Many people couldn't associate with TZP? And why would couples prefer TZP over romantics? Biggest audience is the college crowd. Consider the demographics.

Is this is a joke? No seriously.Is this the best we can pull off? I am shocked with movies like Partner & Welcome even being in that list, leave alone the fact that Partner was a blatant rip-off.Wait pardon me, it's inspired as they call it in India for copying.

Overseas ratings have never fancied me anyway as it's been Yashraj's forte all along.I guess we have a long way to go before originality concept is learnt & cliche is ditched.

Nah, welcome was a BIG SUPERHIT. Personally, I found it crap...but it was a BIG BIG BIG hit, as you can see in the list!!! How did it manage to get so much money I wonder!!! Singh Is King is also crap, but it'll be a big money generator.

A BlockBuster doesn't mean a good movie.

A flop doesn't mean a crap movie.

Normal Indian public only want Naach-Gaana and time pass....

Read this article by Mayank Shekhar, written about the so-called "hits".
http://www.mumbaimirror.com/net/mmpa...80ee&sectid=42

Here's an excerpt which sums it up:
Quote:
Box office numbers merely register how many entered excitedly into a theatre. It doesn’t tell you how many of those retained that excitement while coming out.

The game is all about warming up seats on the first weekend, the marketers tell me. Exactly. Nobody will want to come back another day. Who cares?

^^Watching a movie at its release is a NO for me. Let the hype settle down after one month or so and then see how much it packs.

Well said, though i dont think TZP is that good.(not in my top 10, def in my top 5 recent indian movies though).
Nowadays, u either get a 100% commercial or pseudo-social message sending movies or a thorough serious movie. I'd happily settle for smwhere in btw these.No offense against "serious movies",but i see "art" movies only when i'm in a part. mood.
