I wish I was still sitting in The Tate Center theatre, watching (and crying) at the first time I saw Garden State. I wish I still had those goosebumps over just how good the soundtrack was, and how much everyone on campus revealed in talking about it – for months. Unfortunately (only in some ways), I’m way … Continue reading
Get over it. Because it was nothing compared to the “real” story behind Sleeping Beauty. In Disney’s Maleficent, starring the born-for-it Angelina Jolie, we find out what made her so evil in the animated stories of past. We get her side of the story – what some would say was the real story – and it’s really, … Continue reading
There are some things we need to talk about. Like, why the heck Lupita Nyong’o is even allowed on a red carpet after the downhill (mud)slide that has been her awards season? Yeah, yeah, she’s such a talented actress for getting 12 Years a Slave, right after graduation and she dropped my jaw with that … Continue reading
Well, guys, I don’t claim to be an end-all to your pop culture tastes and preferences. And, to show that, I wanted to offer up a (very) well-penned perspective on the movie that hit theaters last Friday. Here’s to healthy debates and a myriad, melting pot of opinions that exist (among friends) in the world today… … Continue reading
Gah. Is anyone planning to see this? It’s not everyday you get to watch Johnny Depp slip into a character that doesn’t require eyeliner (even though I love that character). I mean, he just isn’t doing much else these days. So, when this film hit box offices this weekend, curiosity and years … Continue reading
So, now that I’ve got New Mexico on the brain (and there’s only three days left on this Lent-inspired “no cheese” thing), we’re ready to start drooling over Mexican food again. It’s a staple in The Colosimo Casa because we love all things cheesy and anything you can dip a tortilla chip into. Plus, it’s … Continue reading
Okay, friends (and family). There are only a few more weeks left in ski season. That means, you better be scrolling flight options as you’re reading this. Where you’re going? New Mexico. I know, I know. No one here on the east coast knows that you can ski in New Mexico. I didn’t either. But, … Continue reading
Someone (you, jerk, will remain nameless) recently pointed out that soon I won’t be able to continue publishing blog posts as a “twenty-something” idler anymore. Gee, thanks. As if I wasn’t already kind of grimacing at the thought of an entirely new decade (that will no doubt go by faster than the last), now I … Continue reading
It’s no secret the Oscar race is a golden one. With the likes of Meryl and Martin popping up almost ceaselessly, year to year, it’s a rare year (and an even rarer win) for someone under the age of 30 to get the nod. This year is no different. With a race including so many … Continue reading
Guys, this picture really doesn’t do this stew justice. But, it’s the only one I took before we ravenously consumed an entire crockpot of it. (and then moaned for an hour because we were so full, yet would have eaten more). This stew is one of … Continue reading
