As I am so fond of doing so, let's talk adaptation.

Truman Capote wrote the novella "Breakfast at Tiffany's" as a character study on one of the most memorable women in literature: Holly Golightly. A free spirit running away from an abuse-riddled past, Holly's name became synonymous with style, intrigue, and the elusive. Impossible to tame, she defied any idea of how women should behave, and personified the eternal struggle to find happiness that young people continue to face. 

Most people, when presented with the name "Holly Golightly", probably think of Audrey Hepburn, as well as the film adaptation of the novella. There are so many things about this film that are now iconic: Holly's little black dress, Holly munching on a Danish in front of Tiffany's, Holly singing "Moon River", most things about Holly, really. Hepburn's performance captures so much of the original character, like her free spirit, her erratic behavior, her casual approach to life and relationships, and the darkness that lies within her. 

It's a shame that the rest of the film pays so little attention to the source material. Like Holly, "Breakfast at Tiffany's" has not aged well. Cigarettes and champagne can only get you so far. And when put together with this drinking game, they can lead to a very depressing night.

Happy almost Halloween, everyone! It's that time of year, where people like to indulge in pumpkin spice lattes, apple picking, and watching spooooky movies. So we decided to give you a couple of spoooky drinking games to try on for size.

Or at least that was the idea, but then this 80's classic caught our eye. "Teen Wolf" has received a resurgance in popularity since the television adaptation, which is now in its third season, hit the airwaves. I can't speak for the quality of the TV show; I've never seen it (I know, for shame), but I'm not sure it can top this cult hit. This movie taught us that you should always stay true to yourself, because people will accept you...as long as you're good at organized sports. And if you get turned down constantly by the pretty popular girl, don't worry! Your childhood friend is there as a back-up. And make sure to avoid dangerous stunts unless you have the strength that only the full moon can bring you.

Yeah. This is a weird one. How did it slip past my radar for this long?

As we watched through "The Holiday," we invented different movies with similar premises that would have been more enjoyable to watch. Perhaps a buddy comedy, in which Cameron Diaz and Kate Winslet meet and help each other sort out their love lives. How about a movie in which Winslet and Diaz trade houses and fall in love with each other through a series of intimate scenes involving the others' possessions? Or even a movie that is just Kate Winslet and Jack Black's love story that's an hour shorter?

"The Holiday" had a good cast, a decent premise, Hans Zimmer doing the score, and a script that could be called "fine". The problem is, a movie that started with mediocre ingredients took every wrong turn during production, and eventually became a hoary treatise on love with unlikeable characters and an emotionally manipulative storyline. 

Luckily, all the elements that cause "The Holiday" to fail as a movie make it perfect fodder for a drinking game. We had the best time not enjoying this movie, and with our game's rules, so can you!
