Delia: I’m here with you. I will live with you in this hellhole, but I must express myself. If you don’t let me gut out this house and make it my own, I will go insane, and I will take you with me!

Dr. Julian Bashir: Causing people to suffer because you hate them… is terrible. But causing people to suffer because you have forgotten how to care… that’s really hard to understand.

Friday Favorites: Favorite Character – The Fifth Element
Welcome to “Friday Favorites” which highlight some of my favorite movie-related things.
Last week in part 1 of my Friday Favorites devoted to characters from The Fifth Element I talked about how much I enjoy Ruby Rhod as played by Chris Tucker. However, there’s one other character in the film that holds my attention every time he’s onscreen, and that is Gary Oldman’s villainous Jean-Baptiste Emanuel Zorg. Zorg would probably go in my top 10 most memorable film villains of all time. Much like with Ruby Rhod, Zorg is the perfect combination of writing, styling and performance that makes him hard to forget.

Harry started explaining about hidden microphones and recording equipment. Ron was fascinated, but Hermione interrupted them.
“Aren’t you two ever going to read Hogwarts, A History?”
“What’s the point?” said Ron. “You know it by heart, we can just ask you.”

Book Review/Analysis: Allegiant
Warning, this review contains spoilers for the previous books of the series, Divergent and Insurgent.
Allegiant, the third and final book in the Divergent trilogy by Veronica Roth, picks up right where its predecessor left off. At the end of Insurgent the factionless had taken over, doing away with the faction system and killing the leader of the Erudite. A video had been found which revealed that the city was sealed and the faction system put in place in order to fix the problems of the outside world, and that when enough Divergent had appeared they were to emerge into the larger world to fulfill that purpose. Tris and Tobias/Four had reconciled and decided to no longer keep secrets from each other. What we were left with at the end of book two was a long list of questions and an uncertainty as to what could possibly happen next.

Recap: Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. – “F.Z.Z.T.”
After a week off (a bye week, as my best friend called it) SHIELD is back! Last time we got our most mythologically interesting episode to date, which gave us glimpses into Skye’s backstory as well as more information about the mysterious Centipede group. Tonight’s episode set aside the mythology to give us a mysterious investigation and a generous helping of emotion, we learned a lot more about Fitz and Simmons and got some excellent acting from Clark Gregg and company. So without further ado, let’s dive into the amusingly named “F.Z.Z.T.”, written by Paul Zbyszewski and directed by Vincent Misiano.

Lydia: Well, I’ve read through that Handbook for the Recently Deceased. It says: “live people ignore the strange and unusual.” I, myself, am strange and unusual.

Trailer Tuesday: The Hunger Games: Catching Fire
Welcome to “Trailer Tuesday” where I talk about trailers for upcoming movies, since I’ve always found trailers to be endlessly fascinating.
We’ve finally gotten our last trailer for Catching Fire, the 2nd film in the Hunger Games trilogy (or quadrilogy, since they’re splitting the final book into two movies, Harry Potter- and Twilight-style). The film comes out in just a couple weeks, so check out this brief final tease and read on for my comments below:
