Walking Tall, Scorpion King, the Rundown.  I was actually starting to get a little impressed with The Rock.  Could he really be America's big action star?  Someone to take the place of the 80s heroes like Stallone, Schwarzanegger, and Van Damme?  Not a far stretch, he's got good size, attitude, and a pretty good track record for kicking ass.  That is, until…

The Game Plan?!  Ah man, why do all the wannabe action heroes have to spoil their street cred with an obligatory Disney family move (anyone remember Vin Diesel in the Pacifier?). I'm not saying this movie is going to suck…it may very well be a hit, but it definitely softens the image of a tough guy we wanna see kick some celluloid ass. 

 
 ThreadBanger podcast is a do-it-yourself fashion with a rock en espanol feel to it.  The host Rob and Corrine are quite hilarious and down to earth.  They show you how to do some of the projects using simple things that you probably already own in your closet.  As their motto goes: The first network for people who make their own fashion.

Here is a sample of their show:

The dynamic duo Badgley Mischka did it again. Their New York ready-to-wear spring 2008 collection looks fabulous!  Clean lines, hints of art deco and casual wear shown in their collection.

Here are my favorites from their collection.

 I was watching the video of Carolina Herrera's New York spring 2008 collection, and I got to say I feel lukewarm on the overall collection.  I have seen her other collections in the past that has wowed me before…

This collection feels like a spring [flowers] bouquet.  One thing I do love about her collection is the luxurious fabric she uses.  There are some pieces that I would wear right of the runway.

Ok, so I know Halloween's like over a month away, but I gotta admit it's one of my favorite holidays. Wild parties, crazy costumes, and free candy.  You can't go wrong with that!  And if you live in SoCal, one of the best spook-filled traditions has to be Knotts Scary Farm.  An amusement park open from 7p to 1a, it's full of horror themed mazes, creepy rides, and wicked monsters popping out of every dark corner.  Tons of fun and definitely worth checking out if you're in the neighborhood of Buena Park, CA.
