Epic Movie Quote: The Nutty Professor

I must admit... this week's movie quote is quite ridiculous. I don't find much about The Nutty Professor to be memorable in general. It was a funny movie but it was far from a classic. Especially since it was a remake! However, I find myself using this quote in everyday life quite often. Why? I do not know. But here we go :)

3 Predictions For The Future Of Scheduling Posts

This was originally posted on Likeable Media's blog.

Facebook's newest additions to pages have community managers and social media professionals jumping up and down for joy! Finally, we now have the option to place controls around admins.

Epic Movie Quotes: Big Daddy

Before Adam Sandler made bad movies and won Razzie awards, he was a comedic genius. It was just hit after hit of good movies. The Wedding Singer, Happy Gilmore, and of course Big Daddy. Nobody will forget this tearful scene that still has an air of comedy in it. Out of context, this is funny. In context, you would be crying your eyes out. Check it out.

TRAILER: The Great Gatsby Starring Leonardo DiCaprio

Woohoo! It is finally here! The trailer for Leonardo DiCaprio's The Great Gatsby. I'm not going to lie and say that this was my favorite book of all time. In fact, I didn't really like it at all. I read the book via Sparknotes in high school and then tried to read it again more recently. Still didn't really like it! While I may have thought the book was boring, this movie is not. Or at least it doesn't seem that way from the trailer. Check it out yourself!

What The Heck Shonda Rhimes?!

If you were tuning in to the season finale of Grey's Anatomy, maybe you can help me out. What the fudge just happened?!? Here is what I gathered. We used to watch a doctor show that could be classified as a dramedy. Then we learned that Seattle Grace was THE unluckiest hospital in the whole world (cue the bombs inside people's bodies, shooters in the hospital, and doctor's being run down by buses). Now we find that Grey's isn't Grey's at all, but has now turned into Lost! Don't read beyond if you havent' seen it! Spoiler Alerts!

Epic Movie Quotes: Mean Girls

The reason I have only done Mean Girls now is because there are way too many quotes to choose from. The memes that have spawned from this masterpiece will go down in history. While there are many funny parts of this movie (we should really thank Tina Fey), the one-liners are owned by Amanda Seyfried's character. Here's one of my favorites:

Make Up or Make Down: Two Takes on Cosmetics

This post was written by Mallorie Rosenbluth. Originally posted on Punk Meets Pink.
Since it’s an election year and all, I decided to add some democracy and a little friendly debate here on Punk Meets Pink. I’ve had many a battle with my co-blogger regarding things like fashion (no, Cara, you don’t need to own everything that’s leopard print; Mal, those are not shoes, they’re weapons; etc.), the borough battle (Queens? Ack!), drinking (Cara: I hate the feeling I have after I’m drunk, so I don’t get drunk. Mal: *mouth hangs open in shock*) to the topic we’ll be discussing today: makeup.

Epic Movie Quotes: Wedding Crashers

Can you believe we have done this series without talking about Wedding Crashers?! Well, it is about time we do the inevitable and talk about the meatloaf. Although this entire movie was pretty much made of epic movie quotes, we chose the epic of the epic... the Will Ferrel cameo.

This was originally posted on Likeable Media's blog.

It's a dog eat dog world out there, especially in a fast paced industry like social media. Every startup in Silicon Valley is trying to jump on the social bandwagon.

What went wrong that led to these platforms shutting down or fading out? Let's take a look at the 3 most recent casualties.

Epic Movie Quote: Young Frankenstein

Gene Wilder is a comedic genius. Over and over again his movies crack me up. Gene Wilder + Mel Brooks is a great duo. One of my favorites was Young Frankenstein. Although the "roll in ze hay" quote was almost a winner, we went with this little gem instead:

Nostalgia: I Want To Be On Supermarket Sweep!

Some shows from the 90's live on as classics that will never be forgotten. This is not one of them. This is one of those shows in which you're not sure if anyone besides you and mom watched it. Often, when I mention Supermarket Sweep people have no idea what I'm talking about. (They do that with Space Cases too... what a good show!) It just so happens that I LOVED Supermarket Sweep and I miss it dearly. For those of you who missed out, here's a taste of this ridiculous show. For those of you who know what I'm talking about... enjoy!

5 Reasons Why I Wouldn't Be Friends With Harriet the Spy

I know it's been a while since Harriet the Spy was out in theatres. Michelle Trachtenberg was still a cute little girl who hadn't made out with her brother and Rosie O'Donnell wasn't the outspoken, controversial, Donald Trump-hating person she is today. As I think back to what I thought was a really great movie, I begin to realize that Harriet was a bitch (pardon my french).

Epic Movie Quotes: Airplane

Airplane is a classic. Although Leslie Nielsen is no longer with us, his movies are still here making us laugh. There are a lot of quotaeble scenes in this film that can be classified as "epic" but this one is probably the best of the bunch! Do you agree?

A Hunger Games Parody You Won't Want To Miss

If you were a child of the 90's you know all about the magic of Beanie Babies. Why they were popular, I don't know. I do know that I still have the Princess Diana Beanie Baby sitting in my mother's china cabinet because one day it will be worth something, right?!? Well, some people don't feel that way and have decided to put their Beanie Babies to good use and I must say... I approve!

Book Review: A Stolen Life by Jaycee Dugard

After 18 years of captivity Jaycee Dugard escaped her kidnappers, reunited with her family, and lived life raising her two children. If that wasn't brave enough, she then wrote a memoir retelling her story. I was a little nervous to read this book because the horror story was true but I figured if she went through it, I could at least read about it. A Stolen Life was amazing. It is unreal the experiences that Jaycee went through and how she has grown up to be such a well functioning human being in society.

Epic Movie Quotes: Forgetting Sarah Marshall

This is one of my favorite movies. I've seen it more times than I can remember and I think I have even purchased this DVD multiple times (things just go missing when you're in college and have sticky fingered roommates with good taste in movies). As much as this was a Jason Segel film, Paul Rudd really stole the show. Watch the most quoteable line from Forgetting Sarah Marshall here.
