Film Buff
There are countless opportunities for modern Millennial women to kick ass these days. We’ve got the talent, smarts and drive to make the world our oyster, and we believe that we can have anything we set our minds to, But don’t get us wrong. We’re not simply entitled, spoiled brats - we’re willing to fight for [...]

How do you know when it’s official…?! When they make a movie about it! New Line Cinema just hired screenwriters Emily Cook & Kathy Greenberg to write a movie based on the gaggle. Yes – the gaggle as we’ve been dishing about it on WTF?! YOUR gaggle of guys (or girls) in this crazy, ambiguous, technology-laden [...]

III The blackbird whirled in the autumn winds. It was a small part of the pantomime. -Wallace Stevens We’re loving this year’s Hollywood Issue of The New York Times Magazine. The Magazine is walking the walk. They’ve produced 14 short films, most around a minute long, of 14 actors acting out a moment. Watch the [...]

A few months ago, I contemplated how the Princess Club had grown up. We lady babies of the 80′s were raised on the strong-willed, independent-yet-hopelessly-romantic likes of Ariel, Jasmine and Belle, with VHS re-issuings of classic, fated beauties like Snow White, Sleeping Beauty and Cinderella thrown in for good measure. Were we lucky to have [...]

Coming soon (or, in July) to a theater near you! Two romantic comedies in which a guy and a girl who are friends start having casual sex. This is good news, because it means we get to watch really attractive people getting down. Unfortunately, however, both films seem to offer a heavy dose of emotional [...]

Unlike the subject of our last WTF?! Film Buff analysis – Julia Roberts’s pseudo-empowering “Should I have a baby or run off to Bali?” take on premature midlife crises, Eat Pray Love – the latest movie that’s being marketed to us chicks is aimed at Millennials.

It’s a big joke (hahaha) that “None of us is as stupid as all of us.” The supporting concepts and labels abound. GroupThink. Peer Pressure. Mob Rule. Lemmings. Sheep. Teeny Boppers. Fascists. If all your friends were jumping off a cliff, would you do it too? Deservedly or not, people in large groups get a [...]

Girls starting a website…what a cra-azy idea, right?! Wink. Smirk. Nudge. Yeah, yeah, I know – you get the joke. The internet is typically a gender-neutral playing field. Anyone with a few bars of connection can build a website and change the world! Or start a digital revolution! Or gripe about the complexities of modern [...]

You might’ve noticed that, of the two of us, Becky is generally more likely to share revealing stories and outtakes from her love life than I am. Becky asks specific questions: I give general answers. Becky identifies the guys in her gaggle, or lack thereof: I tell her to buck up and provide some guidelines [...]

It’s Friday morning. FACT. You’ve got your coffee, donut and a hankering to take off early to spend your last summer Friday on a group-non-date with your crew on the outdoor, beer-encrusted patio at the local dive bar. CHECK. But what to do ’til then? Can we humbly suggest you while away the work hours checking [...]
