SANDY FROM GREASE
Ever seen Grease? Of course you have, this is America. So here we have Sandra Dee, the Aussie transplant who lands at Rydell High for her senior year. She spent the summer at the beach with Danny Zukko and she misses him dearly. As musicals would have it, Danny goes to Rydell! Ahhh! Of course, he’s not the same Danny that Sandy met at the beach. He wears black leather jackets, hangs out...

SLEEPING BEAUTY, YET AGAIN
Oh look, it’s Sleeping Beauty again…hooray! As I’ve mentioned before, the original fairy tale has the princess growing up in the castle and wandering the towers to find a spindle. Of course, since her father had banned all spinning wheels and spindles, she’s never seen one and is curious. BAM! MAN DOWN! MAN DOWN! One of the good fairies, who already lessened the curse...
ASK ME QUESTIONS
Any old question will do…but I’m gonna start throwing these over to my personal blog, Rogue Bicycles. So look for answers there. Cool, LATER.

PRINCESS LEIA, STAR WARS
Hey look! It’s everybody’s favorite galactic princess and it’s not Sailor Moon, Moon Kingdom be damned. Princess Leia was pretty badass. She’s the daughter of Darth Vader and Queen Amidala, princess of Alderaan and she helped the rebels fight the empire…good for her. Obviously, any princess who manages to battle enemies across the universe would have some killer...

ODILE THE BLACK SWAN, SWAN LAKE
Following up to yesterday’s post on Odette, let’s look at her evil twin, Odile. As mentioned yesterday, Odile is the daughter of Von Rothbart. Upon finding that his hold over Odette might be broken by the faithful love of the prince, Von Rothbart disguises Odile as Odette to ensure that his curse won’t be broken. She appears at the ball and they trick the prince and he declares his love for...
PARDON ME
Flickr is malfunctioning, re-posting the Black Swan in just a moment.
maryashouldbedoingsomethingelse asked: I really liked your first 'White Witch' profile, good job! :)
And also; with 'Swan Lake' you forgot the extremely important ending!! There's the massive, epic battle between the prince and Rothbart. Unfortunately the prince ends up dying, but the point is that he and Odette are reunited in heaven. So good still sorta triumphs even though they both die. It is an...

projectnewyork asked: Hi :)
I just read your post about Black Swan. Is it really that amazing of a movie?
I'm dying to see it but someone told me it wasn't as good as everyone said it would be..

ODETTE THE WHITE SWAN, SWAN LAKE
I saw Black Swan and thought it was pretty tops. The movie is based around a young ballerina who is dancing the lead in Swan Lake. The story behind this ballet is pretty simple. A young prince runs away from his kingdom to escape an arranged marriage. In search of love he comes upon a lake full of swans and is startled by featheredish girl (paging Kanye West), Odette. Turns out, Odette was a...
maryashouldbedoingsomethingelse asked: Thank you! :) your blog is pretty awesome! I think my favourite would have to be Lydia Bennett! I reckon it would be really cool if you did the white witch from 'the chronicles of narnia', because it seems villans tend to have really cool clothes :P

LYDIA BENNET, PRIDE AND PREJUDICE
What’s an Elizabeth Bennet post without one of her sisters? Let’s look at Lydia, the flirtatious frivolous one, the carefree one, the one who like just doesn’t care about anything. Her behavior puts her family’s reputation in jeopardy along with her own well-being. After running away with the villainous Mr. Wickham and he is bribed to marry her, she considers it a fine...

ELIZABETH BENNET, PRIDE AND PREJUDICE...AGAIN
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, Lizzy Bennet of Pride and Prejudice is like the coolest girl in school. She’s nice, she’s pretty but not in annoying way and she’s impossibly fair and grounded. If only more girls out there would take a page from her book, le sigh. Sure, she’s a little bit of a country bumpkin, but it’s not like she’s Sarah...

PIPPI LONGSTOCKING
Pippi Longstocking has a pretty sweet life—super human strength and a house all to herself. She also seemed to have endless adventures, which can’t surprise anybody because she’s a character in a children’s story. I bet she dressed like a crazy person though…which pretty much means she dressed really f’ing awesome. 1. I’m just gonna pick my house up, no...
