The New Yorker Festival Gave Me All The Feels

October 14, 2014 by rhapcityblog

“Entertainment changes the world.” – Peter Paige This past weekend I attended two events at The New Yorker Festival. I full out fangirl for this weekend every October because it is an example of exactly why I came to New York in the first place. Now in its 15th year, The New Yorker Festival is an opportunity to sit in a room with extraordinary talents, legends, tastemakers, cultural icons, and experts in the fields of TV, Film, Art, Food, Music, Stage, Economics, […]

“Rock Bottom” Never Felt So Good – by Dana Craig

September 14, 2014 by rhapcityblog

I think we throw around the term “force of nature” around willy nilly. Don’t you think? The Dictionary defines the phrase as such: “In physics, one of the fundamental forces that occur in nature and affect the structure of the universe, including gravitation, electromagnetism, strong force, and weak force.” When we then apply the term to human beings, we must be careful, for not just any Tom, Dick, or Harry fits this definition. There have been a few- John Belushi, […]

So I Did the Inevitable OITNB Binge- by Michael Dezort

August 25, 2013 by rhapcityblog

So I just finished OITNB, Season One. My introduction to this new show was a subway ad at 103rd St that I would absent-mindedly look at while I waited for the C train to show up… which, let’s face it, is whenever she god-damn-well feels like it… especially if you’re hot, sweaty, and running late. But I looked at the ad and thought it looked like something that was trying too hard, and that the characters actually looked like caricatures […]

“Second Half of GIRLS, Season One” – by Benjamin Johnson

May 24, 2013 by rhapcityblog

If you haven’t read it already, here is my review of the First Half of GIRLS, Season One Now, on to the Second Half: Adam has come around, Hannah and Marnie no longer live together, Charlie has a new girlfriend, Shoshanna loses her virginity, and Jessa has gotten married…?!?!? Such is television, where things are always in flux in order to make sure the viewer doesn’t get bored. It’s also the reason why most shows end up going sideways — all the […]

“Halfway Through The First Season of Girls” – by Benjamin Johnson

May 16, 2013 by rhapcityblog

Ah, I’m waiting for disc two to watch the second half. What a great show. I had seen Lena Dunham‘s movie, “Tiny Furniture,” and became a fan of hers from that. The writing (I would say she’s a writer first) is just soo goood. It’s almost a perfect show so far; I can’t think of any criticisms to make and I have no interest in trying to cull some up. At times while watching it, I would think to myself, […]
