Battle of the Snow Whites

Ok so I heard that there will be 2 adult, live action Snow White movies coming out.  Mirror Mirror seems...like not my cup of tea.  It looks like Julia Roberts playing dress up and has the mood of the wonderfully depressing and drab Alice in Wonderland. Snow White and the Huntsman actually looks like a good action piece with the feeling of Lord of the Rings behind it.  Too bad it doesn't come out until June or so of next year.  We need some good movies now!  Nothing I am really looking forward to coming out right now so I'll wait for the following on DVD

-Blue Valentine
-Drive

And whatever other indie pick jem that I can find.

DWTS

This season has been a let down in more ways than 1.
1. No fun Maks --more angry, bitter Maks :(
2. Outside drama that has nothing to do with dancing :(
3. Not a season full of great dancers (exception being JR and Ricki).

Sigh.  Just feeling weary and exhausted. Is this season over yet?  Judges made it clear that they want Rob in the final.  Not hating on Rob but I guess I am not as in love with him as the judges.  He's ok....but nowhere near as good as JR or Ricki.  I am never Wowed by his peformances but appreciate the effort he has put in.  I wish the judges would recognize Hope for the same.

Anyways I need to find another reality show to tune into as this one is winding down.  I just want to cast my vote for the following people to do DWTS (unlikely as it is!)

1. Meryl Davis
2. Charlie White
3. Johnny Weir
4. Cedric the Entertainer
5. Nastia Liukin

Hmm. Can't think of anyone else at the moment but PLEASE get some dancers on the show for the love of humanity!

Work Stress

Can I just say that it sucks when you have a co-worker that refuses to pull their own weight.  I am patting myself on the back for saying no though.  I refuse to help you accomplish your goal of not doing work.  The countdown begins to when it is no longer my problem!

Dancing With the Stars

Who knew that ballroom dancing would interest me so much?  Maksgate has seemed to be dying down thank goodness.  Yeah I wasn't feeling him 100% in what he had to say.  More had an issue with how and when he chose to say it.  I'm annoyed but now I'm over it.  In checking out other blogs it seems that the Maks haters have come out the woodwork.  The consensus is how dare Maks bring Derek into this in his GMA interview.  I agree he should have kept his mouth shut on that one.  Trust me I think Maks give people  reasons to dislike him.  What I find weird is the whole Maks v. Derek thing.  Actually is more Maks fans v. Derek fans.  That battle is so....I don't know...lame.  Maybe because I haven't watched the show since season 1 but dear lord people are getting real vicious all in the name of protecting Derek.  My guess is that Derek and Maks know each other....have know each other and are guys.  Guys have beef then 2 minutes later they are all good.  My guess is they were over it 5 minutes after it happened.  Can't wait for a Halloween themed show tonight.

Maksim Chmerkovskiy



The reason I'm watching Dancing with the Stars.

And I'm Back...

Wedding is done :) So happy with how it turned out. Will probably blog about that later. It was my life for the last year so I am glad the planning is done. Major shake up on the job front. I am changing offices and I looking forward to being in a new environment...though I will miss the old one :(
