K-Pop and K-Dramas: Map of The Soul ON:E Concert

Hey! Hallie here! So we’re going to have to take a break from some of our Fall and Halloween posts to talk about BTS for a while. There are a few reasons for that, but the reason for this specific post is the BTS virtual concerts that occurred over the last two days. While IContinue reading “K-Pop and K-Dramas: Map of The Soul ON:E Concert”

Hi! It’s Annie! Again, I have to go back to books since I feel this time of the year is the best for reading. You can finally snuggle under a blanket without practically dying from the heat!

Halloween: Morticia and Gomez Addams Are One of the Best Relationships in Media

Hey! Hallie here! Every year, when October rolls around, I get the sudden reminder that I’ve been neglecting my favorite fictional couple all year.

Regardless of which adaptation you watch, Morticia and Gomez’s love for eachContinue reading “Halloween: Morticia and Gomez Addams Are One of the Best Relationships in Media”

Books: Fall Recommendations

Hi! It’s Annie! This might sound kind of odd, but colder weather is definitely my favorite time to read. There is nothing better than a warm blanket, a cup of tea, and a good book.

Twins in Media: Thing 1 and Thing 2

Hey! Hallie here! Let’s carry on this classics week with another representation of twins! This one is one my sister and I have been compared to more than any other set of twins in media.

Twins in Media: Tweedledee and Tweedledum

Hi! It’s Annie! This week for twins in media, we’re really going for the classics. These are the twin portrayals that paved the way for many other twins in media, and also popularized harmful stereotypes. It’s really difficult to talk about twins in media without a mention of ‘Alice in Wonderland’ and Tweedledum and Tweedledee.Continue reading “Twins in Media: Tweedledee and Tweedledum”

Video Games: Games to Play During Halloween if You Aren’t a Horror Fan

Hey! Hallie here! As someone who loves replaying my favorite video games, I always like to play favorites that get me in the spooky mood around October.

K-Pop and K-Dramas: The King: Eternal Monarch

Hi! It’s Annie! I apologize profusely from taking away from Halloween posts, but I finished this K-drama a while ago and the more I think about it the more I just need to talk about it.

There’s one movie thatContinue reading “Studio Ghibli: The Best Studio Ghibli Film to Watch During October”

Disney: The Sanderson Sisters

Hi! It’s Annie! It’s really difficult to not bring up the Sanderson sisters once October rolls around. They are staples of Halloween and it’s really hard to imagine a reality where they wouldn’t be some of the most iconic Halloween characters. What’s weird about them is that I wasn’t too familiar with these Salem witchesContinue reading “Disney: The Sanderson Sisters”
