Angels & Demons

If you haven't watched this one yet, don't even bother. This is the worst of the summer movies so far. X-Men is way better.

I haven't read any of Dan Brown's books, but I kinda liked the first one. The second one was so predictable & boring. People who have read the book, said the book was far better. As always very few adaptations come close to the book, most miserably fail. Angels & Demons for sure is in the miserable movie (adaptation) category.

Star Trek definitely not this year's Iron Man

Wanted to watch it on IMAX, but got delayed. So decided we go for another movie. We even got the tickets for the another movie (which I shall not name here), but in the last minute exchanged it for Star Trek. 

Got the tickets and the seats w/o any hassle.  I had imagined a lot of people will show up, but that wasn't the case. Dark Knight was packed and we had to sit in the front rows to watch it - that is after we reached the theatre an hour before the show. This time reached 1/2 hour before and still got to sit at the very last row in the theatre (near the projector) and didn't even have to stand in line to get to the seats. Also a bunch of people walked out of the movie while it was playing. I guess they were die-hard fans who didn't like this version.   

The reviews are good for the movie and someone even called it 'this year's iron man'. It's not. It's a decent movie but IMO cannot be compared to Iron Man. Although I will end by saying it is better than X-Men Origins Wolverine. 

I just hope the other summer movies - Angels & Demons, Terminator, Transformers, G.I Joe live up to expectations...

Working on Seam these days

Currently working on a new product to enable migration/deployment of configuration data. Sounds simple, doesn't it. Trust me, it's not. I am primarily working on the data model, and User Interface. 

Seam is being used with JSF, RichFaces, and AJAX4JSF (a4j). More thoughts on Seam and my struggles soon...

Tough times

Tough times right now. The company has already laid off twice. If we don't do well this time, they will likely do it again when they announce the 2nd quarter results. So it's like working in a contract position where the contract expires or extends at the end of every quarter. 

@Atlanta,GA

I am currently working out of Atlanta, GA. I moved here over a year ago. 

It still works...

Didn't think this would be active after this long. Came here to look up a post I wrote a few years ago...

Now that I am into active development again, I will try to post more often... Will see, how this goes...
