Best Supporting Actress: Lena Heady, Game of Thrones

Lena Headey

Game of Thrones‘ ”Blackwater” episode was justifiably praised for its movie-worthy vision of an epic medieval battle. But for my money, the best parts of the episode belonged to Lena Headey

Every now and then, I will find it necessary to break protocol to tend to my extremely large Netflix queue. This is one of those times. 

There’s the old standard that Literature teachers the world-over use in their classes: the book is always better than the movie. Being someone old enough to have made a good amount of mistakes it is hard for me to speak in such absolutes; I find it trite and, most of the time, easy to debunk. However, sometimes you do find the exception that proves the rule but, for the most part, the statements are usually weak and conflict becomes inevitable because it is a completely subjective view of the piece.

When the film was announced I sought out a synopsis of Suzanne Collins‘ novel

For those of you who are unaware of what a girl crush really is, Urban Dictionary defines a this feeling as

when a girl has a crush on another girl, but they don’t wanna date them. It’s more like they wanna be their best friend.

which is exactly how I feel about these women I’m about to confess my very friendly, non-stalkerish girl crush on. Sure, I admire Julia Roberts, but I do not have a girl crush on her. I don’t want to be her best friend. Because that would just entail a whole lot of disappointment on her end. I would be so starstruck every time I got a text from her and I would practically never be able to keep my cool without the help of pharmaceutical drugs, which would result in me being dropped from her posse soon after meeting her. Understandably so. I’m not saying…

Press Release – 20th Century Fox

“Ruby Sparks” is the story of a novelist’s vision who inexplicably comes to life, only to prove far more complicated than even he could have imagined.  With a light touch and a dash of magical realism, the first screenplay from actress and playwright Zoe Kazan attracted the attention of Jonathan Dayton & Valerie Faris, the married team who directed the run-away hit “Little Miss Sunshine.”  The film takes an unpredictable route into fantasy, identity and the ways we invent love – and how love can re-invent us.

Paul Dano plays Calvin, a celebrated author in his younger years who hasn’t had a follow up novel years after his first breakthrough novel.  Struggling with writer’s block, disappointed and unfulfilled, his close relationships are with his dog and his brother. Calvin who is cut off and isolated is constantly being urged by his married brother Harry…

A lifetime's exploration

 

Sunrise at Uluru, otherwise known as Ayers Rock in Australia, is simply beautiful. The air is clean and cool on the skin, the dry smell of the desert clings to your nostrils and you grasp your camera tightly gazing ahead and waiting for that amazing vista as the sun drenches the face of the rock in front of you.

Poetic prose aside, visiting Uluru must be on everyone’s bucket list and no trip Down Under would be complete with out visiting the aboriginal sight in the flesh, to circle its base and experience the magical transformations of light and shadow from different angles throughout the day.

When I visited it was an option to climb the rock if you were feeling energetic, however the aboriginal peoples do not like tourists scaling Uluru as it is a site of great spiritual importance to their culture, as it crosses a dreamtime

Before I get into this I want to say that I’m not going to talk about things like lag or server overflow (which they handled very well by even having overflow servers) mostly because those are issues that usually come with an MMOs release and generally subside over time, no I’m just here to talk about the game and the only time I plan on talking about anything technical is if it needs to be said. I’m probably going to spend a lot of time comparing this to WoW, not because it’s the best MMO out there but it does seem to be what most MMOs are compared to, but a lot of the comparisons work in GW2’s favor I can already tell you that.

Anyone that knows me knows that I’ve only showed mild interest in GW2 and a large reason for that is because in the past year…
