Well, at this point, I'm braced for anything horrific. And my memory for details of the books is spotty, so there could be a leprechan from District 69 who sexes up all the tributes and I'd just think "Did I skim over that, or...?"
Jimmy Olsen jokes're pretty much gonna be lost on you, huh?

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

“If you could be any other character other than your own, who would you be?”
Liam: “Haymitch”
Josh: “Haymitch, for sure”
Jennifer: “I would be Wes Bentley’s beard”
Seriously, the beard is disturbing.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
so, someone in my twitter timeline said these 1 star reviews of Dracula gave him an aneurysm.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
The reviewer who said Dracula was written in "Old English language" would be stunned by actual Old English. I'd guess that the intersection of the people who like Twilight and the people who like Dracula is quite small.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
sigh ... reminds me of the YouTube video of the Twilight fan who was sobbing uncontrollably because another writer had not been sufficiently appreciative of the books. She attributed it to jealousy - after all, who is this Stephen King guy?

Is it awful of me to hope that this is true? Because dammit, I don't WANT people like the ones who wrote those reviews to read Dracula.

Someone in the lobby last night, upon seeing me taking pictures of my friend in front of Darth Vadar (the screening was at ILM, i.e., Lucasfilm), shouted that she had never seen Star Wars in a voice that made me question if she even recognized the character. Seriously? You bothered to get into a nearly closed critic screening of The Hunger Games and you've never seen Star Wars?

Didn't need to be said twice.
Or did it. Really? Star Wars?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
These days you can get away with a lot of violence in a PG-13 movie as long as there's no nudity or swearing. As a parent, I dearly wish it were the other way around.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
You can say the F word once in a PG-13, as long as it's not about sex, I believe. Like maybe my favorite single moment from X Men: First Class.
