<p>I have a sad, sad story for you. As you&#8217;ve probably heard, NYC has a real problem with bedbugs. They&#8217;ve been spotted in clothing stores, libraries, and movie theaters. I live in NYC, and my crippling fear of bedbugs prevents me from going to see the movies. Which means I haven&#8217;t gone to a movie in a long time.</p>
<p>But this summer I&#8217;m heading home to visit my family in a town where no one has ever gotten bedbugs. One of the things I&#8217;m most excited for is being able to see a movie without worrying about nasty little critters the entire time. So in honor of my summer of freedom, here are the trailers from a few movies that I can&#8217;t wait to see.</p>

<p>Did you watch the Golden Globes last night? I did, and it really made me wish that I was a celebrity. A bunch of really beautiful people got together in gorgeous evening wear, drank champagne and gave out shiny little statues. Sounds great, right? Luckily the celebs had their phones out and were tweeting the night away!</p>

<p>I’m originally from <a href="http://www.forbes.com/sites/christophersteiner/2011/12/13/the-top-5-ski-resorts-in-the-united-states/" target="_blank">Jackson Hole, WY</a> – one of the coldest, snowiest places in the country. But even though blizzards there are as commonplace as rats in a subway station, I never had a single snow day growing up. Why, you ask? Because when it snows all the time, it’s nothing special, and school just goes on. But I always wanted a snow day so, <em>so</em> badly.</p>
<p>In honor of my childhood dream, here’s a list of movies for the perfect snow day marathon. I recommend combining this list of comedies, thrillers, and childhood flashbacks with some hot chocolate and a cute cuddle partner!</p>

<p>Is it safe to say most of us saw <em>500 Days of Summer</em>? That self-indulgent, why-am-I-even-watching-this?, aww-he&#8217;s-so-whipped, just-love-him-already!, omg-she&#8217;s-such-a-bitch masterpiece? Yeah, well, then you&#8217;re well aware that Zooey &#8220;I&#8217;m just wearing this tiaria&#8221; Deschanel and JGL are pretty much the reigning queen and king of hipsterdom.</p>
<p>Think about it. If Brad and Ange &#8212; with their multicultural brood, gorgeous looks and endless swagger &#8212; are the regular person&#8217;s be all and end all of fabulosity, then Zooey and Joseph (Zoeseph?) are the emo kid&#8217;s equivalent.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt&#8217;s brother, <a href="http://www.popeater.com/2010/10/06/burning-dan-gordon-levitt-dead/">&#8220;Burning Dan&#8221; Gordon-Levitt, passed away this week</a> at the age of 36.  He taught what is known as flow arts, which is a combination of dance, yoga, meditation, and preforming arts.  Dan even started a school in Los Angeles for flow arts.  The cause of death is still not known.  This is so sad and our thoughts are with his friends and family.</p>
<p><span id="more-74868"></span>2. <a href="http://www.celebuzz.com/juliette-lewis-hurt-hit-run-s259791/">Juliette Lewis&#8217; car was totalled in a hit-and-run accident this week!</a> She was hospitalized, and thankfully, she&#8217;s okay and was released.  Police found a suspect car and impounded it.  No more information has been released.  We&#8217;re glad Juliette is alright!</p>
<p>3. <a href="http://www.popeater.com/2010/10/06/ashton-kutcher-demi-moore-open-marriage-threesomes/">The supposed other woman in the Ashton Kutcher scandal claims him and Demi have an open marriage! </a>She said that Demi was mad because she wasn&#8217;t involved.  According to Brittney Jones, Ashton can sleep with other women as long as it&#8217;s a threesome with Demi.  Um, what?  Sounds like crazy talk to me.</p>
<p>4. Everyone knows the pop tart, Justin Bieber.  But <a href="http://www.celebuzz.com/florida-man-named-justin-bieber-s259761/">do you know the man, Justin Bieber?</a> There is a 35-year-old Florida man whose real name is Justin Bieber, he&#8217;s been bombarded with phone calls and fan mail.  He even got kicked off Facebook for using a fake name.  Poor guy!</p>
<p>5. The Glee cast topped the Beatles record for most charted songs for a group!  The Beatles held the record at 71 songs, but those Gleeks have bumped them into second place with 75 songs and counting! The cast has sold nearly three million albums, and their fabulousness continues every week.  Keep it up Gleeks!</p>
<p>9&#8243; Old TV with VCR</p>
<p>1. Wilmer Valderrama, aka Fez, will star in a comedy for ABC that includes a &#8220;musical component&#8221;.  Hmm, interesting!</p>
<p>2. Chelsea Handler and 50 Cent?  Maybe, maybe not.  <a href="http://www.popeater.com/2010/10/07/chelsea-handler-50-cent/">The funny lady denied claims</a> that she&#8217;s dating Fiddy, but sources saw them canoodling this week.  We shall see!</p>
<p>3. Eva Longoria is set to host the MTV Europe Music Awards in Madrid on November 7th!  Awesome!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignright size-large wp-image-72078" title="soulmates copy" src="http://collegecandy.files.wordpress.com/2010/09/soulmates-copy.jpg?w=276&h=276" alt="" width="276" height="276" />[<em>It's pretty obvious that the average CollegeCandy reader has some very strong opinions. Opinions that she likes to share with everyone on the site.</em> <em>We love a strong woman (unless she happens to be charging at us with her fists raised), so we thought we'd give her a real forum to discuss her thoughts, feelings, and perspectives. Every Friday I'll be featuring a hot topic (<strong>like <a href="http://collegecandy.com/2010/09/03/duke-it-out-fandom/" target="_blank">fandom</a>!</strong>) and leaving it up to you, the readers, to duke it out. So, read it and <strong>get your debate on in the comments section below</strong>!]</em></p>
<p>We&#8217;ve all killed a few hours (*cough*Calculus*cough*) <a href="http://collegecandy.com/2009/05/08/g-w-w-e-ryan-wrap-me-up-reynolds/">imagining that amazing guy</a> that would somehow walk into our lives &#8211; you know, the one with the suave of George Clooney, the charm of <a href="http://collegecandy.com/2009/07/17/g-w-w-e-joseph-indie-it-boy-gordon-levitt/">Joseph Gordon-Levitt</a> and the abs of Ryan Kwanten (hello, <a href="http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ktu9ftwZ9K1qzj1yko1_400.jpg">Jason Stackhouse</a>!) &#8211; and magically turn all those microwave-ramen-days into a romantic comedy dream. Turns out though, most of us actually believe he exists.</p>
<p>OK, maybe not quite as awesome as we dreamed, but still, according to a new, poll <a href="http://www.lemondrop.com/2010/09/08/can-you-find-your-soulmate/" target="_blank">two-thirds of us believe</a> that our soul mate is out there and that we&#8217;ll find him some day.</p>
<p>On the one hand, I totally get that. Assuming that you didn&#8217;t spend your formative years as part of a remote tribe in the depths of the Amazon (and probably even if you did), you were probably <a href="http://collegecandy.com/2009/10/29/sexy-time-movie-myths-about-sex/">raised on movies</a>, TV shows and books filled with epic love stories. And if all of those quirky girls can find THE guy who will love them and make life a fairy tale, why shouldn&#8217;t someone nice and normal (mumbles) like me be able to do it too. Sure, we realize it&#8217;s not going to play out exactly like the movies, but it&#8217;s not really the big kiss-in-the-rain-to-the-tune-of-a-Top-4o-love-song scenes that matter, <a href="http://collegecandy.com/2008/05/27/and-im-going-on-a-love-free-diet/">it&#8217;s the love</a>. Moreover, those stories always make it seem like <a href="http://collegecandy.com/2010/02/23/tuffy-luv-sez-soulmate-or-just-some-guy/" target="_blank">the girl who &#8220;settles&#8221;</a> &#8211; who picks a nice, smart, handsome guy who loves her but isn&#8217;t &#8220;the one&#8221; &#8211; is making a huge mistake and ruining her happiness forever. No, we&#8217;re not all four years-old, we know that all of those tales aren&#8217;t real life, but they do on a subconscious level, form our ideas about what love should be.<span id="more-72016"></span></p>
<p>But then there&#8217;s that pesky little reality problem we all have to live with. See, it turns out that people who believe in the soulmate thing and apply that to their relationships are 150% more likely to get divorced. Ouch! The problem is, in a world with roughly 6.5 billion people, even if we all really do have a soul mate, the odds of finding that person would be crazy small (I&#8217;d do the math, but like I said before, I had other abs on my mind during those classes). It also inherently means that most people who get married are probably married to someone who&#8217;s not &#8220;the one&#8221; &#8211; and by that virtue, are taking up someone else&#8217;s &#8220;one&#8221; &#8211; and that those marriages are somehow less meaningful. The soul mate<em> seems</em> like a romantic idea, but when you put it into perspective, it&#8217;s actually just heart-crushingly depressing.</p>
<p>What say ye, ladies? (Why did that go all medieval? I have no idea) <em><strong>Do you believe that someday your prince will come? Or is that rom-com stuff all a little blown out of proportion?</strong></em> Duke it out!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-56837 aligncenter" title="gossip-posthead" src="http://collegecandy.files.wordpress.com/2010/03/gossip-posthead.jpg" alt="" width="554" height="195" /></p>
<p>Ahh, finally some buzz from the Hollywood hills! The past few weeks have been a bit dull, but now we&#8217;re back in action.  Elin and Tiger are officially dunzo, Lindsay Lohan is a free woman, and Heidi Montag has sex tapes! So much drama to indulge in. I just hope it doesn&#8217;t make me fat.</p>
<p>So here&#8217;s the scoop.</p>
<p><strong>Ice Cream Sundae</strong></p>
<p>1. <a href="http://collegecandy.com/2010/04/30/lilo-going-to-jail/">Our favorite felon, </a><strong><a href="http://collegecandy.com/2010/04/30/lilo-going-to-jail/">Lindsay Lohan</a>, is out of rehab after only 22 days</strong>! I don&#8217;t know how she managed to skip out on her full three-month sentences in jail and rehab, but girlfriend did it.  She&#8217;s already raking in some major cashflow post-lockup with companies sending her clothes and offering her deals, like a radio hosting gig in New York with Mama Lohan.  Although Lindsay is out of trouble for now, she still has a court date set for her hijacking adventure on January 31, so don&#8217;t get too used to that freedom yet, girl!</p>
<p>2. <strong>Elin Nordegren is officially rid of Tiger Woods</strong>, as a husband that is.  They finalized the divorce this week and Elin walked away with a big chunk of cash.  Elin made her first and last interview with People Magazine and opened up about the scandal she&#8217;s been living through.  Tiger released a statement after her interview ran and spoke about how sad the situation is.  We agree, it&#8217;s sad.  For Elin and the kids!  Best of luck and props for being so strong!</p>
<p>3.<a href="http://collegecandy.com/2010/08/25/70572/"> </a><strong><a href="http://collegecandy.com/2010/08/25/70572/">Heidi Montag</a> has a sex tape</strong>, and Spencer Pratt is trying to sell it!  While everyone&#8217;s still debating if their divorce is real, the sex tape certainly is.  It&#8217;s of Heidi and Hef&#8217;s former girlfriend, Karissa Shannon (yeah one of the twins).  Karissa is a good friend of Heidi&#8217;s and claims Spencer stole her camera, and she says there are other things on there she doesn&#8217;t want getting out! Yikes.  Also, Heidi is getting her implants removed and she&#8217;s terrified that her nose is going to fall off!  So sad. I think? Heidi, are you frowning or smiling?</p>
<p><span id="more-70806"></span></p>
<p>4. <strong><a href="http://collegecandy.com/2010/08/24/omfg-did-we-almost-lose-paris-hilton-last-night/">Paris Hilton almost got robbed</a> while she was in bed!</strong> The man, Nathan Lee Parada, broke in to Paris&#8217; house and had two knives in his hands.  Scary!  He&#8217;s being held on charges of felony burglary and has a $50,000 bail.  Sources say that Paris&#8217; boyfriend, Cy Waits, pulled a gun on Nathan and held him until the police arrived.</p>
<p>5. <strong>Ryan Seacrest is trying to line up a radio show for Larry King</strong>.  Larry&#8217;s show on CNN will be turned over to Piers Morgan.  Ryan <span style="text-decoration:line-through;">knows how much money he could make off of a Larry King show </span>doesn&#8217;t want Larry out of the game just yet, so he&#8217;s using his resources to get Larry a new gig.  Long live the King!</p>
<p><strong>Freezer Burned Neopolitan<br />
</strong></p>
<p>1. Our favorite pussy <strong>Nicole Scherzinger will be appearing on <em>How I Met Your Mother</em></strong> as Jessica Glitter, the rival of former pop star Robin Sparkles.  If you don&#8217;t watch the show, you&#8217;re <span style="text-decoration:line-through;">dumb</span> missing out.</p>
<p>2. <strong>Betty White won an Emmy</strong> for her hosting gig on SNL and her new show <em>Hot In Cleveland </em>is the number one sitcom this year!  Congrats!</p>
<p>3.<strong> Lady Gaga is getting a wax figure </strong>at Madame Tussauds!  Hopefully it will <a href="http://collegecandy.com/2010/06/14/im-over-lady-gagas-wtf-factor/">look just as fab as Lady Gaga herself</a>.</p>
<p>4. <strong>The Kardashian-Jenner clan are receiving the Key to Beverly Hills</strong> at the Taste of Beverly Hills food and wine Festival on September 2nd! Turns out, it&#8217;s not so hard to nab that thing after all.</p>
<p>5. Enjoy hottie <a href="http://justjared.buzznet.com/photo-gallery/2475665/joseph-gordon-levitt-rushes-through-04/">Joseph Gordon-Levitt </a>on a bike for a scene in his new movie, <em>Premium Rush</em>. Yummy!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignright size-large wp-image-67647" title="inception-movie-poster" src="http://collegecandy.files.wordpress.com/2010/07/inception-movie-poster.jpg?w=405&h=600" alt="" width="405" height="600" />Writing about <em>Inception</em> isn’t comparable to writing reviews about <a href="http://collegecandy.com/2010/06/26/now-showing-toy-story-3/"><em>Toy Story 3</em></a> and <a href="http://collegecandy.com/2010/07/01/now-showing-eclipse/"><em>Eclipse</em></a>. In all honesty, I didn’t know anything about the movie going into it, except that Leonardo DiCaprio starred (and that was enough for me), but I was pleasantly surprised by the film. It was long and complicated, but mostly rewarding, although I did have some problems with the acting, which I will get to.</p>
<p><em>Inception</em> is based on the concept that, through technology, people are able to invade the dreams of others. It is not thoroughly explained, but it is assumed that this technology isn’t accessible to the public; instead, the military and powerful (or possibly just rich) people are able to make use of it. Leonardo DiCaprio and <a href="http://collegecandy.com/2009/07/17/g-w-w-e-joseph-indie-it-boy-gordon-levitt/">Joseph Gordon-Levitt</a> are partners who specialize in gathering people’s secrets from their dreams. It turns out that when someone’s dreaming, they put their secrets into safes that are present in their dream world.</p>
<p>Still following?</p>
<p>Basically if you have a dream one night, and DiCaprio is breaking into a safe in your house, that’s bad news, because he’s finding out your deepest, darkest secret. Inception is the concept of planting an idea in someone’s mind, which is a lot harder than just invading their dream, because the idea has to be put so deep in someone’s subconscious that they have to believe they came up with it on their own. The owner of a powerful corporation wants the heir to his rival corporation, played by Cillian Murphy, to be subconsciously convinced, through his dreams, to disassemble his father’s empire. Although the task is seemingly impossible, DiCaprio is sold when he is offered the ability to return to America, which he hasn’t been able to do because of allegations against him in the States. DiCaprio intends to bring along his crew of six people into Murphy’s dream so that he can go back to the U.S. and finally see his children again.<span id="more-67472"></span></p>
<p>Two suggestions if you’re planning on seeing this film: be willing to invest two and half hours in it AND be willing to spend those hours wrapping your mind around everything. Think of it as that lecture where the professor talks really fast and refuses to use PowerPoint. You have to stay focused. But, one of the most exciting things about the film is that, like that professor, writer-director Christopher Nolan expects a lot of his audience. He expects you to come along with him on this journey without having to explain things twice. Considering the plethora of movies today that feel the need to dumb everything down, it’s nice that a director finally gives his audience some credit. Those who have seen the recent <em>Batman</em> films, <em>Memento</em>, and <em>Insomnia</em> will know that is Nolan’s specialty.</p>
<p>But let&#8217;s be honest: Is anyone else tired of watching <a href="http://collegecandy.com/2008/10/10/gwee-leonardo-loverboy-dicaprio/">Leonardo DiCaprio</a> battle memories of women from his past? <a href="http://collegecandy.com/2010/02/19/shutter-island-why-leo-why/">We all saw <em>Shutter Island</em></a>, Leo, we know that you’re good at whining about beautiful women. To be honest, I’m starting to find him a little boring. I know my sister’s going to kill me because she owned The Unofficial Biography of Dreamy Leonardo DiCaprio Circa-Titanic, but hear me out. He’s really good at running around and looking angry/haunted/distraught, but I miss the human qualities of his characters in <em>Catch Me If You Can</em>, <em>Titanic</em>, and even the boyish attitude he brought to <em>Romeo + Juliet</em>. Sometimes they were happy, sometimes they were sad, and sometimes they were angry. It seems as though the recent DiCaprio movies pretty much show us a lot of angst. We know you can shoot a gun, but give us more realistic characters!</p>
<p>Joseph Gordon-Levitt, on the other hand, has come such a long way from <em>10 Things I Hate About You </em>and being the kid in <em>3rd Rock From the Sun</em>. In <em>Inception</em>, his character is an extremely sexy badass, and Gordon-Levitt plays him perfectly. (Side note: Joseph, you can crash my dreams anytime.) Cillian Murphy also is amazing; why isn’t this guy in more movies? Tom Hardy plays a forger, which is the person who can morph into someone else within the dream, and he does so well, often providing some much needed comic relief during his squabbles with Gordon-Levitt. Onto <a href="http://collegecandy.com/2009/03/26/girl-crush-ellen-page/">Ellen Page</a>, who plays the architect that creates the surroundings for the dreams that they invade. I wanted to like her, I really did. But all I could see when I watched her was Juno. She sticks to the same tone and attitude so that even if she’s not on her cheeseburger phone, when she talked, all I could think was, “You’ve already invaded someone’s dream, so what other kind of shenanigans could you get into?&#8221;</p>
<p>Definitely see the movie if this is the kind of concept that interests you. To me, I loved thinking over the questions that the film raised about reality, dreams, and the subconscious. Whatever you do, though, don’t bring that friend who talks through movies – you will definitely miss something and then be confused for the next two hours.</p>

(Guys We Wanna Eff)!</p>
<p><a href="http://nymag.com/guides/summer/2009/57431/" target="_blank">Joseph Gordon-Levitt</a> is the sizzling it-boy of the moment, and apparently has a penchant for projects beginning with numerals instead of letters. He has been on my radar since his days as Tommy Solomon on <a href="http://www.tvland.com/prime/shows/thirdrockfromthesun/" target="_blank">3rd Rock from the Sun</a>. Man, remember that show? Besides the fact it was gut-bustingly funny, it rocked because JGL played the unconventionally-hot teen boy that was irresistible to my young lust.</p>
<p>Then, to confirm his pop-star status, he starred in one of the most iconic coming-of-age flicks of the 90s, <a href="http://www.fanpop.com/spots/10-things-i-hate-about-you" target="_blank">10 Things I Hate About You</a>.</p>
<p>But a lot has happened since then.  Shortly after 10 Things, JGL took an acting hiatus to study French at Columbia, and developed an appreciation for <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2007/03/25/movies/25lidz.html?_r=1&amp;ref=movies&amp;oref=slogin" target="_blank">the smaller things in life</a>. He left college just shy of graduation to begin acting again, this time in plays and on the indie movie circuit. Now, he&#8217;s a fully matured adult with his first headlining role in the indie &#8220;it&#8221; movie <a href="http://www.foxsearchlight.com/500daysofsummer/http://www.foxsearchlight.com/500daysofsummer/" target="_self">(500) Days of Summer</a>, opening today.</p>
<p>And while<a href="http://josephgordonlevitt.org/" target="_blank"> JGL</a> has always been a cutie, these days there&#8217;s no denying he&#8217;s 100% smokin&#8217; hot.  Trailers and <a href="http://www.aintitcool.com/node/41622" target="_blank">clever ads</a> for (500) Days of Summer reveal his intelligent, understated, and refined attractiveness that&#8217;s effing driving me crazy. Add a French accent to the mix and he can 3rd rock my world any day&#8211;summer, winter, whenever!</p>
