80s Movie Montages — "You’re The Best!"

February 26, 2012 by Jessica

There are times that I wish my life featured a movie montage -- usually during some daunting or impossible task. I can picture some amazing, upbeat and inspiring 80's pop song playing: clips of me doing some sort of work related to the project, friends showing up to help do something, there's that look of "oh no, I'm not sure we can do this" and then the chorus to the song … [Read more...] about 80s Movie Montages — "You’re The Best!"

Beverly Hills, What a Thrill!

February 26, 2012 by Liz Belsky

("This kind of thing" being any teen movie – no matter how poorly written, plotted … [Read more...] about Dirty Dancing Gone Wrong

Ahoy Ye Teenies

Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl isn't so much a movie as it's an event - albeit a highly entertaining one. And since we all know that attending an event takes careful planning, here's some things you should know before you get thee to the nearest theatre. Pirates is based on a ride from Disney World, and therefore is light on plot. There's this pirate … [Read more...] about Ahoy Ye Teenies

PopGurls for Thought

I had to show Lennon my butt rash. I didn’t know what was going on and I needed a second opinion, and I certainly wasn’t going to get my husband involved. So in our little office, I had to show it to her. That’s real. - "Jessica St. Clair"
