Recap: ‘Marriage Boot Camp’ over-beveraged and divorce court

There wasn’t very much funny on “Marriage Boot Camp” Friday night. However, Julian taught me a new word. He wasn’t drunk. He’d been “over-beveraged.” Bahahaha… I’ve heard of over-served, but that’s a new one. And that’s where the humor stopped. So every episode of WEtv’s “Marriage Boot Camp” they do a couple of exercises led

Recap: ‘Real Housewives of New York,’ The ‘Wanna Be’ Edition

I was entranced by parts of the Real Housewives of New York tonight, but the promise of Sonja performing a live burlesque was enough to guarantee I won’t “Watch What Happens Next” on a bet.

Recap: WE tv’s ‘Marriage Boot Camp’ Ups The Ante

I almost decided not to blog the new season of “Marriage Boot Camp” on WEtv after attempting to sit through the “meet the couples” pre-show episodes.

Grand Budapest Hotel Review

I love Wes Anderson’s light touch and unique sense of style. Extreme sophistication and childlike wonder co-exist in beautiful, intriguing, delicious harmony, joys to watch and hear. Anderson’s writing is informed by things of great arcane weight, classical education, art and design through the ages, arts and letters of the past, reverence for his characters

300: Rise of an Empire Review

This is an odd one to quantify. It takes place at the same time as the King Leonidas and a force of 300 men tale on the Persians at Thermopylae, around 480 B.C. So it’s not a pre/sequel to the Gerard Butler hit that took comic book nerds by storm in 2006. Leonidas is killed
