Beauty and the Beast (2017) Trailer Reaction

Image
Remakes have started to run their repetitive course, but one studio might have found the secret. Disney's reinventing their classic animated princesses into live-action heroines, and the results have been fairly good so far. Maleficent cast a spell on the box office and Cinderella dazzled audiences. Next on their plate is Beauty and the Beast , and I for one cannot wait for 2017. I'm probably fairly biased. Belle is my favorite princess from Disney - both the classic 1991 animated movie and ABC's network show  Once Upon A Time . She's a bookworm, intelligent, kind-hearted, curious, and friendly. With the new release of the trailer, I'm even more excited to see another version of her tale.

October Geeky Faves

How was everyone's October? Hopefully not as rough as November has been so far. I hope you had a boo-tiful and fun month celebrating Halloween and getting in the holiday spirit. Here are some of the things I did, and some I hope to do throughout November too. Dressed up as Matt the Radar Technician - probably one of the best times of my life! It was really a night I'll never forget. In conjunction with going trick or treating at Disneyworld, I led a small guess my contest series on instagram. Thanks to everyone who played along! Ya'll are clever smarty pants. Prepared for The Walking Dead premiere - Even though the hype and speculation had been known since the summer, I just wanted to grab my funkos close and drown myself in orange crush and pudding when the first episode aired. Which is pretty much what I did. Owl It To Me I'm Worth It - *shameless plug* One of my (all-time?) favorite designs I recently added to my redbubble . Read The Martian - It was a ...

5 Reasons You Need To Watch What We Do In The Shadows (2014)

Photo Credit: What We Do In The Shadows / Madman Entertainment Throughout literature, television, and film, vampires are typically presented as horrifying and tantalizing creatures of the night: dark, brooding, waiting to feast on innocent people. Hidden under centuries of scary (and humanizing) lore, What We Do In The Shadows  brings to light just how funny vampires can be. I hadn't heard of this movie but had seen the fandom for it flourish all over Tumblr. Not knowing much about the flick, something propelled me to check this out as soon as I could. And it totally does not disappoint! In fact, it's pretty much become my latest obsession. I dare say the same thing may happen to you.  Here are 5 Reasons You Will Really Love  What We Do In The Shadows.

Matt the Radar Technician Cosplay at Halloween

Despite being a massive geek, I was never really a Star Wars fan. Not that my mom and sister didn't try to influence my disinterest over the years by watching the films and going to the conventions, as I grew up with the first era of early 2000s installments. But the Disney and J.J. Abrams's reboot changed my enthusiasm. And I guess you could say Saturday Night Live played a big role too. When Adam Driver hosted the weekly sketch-comedy show, there was one clip I was totally obsessed with: Undercover Boss. The skit has Darth Vader's grandson Kylo Ren posing undercover at Starkiller Base as Matt the Radar Technician. Certain lines like "Kylo Ren is a punk-bitch", as much as I thought it was creative and funny. The entire skit became a fandom of mine ever since it aired. Immediately, the video inspired me to make this my Halloween costume. I'm not sure there's ever been another costume I was so determined to complete as much as possible.
