Episode 1.8: Treachery

Spoilers!

For some reason I didn’t enjoy this episode as much as I have the others. The glaring looks and the dramatic orchestrations were just getting on my nerves. I also kept wondering how I was going to write about two people who have switched identities without confusing people. Revenge is not making my job easy.

On the other hand, my husband thinks I didn’t like it as much because I didn’t have to yell at the TV this week. He could be right about that one. Episode 8 was pretty slow paced compared to the others we’ve seen; I guess I can accept that since it was definitely prepping us for something more.

If you remember from two weeks ago, “Real” Emily is in the picture, she has just killed Frank, and seeks out our Emily. As always – total drama.

Susan Egan, Belle on Broadway, releases new album

I’m a big fan of Susan Egan’s work for Disney. In 1995, I saw her at the Shubert Theater in LA as Belle. I loved the voice work she did for Miyazaki’s films (Lin in Spirited Away was great), and, of course, Meg from Hercules… Read More »Susan Egan, Belle on Broadway, releases new album

Modern Family: Season 3, Episode 8 – After the Fire

Maybe it’s because we had to wait two weeks for a new episode, or maybe it’s because Modern Family is an Emmy-sweeping hilarious comedy, but I couldn’t stop laughing during this week’s episode. (Or maybe it’s just because we saw Cam “sleep clowning.) A neighborhood… Read More »Modern Family: Season 3, Episode 8 – After the Fire

Disney/Pixar just released the first full length trailer for Brave. Brave opens in US theaters June 22, 2012. I thought the artistry was beautiful and the story better than I had hoped.

Military Family Officially Launches Disneyland’s Holiday Season

There is no season like Holiday season at Disneyland. The park is known for big kick off moments from Santa installing a giant star atop the Matterhorn (remember that?) to Bob Hope lighting things up with a swing of his golf club. But the trend as of late has been to invite a veteran family from the nation’s armed forces to do the honor.

This year, the Disneyland Resort invited Gunnery Sgt. Derrick Poteat, a veteran of Operation Iraqi Freedom from the 13th Marine Expeditionary Unit’s S-6 communication platoon, and his family to “flip the switch” on more than 300,000 holiday lights blanketing “it’s a small world” Holiday, transforming the popular attraction into a visual wonderland and officially launching the holiday season at the Disneyland Resort.

The ceremony, presented by the attraction’s sponsor, Sylvania, honored Poteat and his family for the contributions they have made to our country. Poteat, who enlisted in the Marine Corps in 1996, has completed three tours and recently returned from the latest, a seven-month deployment in the Middle East. He was joined by his three children, nephew, niece and wife, Clarice, an advisor to the 13th Marine Expeditionary Unit’s family readiness team, for a day of play at the Disneyland Resort followed by this special honor.

Video of the ceremony and more is below the jump:
