Working at the New Beverly Cinema is, to be sure, a pretty sweet ass job. I get to watch movies at work (and get paid!), eat all of the free candy and popcorn I like, and get to program festivals with film makers I admire. Let me just start off by saying that… Continue reading
Bring back gimmicks. I’m talking William castle-style seat tingling, skeleton flying, life insurance waver signing type gimmicks. I went and saw two 3D movies this weekend and had a blast. Nothing makes you feel more like a kid than reaching out to see if… Continue reading
Being a non-drinker in 2009 is an interesting thing. I don’t drink because I don’t like the way it tastes, and because it makes me sick. These reasons, I’ve found, aren’t good enough. People look at me like I just sprung a second head that looks like… Continue reading
It happened. I joined the cult of Twilight. It was an accident. I have always been the kind of person who shuns popular media. Harry Potter makes me puke, Oprah's book club is nauseating, Heroes and Lost pedestrian. I never give any of these things a chance,… Continue reading

So we all know that Snickers is the best selling candy bar world wide. People feel (and this is something I have tested working behind the candy counter at the new bev) that if a candy bar has peanuts in it that it is healthier for them. No joke. This is why… Continue reading
So I just now figured out that you can watch TV episodes online. Duh. I'm sure all of you have been doing this for months or years now, and I discovered it last week. Lame. The thing is that I don't have cable. My best friend/roomie Emily and I decided when… Continue reading
Blogging is weird. it's one of those things that although I enjoy, I don't fully understand. The internet has made it possible for all of us to be connected worldwide, natch. But sometimes I just wonder what the point of it is. I can't imagine anyone wanting… Continue reading
