I really don’t get it. Sure, a movie can have a horrible plot, and all the same, be fun to watch (even just to jeer at). If this weren’t true, why would the Twilight series have so much box office success? Badum ting! (Pantomime drum and crash cymbal)
Today, I will be reviewing the series reboot of immensely successful sitcom, Two and a Half Men, which was and still is a very frequent topic due to the chaos that ensued after Charlie Sheen went on his lengthy war with Warner Brothers.
Last week I went to see the movie Colombiana, starring Zoe Saldana who plays a girl that seeks revenge for the death of her family. She trains to be an assassin in order to hunt down and kill the people responsible and she also hunts down people that she and her uncle feels are a…
I thought the series was over, but I was wrong. When I first found out about this book, part of me was upset because I’m getting too old to be reading books from this series. The other part of me could not wait to get my hands on this book. Basically Jason wakes up in…
Okay, so I wish there was a sticker for this (it’s not the healthiest thing to eat y’know!) ‘cuz I think this meal is more frightening than a donut burger! The other day, I was quite famished and found myself standing at the KFC booth. My friend and I decided to try the Double Down…’cause…
This week’s TV spotlight is on a TV sitcom called Curb Your Enthusiasm. It stars and was created by the one of the co-creators of Seinfeld. This TV show started on October 2000 and revolves around a fictionalized version of Larry David, who he portrays himself. In the sitcom and partially in real life, he…
Last Saturday, I went to go see the Sneak Peek premiere of new movie The Smurfs. It was quite an interesting experience. When I got to the entrance, there were three big security guys that had to check me for my phone and any other recording devices, which I had to place into a paper…
I recently read Plague, the third instalment of the Gone series, and I must say this series just keeps getting better. If you have not read the previous books in this series or my reviews of them, this review probably won’t make much sense. Basically the town is running out of water so Albert (who’s…
Just last year I discovered a Canadian (can I underline that word enough times?) artist who is made of pure talent and is downright incredible. This 28-year-old singer/songwriter has wowed audiences all across Canada with her songs that echo with folk, country and blues vibes and her lyrics which speak with pure honesty. Such an…
This weekend I was one of the very fortunate, and excited, Calgarians to go to the Calgary Stampede. But on the down side, I missed the parade this year (summer school). Nonetheless, the Stampede was extremely fun. Except for the fact that I’m now short on money. By a lot. You couldn’t possibly do everything…
When I first encountered Fluevog shoes, they were at the art gallery-style store in downtown Vancouver. I was instantly taken by the signature oddball heels and the strangely elegant appearance of the clog-like collections.
Who doesn’t love a good musical that has a stellar plot, interesting characters, and talented actors? Wicked has won the hearts of millions around the world, both book lovers and fine arts fanatics. As one of the longest running Broadway shows in history, it can hold up on its own as the book and the musical…
I first heard about this book from the Calgary Herald and soon learned about the hype it got in England. Knowing little about the book, other than the fact that half of Europe was going crazy for it, I decided to pick it up and give it a shot. The book is basically a journey through…
[youtube fyMhvkC3A84] For those of you who <3 Coldplay, watching this video will remind you of Strawberry Swing with a 2011 edge! What a brilliant song and video. Check out the new Coldplay single: Every Teardrop is a Waterfall on the YouTube clip above. It’s perfect for summer driving, picnics, daydreaming and holding hands in…
Created by two Calgarians, Angel Guerra and Angela Diones, the Market Collective has been a thriving community space that showcases local artists, artisans and musicians. This year was MC’s third year anniversary, yet it was my first time at this two-day event. I was super excited to go on Sunday and was able to see…
