I would pay money for you to do that dance and post it online.

[Drunk Monk]

How much money?


Hey now...times are tough. Don't be all judgey. 

I wish I could dance like that...:-(

[Greg]

I could bring you a nice bottle back from Ireland.

It might even have Whiskey in it. Might.

Start rounding up the Ninja hotties to do the BG.

[Drunk Monk]

OooOOoooh, now we're talkin

Sadly all the ninjettes went underground during the pandemic. And I'm too old and broken to hunt down fresh ones, or to do that wicked Naatu Naatu dance step. Gotta be young...like these kids...

[Greg]

You could totally do that.

Some people might say my life is in a rut
I'm quite happy with what I got
People might say that I should strive for more, but
I'm so happy I can't see the point

[Drunk Monk]

You could totally do that.

Ya know, maybe... It would be cool to bust it out at some festival dancehall floor this year. Maybe there'll be a flash mob...

RRR trivia = Ram Charan was healing from an ACL tear just prior to shooting the Naatu Naatu dance. NTR Jr recently said his legs still hurt from shooting it. 

so maybe not...

[Greg]

When they played the song at the Oscars, I referred to it as the Nacho Nacho song. The Queen looked at me with scorn as they sang "Naatu, Naatu" Having just watched the instructional video, I'm guessing Nacho Nacho is the Hindi version and Naatu Naatu is Telugu.

[Drunk Monk]

Bro...

Netflix doesn't have it in the original language, much to my dismay. It only provides the Hindi dub (and Spanish & English). The original language was Telugu. That's why it's naacho, but naatu in the original. 

Do you even bother to read my posts? Cuz I'm droppin wisdom here. Pure wisdom. Always.

BTW, it means 'folk' or at least so I'm told, in reference to it being a folk dance.

[Greg]

I'm supposed to read the posts by other people?

I did read it and knew it but the difference was brought home by actually hearing the Telugu version for the first time at the Academy awards

[Drunk Monk]

meh, I don't care if anyone reads me. as long as I get paid.

oh wait...

[King Bob]

I thought it meant dance. That's what the subtitles were saying.

[Drunk Monk]

Grammys 

Props to SZA for the swordfight

[Greg]

Saw that. Thought of you.

[Drunk Monk]

Daaaawwww

That, Tracy Chapman & Billie Eilish was about all we saw. We bailed after that.

[Drunk Monk]

A lot of reviews are calling the sword scene ‘Kill Bill Quentin Tarantino’ 

So annoying. As if QT was the creator of all sword fights.

Saw Miley too. Dislike that song. Overplayed.

Dislike Combs take on Chapman but it worked as a duet. I saw Tracy perform Fast Car live at the Amnesty International concert in ‘88 and nothing compares.
