Know The Actor Who Plays The Scary Clown In IT? Yeah, He’s Super Hawt!

Obsessively Awesome Movies

While everyone on the internet has spent the past few days marveling over the super hot emergency workers down in Florida, I'm just sitting here staring at pictures of Ben Skarsgård and wondering how they made someone so ridiculously beautiful look so terrifyingly scary in IT? Yeah, that actor who plays the scary clown in IT? He's super hawt. So at this point I think we know the story behind IT. We know about the clown, and the missing kids. We know Stephen King isn't scared of clowns like the rest of us. There are some other cool things, too. Like, in the book Pennywise comes up out of Keep Reading >>>

Because Being A Parent Isn’t Hard Enough Already, Disney Just Pulled Their Entire Library Off Netflix

Obsessively Awesome Movies

This is not a drill, folks: your littles are about to have a meltdown and right now there's nothing you can do to change that. Disney has decided to pull their entire library off of streaming giant, Netflix, so it can hack out its own piece of the streaming pie. Sometime in 2019, Disney will be launching its own streaming service, and according to CNBC their entire library will be made available for all to view. For a price... So let's just go over this again: because being a parent isn't hard enough already, Disney just pulled their entire library off Netflix. Because Being A Parent Keep Reading >>>

Chris Pratt And Anna Faris Splitting Up Is The Adult Version Of Finding Out Santa Isn’t Real

Obsessively Awesome Movies

When we marry our sweetheart most of the time we're young, kinda dumb, and basically broke. I mean, a lot of us, at least. Let's get real: most of us do not have the fairytale marriage that we dreamed of when we were five. You know, that marriage we practiced out with the Barbie and Ken Santa brought us for Christmas? But we're happy. And happy gets you pretty far in life. There are bad days, but they are far outweighed by the good days. And part of those good days is looking up to other couples who have made it and are living the life you wish you had. For me, it was Chris Pratt and Anna Keep Reading >>>

Here’s Everything That’s Coming To Netflix In August

Because, YouTube...

If you're a Netflix hound like me, the end of the month is your least favorite time, and the beginning is the best. At the end of each month, Netflix gets rid of a bunch of movies...sometimes your favorites...sometimes ones that were in your list but you hadn't quite made it to them yet. And it's heartbreaking. But, all is well because each new month brings a list of brand new shows to add to the list and August is going to be GLORIOUS! Take a look! Did your favorites make the list? What did you lose that you can't live without (Futurama, amirite?)? Tell us about it in the comments Keep Reading >>>

Turns Out I’m A Hufflepuff. Thanks A Lot, Sorting Hat!

So, I was at a conference (sort of) recently and seated for dinner with other writer/reader types—who are also good friends I get to see not often enough—when the conversation turned, as it does, to Hogwarts’ houses. Look, don’t even pretend you haven’t had the “what house would you be in” conversation, or secretly sorted all your friends and enemies into their appropriate common rooms. Maybe not for a while, but Harry Potter hasn’t ever dimmed on the public consciousness, not with the theme parks and now a new movie. And there’s Pottermore sort of like a fansite, but official. Now, the Keep Reading >>>

It’s Cranston Vs. Cranston In This Funny ‘Why Him’ Trailer Parody!

Because, YouTube...

This is the movie I've been waiting for my whole life. Okay, maybe not my whole life. Maybe just since I saw Breaking Bad. In fact, ever since I saw Breaking Bad I've imagined Walt in all of Bryan Cranston's roles. I can't help it. He was That Good. But with Why Him coming out, it was hard for me to imagine Bryan Cranston as a loving family man without thinking of his cold-blooded, meth manufacturing counterpart. Thank goodness for Funny Or Die. They think like I think, and thus I bring you, "WHY WALT". Take a look! So the trailer for WHY HIM looks hysterical by itself, but this Keep Reading >>>

You Won’t Believe The Willy Wonka Dream House This Man Built!

Obsessively Awesome Movies

Growing up there are certain stories that stick with us. Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory was a big one for me. The bright colors, odd characters, and of course mounds and mounds of candy. The idea that a little boy could win a magic ticket to a fantasy land and have a chance to see all his dreams come true was too big a dream for me to ever want to let go of. Turns out, I'm not alone. Part Lewis Carroll, part Tim Burton, there is a playground-builder in Germany who took over where Willy Wonka left off! You Won't Believe The Willy Wonka Dream House This Man Built!

How Princess Leia Changed The World

Heavy Handed Advice

Princess Leia changed my life. This is not hyperbole. I come from a pre-Katniss, pre-Buffy-the-Vampire-Slayer, pre-Hillary-Clinton era. I know this makes me sound old, but I grew up in Texas, so subtract like ten years from the female empowerment timeline. Oh, we had Governor Ann Richards, but she was considered an aberration. There was Ripley from Alien(s), but that was R-Rated, so I wasn’t allowed to see it. (Even though I did, because HBO.) The awesomeness of Sigourney Weaver’s casting deserves its own post, but in Alien, her femininity was (deliberately) not a factor. And I was a Keep Reading >>>

My ‘It’s A Wonderful Life’ Moment And How It Changed My Life

Heavy Handed Advice

When I was very young (around the age of 5 or whenever the hell it is you start having actual memories), I liked my December birthday. It’s Christmas Eve. Being close to a holiday that my siblings and friends were excited about made me feel special. My Mom used to jokingly call me ‘Kyle Christmas’ (my middle name is actually Christopher) and say that I was the best Christmas present she ever got (I think that’s still true…). As I got older, I started to like it less and less. I was an awkward kid and I didn’t have a lot of friends growing up. That didn’t change until late middle school, Keep Reading >>>

This Guy Set AVENGERS To The Theme Of Full House…And It’s AMAZING!

Obsessively Awesome Movies

If you were alive in the late 80's, early 90's, there is no WAY you missed Full House. Okay, so you might have pretended to be too cool for it, but anyone who was anyone either had a crush on Uncle Jesse, or thought Joey was the funniest person they'd ever heard of, or thought Danny was the square dad they wanted. And can we TALK about Steve? Um, *drool factory*. So yeah, when Fuller House came out early this year, I 'may' have watched it in a day. Okay, yeah, less than a day. It was the binge to end all binges. Steve didn't age as well as I'd expected him to. Uncle Jesse aged WAY BETTER than Keep Reading >>>

Top 3 Horror Movies For Making A Man Out Of Your Little Girl

Heavy Handed Advice

If you are a strong-willed, articulate parent like I am, you’ll no doubt agree that cowardice is for dummy-stupidheads. Don’t get me wrong, if you’re afraid to jab a stick into a rabid dog in the eye there’s nothing wrong with you, you’re smart. In fact, congratulations because you’re smarter than I am. But we all know someone who’s afraid of stupid things like bugs, or traveling, or something funny for a third thing. I hate cowardice. And, hey, I’m guilty of it. I hate it in myself just as much as those around me. Cowardice is the Two Broke Girls of human traits; it’s not funny and we should Keep Reading >>>

Everything I Am Feeling About The Beauty and The Best Remake

Obsessively Awesome Movies

Yesterday something glorious happened. The teaser trailer for the new Beauty and the Best movie starring none other than HERMIONE herself came out. From the very moment the screen went black to start off the monologue at the beginning of the first Disney Beauty and the Best movie I was hooked. This movie had everything. Daring sword fights, magic spells, far off places, a prince in disguise. :P And I loved it. I have easily seen it over a hundred times. I can recite most of it without even turning on the movie. It's safe to say I am more than just an aficionado, I am an expert. So, Keep Reading >>>

Can We Please Stop This Trend of Gender Bending Movie Reboots Before It Starts?

Obsessively Awesome Movies

When I first heard the news that there was going to be a Ghostbusters reboot with an all-female cast, I was mostly just confused. For me, it was one of those "why fix what isn't broken?" moments, because the original is such a classic. It was a movie that must have sounded ridiculous before it was made, but that went on to become one of those iconic comedy films that everyone seems to remember, even if they haven't seen it in ages. And even with the reboot's cast of brilliant and hilarious women, I just can't seem to muster up the same amount of excitement for it that my friends have...and I Keep Reading >>>

Elsa’s Frozen Candies with Coconut Buttercream Filling

Death By Dessert

Some people might call what's happening outside in the Northern Hemisphere a "winter wonderland." Personally, I like to call it various slightly inappropriate words that I'm not allowed to use on this website. Either way, we can probably all agree on the fact that it's rather...frozen out there. Luckily, there are several ways to combat the cold weather, the most important of which is hiding out under a pile of blankets in bed eating enough sugary treats to make a room full of school kids jealous. But which treats should you try? Well, Elsa's Frozen Candies with Coconut Buttercream Filling Keep Reading >>>

Star Wars AT-AT Coloring Page

AT-ATs have got to be the most misunderstood beings in the Star Wars universe. Those big metal beasts are really just gentle giants looking for a little love.

To Me, Snape Will Always Be A Hero…RIP Alan Rickman

Alan Rickman is (and always will be) one of my favorite actors ever. The first time I ever saw him was as he played Hans Gruber in Die Hard. At the time I was too young to really know much about him, but I knew I hated him. My dad told me that was a good thing...that meant he was a good actor. Over the years I've watched him play hated character after hated character and somehow I fell in love with him. I don't know if it was his voice, or his eyes. Maybe the way he carried himself on screen, or the truly kind way he talked to his fans, but I fell in love. I think maybe it was Galaxy Quest. Keep Reading >>>

David Bowie, Farewell Goblin King. You Will Be Missed

Obsessively Awesome Movies

When I was in middle school, we had a lot of slumber parties, and at every single one of these slumber parties, we watched THE LABYRINTH. (It's even one of my top ten favorite movies of all time.) I didn't know it then, but David Bowie is and always will be a big part of who I am today. To me, Jareth wasn't the evil Goblin King who took away Sarah's baby brother, Toby. He was the guy who loved a nerdy girl that couldn't bring herself to get her nose out of a book. And that girl was me. "And, Hoggle if she ever kisses you, I will turn you into a Prince." "Y-You Will?" "Prince Keep Reading >>>

Ricky Gervais Just KILLED IT At The Golden Globes

Obsessively Awesome Movies

Just in case you've been under a rock, I'm going to go ahead and call this one as NSFW. There is no cursing or anything more than innuendo, but c'mon, it's Ricky Gervais. If you've got kids in the room, or kids in general, maybe don't watch this. No, you should still watch it, it's pretty amazingly funny...and no one was immune. Ricky Gervais definitely held back a bit to keep it 'air friendly', but that's it... I mean, it's Ricky Gervais. No one expected it wouldn't be hilarious, but I think we all kind of held our breath to see if he'd go too far...and while he definitely walked the Keep Reading >>>

Why Watching Adam Driver Play Kylo Ren Was Weird…And Awesome.

WARNING: This post contains spoilers for both Star Wars: The Force Awakens and HBO's Girls.

The Time I Asked My Grandmother-In-Law if She Wanted to Get Busy

Heavy Handed Advice

If you know me personally, you know that I'm usually pretty good in social situations. I'm quick with the wit, don't always smell bad, and remember to flush. But my husband's grandmother makes me nervous. She's old world, as in schooled at a French convent, forks in the right place, English isn't her first language (French is), and you better know what color wine to serve, kind of frightening. I only see her about once a year, but I think that only makes it worse. I feel like I have nine hours to make a good impression that has to last until our next visit.
