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 [...]

wake me when september comes
(Yes, I know, the song title’s actually ‘when September ends,’ but whatevs, it didn’t fit my purpose like that, so I tweaked it. Sue me. Or, rather, don’t, as I have no money.)
I find it odd that so many Whedonverse fanatics loathe Dollhouse. I’ll be the first to say that yes, the first two episodes [...]

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 [...]

It’s ironic that, while New Moon was tied with Breaking Dawn as my least-favorite book of the saga, I think I’m anticipating the movie New Moon more than I did Twilight.

(say it’s true)

1) I have listened to “Another Heart Calls,” by the All-American Rejects, literally over 50 times since around Thursday and cannot [...]

well played, itunes
So it looks like iTunes sure knew what it was doing by making Paramore’s “Decode” the only track from the Twilight soundtrack available for individual download.
When the lineup was announced a few months ago, I was pretty much ambivalent.
And then I saw the movie.
I just finished downloading the entire soundtrack. It’s definitely worth it for [...]

america’s favorite past time
I took my 11-year-old cousin, Abby, to see Twilight last night after our Thanksgiving festivities.
I seriously liked the movie even more the second time. I was able to pay attention to other nuances (in between answering Abby’s 53 questions) and I still can’t get over the Cullens. One of my favorite scenes is so incredibly [...]

green light
New Moon got the green light, which is probably the most anti-climatic anti-climactic news ever.
(Thanks to Joan of Arcadia, I will always laugh whenever I use that word.)
Anyway, taking a break from a busy day of more Veronica Mars, peanut butter M&Ms and Diet Coke to announce that Twilight accomplished the following things over the [...]

twilight
It has been a lovely weekend. I’ve done nothing but hang around in my pajamas and watch Season 2 of Veronica Mars and all the random episodes of NCIS and CSI:NY that I had stored up on my TiVo before I got rid of cable.
Also?
While nowhere near being anything resembling nutritious, a steady diet of [...]
