Comic Con 2010 Wrap Up: Day 1

Hello, everyone! I’m back from Comic-Con and have been thrusted back into reality. I have to say, I had a pretty amazing time, especially since this year was a little different: I attended as press, helping my good friend and fellow blogger, Rosy, from Accidental Sexiness (check it out!). This pass allowed us entry into certain pressrooms as well as access to the front of ballrooms to get photos during panels.

It was such a great learning experience. I hope to be able to attend more events like these in the near future so I can share them on Melificent. I was able to meet a lot of great contacts and I have a very good feeling about the future of the blog.

Lovable Friday!

1. Inception
1. Inception

I’ve always been a big fan of Christopher Nolan’s work ever since I saw Memento (one of my top 10 movies of all time), so you can imagine how excited I was when I first saw the trailer for Inception a couple of months ago. I think the hubs and I were rendered speechless after it came on during a random commercial break. Talk about orgasmic visuals! Plus, I really dig the concept of creating, controlling and implanting dreams especially after all those lectures on Jung during my schooling. And Mr. Nolan could not have collected a better or more talented cast to tell his story. I have to be honest, I haven’t been this excited for a movie in a long time (all the silly Twilight-ness doesn’t count). I got my tickets – did you?

Happy Hump Day: Zachary Levi

07

Many of you ladies have made the request that I feature Zachary Levi on my hump day posts, so here you go! Although I have never watched an episode of Chuck in my life, I have noticed that it has a pretty massive cult following. So massive that it’s fan base has managed to bring it back from the dead. That’s right, Chuck was on the NBC chopping block before fans stepped up and created the Save Chuck campaign. Because of the dedication of hardcore fans, Chuck saw a season 3 and has just been renewed for a 4th season. So this is for you, Chuck fans, I hope you enjoy!

Weekend Highlights

Saturday I finally took the plunge and got my new short, hip haircut! I could not be happier – I feel so light and fresh and modern. I went to the Aveda Institute in Ft. Lauderdale and got my hair cut by my amazing friend, Alana. She’s been busting her butt to learn and perfect the art of hair and I am so pleased with what she did. I was a little nervous about the chunky highlights, but she was so confident that they would look great that those worries quickly dissipated. I feel like a new me and can’t wait to start the summer as a blonde! I’ll let you know if what they say is true and I do have more fun, although with the summer I have lined up already, I doubt I would have anything but!

Sunday night we had our first official party at the house for the season 3 premiere of True Blood! I don’t need to reiterate what a big fan I am of this show, so just suffice it to say that I was excited (& a little nervous about having people over for the first time in our new house). It was such a success! We made it a potluck since we are fridge-less until the 22nd and wow, did people make some yummy treats! Plus, we got some fun party favors and props that really made the night a lot of fun.
My personal favorite was my jug of Fang Banger – an alcoholic concoction of True Blood beverage, Sprite and Vodka. Thankfully, I woke up this morning hangover free, but I did have my fair share of these throughout the night (& I was not the only one).
I also thought the season opener was great and really held our attention (was it all the nice butt shots?) – I am both bummed and pleased that they seem to not be following the books at all, but we have yet to see what they have in store for us the rest of the season. I totally need to get used to those typical True Blood weekly cliffhangers again – how killer was last night’s??
For all the photos from last night, click here.

Have a great week everyone!

1. True Blood Season 3
1. True Blood Season 3

It’s finally here! The wait is over, Truebies – HBO’s hit show (& seemingly everyone’s obsession), True Blood, will begin its highly anticipated 3rd season on Sunday night at 9pm. HBO has teased us for months now with these mini posters (pictured above is the last of the series), character minisodes and plenty of shorts to wet our appetite. I’ve read up until book 5 in the Sookie Stackhouse series, which is what the series is based off of, and if they follow book 3’s storyline (but will probably deviate from), we are going to have a lot to look forward to! What am I most excited for? The introduction of Alcide, the hottie werewolf! Rawr.

I’ll be holding a little viewing party at my place complete with a themed potluck, fangbanger cocktails and fangs galore! VILFS welcome 😉
