Jim Carrey, as an actor, has always been a bit quirky. Ace Ventura and the Mask quite illustrative of his quirky roles. The same could be said of Johnny Depp. Although for both actors, it seems that with their attained success they were given great latitude to become […]
Well, the awards season has reached an end until the fall comes back around. Lots of pastels on the red carpet. It’s like they took a page out of my pink handbook. Going into the evening, everyone noted that the four acting categories were all set. Not much […]
I have a love hate relationship with nane tags. Actually, it’s mostly hate. Actually, it’s indifference with a twinge of hate. I don’t care for them. I usually lose them at events. They never hang or fit right. For some reason, I have found name tags to be […]
Award season is upon us. Well, it seems like award season is year long. However, the “mega” award season is now fully underway with the Golden Globes. Despite last year being a ho-hum movie experience, I saw many more of the movie nominees than the television shows. It […]

Stop the presses. I did something unfathomable. A bit inconceivable. I love that word, by the way. Ever since I watched the Princess Bride, I have been amused by the word inconceivable. I just want to say it in numerous ways placing the emphasis in random places. Try […]
Many moons ago I may have caught the film Sliding Doors starring Gwyneth Paltrow. I honestly can’t remember seeing it but I know the plot fairly well. Then again, it is not that hard to figure out. Two possible life trajectories that depend on whether she makes the […]
This may be blasphemy for some. But here it goes. I like Star Wars, but don’t love it. I’ve only ever seen four films in the movie series, in the theatres. Those being Episode I: the phantom menace (which was horrible); Episode VII: The Force Awakens (which wasn’t […]
