[Editor's Note: The internet is abuzz with totally unsubstatiated hearsay that Edward Cullen himself could have an invitation to join the already smashingly successful Hunger Games franchise...much to the chagrin of everyone with a keyboard everywhere.   Read more

[Editor's Note: Last night, after eight glorious seasons, Hugh Laurie (and fans across the world) said farewell to House, M.D. in an twisty-turny episode titled "Everybody Dies" (for a spoiler loaded Blogcritics review click HERE).  Aunt Becky of Mommy Wants Vodka has been a long time devotee to her TV-Husband Gregory House, M.D.  Read more

Oh, Celebrities. You make everything more fun. Even The Most Exciting Two Minutes in Sports.Hollywood headed south this weekend to lend their glitz to the Kentucky Derby's glamour, and the results, of course, do not dissapoint.

The Wolf Gift by Anne Rice

What Ms. Rice does so well in all her novels is explore the definition of humanity as it applies to those not normally considered part of society; The Wolf Gift is no exception. As Reuben explores his new powers, the line between good and evil is very narrow indeed. His conflict over distancing himself from his loved ones to protect them versus the need he has to surround himself with those same loved ones is as understandable as it is heartbreaking.  Read more

The Strange Case of Origami Yoda

A long time ago in a galaxy not so very far away I discovered Star Wars. When I think of Star Wars I think of uncle's house circa 1983 and their wooden-paneled basement TV room. They were the first people I knew to have a satellite dish and a VCR and we spent a lot of time watching Star Wars down there. I think of them every year on May 4, otherwise known as Star Wars Day. May the fourth, I mean force, be with you!  Read more >

If you've been fantasizing about Bartlett 2012, your dreams are about to come true. (I'm kind of an Allison Janney fanatic myself.) Fans of The West Wing rejoice, even if it's only for a few minutes this PSA from Funny or Die brings us right back to 1600 Pennsylvania Ave as we remember it in the Sorkin years. Ah, the good ol' days.  Read more >

I work in an enormous bookstore that is nestled in the center of an upscale Los Angeles shopping center. Pretty much the only thing that anyone has asked for lately has been Fifty Shades of Grey—or some mangled variation of this title. We have sold out of this book so many times over the past few weeks that I have stopped keeping track. Men, women—even teenagers who probably have no idea what they are in for—have been asking about it.  Read more >

Drew Goddard and Joss Whedon’s The Cabin in the Woods is rightly gaining incredible acclaim for turning the horror flick genre on its head with a post-modern take that breaks it down piece by piece in a brilliant twist on the traditional devices.The film is intelligent, witty, accessible—and still offers satisfying horror moments for those lovers of the genre’s classic moves.  Read more >
