Gray Gables Gab

Friday, December 5th 2014

Hi all!

Well, I seem to be full of Celebrity gossip these days...maybe I always have been but lately it seems that I am pulling my poor Hubby into this gossip...Thanks Hubby for listening!  He suggested that I change up my format and add a GAB post to my blog once a week...so I can UNLOAD....

It's all good. I appreciate Hubby for putting up with my fantasy world!  Now I know I can share here and kind of disappointed that I did not think of it!

Anywhoo...here goes..

Topic #1- Let's talk Bill Cosby..

Oh my gawd....seriously what is going on with all these woman.  I don't really know what to think because I have not been in their shoes, but I find it odd that after ALL those years they choose now to come out and talk about rape and roofies.  I don't want to discredit them, but it seems like this should have come to the forefront before the man was in his late seventies...right?  There is so much talk about how people are now not fans of Bill Cosby and how an abused woman holds her grief in...I get it to a degree.  I also heard the story of the woman who tried to take legal action and was paid off, so I am not discrediting their stories...but what do they have to gain at this point and time?  Bill Cosby has done JELLO commercials for years...he has stayed in the spotlight for all this time...WHY NOW?




As for the fans turning their back on Bill...remember people, we can't confuse BILL COSBY with Healthcliff Huxtable- they are not one in the same.  I am sure that Bill is paying for his sins...if this is true. (see what I did there...I am not siding with anyone!)

Please share your thoughts and perspective here, because I would LOVE to hear it!!

Topic #2- Upcoming Movies- I am all in!

1. Dad's Army- This is a WWII comedy where Catherine Zeta Jones plays a reporter.  A group of hapless volunteers are in search of a spy as glamorous journalist, Rose Winters, played by Zeta Jones, is sent to Walmington-on-Sea to write about the exploits of the Home Guard.






2. Bone Tomahawk- a Western Horror movie.  The movie starts Kurt Russell as a sheriff who, with Patrick Wilson, Matthew Fox, and Richard Jenkins- set out to rescue a group of captives from a band of cannibalistic troglodytes.






3. The Nice Guys- The story, set in the 1970s Los Angeles, follows a private eye (Ryan Gosling) and a hired leg breaker (Russell Crowe) who must work together to solve the case of a missing girl and the seemingly unrelated death of a porn star.  Kim Basinger appears in the film also, as a chief justice with dubious interests.






4. The Blunderer- a psychological thriller based on the 1954 Patricia Highsmith novel starting Jessica Biel who plays a jealous wife who meets an unfortunate fate.  **This movie was shot in Cincinnati, Ohio!  Go OH- IO!





5. Wild- based on Cheryl Strayed's bestselling memoir stars Reece Witherspoon who hikes more than 1,100 miles alone on the Pacific Crest Trail, trying to defeat the elements while being chased by memories of bad life decisions and a stale relationship with her mother.  (c'mon...anything with Reece Witherspoon- Yes Please!)




Topic #3- Surprising news

From People.com

Did you know that Cameron Diaz (we love her cause her name is Cameron.) is engaged to Benji Madden.  Love me some Madden boys!   I guess there are rumors that she is sporting an engagement ring.  The two are not confirming...but I would marry him Cameron! 






Topic #4- Speaking of Marriage


I am part of the generation that started watching reality TV and now...I am hooked.  But, in the beginning, it was The Real World and Jersey Shore that tuned me in every week...sadly!  So, I think that I need to give a Congrats to Snookie and Jionni!  They finally...tied the knot on NOvember 29th.  I am happy to watch Snookie & JWow and see how much these two girls have grown and happy to see Nicole so HAPPY.



Topic #5- Real World


Sad news about Ryan Knight from Real World: New Orleans.  He was found dead on November 27th in Wisconsin.  No known cause of death yet, but he was only 28 years old.  Condolences go to his family!





Topic #6- TV world
Oh, it's Christmas time and that means HOLIDAY movies all over the place. (except last night...the line up was WEAK!)

Here are some of the movies on TV and TV shows that have my attention:

The Red Tent- Lifetime December 7th and 8th at 9:00 pm.
The Red Tent is a movie based on Anita Diamant's novel, Tent, and spins out a feminist supplement to several key chapters of the Old Testament.  The heart of the story imagines the life of Jacob and Leah's daughter Dinah, who merits only a brief mention in Genesis.  Here we see her as a  competent midwife who, after a tragic romance and estrangement from her family, winds up in Egypt.

Thanks all!

Happy Friday!
