Sex and the City 2 and a French disappointment:

Sex and the City 2


SATC fans this one is for you! Despite the horror reviews given to Sex and the City 2, I have to say I really enjoyed it! I laughed out loud, clapped my hands and threw my head back in response to the humor and outrageousness that only SATC could bring to the big screen. To be honest, I went there expecting not to like it. Although I am a huge SATC fan, I really hated these ads…


I just felt they were overly air brushed and cheesy. These ads did not do the movie justice. Yes, the movie was over the top, rich and glamorous but the whole “New Middle East experience” was to die for and the ads should have played more on that.


I don’t believe in spoilers, so I won’t give too much away. Samantha manages to work a public relations deal to get herself and the girls an all expense paid trip to Abu Dhabi. What starts out to be the trip of a life time, quickly turns sour when Samantha finds that public displays of kissing or sex are forbidden. Miranda turns out to be the fun and exciting one in the movie for a change, which was refreshing. She quits her job and invests her energy in exploring the Abu Dhabi culture. Charlotte finds herself relieved from her mommy duties, as Carrie is looking for a cure for what she fears will be the end of her and Mr. Big’s exciting Marriage. In her search to find that sparkle in her life that once made her feel alive she runs into an old flame, AIDAN!!! <3

OMG he is just Gorgeous!!!!

What happens next? You have to watch to find out, but I promise you, if you’re a fan you will not be disappointed. The only part of the movie which was horrible was the Karaoke scene but I definitely recommend this one!

As for myself I realized it’s not a boyfriend I need but an Indian butler like Guarau..::wink, wink::


Lol…here are some pics of Zoe, Jona and I having our Pink Punk Cosmos before the SATC movie ^_^

A French Disappointment

As promised, I went to Park Slope with my friend Jona a little over a week ago to Café Moutarde, to check out one of the locations in which Julie/ Julia was filmed, and it was closed!!!! It turns out that it’s under going renovations, which was very upsetting for me for a couple of reasons: 1) We were hungry and 2) this means the inside will now look different to when the movie was filmed :( I will give it another shot soon but I have to call and find out when they plan on reopening. So here are some pictures of my French disappointment:

Closed :(

"Apollo Creed meets the Italian Stallion, Sounds like a damn monster movie." Rocky (1976)

I took these pictures in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania at the famous steps that Rocky Balboa ran up. There are 72 steps to be exact, they can be seen in Rocky and its sequels II, III, IV and Rocky Balboa. The steps actually lead to the Philadelphia Museum of Art. Of course when I got there I ran up the steps and it's not as difficult as one may have imagined. I watched children and older folks run up the steps as well =) It was a snowy day but it was beautiful all the same.

In the foot steps of a Champ! ;)

Victory is mine!

hahaha...that was a fun movie site too visit!!


Next I'm planning on going to the cafe in Carol Gardens where Julie/ Julia was filmed. I have a few more pictures to post of other Movies I've done. If you know of any cool places in New York where a movie was filmed, please let me know. I'm always looking for new spots.

I'm sorry, Big Daddy!

Here is to my 2 followers that actually keep up with my blog...I'm very sorry for letting the ball drop, I have heard back from a couple of you wondering what happened? Honestly, I have not made the time to update and it seems that keeping up my blog will be close to impossible in the coming months. Although I can talk movies all day, responsibility has a different agenda. I will do my best to update biweekly, again when and if school and work will allow it.



I had promised before to show you some pictures that I took at the Hooters in the city where Big Daddy was filmed, so here they are:



I went with a few friends to check out the place, I had never been there and I was pleasantly surprised. The food was fantastic and I would definitely go back for those buffalo wings!







Always a good time when I'm out with Dee and Phyllis <3


This was pretty cool, they had the clothes that Kristy Swanson (Vanessa) wore in the film and a few pictures of the movie.
