  • LA Comic-Con COVID-19 News December 2, 2021
    If you’re attending LA-Comic-Con this weekend, you’ll want to budget some extra time–even more than you might have for the San Diego Comic-Con Special Edition last weekend. At SDCC Special Edition, you got checked once and were able to bypass the COVID-19 check line by flashing your wristband. Not so with LA Comic-Con according to […]

  • GO: ‘A Christmas Carol’ Brings Joy and Hope to Music Center Fans December 2, 2021
    It’s been a long time since I’ve sat in the audience at the Ahmanson. I remember buying tickets once a long time ago and inviting my mother. I had, by that time, been a theater critic for a number of years, writing for the LA Weekly. The Ahmanson’s adaptation of “A Christmas Carol” might be […]

  • Ghostbusters: Afterlife and Clothes and Movie Magic November 30, 2021
    The character of Phoebe is supposed to be 12-year-old. Her brother Trevor is supposed to be 15. I know more about being a 12-year-old girl in terms of clothes than the average 12-year-old girl and most adults, and I can tell you that during “Ghostbusters:Afterlife” that the new generation of ghostbusters put on the uniforms […]

  • SDCC Special Edition: The Pillow Quest November 30, 2021
    After a morning driving down to La Jolla and running the dogs in a new competitive sport, we boarded them at PetsMart and headed over the SDCC Special Edition. I’m always on the look out for freebies and we passed many empty stalls including one that was being used for storage. I waited and asked […]

  • Be Enchanted with Disney’s ‘Encanto’ ⭐︎⭐︎⭐︎ November 24, 2021
    Disney introduces a new “Disney Princess” who is neither a princess nor looking for a prince. In “Encanto,” the heroine is a quirky girl who isn’t perfect, skinny or beautiful, but still has enough empathy and spunk to save her family. That shouldn’t be a spoiler because this is family-friendly Disney so happy endings are […]

  • ‘Hawkeye’ Has Major Misses in First Two Episodes November 23, 2021
    The Disney+ series “Hawkeye” means to explore the consequences of Clint Barton’s vigilante actions during the Blip and the first two episodes are nowhere near the quality of the same network’s “Mandalorian” or “Loki.” In the first two episodes, there’s plenty of everyday misinformation to give parents reason to worry and the chemistry of the […] […]

  • ‘Ghostbusters: Afterlife’: A Love Letter to Fans and a Fond Farewell ⭐︎⭐︎⭐︎ November 21, 2021
    “Ghostbusters: Afterlife” exists as if the female ghostbusting crew was an imaginary apparition and yet introduces a new generation of accidental friends and family with the help of some old friends. The film is a sequel to the 1984 and 1989 Ghostbuster films and brings diversity to the ghostbusting business. If you look at the […]

  • Ms. Geek Speaks: Fan Snubbing at Ghostbusters Fan Event November 20, 2021
    Friday night, I dragged my husband to the IMAX Fan Event for Ghostbusters and although he had fun, he left with a bitter taste of fan snubbing. We’ve been to mega fan events like D23 Expo and SDCC as well as Long Beach Comic-Con and Los Angeles Comic-Con. We also attended the Psych: The Musical […]

  • An AFI Tennis Double: ‘King Richard’ ⭐︎⭐︎ and ‘Citizen Ashe’ ⭐︎⭐︎⭐︎⭐︎ November 19, 2021
    Tennis fans were treated to an AFI Fest tennis double: the feature film “King Richard and the documentary “Citizen Ashe.” While “King Richard” has the ever-popular and seemingly everywhere lately Will Smith behind it and as the star, “Citizen Ashe” has Emmy Award-winning directors Rex Miller and Sam Pollard and a man of sterling character […]
