Little Talks

Went to a Tim & The Glory Bots concert this weekend (and most of you probably have no idea who that is, but that's what the Internet is for, my friends) and I felt moved to share this message with all of you. Choose joy this week!

Having mentioned Tangled in my Frozen post, I decided that I needed to do an ode. I love this movie. It has the elements of a classic Disney cartoon, with the beautiful animation of Frozen, and the format of a romance and a fairy-tale and a comedy all in one. It feels so real. I don't even know what it is, but I think it is my favourite Disney movie EVER. It deserved the hype that Frozen got. First of all Flynn/Eugene...best (non)prince there ever was... I will admit that I could do without Mother Gothel's excessiveness, but she is just a glorified Disney villain I suppose... And of course, the animals are your classic Disney sidekick, made better by the realistic fact that they can't speak, and therefore funnier because they must communicate through body language... And how can I forget Rapunzel? The most beautiful and touching Disney love song ever... A hauntingly beautiful magical song... And of course the most tear-jerking scene ever... And t

Yes, that's right...I said " Frozen ". I know some of you are screaming in glee "She's going to talk about Frozen !!! I LOVE that movie!!" while others are thinking "Oh no, not her too. Aren't we done with this movie yet?" I, myself, am probably in the second group. Nonetheless, I have committed myself to discussing everything movie that I watch (as well as every book that I read) and so I must discuss this one as well. Besides, it isn't the worst movie, in fact it is pretty good. But first, some backstory. A few years ago I saw a post from Disney on facebook saying that they were making a new movie called Frozen based on the story of The Snow Queen by Hans Christian Anderson. Yeah, how many of you knew that? It changes things completely, doesn't it? So I saw as the sketches were released, as plots were slowly revealed, and even when the first clip of Olaf and Sven (which at the time seemed completely unrelated to the movie) was final

Justin Timberlake. Mila Kunis. Predictable. Cute. A bit inappropriate. (That last one means R-rated) Anyways, the movie opens with two almost identical break-up scenes that at first have you convinced are the same scene since both couples are dressed almost identically, standing in similar-looking locations, and having the same conversation. As it turns out Dylan (J.T.) is in L.A. Jamie (Mila) is in N.Y.C. Jamie is a head-hunter who gets Dylan an interview with GQ. However, he'd rather stay in L.A. Than move to New York. He is willing to leave his old web design job for this one, except for the location. To convince him to change his mind, Jamie shows him around town, not looking at tourist attractions, but at local life...which apparently includes a flash mob (that will come up several times in the movie). They become friends and decide that since neither of them is ready for another relationship (and they don't seem all too keen on the idea of love, at least not between frien

I  promise that I will try to do one post a day this week since I am so behind. In August (yes, that far behind) I watched Blended with Drew Barrymore and Adam Sandler. I must admit I like their movies, especially 50 First Dates. Every 10 years they make another movie together, and the third of these movies was Blended . I must admit that I was quite hesitant having seen the trailers which contained very stupid humor, besides I was afraid that the modern advertising technique of putting all the funny scenes in the commercials had been employed. Luckily, I was wrong. it was a very cute family movie (with some adult humor - after all, it is Adam Sandler). Basically, two single-parent families end up going on a vacation that belonged to some friends, but it means them sharing the room and activities. The mother of two boys, played by Drew Barrymore, and the father of three girls, played by Adam Sandler, had recently gone out on a terrible blind date and spend the time hating each oth

I know it seems like forever since I've actually posted a "Sunday Sayings" on a Sunday, but I promise to try harder from now on. This time, it was I only because Sunday was a holiday. Speaking of that, happy thanksgiving to all my Canadian readers!! So today's double feature (yes ... another old movie reference; and another double-picture post) is about thankfulness.

So I've been EXTREMELY busy recently, but I'll make up for it by doing the most EPIC Sunday Sayings ever... the hump day edition! (that is not a double entendre, I just wanted to be creative...and maybe freak some people out)
