The Chronicles of Narnia - The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe (Full Screen Edition)

I loved the movie and the effects. My kids and I bought the dvd recently and we have watched it 2 more times.

I Am Hooked! (rated 5 stars)

nobody@allconsuming.net (rilana) — Tue, 30 Jan 2007 00:05:18 GMT

I sort of stumbled upon this show by accident. I began watching episode one of the first season and that was it. I was completely hooked. It’s a MUST see…and I am now continuing on with watching season 2 on HBO.

Not A Fan Of This One (rated 2 stars)

The Twilight Before Christmas

by Christine Feehan

I am a huge Christine Feehan fan. I have read many of her Dark Series books and loved them. What was up with this book? I did not like it at all. The story was boring, the characters were a bit blah. It’s a bit off from her normal writings. But then again…this is just me.

Great Movie (rated 4 stars)

Hope Floats

by Forest Whitaker

I have seen this movie many times. It’s very sweet and I love the “small town” life portrayed on the screen. I aways cry at the part where Bernice is standing in the street screaming for her Daddy not to leave her behind. It breaks my heart. I love Sandra Bullock too.

Meh! (rated 3 stars)

Jersey Girl

by Kevin Smith

The movie was okay. Just okay…
Loved George Carlin as Pop. I thought the daughter, Gertie was cute as a button too.

Love This Book (rated 5 stars)

The Knitter's Handy Book of Patterns: Basic Designs in Multiple Sizes & Gauges

by Ann Budd

I recently received this book as a gift. I have to say, I love this book. It’s so versatile and useful. I also own the Sweater version of this book and I use that one just as often. I recommend this book for knitters who want to create their own patterns or styles of garments. LOVE IT!

It Was Okay... (rated 3 stars)

The Family Stone (Full Screen Edition)

by Thomas Bezucha

This movie was okay. It was an enjoyable watch, but a bit odd too. I am still trying to figure out what the point was, really. I did love Sarah Jessica Parker. She’s great.

Big Girl Knits : 25 Big, Bold Projects Shaped for Real Women with Real Curves

by Jillian Moreno

I love this book. It has helpful hints for the plus sized girl. Also, the patterns are very nice and catered to the larger woman. Love it!

A story about "Obsession"

nobody@allconsuming.net (rilana) — Sun, 03 Sep 2006 05:10:25 GMT

Obsession

by Katherine Sutcliffe

Ok, the book is not horrid, or anything. It was a fascinating read. I did have some issues with the book. For one, the book was written by the male perspective mostly. It did flip flop a bit between persons. Also, the book did not have the least bit of romantic situations. It was more of a tormented love/hate type of story between two past lovers. Also, the male character was ridden with guilt and rightly so. I felt it was focused on more than it should. I don’t know…the book was good, but certainly not what I expected when I thought I was reading a sweet, romantic story on a Saturday night.

Hilarious Time

The 40-Year-Old Virgin (R-Rated Fullscreen Edition)

by Judd Apatow

I sat down on the couch thinking this was going to be a mildly funny comedy about a dork guy trying to get his “freak on.” I was very suprised to find this movie was actually good. I laughed through the entire movie. It was hilarious to see these obnoxious guys give this poor 40 year old virgin advice on how to get layed. My favorite scene was when “Andy” got his chest waxed. I almost fell off the couch laughing so hard. It’s a must see for fun and laughs.

A story about "The Skeleton Key (Full Screen Edition)"

The Skeleton Key (Full Screen Edition)

by Iain Softley

The movie was pretty good, I thought. It was not really very scary as far as horror movies go. I thought it fit more into the category of thriller or mystery. I enjoyed Kate Hudson’s performance. She was likeable. The ending of the movie was a tad confusing at first. I had to sit and think on it…”Oh, okay!” Overall, I enjoyed the movie. It makes for a good DVD rental.

A story about "The Perfect Man"

The Perfect Man

I thought the movie was rather sweet and cute. I enjoyed watching it, for a saturday night dvd. The gay bartender was a hoot. Overall, a cute romantic comedy.

The Smashing Pumpkins - Greatest Hits

by The Smashing Pumpkins

I love this album. It has all of their more infamous songs. I am glad they added “Eye” to the mix. Great collection for any Pumpkin fan.

A story about "You've Got Mail"

You've Got Mail

by Nora Ephron

I enjoyed this movie a lot. I love Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks together in romantic comedies. It’s the same magic as with Sleepless in Seattle.

A story about "Underworld (Full Screen Special Edition)"

A review of "Blow (Infinifilm Edition)" (rated 5 stars)

Blow (Infinifilm Edition)

I was riveted with this movie. I started watching it at 11pm and had planned to head off to sleep not too long after. I ended up watching the entire movie, despite ending at almost 2am. It was a great story, if not a bit sad.

I Love [With_Teeth] (rated 5 stars)

nobody@allconsuming.net (rilana) — Thu, 29 Sep 2005 04:55:06 GMT

With Teeth

by Nine Inch Nails

My favorite band is NIN. Downward Spiral was the best album…but I have to say With_Teeth is a close second for me. I know every word and find myself absent-mindedly singing along. I love it!

A story about "Sex and the City"

Sex and the City

by Candace Bushnell

I adore the television show, but hated the novel. I am not recommending it. Blegh!

This album came out when I was 15. I have loved it since. I still listen to it. My favorite DM album of all time.

I love this album. I can listen to it over and over…and I must sing along.
