Film review: Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
Ads of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory should come with a warning "See at your own risk" to children and all those who have had the opportunity to watch the first film version Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory on video during these past three decades. This is because this new movie will destroy whatever ideas they have developed and nurtured over the years about the story.

[Title] => Not exactly for chocoholics
[Summary] => 
I was raised on chocolates (the local brands like Goya and Serge’s), but not necessarily on American children’s stories.
When I saw Charlie and the Chocolate Factory therefore, I was more on the lookout for those yummy-to-look-at confectionaries rather than finding out if director Tim Burton had remained faithful to the Roald Dahl book.

[Title] => August 26, 2004
[Summary] => With Mercury still retrograde, and both the sun and moon in signs that like to be super subtle with emotional sharing, some actions taken will be misconstrued. The lunar influence is Capricorn, so the confusion could center around who’s being shown respect, how and why. To avoid trouble, pay attention to protocol, and be as clear as possible.

[Title] => The movies of my life
[Summary] => 
Mulling over the topic of My Favorite Movie proved to be most difficult. How could I possibly choose just one movie when there have been several that have had great impact on my life over the years? It would be unfair to pick just one movie when my life has been made more meaningful by three movies that have so wonderfully influenced me.
