Clearly, I Chose The Wrong Career

It doesn’t take much to be called a filmmaker, it seems!

The Babe With The Power Of Hulu

I’m, like, eight million years late to the party but this weekend, I have discovered the joy that is hulu.com.
(For all two of you that may not know, hulu is a website where you can watch select TV shows and movies for free. They also have clips, shorts, and trailers and stuff. It’s amazing.)
Being the [...]

“Why is it that, whenever anything happens, it’s always you three?”

I’m a Harry Potter fan.  While I don’t have a Gryffindor scarf or the knowledge to write a Harry Potter Lexicon, I thoroughly enjoyed all the books and the first movie holds a special place in my heart; the tinkling sounds of the Harry Potter theme reflect the magic of the characters and world developed [...]

Live Long And Prosper — And Please Buy The Toys

I’m going to take a second and geek out here: the husband and I are both taking the day off tomorrow so we can catch an afternoon showing of “Star Trek.”  We were going to see a midnight showing tonight but my fear of Trekkies in costume was too great.
(I went to the opening night [...]

Who Watches the Watchmen? I Do!

This weekend, I saw “Watchmen” and, frankly, I don’t understand what the big stink is; that is, I don’t get why everyone is bitching about the movie.
Personally, I enjoyed the movie very much.  It slowed down during a couple of scenes but, all in all, it was well done and a fantastic story of how [...]

My Estrogen Must Be Low, or, Why I Don’t Have More Girlfriends

Yesterday, I saw “Twilight” with Lobsterclaw.
And I did not squeal or get all mushy or fall in love with Edward.  In fact, I liked all the other Cullens vampires except for Edward and it makes me wonder what all the fuss is about Robert Pattinson and his gigantic wave of hair.
And the rest of the [...]

Horror Movie Madness

Happy 500th post. Or something.
So yesterday was Lobsterclaw’s birthday. I think she turned, like, twelve or something; I don’t remember. In honor of her awesomeness, we sat around all day and did nothing. Well, at least not until later that night.
Also? Do you know how awesome I am?
For her birthday, [...]

“John Travolta used to be a waitress in Fort Myers, Florida!”

I subscribe to Netflix; despite the fact that I can acquire films in certain other ways that are completely and totally free, I’m simply one of those people who enjoys the gag reels and deleted scenes and special features. My queue is all sorts of crazy, containing films like the much-hyped “Juno” to mushy romances [...]

“We don’t need no stinkin’ badgers!”

When I said I had a fondness for bad horror movies, I did not lie.
Sunday morning, I made a resolution to stay in my pajamas all day. I haven’t had a completely empty, boring weekend in quite some time so, dammit, I did what any newly graduated person does: absolutely nothing. Lobsterclaw joined [...]

““Life is a B Movie: it’s stupid and it’s strange, it’s a directionless story, the dialogue is lame.”

I may be a snob in many things — okay, well, maybe not really because right next to my $20 lipstick, I have a Bonne Bell lipgloss and my Coach bag cuddles up with a Target special (and they create babies that are still cuter than any Dooney & Bourke bag) — but I will [...]
