I am Nicole and I am an avid reader and an alcohol connoisseur.. which it totally different from an alcoholic.. I swear. I am trying to get into the editing world and in doing so I learned that giving my opinions and networking in as many forms of media as I could is the way to get heard! I wanted to create an open forum to pair alcoholic drinks with books based on the theme, feel and/or content of the book.
I will warn anyone who joins me here that you will get a very eclectic range of books as I will read anything from Rom Coms, sci-fi, and fantasy to Bizzaro, Steampunk and Biographies, whatever pairs with an interesting drink! I will also say that I am very honest and I will not pander to the popular or feel the need to give a good review just because I got an ARC read of a certain book. I believe that everyone deserves the truth no matter how much it hurts.. EVEN ME! I would love everyone’s opinions! AND LET THE DRINKS FLOW!! (Let’s just not have the drinks make the honesty get TOO out of hand!) ;p

Ah, the anxiety bug has bitten. Fear not, a nice bottle of single-malt Scotch will cure what ails you. (Or make you so happy you no longer give a damn!) 🙂 May I suggest a 12-year-old bottle of The Dalmore.

Well, can’t say I recognize it – but again, I don’t watch tv. But I hope it’s worth all the anxiety. is it based off a movie?

It was a movie out in the 80s done by Jim Henson (who did the muppets) it was a very iconic fantasy movie for its time and they’re now doing a mini series sort of thing to continue it. I always worry about them doing stuff loke this after so many years….

I am with you in that part of me wants to see it but the other part of me is terrified of what they will do to the Dark Crystal. And like most prequels, I have to wonder what the point is given we already know they can’t actually fix things given the state of the world in the actual Dark Crystal. Oh well, I guess we’ll see what they do.

I never saw ‘Dark Crystal’, but I remember going to a scifi con in the summer of ’82. There was a huge buzz about this movie, and the extraordinary effort it took to create this world. I recently saw a short about the making of this film and how all the effects are real. There is no animation. This was made way before the advent of CGI.
I watched the above trailer.
CGI don’t think so.

And, I concur. The CGI scares me…. Ever since technology evolved it seems to have ruined the hands on aspects to movies. Just because CGI is an option doesn’t mean muppets shouldn’t be. 😒
