"The Sure Thing" nabs a three thumbs up!

What can be said about the perfect last movie to close Chapter 1 of Twinflix entertainment? Everything's there-- the brilliantly funny and awkwardly handsome protagonist who happens to be a freshman at an east coast school desperate to get to the west coast. And perfectly, there's the intelligent, beautiful femme fatale who is overtly nerdy but covertly game- Daphne this movie is a Twinflix dream for you....unlock it and breath in every minute of the crazy-fabulous ride! Chapter 2 of Twinflix....can't wait to live it, experience it and review it ... inquiring minds want to know, what is the purrfect movie to begin the next chapter?

Bon Jovi night= success!!!!







Words can not describe how fabulous Bon Jovi was this past Thursday! Jon Bon Jovi has won a bigger place in our hearts, especially after his on-stage deck change (for 48, he looks good with his shirt off). Our hips were thrusting to "Living on a Prayer" and "You Give Love a Bad Name" like there was no tomorrow and our seats were especially excellent, off to the side in a box, in a very cool VIP area. Bruce fans and Bon Jovi fans are definitely different, as there were more leather jackets and stiletto boots at Staples, as well as no pit, but fun was had by all. We didn't need to know every song in the catalog to enjoy this 2 hour music fest, along with a more-than-decent opening act, Dashboard Confessional. So the overall rating? It was Twin-tastic! Bon Jovi has definitely held up over the years; Jon's voice is as good as it's ever been. And Richie Sambora (although a terrible dresser and kind of gross) is still a phenomenal guitar player! This definitely is a legendary Twin event!

Review- Dear John


Being the cinematic emotional wreck that I am, I was "inconsolable" during this silver screen adaption of Nicholas Spark's novel. Set during the summer of 2001, it tells the story of Savanna and John and their war-ravaged relationship blooming from the "accidental" fall of Savanna's purse into the ocean. Spanning across about 6 years (more or less, although by looking at Amanda Seyfried, you'd never be able to tell), the fairy tale happy ending can not be expected from this tear-jerker. Sweet and sappy, cute and date-night perfect, it was a nice calm-down for a Saturday afternoon. And just a side note- although this picture was not taken this Saturday (it was taken when we went to see "When in Rome" last weekend), it's fully appropriate due to the poster in the back. Also, it exemplifies what happens when the twins don't call each other before meeting up.

Just because...


TOO FAB NOT TO POST!!!!!

A little late, but still....



Halloween '09 still deserves documentation! Although not as exciting as I had hoped (last minute cancellation... drat!) the 'rents had a grand old time as we once again paraded the streets of West Hollywood to merge with those just as enthusiastic about dressing up as we were. My father reprized his legendary role as "Scary"King while I opted for the much more sensual Jessica Rabbit. My mother. the maverick, went as some sort of ghoul-witch that, despite some doubt, turned out very eerie. It was a fun night with some great sights and even a special TV spot for my all-too-willing father! So let's take down the pumpkins and retire the Jack-O-Lantern; Thanksgiving is coming up fast and we need to strategize and prepare in every way possible!

It's Official: The Twins are Rockers!


On the road again, the twins took Cleveland by storm, where all that is rock and roll comes together: The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and yet another fabulous Bruce Concert. Other crazed fans converged as well--a concert and a retrospective at the HOF...what real fan could pass it up! And as expected, Hall of Famers took one look at the twins, and immediately inducted them...unfortunately their resumes were a bit light for a dedicated exhibit space. Let's review 2 key credentials: the subject matter expertise in all that is Bruce Springsteen, and the uncontested courage and willingness to break into song and dance regardless of location and quality of the song (as long as it's got a good beat and easy to dance to...). Although the D and D argued their case...the only case they left with was a small plastic guitar case with a t shirt, a couple of buttons, a lunch bag, and unlimited admission for the next 12 months. Fabulous photo includes Vancouver twin favorite Mo who joined in the festivities. Tramps like us...baby we were born to run!

Halloween + Almost Full Moon = Ali Babba and the Cowboy


This Halloween equation perfectly sums up a monster mish/mash celebration at Do's. Bonfire, pizza, and kettle corn (sorry lil' D, we didn't save you any...kind of a debacle if you know what I mean!); add in fabulous neighbors, miscellaneous board members and a 2 year old monkey with a banana in her pocket who thought the party was in her honor (and honestly, it kind of turned out to be)--well that basically encapsulates Halloween 2009. Great fun and a narrow escape from diving head first into a vortex of pizza and artichoke dip (phew!), basically another grand recipe for top rated twinflix entertainment. Wish you could have been there Daphne!
