Anticipation Empathy Post: Sherlock Season 4

So, let's talk about Sherlock. I know we just got season three but I'm ready for season 4!
Unfortunately Benedict and Martin are super busy and Moffat is working on Doctor Who so it doesn't look like we'll be getting another season anytime soon. *sigh* Brace yourselves for what looks like another 2 year wait for 3 episodes.
In any other fandom the hiatus might be spent worrying about other fandoms and just sitting quietly but this is the Sherlock fandom and we've been crazy since the 1800's. I shall spend my time waiting worrying about other fandoms and enjoying the crazy gifs and theories my fellow holmies come up with.
The last hiatus was painful but a lot of fun and I welcome this one with open arms. (even though it'd still be nice to have season 4 and 5 now)
So in the words of a certain doctor 'allonsy'. It's been an honor going crazy with you.

Psych the Musical

I honestly loved this two hour long episode. it exceeded my expectations with it's catchy music and humorous hijinks. There was also a lot of plot, which was unexpected but not unwelcomed.
 The episode starts out with a quick storybook introduction and a fun musical number called 'Santa Barbara Skies'. Shawn and Gus soon get sucked into a compelling new case where the alleged Z escapes a mental institution and has it out for the new stage production 'Ripper'. With the help of Carlton Lassiter, Juliet O'hara, and Yang, Shawn and Gus have their hands full with this case.
Viewers should note that this episode takes place preseason seven.




Movie Review: Thor 2

So I'm sure everyone and their dog has seen this movie but I'm going to review it anyway.
It was quite simply amazing. The first Thor movie honestly wasn't my favorite but the sequel was awesome.
There were so many good things about this movie. For one it was surprisingly hilarious. I didn't expect it to be so humorous but alas it was. Also Christopher Eccleston playing the bad guy was very awesome for a Doctor Who fan like myself, and not to mention Chris Hemsworth and Tom Hiddleston returning to play Thor and Loki.
I really don't have a lot to say except it was great.

The movie is rated pg-13

Movie Review: You've Got Mail

This charming 90's romantic comedy is funny and cute. It's cozy, mostly clean except for a few suggestive comments, and it stars Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan. It's about two rival bookstore owners: she owns a cozy, family heirloom children's book shop, and he's the owner of a major bookstore chain. The two despise each other in real life, but do not realize that their online chatting partners they're slowly falling in love with...are each other.
You will not regret watching this fun movie.

Parents, this movie is rated PG-13. Here's the link to Kids in Mind:

Book Review: The Sisters Grimm

The Sisters Grimm is a 9 book series written by Micheal Buckley where the leading protagonists Sabrina and Daphne Grimm move to Ferry Port Landing with their Grandma that was said to be dead, after their parents disappeared mysteriously from their home in New York. They soon find out that Ferry Port Landing isn't as ordinary as it seems with the fairy-tale characters trapped in the town by Sabrina and Daphne's ancestors,  the Grimm Brothers. (Kinda like Once Upon a Time, but not really) Sabrina and Daphne soon join the family business and become fairy tale detectives. With the help of Granny Relda, Mr. Canis, Puck, and Elvis their  Great Dane, they solve mysteries and work to bring down the elusive Scarlet Hand.
 I looooooooooooooooooooooooove this series. Every book is just as amazing as the next. I recommend this to anyone who enjoys a good series.

Star Trek Into Darkness Movie Review


Okay so this is a very late review but better late than never I suppose. Anyway if you liked the first movie you'll love the sequel. Chris Pine and Zachary Quinto return to the big screen for a high-action adventure with a spectacular villain played by the fantastic Benedict Cumberbatch going by the name of John Harrison. I admit I didn't actually expect much out of it  (I like Star Wars better than Star Trek don't hate me:) but I was very impressed with how well done the movie was. It kept me on the edge of my seat (and not only because of Benedict) I highly recommend this to anyone who enjoyed the first movie. It was just amazing so if you haven't already get your behind to a red box or to a friends house to see it!

Parents: Um it's rated PG-13 for reasons so I'd check it out here:

Word of the Day: Euphoric

Happy FRIDAY!!! We made it through the week, so let's get a round of applause!!!
*stadium screaming applause*
Why, thank you. I suppose I had a pretty good week as well. September, September. I love it!
So, I suppose we are all pretty euphoric today. Wait, you ask, Hailee, what does euphoric mean? Well, euphoric means overjoyed. Ecstatic. Jubilant. I'm moving on, so if you don't get it by now, too bad. We're all in a case of Friday euphoria, so enjoy it. Go home, eat nachos and watch Duck Dynasty. Live it up.

Si gets euphoric around firecrackers.

(we disclaim duck dynasty to a and e and all associates.)
