General Vanessa Carlton Discussion / Name her next album

« on: July 13, 2005, 11:15:37 am »

Might I suggest, "Constellations on my Ceiling"?

That reminds me of the quote my friend used as an away message once: "I was looking up at the stars last night and I was wondering... what the heck happened to my ceiling?"  :lol:

It'll probably end before that; you're right. Unless they do some major time skips in between seasons or this show turns into another Friends (unlikely).

Well, she has 15 good years before he comes back. But he DID mention her daughters... so in fifteen years some creepy doctor may be possessing Ariel... or Bridgette... or Marie (the baby).
Creepy.
I can't wait for the finale.

You're welcome. According to both TV Guide and TV Tome, the finale will be May 23rd. I hope they show repeats after the finale; I've missed a couple episodes and want to see them.
For any of you interested, Allison has a book out, Don't Kiss Them Good-bye, about her experiences with the paranormal (and to console those who have lost a loved one and/or have a gift like she does). Yes, Allison is real, and her book is very good!

Entertainment - Movies / TV / Books / Blue is for Nightmares (book)

« on: May 01, 2005, 09:41:20 am »

Laurie Faria Stolarz is a GREAT Young Adult author with a very successful series that I highly recommend. The books are Blue is for Nightmares, White is for Magic, Silver is for Secrets, and (in August) Red is for Remembrance.
Has anyone else read these? I read all three (and am waiting impatiently for Red) and I was amazed. I'm an avid reader of the YA-fantasy genre but these books blew me away. If you haven't read these... do so immediately!

I saw it last week. It was HILARIOUS. The subtitles took some getting used to but I enjoyed the movie a lot.

General Vanessa Carlton Discussion / The Theme of Death In Vanessa's Songs

« on: April 22, 2005, 11:43:39 am »

I went to the Philly show in october and V said that The Wreckage is about an imagined car accident...
V wrote Twilight when she was depressed. It's just about how she wanted to overcome her depression and things like that.

Entertainment - Movies / TV / Books / Elektra (2005)

You should definitely buy the novelization; it has some great scenes that didn't make it into the movie. This movie could have an awesome director's cut!
The novelization explains more fully how E is resurrected, a bit more about the villians' powers, and so on. Plus Yvonne Navarro does a great job characterizing Elektra!

The novelization's explanation for her OCD is that counting and having something to concentrate on keeps out Elektra's "bad thoughts" (i.e. about her mother's death). I can't remember if this scene was in the movie (I know it was in the novelization), but Abby asks E about it and that's how she answers.

The season's not over. A new episode will be on Apr. 25th, and there will be a few more after that.

Entertainment - Movies / TV / Books / SIN CITY

« on: April 20, 2005, 06:57:18 am »

I have a question about this movie.
I know it's REALLY violent but I've read parental reviews, and it doesn't seem so bad.
On the other hand, my stepfather saw it and said he doesn't think I should see it. I'm 14, but I've seen some pretty violent stuff and some fairly graphic sexual content (I saw Sideways ).
Can anyone give their opinion on if I would be okay with this movie?
Thanks!
