Hello my lovelies of the interwebs!

Look it didn't take me a month to post another post! Woot!

So the big news of the day is that the new James Cameron movie, Avatar, or as I like to call it: The movie where James Cameron thought of what if Smurfs and Thundercats fucking and reproducing would look like and came up with the number one action movie ever! finally is the number one movie of all time! Beating the other James Cameron movie that was in that place before it, Titanic.

Now I haven't seen Avatar because 1) I don't have money to see it in 3D because apparently that's the only real way to see it because I am broke and 2) I'm really kinda boycotting it even though everyone says it didn't end up like everyone thought it was. I may eventually see it, but only time will tell!

Speaking of Avatar, my lovely Twitter friend Joe a.k.a @PopCultureZoo, also the author of the website Pop Culture Zoo (which is a kick ass site! Please check it out!) has started a podcast. I just finished listening to it and it's VERY promising and awesome to listen to it! He does the show with Russel Kealoha of Two Beer Queers who seems like a cool guy. Be sure to bookmark this link (<< click the word link) for they are not on iTunes yet but you can do the whole download thing on the site. Be sure to comment or tweet Joe or Russel (his twitter is here) saying that you love it! or hate it, I doubt that you'll hate it though!

Now to the YouTube video of the day! So this comes via my friend Kyle. He tweeted this video and I thought it was the best thing ever today!



Funny no? I thought so!

So comment, share, do whatever you will, a follow now and then would be nice.

Until next time,

~lydia =)

Hello loves!

So I'm back for good, I promise this time! I'm caught up in school and my personal life that I have the time and the interwebs to invest into this!

So there's been a lot going on. Trailers for Remember Me, Alice in Wonderland. John Green having a baby, and so many rumors going on about the reboot of the next Spider-Man movie!

Let's start with John Green having a baby! More like the Yeti having a baby! Little Henry Green was born yesterday according to Hank's new video! I'm so happy for John and Sarah on their new arrival and I just know the little guy is going to be soo awesome just like his dad!



Now I know majority of you guys have probably seen this like a million times already, but I FINALLY had the chance to see it yesterday. Be prepared to swoon my Spunk Ransom lovers for it's the Remember Me trailer!!!



I love it! Can't wait to see it! March when will you get here?!

SPEAKING of March another movie that is HIGHLY anticpated by yours truely is of course the Tim Burton reincarnation of Alice in Wonderland!

Click here because Disney is a bitch and disabled the embedding on the good trailer!

Speaking of Disney being a bitch, they have officially bought Marvel! Yes you heard me right if you are one of the few that has not heard of this horrendous action. They bought the marvelous comic book company and I have no doubt that they are going to ruin it (like they do with a LOT of things)!

That is all I can think about to fangirl over for the mean time b/c this is a ridiculously long post! Let me point out to you that I have some fun stuff going on in the sidebar. There are links of blogs and sites that I'm sure you'll love and where I get my source material! Also I'm on Skype now! So add me at your will..most likely I'll be on!

Now let me be serious just for a second about the awfulness going on in Hati. It's a very upsetting thing that Mother Nature has done to those poor people and there is so much one can do to help. Now, the Harry Potter Alliance is having a charity event online on Saturday and more info can be found here. Please do what you can to help the cause!

I'm off for now! Until next time!

P.S. Here's some new Muse for you guys!!

Hello loves!

Sorry for the lack of posting on here, but I have been going through a LOT of changes and sitiuations in my life that have prevented me from posting on here. Nevertheless I am back for good! Sadly I have no news to report right now, but that will change very soon!

So to keep up with me follow me on Twitter, find me on Facebook (write a msg saying you read the blog or I won't friend you), or just sit around and wait for me to pop up on here again.
