Yeah I have HDFC card for that discount. So with student discount+HDFC combined I might get same price at a store. But free airpods is a really solid deal tbh, don't think any stores will offer that. I'll call Logix RD and Croma once and see, otherwise proceed on Apple's website. Wish delivery times were faster, it says the earliest is 9th August.

Hey. Looking to buy a Macbook Air for my dad, using my student discount. I noticed that airpods are free with a purchase on Apple's website - same deal as last year when I bought one for myself. Will any physical stores price match this deal, or is this the best option? Buying M1 only, more than enough firepower. I'm hoping to get one quickly, because buying directly from Apple usually takes 2 weeks to arrive. @Bird Bird Birdany insight?

Second that - an absolute page turner of a book. But I didn't know there was a show - time to check it out. Thank you @Ne0

Haven't heard of the former but I shall check it out. Virgin River is def fairly light. Perfect to de-stress. Amazing gorgeous location too.

Okay yeah that should be okay. Dad has multiple cards, even with multiple flights a week he never runs out so should be alright. I only travel once every couple months. Thanks!

Hey. My dad has an account with HDFC and a Regalia card. He mostly uses Axis Bank Vistara Signature card as he flies a lot and travel miles are better for us, so never upgraded Regalia. I don't have a consistent paycheck in college, but have got a Regalia add-on card now. I wanted one for lounge access at airports etc. The benefits are same as regular Regalia card? Any downside compared to individual Regalia card?

Yeah for once I didn't press next and it was mentioned in the ending credits. I'm pretty sure its shot in British Columbia/Alberta Canada. Cannot agree more, its just beautiful. Watching this show is almost like taking a vacation. I will watch with the family, so it usually goes slower but shouldn't take longer than a week! Will also start on Friday.

Yep comes out sometime today. They have started production for Season 5 as well, its on their instagram and twitter. We usually get the season in the summer, so same time next year. I personally haven't read the books but I hope there is enough material for a couple more seasons as I do enjoy this show greatly.

Excited for Virgin River Season 4 to drop on Netflix tomorrow. Great family show, solid writing great plot characters etc. Highly recommend grabbing a bowl of popcorn and watching this with parents, kids, siblings, grandparents. All around feel-good family show.

I would caution anyone to not get over-hyped for this. Yes it LOOKS stunning but Amazon poured an insane amount of money into this. But money can't buy good writing to well done character development. They don't own the rights to the Simarillion - but they are including some things with changed names and changing events a lot. I'm hoping I'm wrong and it turns out amazing, but after Wheel of Time - I'm expecting the worst but praying for the best.

Went and watched The Black Phone at the theatre. I really liked it a fair bit. Noir, horror, thriller - with a kid at the center cuz thats the best way to do it with a very interesting premise. Much better bang for my buck than f**king Thor. @STICK3Rboyit was quite good! I think I've seen like 6 movies at the cinema hall in the past month haha. Would have gone for The Gray Man as well but will netflix it. In this case I have read the book and I think Netflix has f**ked up the source material, per usual.

oh yeah Ive heard those are really good! I've heard good things about The Secret History, by Donna Tartt. and if you want to pick up an episode series of mysteries - the Arliss Cutter mystery books by Marc Cameron are really good.

Yoooo those are some crispy shots. awesome! @Bird Bird Birdhave been a bit out of loop this year, but I think you'll find most people recommending Sony when it comes to mirrorless. Full Frame is more expensive of course, but the A7R range has sold super well and is just a very reliable option.

I own a Sony A6000 camera. Only have the kit lens, don't have any additional equipment. Haven't used it for quite a bit now, plus I now own an iPhone 12 so covered in terms of casual pictures. I'm thinking the A6000 is a bit old now, even though my own has seen little use. Should I sell it off, and free up some money? I plan to go on a few trips later this year, will buy something newer then. Will cost more but I should be able to afford it then.

Also watched Thor this weekend, pretty much echo your thoughts 100%. They went with a non-serious joking narrative for the first 2/3rd - while it was fine I was at least entertained but the last act just lost me - trying to be serious will not have any weight. Christian Bale would've played a solid Voldemort - that is all I have to say Will not be going for further Marvel movies unless backed by solid reviews or if its Spiderman. Both this, and MoM were frankly a waste of money at the theatres.

Have tickets booked for Saturday. Logix mall IMAX tickets are 900 a pop. f**king ridiculous Got tix for 300 in regular 3D. Hopefully its half decent. I'd much rather have gone to watch The Black Phone but alas friends

Finally watched the Uncharted movie, yoinked the 4K and it was a good afternoon. Truth be told, I enjoyed the movie. It wasn't especially amazing, and I would naturally compare having played the games - but I've spent hundreds of hours playing as Nathan Drake so it is to be expected that the experience won't be as good with a 2 hour movie. However - it was entertaining, the jokes were funny, the callbacks to the game are there, the chemistry between Nate and Sully is going on the right direction - and most importantly they didn't change the essence of the games. It FEELS Uncharted enough. The plot structure as well as how events usually develop in these games. Looking forward to more movies if they make 'em. 8/10. Also, Nathan Drake bartending - that was new and I like it.

Hahahaha good one but yeah just comparing og Jurassic Park vs the Jurassic World reboo/sequel trilogy

Watched Jurassic World Dominion in IMAX this weekend. If you just want dinosaurs on the big screen, its solid. But as an entry in the series - it is repetitive, has a fair few plotholes, and just has lost the novelty of it all. They're used to dinosaurs now so no one is even scared, half the time they're not even running. Jeff Goldblum is as good as always, however. Maybe I'm old school, but this wasn't it even though the first Jurassic World movie with Chris and Bryce was really good imo. 6/10, recommend watching - but not at the theatres. Looking forward to watching JJK 0 at the movies next weekend.

really? I don't have a sub right now but okay! Is is the free game for June, or part of a catalogue? Have been out of the PS Plus loop since the year started

Looking to pick up a copy for the PS4 - and its more expensive than the PS5 version on amazon ffs Anyone have a better source?

From what I know its based on Joe Hill's (Stephen King's son) story. I've read a couple books by the man and do have faith in the material. If you go watch, do let us know how it is.

tomorrow is final day at theatres - and have snagged a couple tickets at Logix at 2:10 tomorrow, IMAX I actually like Chris Pratt and Bryce Howard in these - hope its fun. Don't expect it to blow my mind by any means of course.

Waited long enough but friends coming back home so will be going to watch Jurassic World in theatres next weekend. Any feedback, do I book IMAX or 4DX?

Oh absolutely. But audible and scribd make the time fly, I'm very happy getting through more books. Its only for 2 months, I'm interning here so I decided just to do it. Will def try and get placed/permanent job in Noida, plenty of offices along the expressway. Don't want more Gurgaon after this man. Highly recommend Warlord Chronicles by Bernard Cornwell - his version of the arthurian tale. The audiobooks by Jonathan Keeble are fantastic.
