The First Fruits – Apple: JOBS movie
I’m strictly a Windows and Android kinda girl. Probably due to financial constraints. But even when I do win the Publishers Clearing House $5000 A Week for Life, not a commercial, truly my destiny! I’ll still probably stick with Windows and Android over Apple because it’s what I know. With that being said, I was still highly anticipating the biopic Jobs directed by Joshua Michael Stern. Why? Because Steve Job’s life represents the world we’re so immersed in on a daily basis – Technology! How involved was Apple? JMS: They weren’t [involved] at all. They don’t have anything to gain by coming out for or against it. All of…

The Rittenhouse Hotel Interview – Lee Daniels & Cuba Gooding, Jr: LEE DANIELS’ THE BUTLER
by Le Anne Lindsay, Editor Since April, anxiety has been my constant companion. I’ve been out of work and living on my savings, trying to figure out how to make what I love, writing this blog and the social media aspects of it, what I do. I’m no closer to figuring it all out, but sometimes you get a sign from the Universe that says you’re on the right track, keep going! That sign came in the form of an email from Allied-THA which asked me if I’d want to interview director Lee Daniels, actor Cuba Gooding, Jr and actress Yaya Alafia at the swanky Rittenhouse Hotel, to discuss Lee…

Four Seasons Philadelphia Interview: Ryan Coogler: FRUITVALE STATION
by Le Anne Lindsay, Editor I knew nothing about the true events which Fruitvale Stationis based upon – I’m sure the controversial racial implications of OscarGrant’s death reached the East Coast, but sometimes I go undergroundnews wise for weeks at a time, and when I emerge, I don’t go back to findout what I missed. I do however pay attention during theSundance Film Festival. And when I read about Fruitvale Station,winning so much praise, I thought, how dramatic can it be? We know theguy dies. But I was so wrong, the film has real heart and emotionalinvolvement because it is so “day in the life of”. As you’re watching…

Henry Cavill: MAN OF STEEL
Well, as I’ve stated in two previous posts: Simply Marvel-ous: The 4 Comic Book Movies You Don’t Want to Miss and Grazing: THIS IS THE END I wholly approve of the new Superman Henry Cavill, I had seen him in the Immortals and I remember him being the only thing good about that movie; but it took him playing The Man of Steel to really capture my attention. I was surprised to also like Amy Adams as Lois Lane. When I first heard she’d be playing the role, I felt she was too over-exposed and that a lesser known actress should play the part. But as this Lois Lane character…

Grazing: THIS IS THE END
I experienced apocalyptic themes twice this week, first with Seth Rogan’s hilarious – what would it be like to experience the end of the world with all my famous friends movie This Is the End, and the next night, with the new gorgeous superMan of Steel, fighting his own race to save ours. My perfect last days scenario would be a combination of both movies – to hole up in a Hollywood mansion with Henry Cavill and hope not to ascend to heaven before he can bring me there himself – in any way he wants to! But lets get back to This Is the End. I can’t begin to…
