Black Swan

I already knew I was going to love this movie before I watched it. Any movie about Ballet I love!


I have to say though that this one was awesome! It wasn't cheesy like most dance films and Natalie Portman was amazing!





Mila Kunis, on the other hand, was not so great. Her acting was good, but when she danced you could really tell she was not a ballerina.




Which is my biggest pet peeve, when actresses pretend to be ballerinas and fail miserably. Natalie was able to pull it off beautifully!

It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia Season 1

This is my new favorite show! Why has is taken me so long to start watching it?


It. Is. Hilarious!!

The Other Guys

Loved this movie! So many one-liners, it's hilarious!

Dexter Season 4 on DVD

Love ya Dext!

So You Think You Can Dance Season 7!

My absolutely favorite show is back! And my absolutely favorite dancer is back!


Love me some Mark!

The Big Lebowski

Oh my God, this movie is hilarious. Albert and I watch it and pretty much laugh the whole time. It is definitely a movie you want to own, it gets better every time you watch it.

Jeff Bridges is SO good in this, he will always be THE DUDE.





Here is the plot from IMDB website:

When "The Dude" Lebowski is mistaken for a millionaire Lebowski, two thugs urinate on his rug to coerce him into paying a debt he knows nothing about. While attempting to gain recompense for the ruined rug from his wealthy counterpart, he accepts a one-time job with high pay-off. He enlists the help of his bowling buddy, Walter, a gun-toting Jewish-convert with anger issues. Deception leads to more trouble, and it soon seems that everyone from porn empire tycoons to nihilists want something from The Dude. Written by J. Lake

Jeffrey "The Dude" Lebowski is the ultimate LA slacker, until one day his house is broken into and his rug is peed on by two angry gangsters who have mistaken him for Jeffrey Lebowski, the LA millionaire, whose wife owes some bad people some big money. The Dude becomes entangled in the plot when he goes to visit the real Lebowski in order to get some retribution for his soiled rug, and is recruited to be the liason between Lebowski and the captors of his now "kidnapped" wife. Written by Alex Barron

Dude Lebowski is met by two mobsters wanting repayment of a loan that he knows nothing about. This simple case of mistaken identity entangles him into a complex kidnaping plot. Written by Mike Arndt

The Dude and his bowling buddies (Walter and Donny) find themselves doing Philip Marlowe's Job in this complicated story that owes a lot to The Big Sleep. Written by Peter Macfarlane

Precious

I can't believe I almost didn't watch this movie. I thought it was going to be another one of those "teacher helps kid in rough neighborhood" type of things but boy was I wrong.

This movie was disturbing, powerful, painful, sad and inspiring all at the same time. If there were ever a movie that could affect you and reach right to your soul, this one is it.

Yes, it's sometimes hard to watch because what happens is just so unbelievable but it is worth it. Warning, the mother in the film doesn't shave her armpits or legs, very gross!

This is also a show that my mother would never ever watch. It's got the F word right and left but I believe it needs to be that way, it shows how harsh some characters are. And Mo'Nique's Best Supporting Actress Award is WELL deserved. She is incredible, especially in her last scene.

I think everyone needs to see this movie, well everyone that can handle it.

Warning: You will cry.

Big Love Season 3 on DVD

Who wouldn't love a show about polygamy? I especially love it because it is filmed in my state, who knows, maybe I'll be in the background one of these days. Or an extra! I could be one of the wives at the camp. I'd french braid my hair with a bump-it and everything!

This season especially has so many Mormon references. It's interesting to watch and see how many they actually get right. Hey, I think I just came up with an awesome drinking game there!

Yep, the angel Moroni is on top of the Salt Lake Temple! Take your shot!

Gossip Girl Season 2 on DVD

Oh no she di'nt! It's so nice to have the Gossip Girl drama back in my life. This season EVERYONE is cheating on EVERYONE.

It's the best.

Fargo

I heard that Fargo was very similar to "Burn After Reading", and since I loved that show, I had to check out Fargo. It's based on a true story that happened back in the 80's. It is a dark comedy about a kidnapping gone wrong and the pregnant cop who investigates the case.


Oh. my. gosh. it is hilarious!


It's a lot darker than "Burn After Reading" but even funnier! Is that a word? I loved it!

Law Abiding Citizen

It's about a man who's wife and daughter are murdered and the killer was put on trial but a plea bargain sets him free so this man decides to take the law into his own hands.

It's one of those shows where you're not quite sure who is the good guy and who is the bad guy. It's a really good show with a smart plot and plenty of shocking moments, including one that made me pee a little. I loved it, however the ending was a touch on the cheesy side, but that's just me, my husband didn't think so.

Grey's Anatomy - Season 6

Spoiler Alert!





007 dies and Izzy doesn't? I thought for sure Izzy was going to be killed off the show. I used to like her a lot but she's kinda buggin me without George there. I miss George and his quirkiness. We'll see how the rest of the season pans out.

Rescue Me - Season Two

I am in love with this show. I'm hooked, I've got all the seasons waiting in my Blockbuster queue.

Read about it here.

Dexter - Season 3

What's not to love about an intelligent, handsome & charming serial killer? The hubster and I love this show!

Michael C. Hall is just an amazing actor, I loved him in 6 Feet Under and I love him even more in Dexter. Jennifer Carpenter, who plays Dexter's sister on the show, is not my fav. And it totally bugs me that they are married in real life. He could do so much better!

Yeah, I think blondes are more his type. Freakishly tall blondes.

So You Think You Can Dance Season 6

I am so happy it's back already! SYTYCD two times in the same year? Can it get any better than that?

I don't think so. Life is good.

Inglorious Basterds

I really liked this movie! Brad Pitt was hilarious. Of course I don't think the show is considered a comedy but it had a lot of funny parts. I love how Quentin Tarantino incorporates the flash backs when introducing characters. It was very well directed and even if you aren't a fan of Quenton's work, you will like this anyway.

It's just shocking and funny and witty and charming in a way. I loved it. I'd definitely see it again.

Take that Hitler!

Tori & Dean Inn Love

Told ya I'm obsessed with Tori Spelling. I am now renting their first reality show Tori & Dean Inn Love. She is hilarious people, how can you NOT love her?

So You Think You Can Dance Season 5 Finale!

SPOILER ALERT!


Oh my gosh I'm in love with this show! I want to marry it and have little dancing SYTYCD babies! Or at least hump it.



The finale was awesome! I was so happy Janine won, I was rooting for her! Seriously when she dances I can't keep my eyes off of here! Kaiyla is my second favorite and I think she was robbed! Evan should have been fourth, we all know it's true.



Kaiyla is just amazing, I mean check out the picture below! Look at those feet, I would die to have those arches! She should be a ballerina, she'd be awesome in toe shoes!



(No I am not overdoing it with exclamation marks, SYTYCD deserves every single one!)



My two favorite choreographers, Sonya Tayeh & Mia Michaels. These women are amazing. Does anyone else think that when Sonya was on the judging panel during the auditions that watching the dancers was giving her orgasms? I'm serious, did you see her? Yep, she was. Not that I blame her, I'm just jealous.

True Blood

So I've been reading Charlene Harris's vampire series and have been dying to watch the HBO series that was created from the books.

I think this is the first time ever that I like the movie/tv series better than the book! I wasn't sure I would like the girl who plays Sookie, the main character, but after watching the first few episodes I think she fits perfectly.

Y'all should watch it! And I say y'all cause they talk with an accent. My hubster was watching a little bit of it with me and said,

"Who would have thought of a hill billy vampire movie."

Hmm, who woulda thunk it!

So You Think You Can Dance

Yeah baby! It's back! I hope it's as good as last season!
