Diary of a Fangirl: The Avengers

I saw this movie back when it came out, but I kinda want to see it again.  Preferably in IMAX (screw you, 3D). It’s true–I’d prefer Edward Norton to Mark Ruffalo, I didn’t get why a dude with bow and arrows or a chick with a gun would matter, I’ve never see “Thor,” and I […]

Diary of a Fangirl: Ted

So Sunday, I went to see two films at two different theatres on two opposite sides of town (long story).  Now initially, I had no intention of seeing “Ted.”  I love Seth McFarlane–seen him on Real Time a few times, but I can’t stand that damn Family Guy.  But the more trailers I saw, the more […]

Diary of a Fangirl: "Magic Mike" Premier Party

While it’s true that I was able to go to an early premier of “Magic Mike” in Chicago (and honestly, I may go see it again…I wish it were in IMAX), last Sunday night (June 24th), a good friend of mine, Perdell, who’s doing it big out in L.A., was able to go to the […]

Diary of a Fangirl: Michelle Obama

Oh, the First Lady… There are many reasons why I love her–she’s intelligent, beautiful, and epitomizes grace and class–things that cannot be bought or augmented. OMG, I’d LOVE to play her in a movie… I also love her for totally superficial reasons–those arms!  The fact that she’s five eleven like me, or how we graduated […]

Diary of a Fangirl: Amber Benson

In 2008, I was living in L.A. for a Columbia writing program at CBS studios.  One of our outings entailed going to the Writer’s Guild of America to hear some speakers, and in the elevator, who did I run into of all people? Amber! She ran into the elevator with me and a few friends, […]

Diary of a Fangirl: Buffy the Vampire Slayer (the movie)

Fangirl movie edition! I remember I was about six years old, coming out of a movie with my Aunt Joann and seeing this poster on the wall in the hallway of the theatre: I remembered being intrigued, and excited to see the film at some point.  I don’t remember what movie I had just seen […]

Diary of a Fangirl: Curb Your Enthusiasm

I discovered Curb Your Enthusiasm in the seventh season, I believe.  I’d heard how great it was for years, but what had finally compelled me to watch it was the faux Seinfeld reunion that came about in…s6 was it?  Anyway, I watched the show, and fell in love with this awkward as hell, forthright asshole that […]

Diary of a Fangirl: Joel McHale

Last year was the first time I went to San Diego Comic Con, and I met and saw a slew of celebrities.  Some I cared about; some I could care less about.  However, one guy I did meet is on a show you may have heard of called The Soup, which I love, or Community, […]
