These violent delights have violent ends / And in their triumph die, like fire and powder, / Which, as they kiss, consume. (Romeo and Juliet, Act 2, Sc. 6)
I usually see movies that I like several times while they’re still in the theater; that’s nothing new. However, I haven’t seen a movie twice on the [...]

these violent delights have violent ends
14 Sep
um, new moon? yeah. holy crap.
So I was getting a bit ambivalent about New Moon. I’m tired of hearing about Rob Pattinson and Kristen Stewart and their torrid, star-crossed affair. You know, the one they’ve both flatly denied. Repeatedly. (And she’s been dating the same guy for, like, six or seven years.)
But no. The tabloids and the rabid Twifreaks refuse [...]

so gi joe didn’t suck
Believe me, nobody’s more surprised than me.
After I saw the first full-length trailer a few months ago and caught a glimpse of the accelerator suits…yeah, I kind of lost all interest in seeing it, even though I was a huge fan of the cartoon growing up. My brother and cousins and I had all the [...]

on upcoming movies
Edited, ’cause I got Avatar mixed up with The Last Airbender. Thanks, Candace!
I did a pretty good job at keeping up with movies this summer. I saw all of the big blockbusters except for Up (which I still plan on seeing, except it’ll probably have to be on DVD) and I also saw My Sister’s [...]

true blood vs. twilight
On Friday, radio talk show host and political commentator Laura Ingraham guest-hosted for Bill O’Reilly on The O’Reilly Factor. One of Bill’s regular features is his Back of the Book segment. In this particular installment, Laura talked to Anne Rice about the recent popularity of vampires, and whether that was a good or a bad [...]

anticipation
Can’t believe this is fan-made. And now I’m anticipating November 20 even more than I already was. Will definitely be taking K&M to see this at midnight. (It’s the Friday before Thanksgiving break — their mom will let them miss school. Yes, I am the coolest aunt ever.)
Five months and 12 days…

first official new moon trailer
I should’ve come up with a more compelling title, but I’m going on five hours of sleep over the past two days, my eyes are about to slide shut, and my brain is mush. So I figured “first official new moon trailer” was better than, you know, “GUH. AMAZING.”
Because it is amazing. Kristen Stewart looks [...]

montepulciano
New Moon director Chris Weitz has opted to shoot the pivotal Italy scenes in Montepulciano rather than Volterra based on what he feels is the former’s cinematographical advantage over the latter.
I think only the most crazed of the Twilight fanatics will even notice.
Some random pictures, including the much-anticipated reunion scene…

new moon in pictures
I must say, I think I’m anticipating the New Moon premiere (November 20, for anyone living under a rock) much more eagerly than I did the Twilight premiere.
It could be because of a new director (not that I didn’t like Catherine Hardwicke, but I really like Chris Weitz), but it’s probably mostly the 60% more [...]

peter facinelli talks fame & the famous birthday party scene
This is a really fantastic interview. I really didn’t know much about Peter Facinelli before Twilight other than his role as a ginormous douche in Can’t Hardly Wait and that he’s married to Jennie Garth, but I genuinely like him. He really is the perfect Carlisle Cullen.
Also? I can’t wait to see that birthday party [...]
