As I’m writing this, I have come to realize that if you watch an episode of Glee with absolutely zero expectation, you will actually enjoy it. Or maybe the writing is better this season. For now. I was pretty surprised how good this episode is.
Movie Review: Into The Woods
I have to confess that, even as a musical fan, I have not heard of Into The Woods. GASP! Does that make me a bad fan? Anyway, I came into the theatre with absolutely no expectation on how well the movie adaptation is. All I know is it has an ensemble of well-known actors and I expect each and everyone of them to be able to sing since it’s a damn musical.
I must say that I’m truly impressed.
Love It Or Hate It: Maroon 5 – Sugar Music Video
How can an artiste upped the ante after Katy Perry crashed birthday parties for her “Birthday” music video? Become wedding crashers! Which is exactly what Maroon 5 did, to the surprise of the brides and grooms.
Or is it?
Music To Your Ears: Taeyang – Prayer
Per my last Music To Your Ears post, I watched BigBang on TV and the rest, as you know, is history – I am a VIP. As I am still discovering their music as a group and individually, I found this gem of a song by Taeyang called “Prayer” and it’s been looping in my head for the last 12 hours – can’t get rid of the song, can’t get rid of the images of the video. Basically, this girl who never sleeps can’t function.
I mean, look at this!
How can a red-blooded human being like me not flail at the sight of those abs? *internal flailing*
Love It Or Hate It: Avengers: Age of Ultron Trailer 2
Oh wow, so many things happening in this trailer, I am actually speechless. I have literally no words to describe it.
TV Episode Review: Shameless US Season 5 Episode 1 – Milk of the Gods
This is my new favourite show. I was introduced to it because of Tumblr’s endless gifsets of Ian Gallagher and Mickey Milkovich, the couple they call anti-Klaine – the very thing Kurt and Blaine from Glee is not.
So, I decided to watch the show and now here I am, reviewing it.
Love It Or Hate It: Sia – Elastic Heart Music Video
More than 26 million views in 3 days – that’s a lot of views and in my honest of opinion, worth it.
Many might not know but Elastic Heart, Sia’s new single, was actually a part of the soundtrack of The Hunger Games: Catching Fire. So, for me, the lyrics to the song represent Katniss.
However, the song can be interpreted in many different ways and not just as the song for the girl on fire. And the same can be said of the official music video.
Some called it paedophilic and controversial while some called it art. I’m in the second group.
TV Episode Review: Glee Season 6 Episode 1 & 2 – Loser Like Me/Homecoming
Before the season began today, as someone who follows fans/ex-fans of Glee on Tumblr, I read a number of spoilers that made me promise myself never to watch Season 6.
I broke that promise for a couple of reasons: 1) To keep this blog active, and 2) To get back to writing TV episode reviews again (I don’t think I will be going back to writing recaps anytime soon though.)
Clearly, I hate myself today to be watching the first two back-to-back episodes of the final season of Glee.
Let me first start with Episode 1…
Movie Review: The Theory of Everything
We all know who Stephen Hawking is. Who doesn’t, right? But the general public probably don’t know much about his personal life and that’s when this movie comes in.
Music To Your Ears: K-Pop
(Also known as “Big Bang”)
(Also known as “How Did Siti Even Get Into This?”)
People say “curiosity killed the cat”. But in my case, curiosity didn’t kill me but it just gave me one more thing to fangirl about and to include in a list of things I hyperventilate over.
