Diary of a Fangirl: Movie Previews

So, before I saw “The Hobbit,” there were some interesting trailers… “Oblivion”–end of the world with Tom Cruise.  I feel like I’ve seen this movie, but I totally want to see it again.  What can I say?  Tom Cruise fangirl here. “After Earth” –end of the world, which results in the beginning of the world. […]

Diary of a Fangirl: "Thor" and "My Own Private Idaho"

Okay, most of these will be bullet point random thoughts, and I combined them because they do have something in common…I wasn’t expecting that, of course–just a bit of happenstance. Here goes… *Both films deal with rejection of love.  Mikey searches for his long lost mother, while Loki searches for acknowledgement from his father.  Also […]

Diary of a Fangirl: 90s Video Games

Diary of a Fangirl: Keanu Reeves

So, I started to watch “Speed” for the first time in years, and I reawakened my Keanu crush. This whole Keanu!crush thing dates back all the way to the Bill & Ted days, and then this movie came out.  I remember going to see it with my mom, and the buzz about it was tremendous. […]

Diary of a Fangirl: Lincoln

Spielberg’s “Lincoln” was a most excellent film.  I’m not sure what it was that I was expecting going into it, but it was a pleasant surprise.  The movie mostly focuses on the time in which President Lincoln had to deal with the war, and also his determination in the ratification of the thirteenth amendment. Daniel […]
