Movie under Review

So this blog-o-rama is sorta turning into my little outlet on how I feel about everything, from my taste in music, TV, make-up, my deepest darkest feelings (okay, okay, maybe not my DEEPEST DARKEST, but semi-deep, not very light feelings), fashion, movies, food, books, etc.... Sprinkled in with some fun little updates about my family happenings. So, let's just accept it for what it is & embrace it. Sometimes it's just fun for me to come on here & tell you all about my recent opinions on things. It's like my very own personal online magazine that I am Editor in Chief of. When I was say 10 or 11, I would cut out pix from magazines of my fave celebs (from no other than Teen Bop Magazine), my top Celeb's at that time were New Kids on the Block, Paula Abdul and members from The Mickey Mouse Club (remember that? and the band "THE PARTY" that stemmed off of it). Yes, and I am actually talking about the Mickey Mouse Club that was before B. Spears & J.T. It was the one with like Damien & Tiffany (my two personal faves). Any-chow, I would cut out pictures of them, paste them on construction paper & staple them together & make my own Mag out of it. I would even write little "articles". Priceless. But, the point is, sometimes when I am doing posts on this blog I feel like I am doing an awesomer, high techer, grown uper version of that. So, I guess I really never will truly grow up. I just become an older version of my younger self? Who knows. But, on the real's yo, Mike & I rented "The September Issue" last night. It's basically the documentary version of "The Devil Wears Prada". The girl that wrote that book, Lauren Weisberger, was the real life Anne Hathaway character of the movie. And the character that Meryl Streep plays in the movie, in real life is Anna Wintour. Well it's a 90 minute documentary of the putting together of the September Issue of Vogue, which we all know is the biggest issue of the year, it forecasts all of the Fall trends and such. Some call it "The Fashion Bible". I don't however, I am obsessed with mags, but not Vogue for some reason. But yes, if you have seen The Devil Wears Prada, than may I just say, Meryl is a DEAD RINGER for Anna Wintour, she really does seem like the ice queen. I actually loved the movie. It was fun seeing how they put together the mag & all of those beautiful clothes....Oh My, my, my. My favorite person in the documentary was a lady named Grace Coddington, the creative director at Vogue. I have to first of all say that Mike said that she looks like the witch in "Willow", agreed. But, she was the only one who ever stood up to Anna, and was quite a genius at what she does. Very interesting show, obviously I liked the Hollywooded-up version, The Devil Wears Prada better. But it still was very entertaining. I give it a 7.5 out of ten. Mike even actually stayed up through the whole thing, which is saying A LOT. He can't stay up for nuffin'. Next up for my viewing pleasure, I am excited to see "The Backup Plan", yes, it is "that one with J. Lo in it", "Date night"- have heard that that one is hilarious, the new "Robin Hood"- Mike & I watched the Kevin Costner version of this as part of our first date, so I kinda feel like it's "our movie", and then some other renters that I have yet to see: Julie & Julia, Every body's Fine, The Invention of Lying, and gasp... Avatar (no we were not one of the bazillion people that saw it in the theaters). So, let's pop some popcorn, grab a blankie & snuggle duggle up to a great movie...
