Cool Down With AC – Agatha Christie’s Three Act Tragedy Discussion

Last night, Masterpiece Mystery aired Three Act Tragedy, the first of the Agatha Christie Hercule Poirot Series 6 movies. The series will also include The Clocks, and Hallowe’en Party. As part of the Cool Down with AC read/watch-along, I will be viewing them as well as a Miss Marple mystery a little bit later in [...]
Water for Elephants – Movies Trailer & Algonquin Books
I am on a roll with the bookish movie trailers. I posted the trailer for The Help on tumblr, so I am going with the other big movie for my blog. Is anyone planning to see this, this weekend or at all? What I love about the trailer is that it is very much like [...]
Atlas Shrugged Part 1 – Movie Trailer
Trailer #1 Atlas Shrugged: Part I at MOVIECLIPS.com Did anyone know that they were making a movie out of this? Talk about literary movies and books that are chunksters. Depending on which edition you get of Atlas Shrugged, you’re looking at about 1350 pages of reading. Charles Dickens had absolutely nothing on Ayn Rand. [...]
Thor – Movie Trailer
I watched the trailer for Thor a few times because quite frankly I had no idea what was going on. First it seemed to be modern and possibly having something to do with present day Afghanistan, and then it seemed ancient. I finally figured out that it will probably exploring Norse god Thor being kicked [...]
Hanna – Movie Trailer
The trailer for Hanna reminds me of The Bourne Identity, where one person, in this case a little girl, can take down entire departments of the government. It looks like a movie that I have seen many times with many different actors, but I like the combination of Cate Blanchett and Eric Bana here. I [...]
Bones, Vamps & Other TV Scamps (3)
Bones ??? The question marks are because I am trying very hard to figure out what show this is I am watching. You would think that I would have a big rant after last night’s debacle, but I have nothing because I don’t even know what show I am watching and after last night, I’m [...]
Planet Green’s Conviction Kitchen

Conviction Kitchen airs Friday nights (that’s tonight) at 10PM EST on Planet Green. Planet Green is quickly becoming one of my favorite channels on cable television. Just the fact that they have The Fabulous Beekman Boys goes a long way toward endearing them to me, but now I have discovered that they also have Marc [...]
Bones, Vamps & Other TV Scamps (2)
My tv after the last Season 6 episode of Bones! Bones Ack. I have read things around the net, and this is just one of them, that have me mad about this show. The idea that Hannah and Brennan are showing “a positive friendship between strong women” is just nonsensical. I should really stop reading these [...]
Vanishing on 7th Street – Movie Trailer
Don’t get too excited. I’m not really here. I’m off this week spreading holiday cheer and you know…eating. So movies are taking over the blog for the next few days. Specifically movies that I want to see in ’11. We’ll be back to more or less regular programming on January 1st. If any of these [...]
