Choke

I must admit I have been going to some great movies lately. Last night I went to see Choke, the movie based on the novel by Chuck Palahniuk, the writer of Fight Club. I haven't read the book though it is on my To Be Read list as I got a free copy at a book fair I went to a month ago. The movie was... Sign in to see full entry.

Life on Mars

Thursday after Grey's Anatomy, Life on Mars premiered. I was looking forward to this show until I watched it. The show started out strong but towards the end I was losing interest. ABC has been known to come up with some good shows, but it isn't this one. Detective Sam Tyler is investigating a... Sign in to see full entry.

ROCKNROLLA

Today a friend and I went to see the new Guy Ritchie movie, ROCKNROLLA. I knew the movie was going to be one where you really had to pay attention or you might get lost. This movie was great. It sort of reminded me of Pulp Fiction. All of these characters that have their own story lines and lives... Sign in to see full entry.

Possible SAG Strike

So after a couple of quiet months there are rumblings of a possible SAG strike. We all remember the Writer's Strike that cost the industry lots of money and even some people their jobs. The Writers Guild, Directors Guild, American Federation of Television and Radio Artists have been able to get a... Sign in to see full entry.

Battle In Seattle

If you go see one movie this year, go see Battle In Seattle. I heard about the film last week when Writer/Director Stuart Townsend was on Good Day LA, a local morning news program. After seeing him on that show and talking about the film, I wanted to see it even more. Then I got an email saying that... Sign in to see full entry.

Grey's Anatomy

I was so excited when the previews were airing for Grey's Anatomy. The preview had so many shockers in it, I made sure I had nothing going on last night. And once again the writers delivered. The show was filled with heartache, happiness and plenty of drama. All of the characters have new story... Sign in to see full entry.

Emmy Broadcast

I was debating whether I was going to watch it or not but I got home from work and found myself watching the whole thing. There were some funny moments, like Don Rickles and Kathy Griffin. And Ricky Gervais trying to get his Emmy back from Steve Carrell. Steve has a way of playing serious and you... Sign in to see full entry.

Heather Mills

Heather Mills was being interviewed to appear on the new season of Celebrity Apprentice by the show's producers. It would have been interesting to see her on the show and see what she could do but America will not be able to get that chance. According to reports Ms. Mills had a number of demands...
