Rocky Horror Picture Show

Heyy!

Today we're going to talk about a cult classic the Rocky Horror Picture Show! Since 'they' have decided to redo this movie (coming October 2016) we're going to chat about the original!

This one might be a little longer than normal bear with me guys!

This more than slightly odd movie stars 

                                                  Tim Curry - Dr. Frank-N-Furter 

                                                        Susan Sarandon - Janet Weiss 

                                                       Barry Bostwick - Brad Majors 

Synopsis :P 

The movie starts with a pair of bright red lips singing Science Fiction/ Double Feature than opens on the front of a church with a wedding party coming out the font doors, and driving away in their just married car, launching promptly into a musical number Dammit Janet ending with the proposal of two of the main stars, Janet and Brad.

Getting lost on the way to share their good news Brad and Janet launch into Over At The Frankenstein Place as the approach the doors to the dark mysterious castle walking right into a strange party fully of guests singing and dancing The Time Warp. 

Only wanting to use the phone Brad and Janet are promptly stripped of their sopping wet clothes as Frank-N-Furter makes his grand entrance down the semi sketchy elevator singing Sweet Transvestite.

Switching locations to the laboratory to show off his newest creation Rocky -Peter Hinwood moving into Sword of Damocles.

then right into I Can Make You A Man. Crashing into the scene making a huge, messy, entrance is Eddie - Meat Loaf singing Hot Patootie - Bless My Soul, then finishing with I Can Make You A Man Reprised. 
                                                              Meat Loaf - Eddie

The movie calms down a small bit and everyone is shown a room for the night until Frank-N-Furter sneaks into both Janet, and Brads room to seduce them launching into a Touch-a, Touch-a, Touch Me between Janet and Rocky. 

Once it looks as though Frank-N-Furter and Brad have done 'the deed' Brad launches into Once In A While while Janet cries to herself in another room. 

Everyone in the castle is awake when the great Dr. Everett V. Scott - Jonathan Adams

Launching into the question of everybody's name over and over. The respectful host he his Frank-N-Furter has everyone sit to dinner for Rocky's Birthday then Singing Eddie.

Frank-N-Furter grows annoyed with Janet chasing her through the laboratory singing Planet Schmanet, Janet resulting in Janet, Brad, and Dr. Scott being stuck, or glued to the floor, than has a switch flipped turning Janet, Dr. Scott, Brad, Rocky, and Columbia into naked statues. 

                                                          Nell Campbell - Columbia 

The next scene opens on a stage 

launching into Rose Tint My World transitioning into Fanfare/ Don't Dream It

Riff Raff and Magenta burst into the scene fed up with Frank-N-Furter and are ready to go home!

                                     Richard O'Brien - Riff Raff    Patricia Quinn - Magenta 

Going right into Wild And Untamed Thing chasing Frank-N-Furter around the stage. Once Riff Raffs proclamation is made Frank-N-Furter sings I'm Going Home only to be told he isn't coming ending with everyone in the pool singing Super Heroes wrapping up with Science Fiction/ Double Feature reprised 

Review Time!

Okay Personally I looove this movie! 

It's great quirky, funny, and has some great songs with the all time classic dance number 

The characters aren't exactly relatable but it is so much fun to watch!! 

Theres a new fave song waiting for you just behind the bright red lips 

If you've watched The Rocky Horror Picture Show let me know what you though did you have a fave number?


Thanks for reading! I'll be back soon!

Archie Married Life! Book Two!

Heyy!

Today were going to talk about one of my personal favourite comic books (series...?)! So were going to be doing this inside out and backwards by starting with book two cause why not?

There will be spoilers. You have been warned!


 


In every book in this series it flips between what marriage would be like with Betty as well as how it would be like to be married to Veronica spending more than a few pages on each side of the potential story line. When the book flips to the other girls life the 'chapter' opens with a quote from something that happened in the previous 'chapter' and picks up right where they left off.

                

Personal Copy :P 

This book opens up with a synopsis of what the characters have been up to then launches its self right into married life with Veronica Lodge-Andrews. 

I like that in both worlds Jughead starts dating, eventually marrying Midge, and owns the Chock'lit Shoppe. 

In the Archie marries Veronica parts of the book Betty starts to hang out with the infamous Reggie Mantel! Which eventually grows into something great between the two of them, I have to admit as cute as Archie and Betty are together I ship Reggie and Betty (Beggy?...)  so hard! :P 

The book is careful to keep up with all the characters in Archie's life without it being confusing or leaving anyone out from some of the 'regular' comics.

  

Review time!

Okay I really like the way the story lines flow smoothly throughout the book, I also enjoy how realistic the story lines are, you really feel like the authors wrote what would / could happen to each and every character and not for a gimmick to draw in more readers. 
I enjoy reading the story lines and all the possibilities that go with the book(s) they are creative and full of twists and turns that take you on an Archie-fied journey thats enjoyable to read.  

I would recommend this series to anyone, mostly those who enjoy comics but I think anyone and everyone could enjoy the fun sparky story line! This book has only a couple of downer moments, but what good series doesn't? :P 

Love Archie Comics!

Thank you for reading! I'll be back soon!

Snack Compare!

Heyy! 

Today we will be comparing two different kinds of crunchy cheese snacks known as Cheesies!


                                                              Cheetos crunchy Cheesies 

VS

Hawkins crunchy Cheezies 

Lets start with Hawkins Cheezies. I had these for the first time today and these are some of my first impressions of them. 

These cheezies are larger in individual size than cheetos and they are very crunchy, almost as though they cloud be baked (I don't know if they were they just taste like it) these cheezies are also less greasy than the other brand, maybe they are baked, and the Cheezies have more of a cheese taste.
With all that being said these are also so incredibly salty! for what the serving size suggests which is roughly 3/4 cup or 50 grams. They also, in my opinion, leave a weird after taste in your mouth. 

On to Cheetos. These are the typical go to snack if someone is looking for crunchy cheesies. Cheetos are tasty and have a cheesie flavour but can tend to be greasy. These cheesies can be smaller and less crunchy than some, but are still tasty! They have less sodium as well as less carbohydrates in the Cheetos making them not good for you but better than the Hawkins Cheezies.   

Review time! 

Okay personally I enjoy Cheetos more than I did the Cheezies even though they tend to leave more of a residue on your hands I like the fact that they taste waaaay less salty! And that you are able to get different flavours of the Cheetos crunchy Cheesies. In my opinion the Cheetos are just better than the Hawkins snacks they may not have as much of a cheese taste, but they also don't have as much salt I know I've said that a lot, but its a big deal in my opinion, who wants to have a snack that leaves you bloated from the excess salt intake and with a weird left over taste in your mouth. 

Remember these are just my personal opinions, and if you think differently leave me a comment with your opinion. 


Thanks for reading! I'll be back soon!

Saint Anything

Heyy!

Possible spoilers. You have been warned. 

Today were going to be talking about Saint Anything by Sarah Dessen.

Saint Anything Book Cover.

This newest instalment from the world of Sarah Dessen is about a young girl, (aren't they all?) back in the town of Lakeview trying to get through her life with the fiasco her mess of brother has left behind in his trail out of town. 

Trying to get out of the giant shadow her brother (Peyton the third)  had left behind when he was hauled away. Sydney decides its time to transfer from the fancy prep school her parent had proudly founded for her to attend to the 'regular' high school in town. 

The move is complete, now enters a cast full of eccentric characters that seamlessly fit themselves into Sydney's world and vice versa. The Chatham's are a warm fun loving family that are about to radically change Sydney's world, and in my option it'll be for the better. 

'Saving' Sydney from her friend Eric Layla Chatham befriends Sydney, and soon do all of Layla's friends including but not limited to her brother Mac Chatham. Spending time with the Chatham's matriarch Sydney starts to get the warm motherly touch and advice that she never got at home from her over achieving mother.  

The new friends Sydney makes are very real while reading the book you can imagine yourself right along with them delivering pizzas, listening to blue grass, and hunting for the perfect fries. 
This is not the first Sarah Dessen book I have read but it is quickly shooting to the top of the list of my favourite books by this particular author. I love the quirky characters and the descriptive settings you can clearly picture what is going on while you read. 

Just like every Sarah Dessen novel there is young love, fights, solutions, compromises, and cameos, but having said that Saint Anything is nothing like Dessesn's other novels it attaches itself to a very real problem that is grossly increasing in todays society (Drug problems, drunk driving, over bearing parents, stress and feeling lost in a crowd in your own home) 

Review time!

Okay Saint Anything is an awesome book that touches on so many problems people face today, even if you specifically have not faced a court room for your brother I believe there is something from this book that you can relate to. 

I love that in every book other characters make cameo appearances, and that Sarah Dessen has created her own little world between the suburb of Lakeview and the beach of Colby. 

Sain Anything is an superb read (I've read it 3 times) and I would recommend it to anyone! Give it a go you never know what you may find. 

Thanks for reading! I'll be back soon!

Technical Difficulties and a Wedding!

Heyy!

It's been a little while, and that only because I've been having trouble working this blog, but I have been meaning to write. What about you may ask? Well I'll tell you :P 

On Saturday (April 30th) I was a bridesmaid in my aunts wedding. We hadn't talked in a while, but she asked me so I said yes. So on Saturday my sister 2 nieces her husband, and myself pile in their car and head for the wedding. 

Old Mill Chapel 

Old Mill

I wasn't sure how I would feel about going at first, but I actually had a lot of fun! It was nice to see every one it has been quite a while, and I wasn't sure how that would go over at first, but like I said It was great. My sister was there in case things were awkward or boring, but the building was beautiful the pictures were fun, and I got to see cousins, aunts, and uncles I haven't seen in so long, as well as meeting a slew of new people. The food wasn't bad I'm just not a big steak fan, but really who goes to a wedding for the food. My aunt looked happy and it was nice to see her like that. 

Later on in the night, just before we left, most of the people there danced to 'Let It Go' form Frozen it's my nieces favourite movie and songs it was funny to see everyone dancing and belting out the words!

My niece had the best time dancing with my cousin and posing for pictures even though she was being shy in the end she didn't want to leave. 

Review Time!:

Okay so here it goes! Even though you may not want to do something think it through and if its not dangerous or illegal try it out, you never know it may surprise you! Discovering something new that you never thought you would like is always fun! And maybe you'll even meet or reengage with someone awesome!

Thanks for reading! I'll be back soon!
