Guilty Pleasure 102: Breaking Dawn

Did I preorder this book so that I could receive it the day of release? Yes. Did I read the book within 24 hours? Yes. Did I vocalize my shock over some plot twists while reading it in a room by myself? Yes. Did I think this was the best book of the series since the first? Yes. And did I love this book? YES!

Guilty Pleasure 101: Step Up 2: The Streets

I am a total sucker for dancing movies, but, as I was telling my friends, with dancing movies it typically necessary that you ignore story lines and acting abilities and only pay attention to the numerous dancing sequences. The climatic “street” dance is awesome (I mean, come on, it is in the RAIN). So, if like me, you can overlook all aspects that make a movie good, then you will probably like this movie, too.

My Newest DVD: Spaced

I am noticing that the DVDs I have bought lately have all been British. Hmm, interesting. Anyways, my latest purchase is the BBC series, Spaced. Spaced is about Tim and Daisy who are faking to be a couple so that they can rent a couples-only-apartment. Their crazy neighbors and friends join them in random plotlines that are rife with pop culture references. I think the moment that fully fell in love with this show was when they paid homage to the most unknown movie that I know of, but have loved since I was 4-year-old, Bugsy Malone. The show is one of the first collaborations of the same guys that made Hot Fuzz and Shaun of the Dead. So, if that same type of humor appeals to you, I highly recommend this show.
