Ok, so I know I'm weird, but I like him. I feel sorry for him. When Keeping Up With The Kardashians first started, you could just tell he was the moral center of the whole nutty klan. He was grossly outnumbered and after 22 years of marriage to the "momanger" , Kris Jenner, he got out.
Bless him.
Instead of doing what most of us thought he'd do, chase women, be a pig, gain weight, or lose weight. Bruce is going to become a woman.
I have no words.
Did anyone see this one coming?
I sure didn't! I wish him well and hope he becomes a happier and more fulfilled in his new life.
I'm also looking forward to seeing how all of this plays out in the media.

It's been a while....
I haven't 'ranted' in while, not because there's nothing to rant about-there is- but I've been busy!
Ok, these might be all 'older' news, but I must rant anyway...hang on tight!
MILEY CYRUS
Ye Gods.
She was a wildly popular singer/tv star when she was a child, and now, she's a nearly naked, tongue-wagging, drug taking, twerker. Improvement? Not hardly.
I can't say that I'm a prude. I love Prince, Lady Gaga, Fifty Shades of Grey, etc, but this is so stupid, I almost can't stand it. Kelly Clarkson said something to the effect of "off key strippers" to describe the horror that was the VMAs and she's just about right.
Grow the hell up, Miss Cyrus. Put your tongue in your mouth, slap on some clothes and then try to sing. Maybe I'll listen. Maybe.

It's been a while, I have rants to catch up on....
So, I've been busy with real life and haven't had the time to rant like I would normally do. Here's a few things that have driven me crazy and yes, some of these things are 'old news'...
1. Why did all critics when reviewing The Hunger Games lash out at The Twilight Saga? They have nothing whatsoever to do with one another. ENOUGH. IDIOTS!
2. Fifty Shades of Grey is a great read. It's not for everyone, however, but if you have an open mind and aren't easily offended, read it. I own the trilogy and plan to read it again.
3. I had a while there when I didn't get FOX. My cable company was blocked from airing the network because the affiliates wanted more money. Greedy jerks! I had to spend money to see Glee several times and I DID NOT LIKE THAT. It's not right. On my birthday, May 17th, I got an email telling me that FOX was now airing. That was a nice gift!
4. I'm still hooked on all the Kardashian shows. Why? I don't know. They are all odd and way too good looking, but I can't stop watching. Sometimes, they embarrass me with the way they behave, but I love the shows and will watch as long as they air.
5. Linsday Lohan is going to play Liz Taylor in a film? HELLO???? NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO AND OH HELL NO. Who is the idiot that hired her? FIRE THEM! She looks nothing like her, is trouble with a capital T and has little to no talent. RECAST THE FILM YOU IDIOTS!
6. Do any of you read? I created a great website for fans of all books called BookWormHotSpot.com. I'd love it if you would all join up. I'm running a challenge on the site for Fifty Shades of Grey right now. (shameless plug, no rant, sorry!)
7. If you do like to read....have you ever tried audiobooks? I'm hooked on them. I don't have a lot of time to read, so I tend to get audiobooks from my library. If you haven't a clue what to try first, let me give you some suggestions: Sudden Mischief by Robert B Parker (it's a fun, suspenseful, romantic, and humorous 'read'), BossyPants by Tina Fey (SO FUNNY!!), The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo and the rest of the trilogy (can't beat this story!), Dead Until Dark and the other Sookie Stackhouse books (Vampires, Romance, Humor and Horror all rolled into one....TRUE BLOOD, people!), and more. Want more suggestions? Join BookWormHotSpot.com LOL!
8. Is it just me or are most statuses on FaceBook either whiny, preachy or just plain offensive? I don't offended easily, but sometimes, people are just rude or gross. I'm sick of all the complaining that some people do, (I've been known to do it too!), OMG, the preaching! I see tons of posts about religion and they drive me nuts. They are either holier than thou, atheists, or just dumb. Politics makes people mad. I don't mind that, cause it doesn't offend me, so those posts are fine. Some people have unfriended me because I'm not religious enough. COME ON PEOPLE, really? It's so-called religious people like that who turned me off of organized religion. Geez. BTW, I'm Christian and proud of it, but I don't feel the need to judge others or preach to them.
9. I am on Twitter, but I just don't 'get it'. I don't understand the lingo and all. I can't get into it and feel like I'm missing something. Someone care to explain Twitter to me? NO? OK, I'll live. LOL.
That's it for now. I hope you've caught up on my rants now. Have a rant of your own? GREAT! Comment below....

Same old same old...New Rant, Old Subject
I haven't yet read "The Hunger Games", but I will soon. I haven't yet watched the movie based on the best selling book, but I will AFTER I've read the book. I am sure when I do read and watch, I'll enjoy both. I look forward to enjoying both. What I don't enjoy are the endless comparisons to "The Twilight Saga".
I've read all the reviews for "The Hunger Games" and everyone says it's a GREAT movie, but they also compare it to "Twilight". Why? The storylines are nothing alike, the film isn't about romance, and IT IS NOT EVEN THE SAME TYPE OF FILM. So what if both have female leads? So what if they are both based on best selling Young Adult books? So what?
This week's PEOPLE MAGAZINE has a great review of "The Hunger Games" and I was reading it thinking "I must get to reading the book so I can watch the movie!" Then the idiot reviewer stated that Katniss is a much better female role model than 'the insipid Bella Swan'. Ok, so Bella isn't showy or bubbly, but she is more of a normal teenage girl than I've seen in films. She is normal, not beautiful, not ugly, just plain. She's clumsy-to the point of being a frequent visitor to the ER, she's smart, studious, a loaner. So what if she falls in love? It happens. So what if she wants the boy she fell in love with? It happens. Yes, she does choose to want to be like Edward, but he is sacrificing too. In my mind, Bella is a great character. She is normal, rather dull, and not all that popular. She doesn't drink, take drugs or do anything too bad-except for fall totally in love with a gorgeous vampire. Would I do the same thing in her place? Don't know, but it is FICTION after all.
I'm still tired of being given grief for loving "The Twilight Saga". I can love what I want to. Idiots!
I haven't read "The Hunger Games" yet, and I will, but why keep comparing the books and films to "Twilight"? It's as stupid as comparing "Harry Potter" to "Twilight".
STOP IT!

Bluray/DVD Movie Review with no rants!
The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo (2011)
The American version of the hit and critically acclaimed Swedish film based on the best selling novel of the same name, this film directed by David Fincher, (Fight Club, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Se7en), and adapted by Steven Zaillian (Schindler's List and Moneyball)
This English-language adaptation of the Swedish novel by Stieg Larsson follows a disgraced journalist, Mikael Blomkvist (Daniel Craig), as he investigates the disappearance of a wealthy patriarch's niece from 40 years ago. He is aided by the pierced, tattooed, punk computer hacker named Lisbeth Salander (Rooney Mara). As they work together in the investigation, Blomkvist and Salander uncover immense corruption beyond anything they have ever imagined.
First, let me say that I am a huge fan of the novels and the Swedish films staring Michael Nyqvist (Blomkvist) and Noomi Rapace (Salander) and I honestly didn't think that anyone but Rapace could play Salander. Let me tell you that I was wrong.
The film follows Stieg Larsson's book more closely than the Swedish film and I appreciated that. There is more detail into the life of Lisbeth and Mikael, there lives before they met, relationships, work, etc. I felt like I got to know the characters better in Fincher's film than in the Swedish film.
I'm not saying that Rapace wasn't a revelation in all three films and doesn't deserve the praise she is still getting from her performance, but I think I liked Mara's Lisbeth more. It's a very shocking thing to admit because I honestly have never seen such a performance than Rapace's in the Millennium Trilogy, until Mara's.
Mara's 'take' on Salander is riveting, she all but vibrates with rage. The rape scene isn't as violent as was in the Swedish film and for that, I'm grateful, although if you have read the book, you know just how awful it was. She is strong, yet weak, hideously ugly, yet beautiful, small yet strong and I love her.
Lisbeth Salander is one of the greatest characters in literature/film history. Disagree? Read and watch!
Daniel Craig is a more sexy Blomkvist than Nyqvist and it's a good thing because in the books, Blomkvist is sort of a horndog who has women throw themselves at him. I couldn't see that with the Swedish film, but oh yes, I can in the US film.
All in all, both versions are amazing, well acted and directed. If you are a fan of film and want to witness amazing acting, watch both. You will not be sorry.
Take a look at the trailers for BOTH films
*Look for more movie reviews to come*

I am a movie fan. I love film! I'm picky. I don't care for 'gang films' or 'art house films' but as a rule, I'm a film nut.
I've seen tons of movies. After the AFI (the American Film Institute) issued there 100 Greatest Films list, I started finding all the films on that list and watch them. Let me stress that I don't agree with the choices often. "Midnight Cowboy" was horrid. I hated it. I thought the story was lousy, the acting worse and the whole idea in general a bad one. The AFI doesn't agree, but that is the way I feel.
Cult films are another type I usually enjoy. I love "Rocky Horror Picture Show" and think it's great fun. I love "Memento" due to it's unusual storytelling technique and ideas. It's well acted and well constructed. As for some other famous cult films, I'm still on the fence. Some I'll try to watch again just to see if I'm missing something the first time around. I'm usually willing to give a film a chance. One I will not see again is the John Waters (who, in general, I often like), film, "Pink Flamingos". It's so disgusting that I couldn't finish it. I had to shower after I attempted to watch it. I am very hard to offend, but this film totally offended me. I can't go into specifics, but let's just say that there is some violations of a chicken, eating poop and some other things that I can't/won't list. Yes, it is that bad.
Do I look down at someone for loving a certain film or type of film? No. To each his/her own, but I get often made fun of and talked to like I'm an idiot over what films I love. Why? I don't know. Some people love kid-friendly films, others only love horror, some love romances and nothing else.I love all sorts of odd movies, little-seen hidden gems, commerical bombs and blockbuster hits. I love all sorts of films. I'll talk with you about films and film trivia all day. Just do not ever tell me or anyone else what you love is stupid or not worth watching.

Why is being a Twi-Hard such a bad thing?
I'm a grown woman, a mom and a wife. I've read tons and tons of books that I love, watched even more movies and have varied interests. I found these books several years ago about teen angst and vampires. I love vampires, love angst and love love stories, so I was drawn in. I read the first one, immediately had to read the others and I've been a fan ever since.
When I became a Twi-hard, I joined millions and millions of other fans, many are like me, older and totally in love with the saga.
Why is it so hard to be a Twilight fan? Why do we have to hear all sorts of grief when we say something positive about the books or films? Why? Most likely because they don't 'get' it. They don't get the magic, the romance, the angst of it all.
I just saw the film, "Breaking Dawn Part 1" and I have to say, it's the best of the series so far and what happens when I say that? I get grief, that's what.
Let me enjoy my fun and shut up if you don't like it. Damn.

Breaking Dawn, Kim K, and more
Yes, I am 'one of those Twilight People' and I'm proud of it. I'm going to be one of the many that flock as soon as possible to the movie to see Breaking Dawn Part 1. I'll buy it when it comes out on BluRay and I'll get all items I am able to relating to it. Yes, I'm 'one of those Twilight people'.
Kim Kardashian....where do I begin? I'm a newbie when it comes to their reality show, only just recently giving in and watching it and getting hooked, but what the hell is this crap? I like Bruce, Kris (the mom) and that's about it. Why do I watch this show? I don't know. Why do I care about the wedding and the divorce (not a shocker, btw), why? Don't ask me. I don't know.
Gene Simmons and Shannon Tweed FINALLY got married. I cried like a baby while watching their wedding and the shows that were shown this season. I just love them. I do. They are a cute, wealthy, famous, but REAL family and I can't imagine not watching that show. My kids watch it, my Mom watches it, my Husband watches it. We are all hooked. Can't wait to see what is in store for them next season. I hope it's happiness.
Am I the only one that thinks that not only should Michael Jackson's doctor get prison time, but all of his plastic surgeons should too? Rest in peace, King of Pop.
Is anyone else hooked on Storage Wars? I love this show. We will watch it all day if it was on. It's habit forming.

Who saw True Blood's season finale last night? You did? Good! OMG, was that a wild show last night or what? WOW is just about all I can say.
I knew what happened with Debbie was going to (spoiler alert!) mainly because it happened in the books. But, what the hell with Tara? OMG!!! OMG!!! I am not really sure if I'll make it 10 months or more for the new season.
While I'm complaining on having to wait so long, let me ask this: why DO we have to wait so long? WHY? It is like we get 10 shows once a year (I know it has to be more than that, but I am trying to prove a point here). Come on, TB, help us out! Move it a little!
Now, I have to get on Amazon.com to pre order this season's DVD set.
If you haven't watched the show, do it. What are you waiting for? Start watching and then we can talk.

Summit found who leaked Breaking Dawn footage
I'm going to admit again that I saw the leaked footage, but never posted it, just looked.
I'm going to admit that I also LOVED what I saw.
I'm going to agree that stealing property is a crime and is wrong. Those who steal should be punished.
That said, I must also say that if Summit would stop and think a minute, they might have to sue one of their own. How DID the footage wind up in the hands of a certain fan? The sets and locations were closed, now weren't they? Security all over? Everything hush hush? If all those answers are 'yes', then Summit's employees are to blame.
Here's the article to read further:

Many people saw the footage, many people loved it. It created more buzz for the movie, got people who already wanted and planned to see it more excited and got some press. So, yes, maybe the thief should have some kind of punishment, but Summit, you also might thank her for the free press.

I can usually find everything online.....
I'm getting very frustrated about not being able to find the honeymoon scene from Breaking Dawn shown at Comic Con. The scene with Jacob is available, (see previous post) but the good one with the action isn't. Why? WHY? WHY?
If Summit was smart, and I think they are, they'd start giving us dedicated fans SOMETHING more than Jacob. Maybe they think only Team Jacob is interested. WRONG! Team Edward is chomping at the bit and they'd better start delivering!
November is a LONG wait.

Fishborne Exits CSI
Oh thank you! I thought he'd never leave.
As an actor, I assume he is talented, but I have never liked him. As a character, Ray Langston was ridiculous. He made the other CSI characters look stupid, he acted superior to them even though he was a newbie and he was almost unbearable. Much of the blame does lay on the writers for writing such silliness and now it's over.
Fishborne chose to not renew his contract. Several reports say it's due to the fact that he wanted to do more films. Many say that it's also due to the fact that fans complained, hated the character, and the ratings went down. Face it, if it walks like a duck, sounds like a duck, it's usually a duck.
He's gone! He's gone! Now, I can watch my former favorite show again.
Let's just hope The Powers That Be are bright enough to beg and plead with William Petersen to return for many shows next season. It's pretty obvious that no one else will do.

Lyndsey Lohan is confused as to why Betty White spoke up about her....
Lohan said it felt strange to get criticized by White. “I've always been a fan of hers," Lohan said. “It's just a bit strange when people feel they must speak publicly about others, especially a grown woman."
Seriously? Come on! LaLohan, if you wouldn't constantly use drugs, get bombed in public, steal things and screw everything that isn't nailed down, no one would have to say a bad thing about you. I think, in all honesty, it's time you grow the hell up. I no longer have any desire to watch you in a film or on tv, I will not ever go see a film you are in. Betty White is a classy (and ballsy) lady. She's had a long career and you MIGHT seriously think about listening to what she has to say.
As for Charlie Sheen, he really needs to be locked up somewhere for a while and have his mouth taped shut. His kids might already need therapy, his ex wives probably do too, and his fans are disappointed. I didn't ever watch Two and 1/2 Men, and I feel like I'm not missing a thing. Will I ever watch him in anything? NO.
Now, I love a good scandal, celeb gossip and all, but these people are getting away with anything they do or might do. Soon, we'll see that one of them (or another trouble celeb like them) has committed a violent crime. Since they are getting away with burglary, trespassing, drug use, etc, why not a violent crime? Hell, O.J. killed two people and got away with it.
Sorry, but this is getting way out of hand.

Summit is going bonzo over leaks for Breaking Dawn
This book, the final novel in the incredibly popular Twilight Saga, is a hard one to film and even harder, I'm sure, to have with a PG-13 Rating. Now, I'm an adult and I'd love an R rating for the film. Haven't read the book? DO NOT READ ANY FURTHER!
SPOILERS!SPOILERS!SPOILERS!SPOILERS!SPOILERS!SPOILERS!SPOILERS!SPOILERS!
The book tells of Bella and Edward's wedding, honeymoon, (vampire sex is violent, hot and utterly fabulous) and the unplanned, totally unexpected pregnancy that results. Bella loves being human because she loves being able to LOVE Edward and doesn't mind staying human a bit longer so she can 'enjoy' him more. That all changes with her pregnancy. A pregnancy that is only three months long and extremely dangerous. She is carrying an unknown monster, remember. The birth of the half-vampire child is a horrible, bloody and extremely violent one that ends with Bella dying and becoming a vampire.
Reading the book was exciting, exhausting and rather frustrating, Frustrating not only because of the fact that the book was seemingly written for 12 year olds, but because I felt like the filmmakers would cheat those of us who can deal with some smutty vampire lovin' and some blood. After seeing the 'leaked' photos, I'm not so worried anymore. I all but burst into flames at the photos of Bella and Edward on their honeymoon and from the photo I saw of Edward holding the bloody baby, it's really lookin' promising.
I have to admit: I have the pics. I didn't post them mainly due to the total hissy fit that Summit is throwing. Let me tell you all....the pics are AWESOME! Not only that, I found a site that had *sigh* a video of one of the love scenes. *sigh* I will also confess I watched it three times. LOL.
In my experience, most of these 'leaks' are posted by Hollywood insiders. Think about it. Who else would have them? Hmmm? Have you ever seen a link to a movie that's not out yet? Watched one? Well, if you did, you'd sometimes find that they are damn good copies, right? Well, who do you think posts those? You got it. Hollywood insiders who are most likely working on the film. There,see? They do it to themselves.
So, in closing, I'd like to tell Stephanie Meyer "Sorry, I love your work, love the Saga, but I won't stop hunting for spoilers and photos." and to the filmmakers, "Chill out dudes. It's great publicity and it's making people want to see it even more. I'm not sure I can stand to wait til November. The movie looks amazing!"
Keep checking this blog, I'll update it more often as time permits.
