A story about "The Sex Bible: The Complete Guide to Sexual Love" — 2 years ago

WORTH CONSUMING!

Go get this book. RIGHT NOW. This very second. I’m not done reading it…not even halfway through, but I just had to stop to tell you this. Go get this book. RIGHT NOW!!!

I can’t even do a proper review, it’s that amazing. Perhaps when I recover from the sexual high, pure connectedness and unadulterated passion that this book propelled me to this weekend, I might be able to legibly write something.

If I was to compile all the sexual knowledge that mankind has attained over the years from everyone in every single sphere, it wouldn’t even fully complete the scope of this book. Just reading it makes you horny—-that’s how good it is. The pictures are amazing, the ideas presented in a fresh new way, and the techniques are straight forward and not that difficult to master.

All I have done was read the first 2 chapters and I had the most passionate and connected sexual experience that I’ve ever had in my life. I’m not saying that it’s not because of this book. It’s mostly because of my fabulous and gorgeous man, our wonderful relationship and of course my extremely passionate self;) But there is something in here for everyone, men, women of all races and cultures. Even I picked up so many tips, tricks and ideas…all in the first twenty pages.

If you want to learn more about every sphere of sexuality, from toys to talking dirty to dildos to tantric sex and massage techniques…from dressing up and fantasies and flirting to getting down and dirty….from menages to improving your stamina to all the positions that you could do…from what to do to put your mind in a sexual frame and how to have multiple orgasms every single time you have sex—-then this is the book for you. No matter where you are on the sexual spectrum, it will enable you to take things to a whole new level.

For those of you who feel you know everything there is to know about sex and don’t need some 20 dollar book to tell you anything—-then you will be missing out. Even the pictures evoke feelings, ideas and emotions you never knew you had. That’s how provocatively sexy it is. It’s a great coffee table book and conversation starter as well.

They don’t call it the Sex Bible for nothing. Once you read, let it marinate and put it to practice, you will become a sex god/sex goddess. Order it now. You won’t regret it. I promise. It has the Vixen Stamp of Approval. Ten out of five stars….all the way.

A story about "Not Too Late" — 2 years ago

WORTH CONSUMING!

When given the opportunity to review this, of course I jumped at it, being a total Norah Jones fan. The first single was a hit on iTunes, and I was looking forward to something along the same lines of her previous albums. Not Too Late did have the wonderful melodious voice that is NJ’s signature, yet for me, it lacked the emotional depth that is often expressed in all her songs. The hodgepodge amalgation of different topics that she sang about didn’t allow me to connect fully as I normally do.

Usually I can listen to any of her albums all the way through without skipping any tracks however in this one there are a few tracks that I just had to keep skipping over. I guess I’m just not on the same page. Rosie’s Lullaby, Wish I Could, & Thinking About You are my personal favorites. There are a more wonderful tracks on this album though, so I’m glad I have it in my collection.

For ranking this album with her previous efforts, it comes in last place for me. However, as a stand-alone ranking I would have to give it props for the wonderful acoustic soothing feel and her beautiful voice.

Album dropped January 30th, check it out yourself and let me know your thoughts.

Shattering the Myth — 3 years ago

WORTH CONSUMING!

I’m reading this book right now by David Zinczenko, the editor-in-chief of Men’s Health magazine. The book analyses a survey done on 5,000 people on what their views are on men, love, relationships and sex. The answers are quite candid, totally eye-opening and for me this book has successfully shattered all those dumb myths about men.

Take for instance the myth that men don’t fall in love: According to the survey, they do, deeper and more intensely than most women’s concept of love. Most guys were head over heels in love with their first love, and when their hearts got broken, they built the rest of their experience on trying to avoid such pain ever again.

Okay, I’m not done with the book, just half way through, but I’ve read enough to rave about it to all of you. Go get this book right now! It’s an easy yet extremely scintillating read. On every single page, I found something that made me either laugh out loud or nod in full understanding.

Each page had snazzy blurbs to keep it a fun read, here are a few examples

Say This, Not That!
Say This: I’m so glad to be finally home!
Not: Work was awful and I’ve been in a bad mood all day
Because: Like you, he wants reassurace that you’re happy to see him. (awwww!)

Male Mysteries Revealed: 54% of men say family is what defines them the most.

What It Means When:...He’s still friends with his ex more than a year later
Take it as a positive that he’s a good man, not as a negative that she’s a threat. If their breakup didn’t cause permanent damage, then chancess are that, one, he’s mature enough to let relationships eveolve’ two, he probably treated her well during their time together’ and three, he didn’t screw around on her. All good.

Wondering Woman asks: Why doesn’t he go down on me more often?
If you lie back quieter than a college library on Friday night, he’s not going to know what you make of oral sex. Groan, moan, yell “more” then tell him later that you’re dying for a repeat performance. Once you open your mouth about what you like, he’ll open his.

Every single topic we’ve talked about on this blog is covered, as well as subjects that are considered too intimate to share. Like how do guys really feel about penis size? And why do they have to play Joe the toolman when they don’t know how to use a hammer? Why do they miss the toilet? What’s the deal with guys & cheating? How does he really feel about your body?

It’s a refreshing dialogue with no holds barred responses. The answers are straight from a guy’s perspective—-straight from the horses’ mouth. There are several examples of relationship questions (in the Dear Abby format) with answers given by Zinczenko as well as direct quotes from all the 5000 guys that took the survey.

In addition, the questions focused on are from a woman’s perspective because they also interviewed women as well to ask them the same questions from the other point of view. This book is for both genders and successfully crosses the great divide.

Go get this book now. Right this very second! It doesn’t matter whether you are single, in a relationship or married, it’s an important read for everyone. Trust me, this is one of those books that you will be glad you read.

A review of "Mission - Impossible III (Two-Disc Special Collector's Edition)" — 3 years ago

Tom Cruise returns as Special Agent Ethan Hunt, who faces the mission of his life in “Mission: Impossible III.” Director J. J. Abrams (“Lost”,” “Alias”) brings his unique blend of action and drama to the billion-dollar franchise. Super-spy Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) has retired from active duty to train new IMF agents. But he is called back into action to confront the toughest villain he’s ever faced – Owen Davian (Philip Seymour Hoffman), an international weapons and information provider with no remorse and no conscience. Hunt assembles his team – his old friend Luther Strickell (Ving Rhames), transportation expert Declan (Jonathan Rhys Meyers), background operative Zhen (Maggie Q), and fresh recruit Lindsey (Keri Russell) – to travel the globe pursuing Davian and rescue Hunt’s love, Julia (Michelle Monaghan).

First of all I just have to say that for the whole ENTIRE movie (well except for a quiet 2 minutes) I was at the edge of my seat. This movie should really be named Action Possible because it blew me away.

Alias lovers will be able to pick up the talented mastery that JJ Abrams put in to pull this off. There where alot of moments that I was having Alias flashbacks especially with the super spy theme that it had. If Mission Impossible was the foundation that built the franchise, MI:2 was the filler that tied it all in, then MI:3 totally set the roof on fire. This is one of those sequels that just keeps getting better and better.

Without giving any of the plot away, the story was utterly riveting, fully captivating and action packed with all kinds of fight scenes and of course technologically advanced weaponry. You got to see how those masks are made on site and Hunt finally found a criminal that he couldn’t easily outwit. There are plot twists all over the place and the main characters were multi-layered.

The actors did an awesome job, Philip Seymour Hoffman was the perfect villiam, Ving Rhames was his usual smart cracking sidekick, Laurence Fishburne proved once again that he’s not just Morpheus and Cruise proved effortlessly why he’s still box office gold.. The supporting characters did their thing as well, Maggie Q kicked major butt in a fight scene (it’s in the deleted scenes…why???)

This 2 disc edition is super packed with juicy commentaries, behind the scenes footage, 8 featurettes that explore everything from the creation of the mission franchise to a montage dedicated to Tom Cruise and his M-I ways.

So…is there going to be a Mission Impossible 4? That I don’t know, however if this really is the end for the Ethan Hunt saga he went out with a bang!

If you liked the other Mission Impossible movies, shows like Alias or other action movies like i-Robot, Matrix etc, then this is definitely another one for your collection.

MI3 comes out on DVD on October 30. Grab your copy:)

A review of "Save the Last Dance 2" — 3 years ago

WORTH CONSUMING!

Continuing the story of the original film, Sara (Izabella Miko) follows her dream and becomes a student at Juilliard. As she is excels and becomes a star pupil, Sara becomes torn between her love for traditional ballet and her passion for the urban street rhythms of hip-hop, complicated further by her new love, hip-hop musician Miles (Columbus Short). When pushed to make a choice, will she follow the path of the tried and true or will she take a risk and dance into uncharted territory?

I absolutely loved this movie. I didn’t think I would, being that it was a low budget sequel and none of the original characters from the first movie were even in it, however the director filled all the holes with an interesting plot that is strong enough to stand on it’s own. You can actually watch this movie without having even seen the first one…there was a short scene that had enough background information to build up the main character Sara. The movie picks up a few months after the first one left off, with Sara moving to Juilliard to study ballet and become a prima ballerina.

The dance scenes were HOT! There is so much music and dancing here from classical ballet to urban hip hop dance. Sara danced her ass off! She rocked both types of dance hardcore, I found myself actually believing that Isabella Miko could succeed in true life in both. Music flowed through the whole movie with a beautiful tapestry of hip hop woven into every prominent scene. The intergration of ballet with hip hop was amazing—- a fusion of moves that I never would have expected. The conflicts between the characters were predictable enough, however there was a plot twist that left me actually surprised.

The main characters were pretty well-developed and secondary characters had enough color to bring something more to the film. Ne-Yo had a small role (thankfully he didn’t ruin it.) Her roomie is a riot! There were some moments in the movie that were contrived/destroyed by bad acting but overall the actors pretty much nailed their parts. Miles’ apartment was off the chain, I want that apartment!

The extra stuff in the DVD was pretty tight too. There’s an interview with the actors/principals I found out that filming was done in 21 days…21 days people! Considering everything that was done, they did an amazing job. If you are a fan of the original, or movies like Take the Lead, Honey or Step Up, then this is another one for you. The DVD came out October 10 so snag a copy!

A story about "Warsworn" — 3 years ago

Not as good as Warprize but definitely a good filler book until the third and last in the trilogy comes out.

She's the Man ---and the Girl! — 3 years ago

WORTH CONSUMING!

Amanda Bynes proves that girls can do anything guys can do in She’s the Man. The laughs are non-stop when Viola (Bynes), disguised as her twin brother, Sebastian (James Kirk), joins the high school boys’ soccer team and helps win the big game while unexpectedly falling for Duke (Channing Tatum) the hot star forward. Viola discovers that dealing with high school politics and twisted love triangles is a major challenge when you’re a guy who’s really a girl! From the writers of Legally Blonde, She’s the Man features an ensemble cast of up and coming stars and hit songs from OK-Go, The Veronicas & the F-ups. It’s perfect for good-time fun!

I jumped at the chance to check this movie out because I didn’t get to see it in the theatres. It’s an adaptation of Shakespeare’s the Twelfth Night, and actually is pretty well told and sticks well to the original. For a Shakespeare adaptation, you would think that the plot would fall flat on it’s face (as seen with the debacle O) but that is not the case here.

The casting was superb, with Amanda Bynes doing a great job acting both as Viola & Sebastian. For the ladies, we have alot of eye candy, with Channing Tatum’s steamy bedroom eyes walking around shirtless for half the movie. For the guys, we have those sexy teens strutting around in cheerleading outfits and some sports thrown in.

It’s a high school movie, with some soccer thrown in to amp it up a bit. The characters were very well defined, each having active screen time and had an interlacing backstory that filled out nicely with the plot. The plot flowed quite well together and even had some genuine laugh out loud moments.

This movie is highly recommended for those of you that enjoyed 10 Things I Hate About You, Save the Last Dance and other films of that type.

Man Camp----a Possibility? — 3 years ago

The premise of this book sounds pretty good, educate men on the alpha male tendencies that civilization has stripped from them. It was hard getting into it though. I found the scenes really jumpy and the dialogue quite mundane. There were some interesting ideas and plot twists thrown in to mix it up, but all in all, not something I would choose to buy.

Perhaps it’s just that as I kept reading, one thought kept going through my mind—-You can’t change a man. It’s a futile effort. Just accept & love him the way he is or move on to find someone that you can love him just as he is.

A Classic Tale of Pushey--Pulley — 3 years ago

Even though this was touted as a romantic comedy, for some reason the premise of this movie didn’t sit well with me and I refused to see it in the theatre. When given the chance to review it on here, I jumped at it, even though my initial wariness was still there.

The plot is as close to what you see in the trailers, and without leaving any spoilers the story ends in your normal Hollywood ending. There wasn’t much drama or excitement, but then again, it’s a rom-com, so what do you expect? The ends were tied up very neatly and the plot leaves you satisfied with the ending. I felt that the whole angst part went on for waaaay too long. “Tripp, get over yourself already,” I kept wanting to say! As for Paula (SJP), her pity party went on for way too long. It’s really not that serious considering everything else going on in relationships to factor how they met as such a colossal and monumental catastrophe. Jeez. Cry me a river.

The storyline actually reminds me acutely of Hitch but without the funny aspect that Kevin James & Will Smith brought to that movie. Don’t get me wrong, there were some moments that were definitely funny, but I felt that the humor was contrived and over-done. The whole “nature is against you” theory was a creative way to throw in laughs but felt to me kind of off.

I thought the actors showed much substance in their acting, and Sarah J. Parker did her thing! Even the sub-characters were very well developed and played integral parts in the story.The overall acting was very cohesive. There is alot of drool worthy moments in both Bradley Cooper and Matthew’s visage without a doubt.

The DVD features alot of extra features thrown in there to be worth you while. There are several funny clips with the actors in Real Time and an expose that explains the Failure to Launch pheomenon.

If you liked Hitch, Wedding Planner or How to Lose A Guy in 10 Days then this is definitely another one to add to your collection.

Her Master & Commander — 3 years ago

I wasn’t really that impressed with this book. Reeves was by far the best and most developed character, and he’s the friggin butler! The whole ‘sheep’ thing got on my nerves. Christian even showed more depth than the hero Tristan. And honestly the heroine was kind of annoying. Uugh! I just am not as sold on this new series. I’ll probably read Christian’s book before I give the final verdict though. For a first book in a new series, I don’t think it packs the Ooomph necessary to make this one a must-have.
