Premiere Particulars: Galavant
A pretty man singing silly songs in a medieval comedy? I mean, how could I possibly miss that?! That’s right—ABC’s Galavant had its premiere a short while back, and I was kind of eager to see if it’d strike the right chords with this TV fan (har har musical puns). Have you been looking to fill a TV gap on Sunday night? Continue reading
Resolutions 2015: Charlie Wilson’s War
I do believe it’s time for more Resolutions! Today’s guest is a relative newcomer to this blog. This is actually his first time partaking in one of my series, too, so be sure to give a big welcome to Steven of Past, Present, Future in TV and Film! Steven’s got a great site that pretty much says it all in the title–he covers movie and TV from all different eras Continue reading
Into the Woods: a magical, musical, praiseworthy adaptation
Fair warning: this review is likely to be a little biased. Why? Because this is quite possibly my favorite musical of all time. Some of you may already know this, but I was a bit of a theatre geek growing up. A good chunk of my middle and high school years involved spending time in the auditorium after school, running lines and singing songs and trying to make theatrical magic. Continue reading

Cara’s Top 10 Best (and Bottom 5 Worst) Things about the Hobbit Trilogy
Any of you who read my review of The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug and saw my book-nerdy reaction to it probably understand the depth of my affection for Tolkien. That said, it should come as no surprise that after reviewing the last installment of The Hobbit, The Battle of the Five Armies, I am still feeling feelings. Continue reading

Duets: Unbroken and The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies

First full week of a brand new year? Do you guys know what that means?! OH YEAH. IT’S TIME FOR SOME RESOLUTIONS. This is a series I started last year to inspire myself and others to check some must-watch films off of those long, long lists we all have. It’s a great way to get yourself in gear for another year of movie reviews. Continue reading
