BRO-rigination

Barney Stinson, the "Casanova",the person responsible for causing an entire season of controversies, books, blogs, facebook "SUIT-UP" events and generating quite the business for CBS. After seeing tonnes of series and its complete seasons over and time and over again, what came pretty apparent was that "Barney Stinson" ain't any radical that they stumbled upon.


A mere progression from one successful cast character to simply another one. I guess the evolution starts from the discovery of "Patrick Maitland" of Coupling (2000-2004). Patrick is a successful businessman and is very competitive with others in the same business, but he does have a vague sense of loyalty to his friends. A guy with a narrow opinion of women, or a "one track mind". He is good at courting women and collects videos of nights with his girlfriends in his rather large "cupboard of love."


"Patrick" was taken to the next level by "That 70s Show"s character 'Michael Kelso'. A dumb-witted fool who gets off by his looks. He has been pretty lucky "in the sack". He has had a series of off & on relationships with 'Jackie Burkhart' which initially prematurely ends as he cheats on her with numerous other "skanks". But goes on to sleep perhaps with most number of girls in the series and practically floats by nothing apart from his good looks. He bypasses adolescence the first in the series as he impregnates a girl over a one-night stand.


Warner Bros. Television tapped this source and incorporated in the famous sitcom of all times, "Friends" and tried this phenomenon with 'Joseph Francis Tribbiani'. In Season 1 they experimented with the witty, smart, casanova, but as the season progressed they realised that the audience prefers the sweet cocktail of dumbness and playboy. For the rest of the seasons he was a loyal and  true friend but just kept getting dumber.


BARNEY STINSON, the CBS production and mark of absolute awesomeness had been ensued as risky business. But it all turned out for the best with his "Lemon Law", "Suit up" and other insanely bizarre rules, the audience just could not have enough of his charm. Everybody tuned in with an intent of hearing Barney's statements rather than see where the story led up to. CBS even tested with him in a relationship with Robin Scherbatsky, something which severely destroyed the "BRO"ness entailling him and was called to an end so that he could continue being the single guy that he is. After all, he is "awesome" at it ;) 


To end the day, all I'd say, Barney Stinson, the notch above notches of various Don Juans, classy, charming and witty. The perfect CBS creation.

Future:Here We Come!!!!

Us human beings are extremely curious creatures.
God gave us everything and asked us not to touch an apple tree and we couldn't resist, we knew it would lead to doom but still we risked it, and why? Cause we cant resist the slightest temptation.
We have excelled in every field or every cause which was created by God. But TIME remains untampered with and untouched like the purity of a saint maintaining sheer abstinence from all worldly pleasures.
Unable to conquer the one thing that keeps on eluding us, keeps us on our toes, keeps on making us ponder, cause if we knew the future whose going to work for today?!!!
Unable to win over the unconquered we use our own imagination..as in let it run wild to paint us a picture of what the future might look like...

It started with the novel called "TIME MACHINE" by H.G. Wells , where he describes for the first time how he travels through time to see the world change rapidly in front of his very own eyes, and how it changed into something where humans are no longer capable of taking charge of the situation.

Next came along STAR WARS, the movie that created history at BOX OFFICE. A movie which portrays humans and aliens co-exist in a world where good is still competing with the DARK FORCE..where Jedis are pioneers of good,in command of fighting against the Dark force and free from worldly pleasures,"the ONE" Jedi fails to follow the rules and turns into the PROTEGE of villains in Hollywood AKA DARTH VADER.

Then came along STAR TREK, where in the distant future a spaceship with unimaginable technologies (like-warp drive, teleportation and so on and so forth) ventures out of the solar system to locate alien life forms(like borg) and loses touch with Mother Earth. Only to trace back its way to earth through surprisingly strikingly variant events.

JUDGE DREDD portrays a dystopic future, where urban areas have grown into mega cities that cover entire coastal regions, the justice system has evolved to a single person invested with the power of police, judge, jury, and executioner: the Judge. Among the Judges of Mega-City One, Judge Dredd is one of the best, and a particular favorite of the Head of the Council, Judge Fargo. But there are evil forces at work in the Justice Dept: block riots and the escape of Rico, a homicidal maniac, are only steps in a plan that ultimately lead to the sentencing of Dredd for a murder he didn't commit. And Dredd must discover the secrets of his own past and survive to stop the evildoers .

Then we had TERMINATOR the series,It has been ten long years since a Terminator failed to kill Sarah Connor and her unborn son, John. Now, Skynet has sent back another Terminator. This one being more advanced than the last one. John Connor, who is now ten years old, is the target. The future John sends back a replica of the Terminator that tried to kill him back in time to 1995. It's Terminator vs. Terminator.A fight of good over the evil,where the good succeeds.

ROBOCOP,a movie where a very capable officer Alex Murphy gets killed on his first day of patrolling Detroit-now a crime ridden city by feared gang leader Clarence Boddicker.He is then replaced in a cybernetic soldier by OCP scientists where he serves of great use,but when his own life's memories star rt surfacing he gets obsessed for seeking revenge.

I,ROBOT..a movie where robots are made to help man..but then the robots lack self-conscience and draw a conclusion which involves human bloodshed in order to achieve PEACE AND PROSPERITY.The creator of these robots was successful in making a robot whom he used to call his son,this robot was a class apart as he was one with a conscience and he found the whole plan very inhumane.This robot along with the assistance of WILL SMITH, help in destroying the heartless plan of world peace.

I AM LEGEND..A movie where only one man survives when a massive virus outbreak occurs which turn humans and all other beings hostile and alienic and light intolerant,one man survives to make a difference.

Paycheck,a John Woo classic where Ben Affleck works as freelancing physicist for companies and after every job his brain is wiped clean of the time duration of his job,so that the company can patent his works without involving him in it.He develops a machine which gives him a peek in the future,but he realises if man sees the future then there will be no looking forward to it,the curiosity of knowing what the future has will no longer be a mystery and there will be no hope.He realises the blunder and devises a plan to destroy the machine and at the same time wriggle out of the loop he's put himself into.


All these movies have one thing in common..their heartfelt desire and attempt to unravel the future, to pretend information that is being witheld from us.The writers are trying their level best to give us some food to satisfy our curiosity but what they do not realise is that this is instead food for thought,and they are merely whetting our appetite. Appetizers are done with, we are hungry, we want the main course and we want it bad!!!
That's why they say:
Stay hungry,
Stay foolish....
