I don’t know about you, but when Sunday Funday night rolls around, all I want are my fat pants, Thai food and some quality time with the supernatural beings on True Blood. Now before you get all, “Oh Sookie — I love her!” on me, let me tell you I could kind of care less about Sookie Stackhouse and vampire Bill Compton. For me, it’s all about Sookie’s Bff Tara, played by Rutina Wesley.
What makes her so special? Well, have you seen her? She is gorgeous and her body is like a brick house. Her skin looks as though it has been bathed in honey and milk and kissed by pixies in the garden of hotness.
Beyond the superficial, Wesley is able to capture the balance of sassy attitude and childlike naivety of Tara’s character in a way that makes her likeable. To be honest, when the series started out,

Movie Review - 'Dance Flick'

Dance Flick
Starring Shoshana Bush, Damon Wayans, Jr., Essence
Atkins, and Amy Sedaris
Directed by Damien Dante Wayans
Rated PG-13
The good thing about the new Wayans family spoof, Dance Flick, is
you'll know within 60 seconds whether or not it's for you. A dance battle begins the movie, with two teams
of dancers throwing out their best moves in an effort to outduel each other.
Roughly half a minute into
the film, a dancer slides across the floor, leg hiked in the air, and urinates on a competitor. Some fifteen
seconds later, another dancer contorts his body and accidentally shoves his head up his own ass.
You either think that's funny or you don't. If you think it's funny, then your ship has come in. And
you're way too easily enteratined. However, if it's not up your alley, the rest of the 80-something
minutes here won't offer you much of a respite.
