Holiday Movies Thoughts…

 


Holiday Movies Have Arrived!!!

It’s that time of year, when you can turn your TVs’, tablets, and phones to any channel or streaming app, you will find a holiday movie/series. The options vary from the classics, to the brand new. The majority have something to do with love and Christmas. 

I have been seeing several via Netflix/Amazon Prime. My mother watches 99.9% over on Lifetime. I use to watch a lot of those Lifetime channel Christmas movies with her, but I started feeling like they were repeating themselves. Different title, different actors, but same idea as year before. I will say I have yet to watch a classic like Elf yet. Here are some of the movies I have watched so far, and just a quick reaction to them. Let me know in comments, what I should be watching. 

CANDY CANE LANE 🎄🎄🎄🎄 (Amazon Prime)
This one was cute and did have me laughing out loud. Guess when a movie has Eddie Murphy in it, laughing is expected. This one I believe everyone in the family will enjoy watching. It’s a good movie, to snuggle on the couch together and drink hot chocolate. 

BEST. CHRISTMAS. EVER! 🎄 🎄 🎄 (Netflix) 
This movie could have been “better”. I liked the storyline, what I was not to fond about was the acting. The level of acting, felt more like a Lifetime movie, than a Netflix. I still think you can watch it, but maybe not the whole family. 

EXmas 🎄 🎄 🎄 🎄 (freevee)
This one I just happen to come across, I almost didn’t watch because of the ads. Glad I did, it was super cute. I liked the chemistry between the actors. It’s not a “family” movie I would say. This is something to watch in bed all cozied up. 

Next up is:
FAMILY SWITCH (TBD)
This film stars Jennifer Garner and Ed Helms.

Release Blitz: The Rules of Dating My One-Night Stand by Penelope Ward | Vi Keeland

 




Title: The Rules of Dating My One-Night Stand
Authors: Penelope Ward & Vi Keeland
Genre: Standalone Contemporary Romance
Release Date: November 12, 2023


BLURB

Rule number one for having a one-night stand: Don’t fall for the girl.
After a lengthy dating slump, I finally met someone who sparked my interest.
Well, first the sparks flew when we argued. Later in the evening those sparks ignited into something more.
I was drawn to Devyn, in a way I hadn’t felt in a really long time.
Needless to say, I was disappointed when she abruptly left after our amazing night together.
I couldn’t stop thinking about her. But she hadn’t even given me her number.
In a city with eight-million people, I figured I’d never see Devyn again.
So imagine my surprise when I knocked on the door of an apartment in the building I lived in, and none other than my one-night stand stood on the other side.
If I thought Devyn didn’t want anything to do with me before, that was nothing compared to how she felt after finding out I was the landlord and she was about to be evicted…
And that was just the first surprise that would rock my world when it came to the mystery woman in apartment 410.

Excited about Penelope Ward & Vi Keeland’s 
upcoming release, The Rules of Dating 
My One-Night Stand? 
Check out this SNEAK PEEK!


“Can I ask you something?”
“What?”
“Were you jealous that I was out with another woman?”
Devyn looked away. “No.”
My lip twitched. “No, huh?”
“I wasn’t jealous.”
It was difficult to keep a straight face, because she was so clearly full of sh$t. But…if she wasn’t jealous, a few details wouldn’t bother her, right?
I sipped my wine and watched Devyn’s face. “Tarryn asked if I wanted to take her back to my place.”
Her eyes narrowed. “That’s nice.”
“We’ve had sex before. So I don’t think she wanted to sit on the couch and watch TV.”
Devyn’s face flushed red.
I couldn’t help myself. I wanted to see her get pissed—admit she was damn jealous.
“Yeah, that Tarryn’s a real wild woman in bed. Last time she visited, we broke a lamp. Knocked it right off the end table from the bed bouncing around so much.”
I watched the muscle flex in her cheek, the same cheek that was turning a lovely shade of crimson. Yet she still wouldn’t look at me.
“Devyn?”
Her lips pursed as she stared straight ahead.
“Devyn?” I said louder.
“What?”
“Look at me.”
Her head whipped to face me, and she stared with daggers in her eyes.
I smiled. “It wouldn’t bother you if I…fu¢ked Tarryn?”
That did it.
She broke.
But she didn’t yell at me like I expected.
Not at all.
Instead, she smashed her lips against mine.
It caught me so off guard that I took a few seconds to catch up. By the time I did, Devyn was hoisting herself over, climbing me like a freaking tree.
Fu¢k yeah.
This.
This was the chemistry we’d had from the very start.
I grabbed her a$s with one hand, lifting her higher, and guided her legs around my waist, so lost in the moment that nothing existed in the world except this kiss.
Which was probably why I didn’t hear the door open…

Cover Reveal: What Happens at the Lake by Vi Keeland

 




Title: What Happens at the Lake
Author: Vi Keeland
Genre: Standalone Contemporary Romance
Trope: Grumpy-Sunshine
Cover Design: Sommer Stein, Perfect Pear Creative
Photographer: Maurizio Montani
Model: Simone Curto
Release Date: January 15, 2024


BLURB

When life took an unexpected turn, I decided to get out of New York for a while. What better place to go than the idyllic small town my father spoke about so fondly when I was growing up? Laurel Lake held the title America’s Friendliest Town for seventeen years running, and friendly was just what I needed right now.

Unfortunately, friendly wasn’t the welcome I got when I arrived.

Instead, I got Fox Cassidy. My tall, dark, and burly neighbor, who grunted at me instead of saying hello.

Okay, so I might’ve had his mailbox in my hands the first time we met. And it might’ve been a little crushed after removing it from under my tire. And I might’ve needed his help breaking into the place I was staying in after the key broke off in the lock. But still…he didn’t have to be so grumpy.

As time went on though, I started to notice things about Fox other than his glares. Like how he watched me when he thought I wasn’t looking, or how fire ignited in his eyes whenever we bickered. Though I was in Laurel Lake to escape my problems, not create new ones. And getting involved with a man like Fox screamed trouble, even if he was gorgeous and unlike any man I’d ever met.

But alas, problem seemed to be my middle name this year. So why not have some fun while I was here for the summer? It seemed like a good plan. At least until it was time to go home…

They say what happens at the lake, stays at the lake. But it’s not so easy to walk away when what stays behind…is your heart.

Kid Cudi Surprises Star Trek Fans 

on New York Comic Con Stage

 

During the Star Trek Universe Panel at New York Comic Con, Scott Mescudi, better known by his stage name Kid Cudi, wowed “Star Trek” fans in a surprise appearance to a packed room discussing his exclusive collaboration as part of  “Star Trek’s” all-new “Boldly Be” campaign.

 

The panel was moderated by Josh Horowitz, best known for his work as a correspondent for MTV News and as a host of the podcast, Happy Sad Confused. Horowitz kicked off the panel by welcoming the crowd and introducing Executive Producer and the person at the helm for the Star Trek franchise, Alex Kurtzman, who debuted never-before-seen behind-the-scenes footage of Kid Cudi’s collaboration with the “Star Trek” universe.

Kurtzman then shocked the New York Comic Con audience by introducing Kid Cudi himself for a brief moderated conversation, where he shared discovering his love of “Star Trek” through his father, as well as details behind the exclusive partnership – which includes a capsule streetwear collection, an immersive Fortnite gaming experience, and a new single, “Heaven's Galaxy," out now.

image004.jpg  image005.jpg


The panel also treated fans to a special advance screening of an all-new episode from the current season of the hit Paramount+ original animated comedy series, Star Trek: Lower Decks, followed by a conversation with Alex Kurtzman and fellow Executive Producer, Mike McMahan. Season four of STAR TREK: LOWER DECKS is produced by CBS’ Eye Animation Productions, CBS Studios’ animation arm; Secret Hideout; and Roddenberry Entertainment. Secret Hideout’s Alex Kurtzman, Roddenberry Entertainment’s Rod Roddenberry and Trevor Roth and Katie Krentz (219 Productions) serve as executive producers alongside creator and showrunner Mike McMahan. Aaron Baiers (Secret Hideout), who brought McMahan to the project, also serves as an executive producer. Titmouse (Big Mouth), the Emmy Award-winning independent animation production company, serves as the animation studio for the series.

After the panel, Kid Cudi then stopped by the official Star Trek x Kid Cudi booth, surprising “Star Trek” fans on the Javits show floor.
