This week has been a garbage week of garbage things happening and it’s all just piling up and creating a giant garbage mountain and it’s all a bit much and I’d like it to please stop. BUT, since that isn’t how the universe works, and it’s snowing today (again) covering all that garbage in a layer of white nonsense, which is just adding to my irritation… here’s the list of shit I read this week.
For Pride month, I just want everyone to see this amazing new series at Netflix! Writing a review about it (in Swedish unfortunately) and it’s just SO GOOD, I mean; Ellen page and Laura Kinney plus intersectionality, transvisibility and hbqti+-issues! And did I mention it was funny too? Yeah, it’s a keeper! Recommend, recommend.
The first trailer for Viceland’s Gaycation, which has Ellen Page traveling to different cities around the world exploring local LGBT culture, is finally here and it’s a wild ride. The 28-year-old actor made headlines last August when she went head-to-head with Ted Cruz at the Iowa State Fair — a confrontation that appears in the upcoming series.
That tense and emotional moment is only one of many for Page and her co-host/best friend Ian Daniel as they travel from the U.S. to Tokyo, Rio De Janeiro, and Jamaica. In each episode, Page and Daniel (who is also gay) attempt to explore the ways in which different cultures deal with gender, sex, and sexuality by immersing themselves in the local LGBT community.
Filming the series proved to be a very personal and moving experience for Page, who found herself in front of the camera with no script to follow.
Gaycation will premiere on Viceland, Vice’s new TV network, Wednesday, March 2nd at 10PM.
Every woman has their mottos and mantras that get them through tough times and everyday life. It’s not easy being bold and fierce all the time, but somehow we all make it. As Women’s History Month comes to a close, check out some inspirational quotes by queer women who have gone above and beyond to reach their dreams.
Do you ever wonder if you are living in a real world? Maybe someday you’d wake up on some weird planet and realize ‘Oops it was just a dream!’
Inception directed by visionary Christohper Nolan is all about dreams. It was released in 2010, shot in six countries at a reported cost of $160 million. Was it worth it? Yes! Every single second!
Dom Cobb is a professional inceptionist. What’s an inceptionist you ask? It’s a person who invades people’s dreams to steal their secrets. Scary eh? His trusted associate Arthur is his partner in crime. Played by Leonardo DiCaprio and Josheph Gordon-Levitt [double hotness, though I’m partial to Josheph ;) ] this duo assembles a team to do something they’ve never done before. Plant an idea. Cobb and his team are hired to plant an idea in the Fischer’s subconscious, portrayed by Cillian Murphy. To do this job they have to create layers of dream in which they can get lost.
This film revolves around Cobb, his desire to go meet his children and haunting memories of his deceased wife Mal. Cobb struggles with his emotions as Mal lives in his subconscious and what he knows, she knows too.
This amazing movie is a combination of epic science fiction and action that’ll keep you on the edge. The most amazing thing about this film is how it evolves. It has the ultimate plotline, I try not to compare movies but this one beats them all, well not all but most of them. It’s like a blooming flower; every time a petal opens you realize something new.
The whole 148 of this movie captivates you, I was never bored or wondered when this scene would end. It keeps you interested until the very end. I can’t say that it is easy to understand, some may find the concept a little difficult but keep an open mind and you’ll be asking for more.
The visuals in this film are A –wait-for-it─ mazing, AMAZING! Avatar takes us to a alien planet with fancy plants and blue aliens, it’s great. But this film gives us simple places and turns them upside down, literally ;) Architect of Dreams, ever heard a job title like that one? No? It exist peeps, it really does.
Nolan has made me wonder about reality, what is reality and how do you know if you are lost in a dream or not?
