In which Fucking February is no more. #ROW80 #IWSG #NaNoPrep Whut. Does the term “Fucking February” offend your delicate person? HAVE YOU EVEN MET ME.

Oscar Prep is making me feel dirty.
Oscar Prep #2 Forty-two films were nominated for at least one Oscar this year. Which is cool, because, you know, 42 is the answer to Life, the Universe, & Everything. Douglas Adams much?

Oscar Prep #1: Oscar Noms

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences announces which films are nominated to receive an award – a gold statuette called an Oscar. My sister and race to see as many nominated films as possible before the […]
In January I did the things. #ROW80
I finally saw Maleficent and I am REALLY angry.
I finally saw Maleficent. I have mixed feelings. Pro: Maleficent was gorgeous. The fairy land was lush. The creatures were beautiful. The way they moved through the air like floating in water created quite an ethereal quality. Angelina Jolie perfectly portrayed the wronged heroine / evil villain. Her cold, sharp features were exaggerated to display […]
Classic Oscars #1 – #Oscars #ClassicOscars
Welcome to my new series: Classic Oscars. Reason #1 for Classic Oscars: Because the regular Oscar season just isn’t long enough. It’s true. Oscar nominations are generally announced toward the beginning of the year, and the ceremony is then held by March. That’s a mere three months at most to try and see well-over twenty […]
