My point is Shankar movies are pointless and Rajini movies, more so. From where di you get the idea i was wondering why Shankar didn't elaborate more? I mean, sarakke illadhadhunala dhaan all he has to talk about is songs. "Sivaji will be be talked about and cherished in Indian cinema" - Why? Because the set for a song is made of glass or he has painted an entire village. WTH?? And let's not even get started about the 'script'. Peace loving 'normal' man who wants to change society. 2. Churning out crass films is called evolution?? Soopper... And why this dichotomy between a 'star' and 'good' cinema? So, there is 3. Vijay movies are in the same pedestal as Rajini movies, give or take a few points. 'Charisma', 'gethu' 'power' etc being the difference, granted. Period. Going by point 3, Vijay has directly evolved into the 'high' ground Amen Superstarksa,

Where's your case? I don't get it at all. But I am dumb, so that's my problem. So from where I stand, anyways, I can see 3 different threads. 1. IF you are wondering why Shankar did not elaborate more about the movie, then I have three words for you - "setting low expectations", which is good business sense. 2. IF you are bitching about Rajini not doing more movies like the late 70s and early 80s, its called evolution. Rajini the star has overtaken Rajini the actor. It's sad, but it is natural and its called growth. It has happened with every actor in history and so Rajini is not an anomaly. 3. IF your motivation is to bad mouth Rajini to the benefit of Vijay, this is not the place. "Vijay Saar" has his fans, they have their own place. Please go there. I'd consider it a insult to Rajini if he was compared to Vijay or Ajith (Billa not withstanding!). Rasini: What’s your point? Where’s your case? I don’t get it at all.
