Dapples from Movies & TV: Celeb Sightings

Image
Whenever I talk to friends from out of town, they always ask me if I've met anyone famous. Given that I've lived in LA for almost all of my life, I have to say yes. But then, I can never think of anyone off the top of my head. And I think it's because of this: LA is the home of tons of celebrities. It's their little comfort zone. So, if I see Arsenio Hall at the Pier 1 Imports on Ventura buying throw pillows with his wife (true story), then I don't want to bother them and go on about how much I like their movie/show/blog/record/children's name. Let them be and live their lives like any normal, non-star/celebrity. That's how I would want to be treated if I were to become an international superstar. HOWEVER, they are still everywhere and with this blog, I will document the celebs that I see around town. I am not Gawker or Defamer(*RIP) and will not note precise details like time of day and intersections and all that. Not that there's anything wrong with t...

Procrastination Station: Video Style!

As you may have noticed, I tend to post things that help me procrastinate from work/daily life. To make myself feel better, I thought I'd try to at least be organized about it. So, whenever I have a video or game or whatever to share and procrastinate with, I'll put it under this Procrastination Station heading. (I know that technically, EVERYTHING that I post could be considered procrastination material, but that's neither here nor there.) It's not much, but hey, I've got to do something other than take care of Lil' Miss Hiccup and watch "The View" . And not necessarily in that order. File this under: Things I Wish I Had Enough Patience To Do. Cool mashup of "Toy Story 2" and "The Dark Knight" Trailer.

Okay, So You Tell Me...

Black Denise Richards? OR... White Gabrielle Union? What do you think? Maybe it's just me...it's more apparent when they are moving. Think about it the next time you see either one of them in their next show or movie.

Oh So True

Pretty funny movie for those who deal with this EVERY DAY!!

Dapples from the Movies - Beginnings and Endings

Movies are a hobby of mine, I guess you could say. I'm not a film school geek, but I can turn a phrase here or there (The color timing on Traffic was great because it helped separate the 3 different storylines throughout the movie). And I watch a lot of movies and television, movies about television, TV shows about movies, etc. A lot. To put it simply, I enjoy watching the picture shows. Plus, my job pretty much centers around it and TV, so it surrounds me all day. Which is great. Anyway, every now and then, I'll have a few observations from the movies or TV shows that I have been watching. Hence, my new series "Dapples from the Movies (or TV)". Just little blogs about what's going on and what I think about them. We'll see how it goes... p.s. I'm just one lady with an opinion, so you know, take it with a grain of salt. Beginnings and Endings Given that we just ended the summer rush of high priced blockbusters and have just begun to get into ...
