oh my chad!

In the world of TV…

Lost continues to blow my mind. It’s so freaking good, but oh my how the time frames are confusing my poor brain.

Chuck is consistently funny as hell each week. I know it’s not everyone’s cup of tea, but it always has Aidan and I howling. We were all but rolling on the floor last night at some of the stuff that happened, like when Chuck goes to save the day, but trips and gets his foot caught in a window and breaks it while managing to create a diversion for Sarah and Casey. Priceless! I’m still waiting for Sarah and Chuck to have some hot sex at least once. They both love each other and can’t be together, but that doesn’t mean that they can’t get it on. Sure, it would probably be funny sex rather than super hot sex and it would make for awkward moments later down the road, but that would also make for more funny.

I’m still loving Dollhouse and so far ep 2 has been my favorite. For one, it had a whole lot of Matt Keeslar in it and anything with Matt in it is a good thing. He’s so dreamy even when he’s playing a creepy and super crazy killer. It’s had the strongest Echo story so far in terms of her adapting to her surroundings and doing what needed to be done to save herself since that wasn’t something that was programmed into her. Episode 3 had a bit of that too with her thinking for herself and pushing death in the face of the diva singer who only thought she wanted to die. Episode 4 wasn’t a strong episode all around, but I still found it to be enjoyable because of the other moving parts in the story. Sierra, Echo and Victor becoming a group is intriguing. This can’t end well for them since they aren’t supposed to develop friendships, but I think it’s interesting. I am intrigued as to why they keep sending Victor to Paul when he won’t stop his search for the Dollhouse. I am intrigued by Alpha (clearly alive) and how he’s doing what he’s doing on the outside. Does he have help? Why is Echo so important? Were they friends? Relatives? In love? Me wants to know!

In movie news…
We went to see Watchmen on Saturday and all in all I really loved it. I have not read the graphic novel yet, but I will do so very soon. I was super excited about the film and wanted to hold off on reading it because I didn’t want to compare the two in my head as I watched the film and inevitably not be able to fully enjoy the film. That being said, here are some of my likes and dislikes and yes, there are some spoilers…

another new look

I’ve recently become obsessed with Mad Men (thanks Riikka!) and decided to spruce things up with a shiny new Joan-inspired look last week. It’s simple yet cute like the Brooke theme, but way more girlie.

Aidan and I went to see Underworld: Rise of the Lycans last night and loved it! I loved the first one, but hated the second and that made me a little worried about what they might do with this one since it focused on my favorite character, Lucian. They did him justice though and I adore him now more than ever. Well, I would adore Michael Sheen in a shaving cream commercial, but that’s beside the point. Hahaha! Seriously though, he’s the perfect Lucian. He gives the character heart and really makes you feel for him and I just don’t think the character would be same if another actor was behind the portrayal. On an unrelated Michael Sheen/Lucian note, it was very cool to see how Raze became a Lycan. I didn’t care much for him in the first film because he just seemed like the mean muscle of the Lycan clan, but in this one he’s got much more going on and I really dug his relationship with Lucian. Very cool indeed. I’m a total Lucian/Sonja shipper now too. I loved them together. Such a tragic love story.

I watched My Bloody Valentine 3D twice last weekend (once in 3D and once digital) and can’t wait to see it again. It’s so much fun and was totally made for people like me and Mycah. I love it when directors and writers get things right and actually create something for themselves and the audience. So many horror movies miss the mark when they try to be too serious, too funny, too smart, too gory for the sheer hell of it and the list goes on and on. I much prefer horror and semi-horror films that you can just go and have a good time watching and this is definitely one of those films.

Aidan and I are now anxiously awaiting the new Friday the 13th. I hope it’s as much fun as it looks like it’s going to be.

How awesome was last week’s Lost? So awesome! I am so excited about this season!

good evening gentle viewers

Finally, my first post of the new year. I hope you all had a fabulous time over the holidays. We kept it pretty low key and overdosed on massive amounts of Lost and Gilmore Girls.

I can see why I stopped watching Lost when S3 was airing because it started off really slow. I really wish I’d have stuck it out though because it did start rockin’ again. And S4 was freaking awesome, especially the episode The Constant. I was all but biting my nails in anticipation of what was going to happen next. The one funny thing about re-watching everything from the beginning again is that characters that I initially loved, I ended up not really caring about at all and characters that I was kind of iffy about I ended up just absolutely loving. Upon a second viewing, my favorites are Hurley (always loved him), Desmond (so many amazing layers), Charlie (who knew?) and Ben (so good at being evil). I always liked Hurley because he was like a giant teddy bear that you just wanted to keep with you at all times. He made me and Aidan both cry quite a few times. When Hurley is sad, he makes everyone sad. *pets him* Desmond + Penny = epic love! Henry Ian Cusick is amazing as Desmond and the connection he and Penny have is, well, epic and the damned writers had better let them be together until the end of time. Charlie had his flaws, but all in all, he had a really good heart and was a good person and I really enjoyed watching his story unfold. As for Ben, I didn’t really care for him or about him, but I did enjoy watching to see what nasty trick he would throw out next. He was so manipulative and deceitful, but ended up being honest and helpful at times too. A very interesting mix. Yay for the new season starting soon!
