    Bahama Breeze Blogger’s Tasting

    January 22, 2013 /

    I’m always giddy when I get invites to events and screenings from unfamiliar PR Agencies; because it means what little I understand and try to make happen in terms of SEO (Search Engine Optimization) is working! Last week the Caribbean influenced chain restaurant Bahama Breeze Island Grille invited food writers to come and sip their two new Legendary Island Cocktails: The pink drink Yaka Hula Hickey Dula, named after a Hawaiian love song, features pineapple juice blended with Meyers’ Dark and Bacardi 151 –  This drink was a bit strong for me, the bartender told me to stir it some more to bring out the flavors of the juice, but…

    As the preview screening of Guillermo del Toro’s horror film Mama, came closer and closer, the more I was tempted to cancel my reservation out of fear.  As previously mentioned, I’m too susceptible to supernatural movies.  I think it’s because I believe that ANYTHING no matter how far fetched or out of this world, is possible. And this open-mindedness, combined with living alone, can really set my imagination working over-time. But to my relief and disappointment. MAMA isn’t very scary.  It’s creepy, and at times disturbing, but it certainly doesn’t have that melancholy, haunting, can’t shake it feeling of The Orphanage, nor is it darkly sinister.  The movie is based…

    Guest Blogger: 18th Annual Critics Choice Awards Round Up

    January 14, 2013 /

    I had a great time posting stuff to facebook and twitter during the Golden Globe red carpet and awards! Check out both platforms for Tinsel & Tine’s thoughts on the show! My friend and guest blogger Candace Smith likes to tweet during awards shows too, when I saw her comments on The Critics Choice Awards,  I asked her if she’d write a Round Up post on the show for Tinsel &Tine, and she had plenty to impart: The People’s Choice Awards aired on Wednesday, kicking off the start to the 2013 awards season for the entertainment industry. However, I believe that the Critics’ Choice Awards truly kick off the season,…

    Paranormal Parody – A Haunted House

    January 12, 2013 /

    @marlonlwayans #AHauntedHouse is a bad title, too generic, no black people are gonna call it this, why didn't u just go with Paranormal Blacktivity? Ur writing is raunchy, juvenile, stupid, racial and ridiculous yet I LOL'd so much in spite of myself. This movie will find it's core audience and they'll be lovin :-D the whole thing!
