Blast from the Past: THE PRINCESS BRIDE Reunion


One of my all-time favorite movies is THE PRINCESS BRIDE. It's just so quotable, romantic, funny, and I truly love everything about it.  It's crazy that this film is as old as I am! The cast reunited on Good Morning America to talk about filming and how fans still approach them about it today. What's your favorite quote?

I'm torn between "Have fun storming the castle!" and "My name is Inigo Montoya, you killed my father, prepare to die."

Watch Carey Elwes, Robin Wright, Chris Sarandon, Wallace Shawn, Billy Crystal, and more after the break.

I love the 90s: Flashback Video



Born in the late '80s, I grew up in the 90s and loved nearly everything mentioned in this video. It's like the entirety of VH1's I Love The 90s, condensed down into a 4 minute video. Relive your childhood by watching the video after the break!

THE GOONIE'S Chunk is all grown up!


One of my favorite movies growing up was THE GOONIES. I loved the adventure, the humor, just everything! Sean Astin, Corey Feldman, and Josh Brolin basically got their start on the film and have gone on to some major projects since then. Well, Corey Feldman kind of peaked in the 80s, but the other two are still working today. But what happened to Chunk? The goofy, kind of chubby kid who introduced the Truffle Shuffle to the world?

Find out after the break.

A Look Back at 2010


The year is almost over and everybody is doing Top 10 lists or looking back through the year. Since my blog actually existed throughout the whole year, here's a look at some of the best and most popular posts of 2010!

As a huge dance fan, the first half of the year was dominated by America's Best Dance Crew and So You Think You Can Dance posts and reviews. Some of the most popular posts were videos of my favorite routines.
The Top 5 SYTYCD posts are:
1. If I Were a Boy by Lauren and Dominic
2. Collide
3. A short playlist I drew up from Season 6 continued to be popular in the new year
4. Fix You
5. Mad World



The Top 5 ABDC posts are:
1. ABDC: Illusion Challenge
2. ABDC: Season 5 Finale
3. ABDC: Champions for Charity
4. ABDC: South Regional Crews
5. ABDC: Hip Hop Nation and Last Chance Challenge

And of course, my most popular blog post is the write up I did about the Jabbawockeez Vegas show, winners of the first season and the biggest success to come out of ABDC. They're still in Vegas over half a year later and if you can, go watch it!

While a lot of my most popular posts are about those two dance shows, I also posted a lot about movies and TV.
Here are the Top 8 Movie/TV posts:
1. Dreamworks Face 
2. Scott Pilgrim vs. The World Soundtrack
3. Jimmy Fallon's Gummi Bear Song 
4. Antoine Dodson at Hogwarts
5. I'm cheating on this one, but San Diego Comic Con posts were really popular and a whole lot of fun!
6. While the post is from last year, the Harry Potter vs. Twilight debate rages on.
7. Chuck is still one of my favorite shows, here are 10 Reasons Why You Should Be Watching
8. We take for granted just how much work goes into television. This video revealing just how much is green screen shows that a simple shot of people walking outside is more than meets the eye.

This year I also started a one off blog for the month long road trip I took with my boyfriend (now fiancĂ©!!!), started a tumblr or two, wrote for a few awesome websites, and overall just continued to be addicted to the internet.

Here's to a fantastic 2010 and an even more promising 2011!

"Last Kiss" by J. Frank Wilson and The Cavaliers



I remember liking this song as a child, sitting in the car while my parents played the Oldies radio station. It just came on my Pandora station and I heard the lyrics for the first time since then. I definitely did not remember how sad it is! As a child, I just liked that poppy beat and the lyric "Where oh where can my baby be?"

It's crazy revisiting things from my childhood and finding things I never noticed/was too young to comprehend at the time.

Jimmy Fallon Reunites California Dreams



Ah, memories of waking up early Saturday to watch Saved by the Bell and California Dreams. Jimmy Fallon, keep it up! Maybe do "Hey Dude" or "Salute Your Shorts" next?
