I saw the moview Raajamanikyam in 2007 mid. I was having great expections about the director , story etc. This was to a great extent was true.The attarction in this movie was the accent and the language used by mammootty. I heard that this was taught by Suraj Venjaarammoodu.
While observing the movie, one small mistake I noted. In this movie , the grown up hero (mammootty) is with one eye, with other eye as fully damaged in his childhood.Though mammootty wear a Ray-Ban spects all time , he is removing the same in one scene , in-front of his own mother. Here his damaged eye is fully black (one can see and verify).
Nut in one scene , while having his Ray-Ban spects on his face, due to light coming from his back side or not, Ray-ban glass seems to be slightly transparent and in this scene , Mammootty is having his two eyes opened!!
The scene is where Mammootty and Manoj K Jayan meets in the Registrar office.

Colors of Cinema Dialogue
I was always thrilled by action and crime movies. The most attractive factor in those movies are its dialogues. Dialogues perfect in its meaning and delivery , I believe is a key factor in the success of a movie. Ranji Panicker and S N Swami are very good in writing those kind of punching dialogues.Sometimes the dialogue which was originally framed as a serious shot by director or script writer do its opposite.These then will ultimately result in comedy.[This is solely my opinion]
Movie : Naattu Rajavu
Dialogue : "Pattalavum Parivaarangalum illaatha Naattu Raajavu .Janicha Mannil Kaalurappichu
Nirthaan Padupedunna oru paavam Naattu raajavu. An Extra Ordinary Naattu
raajavu!"
This movies does not cast the hero as a Naaturaajavu , rather hero only could act as a Muthalaali and not sure on what basis the script writer added this part of the dialogue "Janicha Mannil Kaalurappichu Nirthaan Padupedunna oru paavam Naattu raajavu", this has nothing to do with the movie.
Movie : FIR
Dialogue : "Nookku, Sookshichu Nookku , Mansilayilla ?.. Use your brain?... "
This was told by a vetran police commissioner to senior police officer and his team in this movie.Showing them a small component of AK 47 Gun and ask them to identify the same.Poor guys! , they even might not have even seen AK 47 in thier life.Those guys if they use your brain , how will be able to identify the component?.. .Kalikaala vaibhavam..

Some funny songs in cinema which talks about computers
"Emailil Kathezhuthaam , Internetil nokkivaraam..." (Movie : Nammal , Director : Kamal)
This seems to be realistic. Used in its correct meaning.
"Computerin kaathil kavitha moolan ithile vaa" (Movie : Naaraanathu Thamburaan , Director : Viji Thambi)
This is stupid!. Just wanted to add some computer related stuff into the lyrics.
"Dekho simple magic , Internetin magic , Manichithra meelaappu" (Movie : Inthraprashtam , Director : Haridas)
Grr....

Excuse me for not remembering neither the movie name nor the director. I must check this with my movie database 'Dikri'.
In this cinema , the story is hi-fi , talking about genetic engineering by which Hitlers is reconstructed in the present world.This movie is having a computer expert. Some of the work where computer expert has done is hacking .That too NASA site. He is achieving this with 'Windows Media Player'.
Windows Media Player plays the visualizations and a Text is shown with Blinking "Hacking NASA..."
This guy also deserve an award from Microsoft for customization/modifying Windows Media Player to hack sites!!.I only remember the actor who played this computer expert role is Jagdeesh.

Think about computers being used by advoctaes in year 2000. Nothing wrong , as that was the time when comps popularity was peeking. This happens in Kerala, famous advocates firm has some 8086 based computers (with big 'dabba' for CPU).
In the cinema, one of the partner advocate is checking something in the files (paper files) and then anxiously looking at the computer screen.What is the great thing which he is checking in computer screen?.Another point to be noted here is the partner advocate is hitting only 'enter' key. Nothing wrong here too , as one can use 'Enter' key for scrolling some DOS Bases spread sheets( such as LOTUS 123). The dialog which this guy delivers at that time is "Check the address with thier madras office". Normally one will think that this guy is checking some address details in Computer.Next scene , knowingly or unknowingly director this time has a shot which clearly covers the computer screen. There one can see whats the advocate anxiously checking. Its nothing but list of directories in C Drive. :) :)
Movie : Harikrishnans
Director : Fazil
Actor : Mammootty

Let me detail another color of the Comedy ( 'by-product comedy' - copyright JCGEORGE) in another cinema.This time too suprisingly , its related to Software and to be precise, on Image Processing.
A traffic policeman , whose wife is running a computer center. This police man is described as a 'Excellent Computer Engineer' in this cinema. Everyday after signing the attendance , vanish from his official duty and go to his wife's computer center.
This policeman is part of the investigation team. He was asked by his Superior police officer (hero in the movie) to test a blood stain is original or fake.Now in the cinema , we will be shown a scene of a computer lab wherein police officers look at the computer and computer software ( I will tell which software was this) correctly tell that this is a real blood stain. I think this police office should have the capability of customizing microsoft paint ,as the blood stain picture is shown in MS Paint with a Text in Bold letter ( blinking!...) that its real blood stain.
This police officer too deserves an award from microsoft for the customization/modification he has done on MS Paint which even bill gates too might not have though about.

Talking on Cinema is real fun. You know , I forgot to mention that I am gonna speak about Malayalam cinema that too Cinema comedy.Not the comedy inserted by the script writer or director into the cinema, rather about the by-product comedy of serious / normal scenes in the cinema.I am not responsible if readers interpret this as a cheap criticism :) :)
Well lets start with the latest cinema and further take you backwards till 80s (thats the time when I started watching cinema seriously).
One of my favorite themes in Cinema is Crime/Family Stories based on Computer!.In my observation , most of the comedy ( by-product comedy!) is based on computers.Actors being very good IT Professionals, act too smartly in scenes from where IT Professionals like me can take wonderful ideas , which I think if we implement will fetch Millions of dollars!
Let me start with one such great idea, to be precise, its on image processing. By getting rear view of a solid (in Cinema its a persons head), the software will predict its other side. Interestingly in the cinema , the hero claims that he developed this for NASA.( I hope this actor would have been having a internal longing to become a software professional). I wonder why NASA requires this software .May be they wanted to create a full 3D image of an alien , whose photo is taken from the satellite :) :). This movie's name is 'Indraprastham' and the director is Haridas.Hero is none other than Mammootty.
Also in this cinema ,there is a song based on the theme internet .Starts with "Dekho Simple Magic, Internetting Magic , Manichithra melaappu...." which means , Look at the magic of Internet , its like a beautiful decorated roof.
