Makeup Fridays

 

*Blogged by Maria*

Hey everyone! Before I start into the tutorial, I want to say a big “get well soon” to Kiki who has badly hurt her leg. Pop over to her twitter and give her encouraging messages here .

And another thing, I now post little non-makeup videos over at my Bourjoisxx channel and I’m trying something new so go check it out and tell me what you think.

Today’s Makeup Tutorial will be the MTV Movie Awards 2010. I loved this look makeup wise. It must have been so warm in the middle of summer in L.A. and this fresh and minimal look was perfect and went very well with the black and gold of her dress. For the fashion break down, click here.

FACE

Usual drill for the face. I applied my foundation with a brush for better coverage and powder to reduce shine. Then using a medium brown (not applying too much) i highlighted my cheekbones.

 

EYES

Starting with eyebrows, i brush them out and add a natural colour but not too much colour. Just add colour where it’s needed on your brows. Then apply a clear mascara to the brows to keep them in place.

Next apply a primer potion and apply the colour "Chopper" to the eyelid with a fluffy brush. extend the colour only slightly past the crease. Apply to to the lower lid also in a thin – medium line. Next apply a medium brown colour to the eyelid only. Don’t make it too strong. Next apply the cream liner with a thin liner brush. Apply it in a medium – thick line and draw a  small flick at the end. then using the pencil liner, apply it lightly to the lower lid. Then smudge the top of the cream liner slightly. Next apply mascara and you’re done.

LIPS

For lips, just add clear or natural gloss, or lipstick .

Unbreakable 2 Coming? Kinda.

Unbreakable is one of my favourite comic book movies, even though it's not based on an actual comic book. But it is a realistic representation of someone who realizes he is a super hero. Not a super-man type, but a hero with powers who fits into our real world.

Still with me? Good.

M. Night Shyamalan has been teasing us with the idea of a sequel to Unbreakable since the film was released.  As it turns out, Shyamalan realizes that the film, for whatever reason, is not going to happen, so he's adapting his ideas for the sequel into a standalone film sans Bruce Willis' character.

Still with me? No? I don't blame you.

Shyamalan says he had "such a cool idea for a villain" for Unbreakable 2 that he began writing ideas around it. When the projct became less likely, he cannibalized that idea for his upcoming Night Chronicles series. The first of those films, Devil, hits theaters on Sept. 17.

With Shyamalan's name producing diminishing returns, if Devil and its follow-up fail at the box office, it's possible the Unbreakable non-sequel will never see the big screen anyway. If it's not a direct sequel then I say who cares, even though I am curious about what could have been. 

Revealed: Mark Gatiss has penned a new Doctor Who episode for upcoming series 6

It was revealed that Sherlock co-creator (and Doctor Who writer and actor) Mark Gatiss has penned a new episode for the upcoming sixth series of the British Sci-Fi show.

Richard Clark, who will be directing 2 episodes, has written on his twitter acccount that he was:

In the thick of Dr Who. New drafts coming along. Mark Gatiss story wonderful.

From what Clark tweeted, and from the fact that Neil Gaiman himself revealed that his episode will probably be the third to air, it appears that the Mark Gatiss episode will air right after Gaiman's, making it the fourth story when the series begin in the spring:

I suspect these 2 [the Neil Gaiman and Mark Gatiss episodes]with go out 3&4 as planned - splitting series in two will leave less wriggle room

There you have it. I hope the new Gatiss episode will be better than Victory of the Daleks, which was one of my least favourite episodes from last series. But having seen The Great Game, Sherlock's last episode which Gatiss wrote, I know he can be utterly brilliant, so I'm crossing my fingers for an awesome episode.

Trailer Alert: Deaden

We're all about low budget movies here in The Basement and, when we get the chance to promote one starring someone we know, we jump at it.

Deaden is an action/revenge film co-written and starring Canadian actor, writer, director, stunt man and film critic John Fallon. Regular readers might know him better as The Arrow of Arrow in the Head, one of pioneers of Internet horror-news sites .

Listeners of our upcoming radio show will get to hear an exclusive interview Shawn and I had with Fallon on Oct 8 at 10 p.m. Until then, enjoy this action packed U.K. trailer for Deaden. The film has yet to premiere here in Canada. Hopefully it will soon because we here in The Basement would love to see it!

Neil Gaiman talks about his Doctor Who episode table read

Left to right - Neil Gaiman, Matt Smith, Steven Moffat, director Richard Clark

Author, writer, and all around Sci-Fi God Neil Gaiman, just put up a post on his blog about the first table read of his upcoming Doctor Who episode. In it, Gaiman reveals that his episode is still set to be the third to air in the spring (So YAY! we wont have to wait in the fall to see it!).

Neil Gaiman said :

the table read was pretty amazing, the guest star or stars will be fabulous, Matt's great, Arthur's wonderful and I never got to say hullo to Karen (who was amazing).

I had a meeting after the readthrough with the producers and director, pinpointing stuff that needs fixing or clarifying ("So we need to change that without making it longer or spending any money. Right."). But nothing that needs rewriting is anything other than cosmetic, and I should get it done tomorrow or Thursday.

(Favourite quote from S. Moffat: "Look, you understand that, and I understand that, but we're Science Fiction people. The other 100% of the audience may not get it.")
