90210- It’s Getting Hot In Here

5 02 2011

As Adrianna digs herself deeper into a deep, dark hole, it seems that everyone else’s relationships are also falling apart. Girls weekend out anyone? Think that will make everything better? Or worse?

This episode is full of it: make-ups, break-ups, hook-ups, and backstabbing. Scandal anyone? Cousin Emily shows us what she is really made out of. Enough drama to fill you up until the next episode. And, hey, I know I can’t wait.





The Kings Speech.

29 01 2011

My girlfriends and I decided to go to a movie last Wednesday night to celebrate two of my friends (twins)  birthday. And getting there was half the entertainment. Two buses, some odd characters, and a run across a rather large parking lot was probably the most fun I’ve had in a while. We were late, but it being a Wednesday night, we weren’t worried about the theater being crowded.

Movie Ticket: $12. Bottle of water: $3.50. Fun with friends: Priceless.

The Kings Speech

Directed by: Tom Hooper

Starring: Colin Firth, Helena Bonham-Carter, Geoffrey Rush.

I went into this movie knowing nothing about it, other that it was nominated for an award. While watching it I understood why. The movie follows the story of the stuttering King George VI of Britain and his rise to the throne before World War II. Colin Firth, who plays King George VI, gave his best performance I have seen. He successfully portrays an accurate stutter throughout the entire movie, which must have been rather difficult. The movie was surprisingly funny and heart warming.

I am glad I chose to go to this movie, over the numerous “rom-com’s” that are out right now.

I give this movie: 4/5 stars.





90210- Liars

25 01 2011

Season 3 Episode 12.

So it’s finally here: new episodes! Yay! And now I realize that I have forgotten half of what happened before the break.

What do you think it would be like to come home to a psychotic stranger in your house? Well, now Naomi knows. Which is probably something she wish she didn’t. Mr. Cannon sure blew, and now he has Silver involved.

Oh, Annie, Annie, Annie. Must you have every boy in the box. Your love triangle is getting a little skewed. Your blowing off your boyfriend to sleep with his half-brother in your adoptive brother’s bed. That’s a mouthful. And now annoying cousin Emily is coming over to ruin your perfectly twisted day.

In the last episode I squealed like the little girl I am when Teddy and Ian hooked up on the back stairs. Sneaking around like Matt Damon (watch the episode and you’ll get it). Now, is Dixon going to come along and spoil their secret relationship?

Speaking of Dixon, his and Ivy’s relationship is less than on the rocks, it’s falling off (literally). Here’s hoping that they can patch it up.

Another love triangle, in the same show, I wouldn’t be surprised if we saw a love octagon coming soon. Navid, Silver, and Adrianna you three are in an even bigger mess than Annie. Here’s another mouthful for you: Navid and Silver hooked up at Adrianna’s party, Navid promised Silver that he would break up with Adrianna ASAP, too bad Adrianna is in crisis mode, Navid takes pity on her and decides against his previous decision. It’s O.k Navid, Silver’s held up elsewhere anyways.





The Fearless Vampire Killers.

24 01 2011

The Fearless Vampire Killers (1967)

Directed By: Roman Polanski

Starring : Roman Polanski, Sharon Tate, and Jack MacGowran.

Synopsis: Inquiring Professor Abronsius and his assistant, Alfred, go in search of vampires in a small Transylvanian village. While the two stay at a small Inn, Alfred falls for the Inn-keepers beautiful daughter, Sarah. She, however is kidnapped by Count von Krolock, who happens to be … a vampire! Professor Abronsius and Alfred decide to rescue her from his castle before the unthinkable happens- she, herself, is turned into a vampire. The two are most definitely fearless, but also unfortunately stupid.

First of all, may I say that this is just about the most awesome title for a movie ever. However, it is sad that the actual movie does not convey the same amount of awesomeness.

It’s Saturday night, and what do you do? Of course, watch a movie. And this one just happened to be the one chosen off my 50% full PVR. In all the hype of the amazing title, I expected it to be a better than washing dishes (which I was doing while watching it).  About fifteen minuets in I was thinking to myself, that if the title did not have the word ‘Vampire’ in it, I would have no idea what was going on. Described as a 1960′s ‘Horror Spoof’, it fell short of funny. I must admit that it did have its moments though- props for the suggestion of a gay vampire.  All in all, the ending was probably the best part of the movie. Not because it was ending, but because of that much needed twist. And I’ll leave you with that.

I give it: 3/5 stars.

I will admit that I did enjoy it far more than recent ‘vampire’ movies (I’m talking to you Edward Cullen).
