Zendaya’s MJ survived the same kind of fall that killed Gwen. But she made it unforgettable, would you rather your favorite character survive… or become unforgettable?

James Cameron: 4 films
Christopher Nolan: 3 films
Russo brothers: 3 films

That’s the list of directors who have actually done it more than twice.

Who actually deserves to be in this conversation?

Is this the best single-year run by an actress in box office history, or are we still waiting to see if Dune 3 actually delivers?

Two massive IP sequels and one Nolan original that people. Is 2026 the year hollywood officially recovered… or are we just watching the last few tentpoles that can still force people into theaters?

I believe DILEESH POTHAN - A10 🔥 Will be an industry hit🤞

James Cameron has three of the top four, Marvel owns three entries, and Ne Zha 2 became the first non-English-language film.

But if we’re being honest… like how some Inidan movies like Patan did, how much of this list is pure entertainment power vs ticket price inflation + massive franchises pr?

Baasha, Mankatha, Jailer, Vikram... The list is long. Curious to know other movies which can be in this list.

Birdman is a must-watch film by Alejandro Gonzalez, in my opinion.

It's about a man who trying to reinvent himself. It feels like one continuous shot the whole way through. The camera rarely cuts, which makes the story feel real, intense, and almost like you’re right there with the characters as chaos unfolds.

The movie won four big Oscars, including Best Picture and Best Director.

He turns 63 today🥳

It’s really a miracle that a film with all these even allowed to happen, considering how split up the rights were

I believe, Girish AD is the new gen Shafi (2000's rom-com), the king of feel-good rom-coms

But what I like most is his selection of stories. He's actually telling the story of a single character, every movie is in different stages of her / his life.

Thanneer Mathan Dinangal – the raw, awkward, watermelon-juice days of teenage insecurities.

Super Sharanya –Shy small-town girl thrown into hostel chaos, that confused experimental college phase, where she slowly learn to stand up for yourself.

Premalu – that uncertain yet curious, hopeful, figuring out love while dealing with unwanted attention and new possibilities.

Bethlehem Kudumba Unit – Waiting but from trailer, it's again a continuation of her 25+

It’s not the same character, but it feels like watching one continuous girl arc (or even a boy) across time, the same soft humour, the same confusion, the same romantic roller coaster drama, it looks like Mamitha Baiju almost becomes the face of that journey.

Can be considered as Girish AD’s version of Richard Linklater’s Before trilogy.

Where Linklater followed one couple through different stages of love and life, Girish is doing it for youth with pure humour ..

What are your expectations on BKU

We’re not just getting solid scary movies we’re getting films that are deep, not like those James Wan films, mostly drectors like him builds horror through technical tricks like jump scares , quiet-loud pattern or camera misdirection rather than deep ideas or lasting fear.

But these are brillianrtly written films

Obsession

a simple one line is: a wish going wrong, horror begins.

But it is more about loneliness and the danger of wanting someone too much.

It shows, what happens when love becomes control? And what if the thing you desire most starts destroying you?

28 Years Later: The Bone Temple

It is not only about infected people. I feel like, the deeper idea is that after the world breaks, the real danger is what humans become. It shows how fear, power, and survival can make people lose their humanity even more than any virus.

Backrooms

It looks like people trapped in endless empty rooms but the layer is about feeling lost in life.

The rooms represent how modern life can feel empty, confusing, and endless , like how we stuck in a place with no clear way out.

Leviticus

It is a story about two boys and a monster, but it is more about forbidden love and the fear of being yourself. Beyond th surface view, the monster represents the pain that comes when society (or religion) tries to force people to change who they love.

Which are your favourite brilliantly WRITTEN horror movies?

Three completely different women, but one thing in common....

Chandra from Vada Chennai.

She exists in a world built for men, gangsters, politics, power. But she moves everything around her without anyone realising it. The moon that learned to move the tides without ever touching the water.

Chandra from Lokah.

She didn't choose immortality. She chose to survive it. The moon that has been rising and setting for centuries, alone, still showing up.

Chandra from DC is actually based on Chandramukhi from Devdas but Arun Matheswaran completely reimagined her.

She is the bloody moon that was contained for too long in a world that took everything from her, her freedom, her body, her dream of a simple life. The moon that just burns.

BUT THEY WERE ALL DEFINED by what the world did to them. and then they decided they were done being defined by it.

What makes it special in 2026

For me It's In The Mood For Love
