Batman : Dark Knight

I cannot express how much I cannot wait to see this. At the same time… it’s gonna be sad and creepy. RIP Heath.

Underworld:Evolution & Some School Stuff

Ok I saw Underworld:Evolution on saturday. I was going to go see it on Friday with my 7 yr old nephew who usually goes to the movies with me if I am not going alone. However I didn’t get to go see it on Friday which turned out to be a good thing.

SPOILER ALERT!!! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

<%spoiler%>Ok well there is a sex scene between Michael and Selene, so no kids people… unless they are at arms length and you can cover there eyes. I found the scene to be useless and a waste of time, sort of a filler scene. Then a few minutes later we see a brief other one with another vampier. I dont know why the director thought to put them in the movie, they completley took away from the movie in my opinion.

But other than that it was a great movie. Finally a sequal to a movie that IS GREAT!! And not a sequal just to make a movie and try to capatolize on the first one (i.e. FAF2). Seeing Marcus was great, Michael it looked like they made him look a bit more Lycan than the first which is retarded since there is maybe a few hours suppose to have gone by in the timeline from the firt movie to the 2nd movie.

This is a great movie, go watch it… with no kids.

Now onto school, I have now gone to each of the classes that I chose once. I am taking on Mondays: Intro to Writing Fiction. Tue. I have Intro to Cinema, and Macromedia Flash. Then on Thur. Intro 2 Cinema again.

I think overall the most challenging that I will enjoy will be the Fiction class… in which in the first class (yesterday), I had 15 minutes to write a story on a potato… yep a potato. Macromedia will be interesting and I hope to learn more website related flash then just making things move and animations and such like that. My Cinema class I am taking for pure interest, I had wanted contemporary but didnt have a time I could attend. But this class is fine, it focus’ on movies made up to 1960… so I am having a hard time choosing one for my semester assignment… since I wasnt born more then 20 years later. The only movies Ive seen made before 1960 are Shirley Temple movis, Elvis movies, and I think thats about it.

Well thats it for now. Check back soon for probably me ranting about my homework or something.

Chronicles of Narnia, The Apprentice, Thanks, etc

Ok, I just now got a chance to sit and watch the Apprentice Finale (Trump), and I have to say I am dissapointed and disgusted. Randall, he showed that he was nothing more then an asshole. He has got to be the biggest insecure jerk there ever was. He won, had the job he wanted already, and Trump for the first time ever was going to hire BOTH of them, but Randall said he shouldn’t. Randall, you scared prick, I hope you fail in your new position you selfish bastard.

Moving onto movies, Chronicles of Narnia is probably the most amazing movie out right now. I had always heard about the book, but didnt know anything about it. I went to see the movie because the previews looked good, and my 7 yr old nephew wanted to go. He always is the one who goes with to a movie, I rather go alone, need my space lol (no not that damn my space online), actual space away from my life, but he goes with alot.

He enjoyed the movie as well, and I enjoyed it. I am now looking into the other books, and I heard The Prince of Caspian (I believe that’s what its called), will be the next movie made. Its rumored that Disney was happy with its box office openings (about 65million in the US, and 101million worldwide), that they have green lighted another movie.

The actors in the movie all did a fantastic job in this. I dare say I liked it if not a smidge more then Harry Potter, then the same. So if you have not seen it, go see it.

Well I have no finished my first semester back to school. I do not know my final grades yet, as they havent been posted but I’ll post when I do know. I also need to decide what I want to take next, and go register before it gets closer to Jan. 14 when classes start again.

I still have no idea as to what I want to do career wise, so right now I am just taking classes from here and there.

Well that is it for now, my head hurts by my left eye thanks to my nephew who kicked me in the head with his damn shoes on. Damn brat.

I want to thank Territell a user over at the Bonanza World Forums (look at my looking foward list), for sending me Ponderosa! I cant wait to get that, Territell THANK YOU!!

And I want to say thanks to Dev! A user at my forum, who has her own yahoo group, in which I won a Dukes of Hazzard bag! Cant wait to get that too.

Updated my Looking Fwd To List, and Things To Do as well.

Harry Potter & The Goblet of Fire!!

ITS OUT!! ITS OUT!! ITS OUT!!

OK, those of you who know me, have read my blog before know I like movies, tv, stories, and all that. Harry Potter 4 opened Friday, and I sure as hell managed the money to go see it, plus I get a student discount lol, for being a student. Had I known, I might have started college earlier lol.

I am watching 2 specials I recorded Thursday about Harry Potter, one on E! and one on A&E. I didnt watch them before cause I knew it would have spoilers for the movie, and I HATE Spoilers. I’ll want to kill anyone who tells me spoilers.

I saw this Friday, and it was GREAT!! You think after every movie how can they get any better… BUT THEY DO!!!

This one is actually darker then the others that have been more fluff. And its great. The ending was a shock to me, sad, yet WOW!!!

If I wasn’t broke as always I would go see it again. This was great!! I cannot wait for the DVD… I’ll probably buy a bootleg at the swap meet until it he DVD comes out, as I always get a bootleg, and buy the DVD when it comes out. I usually see the movie more then once in theaters too, but I don’t know if I will this time, unless someone treats me to it lol.

If you have not seen it, GO SE IT! If you think Harry Potter is a crap kids story go see this one, you might be surprised and like this one.

So much more I would like to comment on, but I dont want o spoil anyone.

Serenity FINALLY SAW IT! SPOILERS!!

OMG!

I just saw this, and if I ever meet Joss I will praise him for having such a brilliant mind, and then bitch him out for having such a brilliant mind.

I like how we got to see how Simon busted River out of such a high prority top secret place. The hologram thing was cool.

Simon punched Mel!!

Ok there was a lot I liked about this movie, but I have to go straight to the ending. SO BEWARE!!!

They killed The Shepard. I couldnt believe that. I was like… HOW COULD HE!!!

But then later on, I almost had a heart attack.

THEY KILLED WASH!!! WASH!!!! That right there tore at me. How could he (Joss) do that, that was like killing Fred and Wes all over again (Angel).

WHY WOULD HE DO THIS! WHY!!! Anyone know if the actor wanted out?? In case there was a possibility for more movies??

God that was so damn messed up.

Then Simon got shot, and I was NOT ANOTHER ONE!! River kicked some serious Reever Ass.

The alliance being the cause of what made Reevers. That was cool. Mal having the Reevers follow them to the Alliance, that was Awesome!!

We saw how Mal was being torn up over his decisions, and not knowing why he cared so much, YOUR NOT THE HARD ASS YOU THINK YOU ARE!

Jayne going to get River to take her in, that was so Jayne, and at the same time, seemed out of character for him, at the time, already being with them for more then 8 months, since its been 8 months supposedly from when the show ended, the time line.

Simon punched Mal out in the beginning, that was funny. River beating Jayne up that was cool.

But man… this movie would have been better with one thing… NOT KILLING WASH!!!

Ok I’ll post more comments later… I need to process the fact they killed Wash off…

Serenity TODAY!! Post PRE-Seeing

Ok… Serenity opens TODAY!! YES!! I will be seeing this today, even if I have to take a cab to the damn movies. I SHOULD HAVE SEEN IT WED.!!! At the screening I had tickets for, but NOOOOOOO They had to give out passes to MORE PEOPLE then THEY HAD ROOM FOR!!

Ok well, anyways, I am going today. I shouldnt, I cant afford to go, but I am going… even though I need to get the money to go… I’ll figure something out. BUT I AM GOING! I called the theater nearest to me… earliest showign is 4:20pm. That pissed me off. I like showings around Noon, on opening day. That way I can go, and there not be hardly anyone in there. Thats the way to see a movie.

After I see it I’ll post my review.

Serenity

I found out yesterday I won a advanced screening pass to see Serenity 2 days before it opens… and wouldnt you know it… SAME DAY AS MY PSYCH CLASS! Well if I can find someone to go with me, since its like 30-40min away, I’ll skip class and go. But so far I’m not having any luck.

I WANT TO GO!! DAMN IT!! I never win anything, and when I do, not only does it have ONE obsticale to get by, but THREE!! 1) No Ride, 2) Its Far 3) Same night as my Psych class.

It is not fair. I’ve waited for this movie since they canceled Firefly. Ive waited that damn long to see this show going again, and when I heard it was gonna be a movie, man I was anxious to see this. Joss is brilliant. Fox were stupid idiots to cancel Firefly. They didnt promote it like they could have, like they do their stupid reality shows, (speaking of reality shows Apprentice is back! Trump… not that crap Martha Stewart one… I cant watch that… she looks evil…) AND had it on FRIDAY night! They wanted it to fail. They pre-empted it way to many times, and didnt even let Joss show the real pilot… until AFTER it was canceled.

AND in better news… finally found Chris! Told him never to go a month without emailing me.

My Thoughts on Recasting of Harry Potter main characters…

This is what I emailed to the Warner Bros. They are idiots, if they think they can recast ANY of the kids. I dont care how old they are in real life. They are Harry, Ron, and Hermoine, and Malfoy. I wont watch any movie that does not cast them as the kids. They will loose MILLIONS. Seriously though, they have to know this. They have to know the vast fan base HP has, and recasting would seriously hurt their $$$. If they recast, we will truly have confirmation that the head of Warner Bros. are on something…

Here’s what I sent to Warner Bros. for my peace of mind… which aint much since I’m still worried about something going on with me… but thats another story.

My WB Email:

>>I know this email wont do any good, but I have to send it anyways.
>>
>>To even think of recasting Harry, Ron, and Hermoine, is ridiculous. Your WB >>shows all have 20 something year olds playing High school kids. No one
>>cares how old they really are. Rupert, Dan, and Emma ARE OUR Hermoine, >>Harry, and Ron. As well as Tom as Malfoy. The movies would suffer greatly
>>if you were to recast. Your better off not making anymore if you do not keep >>the kids the same.
>>
>>I am 21 years old and enjoy the HP movies. But I and THOUSANDS, you >>must already know this, of fans would no longer watch the movies. It isnt >>smart buisness. This isnt a soap opera, this movie franchise is what it is >>because of the fans, and the the actors, and the fans will not accept a cast >>change. With Dubeldore, it was different, the original actor sadly passing >>away, and still people have issues with this new Dumbeldore, but he is not >>Harry, Ron and Hermoine, or Malfoy. You cant change them, it wont work.

Batman Begins Movie

I am sick as hell still. Sore throat, ear ache, fever that comes and goes, but I still got my ass out to the movies, to see the new Batman Begins.

Now, I’ve said it here, and on message boards I go to, I did not like the casting. And who they had got for Bruce Wayne/Batman. However once at the movies, and watching as it went on.

This is the best Batman movie EVER made. Not cheesy, not comedic like the other Bat’s movies made before. IT WAS HELL’A GOOD!

Don’t read more unless you seen it already!

Damn this was a good movie. To see how he trained, what he did to get to be the bat. To see him almost kill the man that killed his parents. To see him struggle with his fear, and anger. The costume was great. The car was killer! Gordon, “I have to get one of these.” Ha!

Scarecrow however was not scary at all. When Bats poisoned Krane, and he saw Bats as a real mutated batman, AWESOME.

The way he moved in the suit. The way everything was put together was great.

When he called the bats for backup, that entire seen was AMAZING.

I take all I said bad about this movie BACK.

At the end, the Batman signal, and Gordon telling him some nut is now leaving a calling card… turn it over.. its the Joker!!!! DUN! DUN! DUN! Sequal. Go see this movie.

I believe now, that Bats will decimate Superman. Superman has HORRIBLE casting. I said I didnt like Bats casting, but I’ve always said the new Superman movie has HORRIBLE HORRIBLE casting.

This movie was insanely good. Katie Holmes did a decent job.

I cant believe Wayne Manor burned down, and they blamed it on ‘drunken playboy millionare burns down home.’

Makes him look terrible. When he was just saving all those ignorant sell outs, fake friends from being burned and killed. But alas, that is the life of Bruce Wayne, tortured soul.

Cant have friends, cant have love.

Tis why Bats is my favorite superhero (I got a few second favorite superheroes). He’s just a man, no powers, nothing. Just him.

I am worried that opening on Wed instead of Fri, will hurt its Box Office Opening day Income.
