*insert theme music here* Alrighty here we go. I originally read the first three A Song of Ice and Fire books right in a row one summer while I was in college. They were bloody, sexy, quite long hardcore high fantasies in every way I love. So of course as each season of the […]
When it comes to adaptations of Agatha Christie novels, my favorites are usually part of the british Agatha Christie’s Marple TV show. More like a group of made-for-TV mini movies, Agatha Christie’s Marple is an updated take on the famous mystery novels. Now, perhaps they are not the most faithful adaptations, in fact the show […]
Ugggggh! Alright, let’s do this. So I saw this movie when it first came out, but I wanted to wait til I finished the book to actually review the thing. And here’s what both made me realize: I really hate Margo Roth Spiegleman. But before I get into that in depth let’s start at the […]
What the fuck were there people thinking? I mean, seriously. This movie is a mess. A hot freaking mess. First and foremost, this movie has the most confusing plotline on the planet. It covers not one, not two, but the first THREE books in the Series of Unfortunate Events series. 3 books, in like […]
Why do I do this to myself? I swear I find myself watching the worst of the worst YA movie adaptations from the past decade. And yet the ones that have come out in the last two or 3 years have all been pretty great. Sadly, today’s pick is one one of the good ones, […]
I was so excited when I heard this movie was coming…and then I never saw it. I just didn’t have time or anyone to see it with (my husband doesn’t watch these sort of films). So when I found out it was on Hulu I waited until my husband went to work, grabbed a […]
When I heard Netflix was releasing an adaptation of Lemony Snicket’s A SERIES OF UNFORTUNATE EVENTS I admit I was a little wary. But wouldn’t you be? After the disastrous mess that was the film adaptation I couldn’t help but feel worried. Especially as I saw that the aesthetic of the show was going to […]
One of my all time favorite webseries in existence is the youtube vlog style adaptation of PRIDE AND PREJUDICE, The Lizzie Bennet Diaries. The Lizzie Bennet Diaries or LBD is one of several series under the blanket of Pemberley Digital and was produced in part by Hank Green of the Vlogbrothers. Though Pemberley Digital […]
This fucking movie. This fucking movie makes me want to scream. This fucking movie makes me wonder what the hell I just watched. This movie has no clue. If you ask me the writers of this movie didn’t even read the book, they maybe scanned it, but they did not read it. Or maybe […]
This movie is so weird. I mean its not bad per se but it’s not good either. Now I’ve only read this first book in this series, and I really liked it. It too wasn’t the best vampire story I had ever read but it was charming and the characters were bad ass and had […]
