bearshorty“Princess and the Frog” I realize this is a fairy tale with fairy tale rules but why does she fall in love with him? Shared adventure? Well, that really won’t last. And they get married after five seconds, which is actually what was needed to break the spell since she is now a princess. And we supposed to forget that he is an ass and find it all romantic. And she, who has a dream of opening a restaurant, can forget it and be a frog as long as she is married to her jerk. Or is the message is that a girl can’t just dream of having a successful career – if she isn’t married too that is all a waste. At least in the end he helps her open her restaurant. And why did the prince have to be darker skinned too – he couldn’t have been white, after all he is from a fake-European sounding country? I guess, since there is a black princess, that would have been too scary for some. I really should stop over-analyzing children’s movies. I just always have issues with movies and fairy tales where people fall in love after two seconds. Maybe that’s why “Beauty and the Beast” was my favorite fairy tale as a kid – they actually get to know each other. Hand drawn animation does look nice and I did like the songs and art style.
TV Gods are torturing me with choices: tonight at 9pm is a new episode of "True Blood" and a two-hour season premiere of "Leverage." Why did they have to move "Leverage" from Wednesday? Both can be viewed later - "True Blood" onDemand and "Leverage" on TNT website or on tape (I don't think Netflix is showing Season 3). Still, decisions, decisions. I think "True Blood" wins in the end for me since it is such crack and deliciousness but this should be considered torture!
“True Blood” S3E2 Sookie saying her name like Bill would say it was hilarious. So were team of Andy and Jason. I actually like that I read the books and now get to see those new characters. Although Calvin Norris is absolutely like nothing I imagined. Flashbacks to Godric were very cool. Vampire dinner scene was fun and I like King of Mississippi a lot. And Eric was so vulnerable both times he talked to Sookie. He is so falling for her. Their scenes together are written so well. And Bill has too much info about Sookie in his house – I’m glad they seem to be heading the way of the books. Terry’s list to Arlene was precious. Snoop Dog video “Oh, Sookie” after the episode was really funny in the whole WTF way. And Mama totally thought he learned a Russian curse word since ‘Sookie’ sounds like a curse word in Russian.
