About Sonia Aurora

Aspiring screenwriter and seamstress, Sonia's dream is to write life-tweaking films while product-placing her own line of handbags. In 1999, she wrote, co-directed and co-starred in the short film Dr. Lovestrange, or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bug, a satirical homage to Stanley Kubrick set amidst the panic of Y2K. She is working on her next short about the Mayan Calender that she hopes to finish before the end of the world. Ever the late bloomer, she finally started a blog chronicling her misadventures as one half of a long distance relationship (http://llddr.wordpress.com). She still struggles with which picture to kiss before bedtime: her boyfriend's or Bruce Campbell's. And, in the interest of time, she'd like to start thanking the Academy now.

Geek Relating: An Introduction

Just as superheroes struggle with whom and when they will unmask their true identities, so do Geek Girls. I knew pretty early on how geeky I was, and I know I never fit in within my family dynamic. I’m the “bookworm”, the “nerd”, the “geek”.

Pushing Daisies – Circus, Circus

By Sonia Aurora

As much as I love my DVR it likes to be quirky, and not in a good way. Actually, if it were a female, I might use the “B” word for my DVR, who may be offended I’ve never named it anything but “DVR”.

Pushing Daisies: Bzzzzz!

By Sonia Aurora

The facts were these…

I missed this show immensely, and not even realizing how much so until the second season premiered. The delicious dialogue, the delectable colors, it’s just. . . it’s so hard to explain how much fun this show is, whimsical and sweet without being overly so. Really, there is nothing else out there like it, and I’d forgotten how lost I could get for that hour every week. Thank you, new network season, thank you!

Comics: Evil Dead #3 & 4 – Come Get Some

By Sonia Aurora

Oh Ash, how I love thee…let me count the ways…

But first I have one bone to pick…where my purchase of Evil Dead Issue #4 went unshipped for 4 months (I swore I pre-ordered it), and then I realized it had not only been published but I never got it, and now it was out of stock.

Damn, damn technology. (And thank you, Ebay).

Comics: Echo

By Sonia Aurora

I’m still a newbie when it comes to comics. Mainly, I’ve read recommendations to comics, and my first real foyer was the cross over comics of Batman vs. Predator back in 1999 when a friend gave it to me while we sat freezing, filming an outdoor scene for a movie (my life as a movie extra was short lived, but it did begin a like of comics).

The Zombie’s Guide to Diet & Exercise

by Sonia Aurora You’re now a zombie, but that’s no excuse to let your physique go. Granted, you will still start to decay and lose some of your muscular structure, but you will get hungry and you will need to be sure that you don’t overdo it. Related Stuff:

For the Love of Bruce: Evil Dead #1 and #2

By Sonia Aurora I love Bruce Campbell. That’s not even the heavy statement it once was for me, seeing as I also love my dog Chewy (yes, short for Chewbacca) and my amazing boyfriend who lives in Iowa (not Ottawa, silly friend Melinda). But my love for Bruce precedes both of those, probably my first [...]

Pushing Daisies: Corpsicle

By Sonia Aurora First of all, I want to thank the Golden Globes for acknowledging Pushing Daisies and Lee Pace for how amazing this little show that could is. What could have been a show that got tossed aside like Wonderfalls and The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr. has received not only critical accolades but [...]

Pushing Daisies: Bitter Sweets

By Sonia Aurora OhmeGod OhmeGod OhmeGod. Ok, it would be a GREAT disservice to this episode for me to go from the ending scene and then recap. But the last scene, the last things said, sent such a shockwave through me that I forgot: 1-Raul Esperanza showed up again on the show as Alfredo “Fredo” [...]

Pushing Daisies: The Smell of Success

By Sonia Aurora And after I’ve finally finished digesting all my Thanksgiving dinner, and gotten my computer up and running again, I submit to you a very belated synopsis of Pushing Daisies’ “Smell of Success.” (Really, who breaks a cell phone AND a modem over a holiday? Me, that’s who). Related Stuff:

By Sonia Aurora In this week’s episode – Emerson flirts?? This week showcased the repercussions of Ned and Olive’s ” friendly expression of innocent gratitude” from last week- their roadside kiss when Ned saved her from Momma Jockey run amok. Ned is extremely awkward around Olive. No, Ned, is always awkward, in an aw shucks [...]

Pushing Daisies: Girth

By Sonia Aurora Poor Ned. This week we learned the reason why Ned has trust and touching issues, that far exceed his gift of bringing the dead back to life. You see, his “jackass” of a father dumped young Ned into a boarding school for boys, then ran off and remarried and got 2 new [...]

Pushing Daisies: Pigeon

By Sonia Aurora We had a little trouble in paradise for our untouchable heroes Ned and Chuck this week – a guy who sparked Chuck’s romantic interest. While stumbling upon a crime scene (a pilot cartoonishly crashed into an apartment building) Chuck slips and starts to fall. Ned can’t catch her, so Apartment Dweller du [...]

Pushing Daisies: The Fun in Funeral

By Sonia Aurora This week: Secrets revealed! Choices! Consequences! But first, I have to say I was super excited to see Raul Esperanza join the cast as (I am hoping) a series regular guest star. He’s done a TON of Broadway (I can only assume he and Kristen Chenoweth are BFF) and I did get [...]
