, so is the decision to quit being a philosophical drab :P
(For the uninitiated , read this "Paradigm shift" )


I thought it will be cool to write about cool amusing stuff that interests everyone, but decided not too because that means I need to find time to write on that, I mean I hardly write here. More than time to write, I need to find interesting stuff, the research involved... blah! Cant cant!
This is much more simpler. Being me!! Writing what I want instead of trying to entertain the general crowd who may or may not care.

Also another important reason is that I have started another blog. It's more of a career centric blog, yes yes a gaming blog :)
More about the magical world of games there. Along with that started a twitter handle in the same name. So all of my effort would be to run that page good and proper.

So let this space be for me and my musings. For the dreamer and philosopher within. And for love :)

A paradigm shift :)

Hello everyone... This will probably will the last post from my blogspot thenightscripts.... :)

Or wait I don't think I should kill thenightscripts... It is a very fundamental part of me. But I want to get out of it and write much more amusing stuff, amusing not just to me but everyone, write about food, write about football, write about beer,  write about movies, art, books, beer... etc :)

I mean quit being a philosophical drab that interests none but myself. But I think keeping thenightscrips open would be a good idea for the late night drunk rants :P

Words, oh come closer,
Cos you are always so wondrous,
Come closer here, let me look at you,
Oh yes, there I see myself in you,
In bits and pieces I can see me wholly in you, stay closer now,
I need you with me....

So here's another blog for my love for words.

So nightscripts is gonna be labelled "Personal rants and philosophical drabs" from now on...

I need to find a new name for the blog... Let's see what I can come up with : )

Emotions, Choices and Crossroads :)

I always thought I am always right in terms of my emotions, I mean if I don't then who does?
But damn I am finding myself in the awkward position that I ask myself was I right? And if im wrong would I need to look back in regret?
In terms of  regular emotions like happiness and anger etc I guess we can pretty much be sure as you grew up with it, but what about the most complex emotion of all, love? How would I be sure? Have I been living in a shell of denial? I think I was but the possibility scares me to be frank. Like my best bud said to me this is what's like feeling high when I stated that I am not feeling drunk on the first time ever.
It scares me to think I am wrong, but I guess I just turned wiser to think that I can be wrong about what I feel inside myself. Damn freaking system! :P

Rumbles mumbles and tumbles :)

Today I am gonna blog! ! ! !
That is something I say to myself every day but sadly me being me, it never happens. And its important to me because writing and reading is something very close to me, I dont wanna go on another sprint about writing, but try reading this naa  !"Why the ink should flow"!!!

So anyway today for some reason I found the inspiration to do this,
Mm so cant believe its saturday, seemed a lot like friday, maybe coz of the number of hours spent in office.
So just back after Thatatthin Marayathu, describing it in one phrase - Mediocre at its decent best :P

The problem with the movie is that the best scenes in the movies are already shown in the promos.

Well nothing great and also they kind of over did the musical influence in the movie.

So right now watching Rockstar, havent watched it yet even thou I am in love with all the songs, Kun Faya Kun have to one of the best songs ever.

So cant believe Dark Knight Rises next week, I have never waited for a movie like I have waited for this.

Trying to learn touch typing.
Had a nice time in the Amaara Bonding session :)

Mm what else? Looking forward to sleeping  a  lot tomorrow and want to finish the book "Verukal" .

Well that is it I guess, damn this looks like a diary entry.

Guess I should log off! :P
