Google+ Review








So I know I usually review movies but a lot of people have been asking about Google+, and being a social networking nerd I'd figure I'd give a quick positive/negative list.




Positives:

- It's Simple. Like Facebook used to be...
- No Farmville! No one sending you tomato plants and asking you to join their Mob.
- Circles! It's a big feature on Google+. It's nice you can decide who sees what you say. You can seperate what posts your co-workers see from what your close friends do. Oh, and people don't know what circle you have them in (Nice!). Now, you can do this on FB but it's kind of a pain and most people don't know how to. (It's a little weird categorizing people at first, but you get used to it)
- It's connected to your gmail. I know it sounds lazy.... but now you can log-in into one place to check your email and see if you have any notifications.
- Chat system is also nice. You can chat with people through gmail or through Google+. So if a friend has gmail but not plus you can still chat with them. They also have 'Huddle'
so you can chat in groups (Facebook is trying to do this now too).
- Video Chat. The 'Hangout' feature is a great idea; You can v-chat with multiple people at once, without paying Skpe monthly. (Also see negatives)
- It's new! It's still small. No ads covering the page. No companies saying "Like Us" (but still like mine! lol) You also don't have to read you friend's 14 year-old sister pathetic updates, because she hasn't joined yet.
- It's gotten to see FB become what it is and take advantage of it's faults.
- It's Google, a name we know and trust. We know they're gonna do some cool stuff.
- It's more about sharing with friends than having friends.
- Lastly, if Mark Zuckerberg is as douchey as Eisenberg played him it's time he got his. Although, I don't think Google+ will bring down FB.

Negatives:

- It's new. I know this was also a positive, but they are still working out a lot of hiccups.
* An example would be the "great idea" I said the 'hangout' v-chat feature is. I've tested out a few times and it doesn't work so well, you can hear but not see or see and not hear. Hopefully they'll get it to work.
- Even though it's in a bar right above your email they still email you notifications. You can turn this off, but I think it's a dumb that you have to.
- You don't have to accept people who want to follow you. Anyone can follow you, so you'll have to put them all in a special circle, hide, or block them. It's kind of annoying.
- The switch over is going to be hard. I have been on Facebook for years. I don't think the switch over will be as smooth as MySpace to Facebook was.... if it even happens.
- It's a little weird going for "The Man". Google is no college kid starting a website or Tom our Myspace friend in the white shirt. You'll now notice you can '+1'(there equivalent to fb's 'like') anything you google. It just reminds you that they are trying to take over, and they are no underdog.


Overall, I like it. It's nice to be on with just a few friends for now, and fun to play somewhere new. I don't know what's going to happen with it, but it's growing fast so ask someone to invite you in.

Why I Love Harry Potter

I remember walking through the mall one day and my sister showing me the new book she had just bought, "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone", I was about 10 years-old, I had heard about it but didn't really know what it was about. Little did I know that that book would forever change me. I was a horrible at reading when I was young, I even had to take special classes and it always embarrassed me. I had grown to hate books but when my sister read that first book to my little brother and I, I fell in love.

The Harry Potter series has truly become a part of my life. I have read and listen to the books many times. I can't sleep with my own thoughts so I listen to Jim Dale read the books. In high school my best friend and I called our crush, "You Know Who" so he wouldn't know we were talking about him. For the last 12 years whenever I needed to escape I would in the books. Most importantly, I have related the characters lives to mine and they've played a big part in who I am.

Of course the books will live on forever for future generations but I have truly been blessed to grow up with them. I got to feel what it was like to wait for books 4-7 to come out. I got to go to the bookstore and wait till midnight to get them. I had the luxury of imagining what the characters looked like in my mind without actors influence. Finally, I got to watch the books grow into a world phenomenon which turned into eight movies.

At first, I hated the movies for so many reasons but now I have grown to respect them for what they are, just another way to see it all, and I love how they carry on the legacy. It was cool to watch the actors grow up in many ways, like I did and Harry did. It was great to see the world in my mind come to life even if it wasn't perfectly how I imagined it. To even my surprise Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 will always be one of my favorite movies. And now part 2 is out.

Just tonight I watched it and so many emotions ran through me. Of course, while watching this last one, there were great moments and not so great moments. There were emotions missed that meant so much to me in the book. There was a lot of jumping around and it could have been paced better, but there also was a lot of great film making and a lot of tears on my part. In the end I don't want to over analyze it because it all means too much to me.

At the end of the day I'd rather just be sad. This is the last midnight showing I'll attend. This was the end of 10 years of waiting and wanting. Wizarding World of Harry Potter(which is awesome!) will always be there, and I am sure I will love Pottermore, but it's just not the same. This was the end in so many ways and I'll miss the anticipation more than anything.

So, although I am not one for cheese, all I have to say is, I love Harry Potter and thank you J.K. Rowling. Thank you for opening my imagination, for giving me a place to go when life sucked, for helping me become a storyteller, and for allowing me to realize how much I love to read.

Monte Carlo

This one is pretty simple. Here are some quick thoughts:

  • The Lizzy Mcquire Movie meets Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, but a little better.
  • It was cute but predictable.
  • Acting was ok. I think Selena Gomez is as cute as a button (too bad she's with stupid Bieber boy).
  • Made me want to go to Europe even more.
  • The guys in it were hot.
  • Perfect for 12 year-old girls who still think they can run off somewhere a find the perfect boy.
  • Girls might wanna rent it one day. Or just catch it on TV someday.

Why Green Lantern Really Isn't That Bad

So last night I was convinced to go see Green Lantern. I really had no desire (AT ALL!) to see this in theaters. I've heard so many bad things and from the moment I saw the first trailer I thought it was going to be ridiculous. My boyfriend dragged me to it and I kicked and screamed until... I found out the new Harry Potter Trailer was going to be showing before it. So, in the end I sucked it up and went, and was pleasantly surprised. Here's the quick play by play (Without giving too much away).

Arrive at Cinebarre and order lots of calories (Yum!).

Watch some short films and then trailers....
PISSED!

No Harry Potter. Ok yes, I already watched it online the moment I could but I love watching trailers in theaters. Best part of any movie.

Green Lantern begins.

- Yes, good plan, start off with the shirt off.
Ryan Reynolds is SOOO hot (bummer Scar Jo gave him the downstairs bumps).
- Eww Blake Lively. Just. So. Annoying.
Her acting was bad, but to be fair I expected worse.
She is prettier as a brunette.
- They don't really develop any supporting characters. Although after watching X-Men First Class, were they try and shove in too many characters, i'm ok with that.
--We've got the good guy, the bad guy, and the chick. Check.
-The Suit. Not gonna lie I thought it was going to really really really bug me, but with all the other CGI it just kinda worked.
- Wow and super hero movie and Kid might actually like. Hmmm... what a concept.
- Cheesy.
- Could have a little more playing and fun.
- Ok Blake does get better, but still ew.
- Sarsgaard should just always have an accent. It's bugging him that he doesn't.
- Oddly most people call this movie jumpy, but I call it "to the point".

It ends and overall it was alright.

Critics apparently hated it. All I have to say is get the F over it. What do they expect?!?! Heaven forbid someone make and comic book movie with a simple plot line that kids can follow. I'm sure when they cast Lively and Reynolds no one was expecting something amazing, but they did well. Yes, it could have been something amazing, but few movies accomplish that. Comic book movies are all part of a money machine don't expect any crazy genius from them. Green Lantern was no where as bad as Spider-Man 3. I guess all i'm saying is go in expecting hate it and then maybe you'll like it ;).

In Theaters Now

I haven't been able to write this semester, way too busy, but of course I have a lot to say about a many things so I will say them here.

Ok lets start with movies in theaters now:

Bridesmaids (R):
Funny and sweet. It is a romantic comedy, but your boyfriend is more likely to like it than your mom. Kristen Wiig is cute and funny, she is perfectly pathetic; you almost want to smack her but can relate and feel for her. Melissa McCarthy (Gilmore Girls, Mike & Molly) totally steals the show and Terry Crews (My Favorite!) is in it for like a minute which is awesome. It could have been funnier at times although I understand they were trying to walk a fine line. Worth a watch.


Fast Five (PG-13)
What do you expect? Ok that's it.
Seriously it is. Not so good acting, fast cars, hot people(now older)... yep. Overall I loved it.


Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides:
I would say this is the third best Pirates. Not as good as the first two and not as bad as the fourth. I feel like it had good elements but was pushing too much exposition. What we all loved about the first movie was the sense of discovery and that is whats missing here. You would think with mermaids, zombies, pirates, and the fountain of youth, you would have that, but you don't. Sparrow (Depp) is just a cliche now no longer the breath of fresh air from other more realistic characters. I do have to say Penelope did great and looked beautiful, and Depp was doing his same old thing (a little heavier this time..). Overall it's a good popcorn movie not much more.In the end all I have to say is Jack Sparrow should never be your protagonist.


Hangover Part 2 (R):
Yes it is the exact same concept. I do have to say it is still pretty funny, and I appreciate the "it worked before" attitude. It's not as good as the first because it lacks the originality and freshness. It will still make you laugh most of the time but it's in no way genius. There is a bit of awkward exposition at the beginning and it's a little weird that they still leave the other friend (Justin Bartha) behind, but once it gets rolling you'll be laughing hardcore.
Thor (PG-13):
I'm sure most have seen this by now, but I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. I thought Chris Hemsworth (Thor) was going to be a bad pick. Honestly not as hot as I would want Thor to be and seemed kinda annoying. Although, after watching the film he was perfect. It was a good story with a lot of witty dialogue. Natalie Portman wasn't overbearing and there wasn't too much of Kat Dennings (sorry not a fan). Overall, a fun movie, and if your crazy and haven't seen it you should.

Quick Reviews

So apparently my sister, Shauna, is crazy because she wants me to review all movies I see so she knows what she should see. So here is a quick review of some i've seen lately.

Iron Man 2:

I'm sure most people have seen this by now but if not just wait for the DVD.

It's not horrible but also not good. It jumps all over the place and tries to cover too many aspects of the comic books. I just left confused.

Battle scenes should have been longer and conversation scenes should have been cut shorter. I mean we get that he's a drunk and that things aren't perfect.

Robert Downey, Jr. and Gwyneth Paltrow give good performances.
Scarlett Johansson kicking butt was pretty cool, but her acting was the same as usual.
I love Sam Rockwell but the dialogue he was given was cheesy and annoying.
I'm pretty sure Jon Favreau (Director/Actor) just wanted to put him self in it as much as possible.
It's just a popcorn movie without the popcorn fun.

Grown Ups: A Movie For Everyone... Wait I Mean No One.

So a couple of nights ago my boyfriend and I randomly went to the movies at 10 pm. We got there and stared at the board. He picked Grown Ups and I was down. I knew it wouldn't be great, but expected a family fun pic and left very confused.

It's about 5 friends meeting up after years when their old basketball coach dies. Something we've seen a million times; they all lived their lives differently but then come back together and find that bond again. The storyline didn't really go much beyond that.

Although this one was a little weird. The jokes were horrible almost as if they were for children, but then totally inappropriate things would jump in. Which is usual funny with Sandler movies but a lot of them were over kill.

Maria Bello's character breast feeding her 4 year old was funny like the first two times and then it got to be just plan stupid and gross.

I thought it was gonna end like five times; I mean how many "lets all realize that we love each other and need to gather together and say cheesy things" moments do you need?

Scenes went on way too long and made several actors I love look horrible. It just wasn't fun, like at all. I would waste the time seeing this one ever.


The A-Team

Finally and good mindlessly fun action flick. Joe Carnahan (Director) rocked it.
It was just fun. Explosions, a hot guy (Bradley Cooper), hot chick (Jessica Biel), big guns, and helicopter tricks.

I love Liam Neeson and this was a great role for him. Cooper was great, and after District 9 and this movie I am in love with Sharlto Copley he is hilarious. Quinton Jackson wasn't amazing but did alright, and was held up by a great cast. Jessica Biel is blah to me as always, but I think i'm only on person who doesn't like her so don't listen to me.

I think this will be one of few good blockbuster movies this Summer so good check it out.


Toy Story 3

Of course it was awesome. It was cute and fun. The new toys were fun and it was nice to see our old friends. Ken and Barbie were hilarious. Most people have been saying it's the best one, but I'd disagree. I still love the first one and this one didn't make me cry like the second one. Anyway it was awesome, it had tons of fun moments and overall a really good flick. Good see it. Oh and in 2D.

Eclipse

So Eclipse. I don't even know what to say about it. Kinda of the same thing as last time. I'm just a little sick of the ridiculousness of it. It stayed pretty close to the book which was good, because once upon a time I liked the book. The main actors still can't really act. The trailer made it look way more exciting, but I didn't think that would actually happen. Meh. So here is the play by play of my adventure going to see it:


I went to an early screening of Eclipse tonight (Jun 28th) with my two sisters and had an interesting time. Just eight months ago I did the same thing for New Moon and yeah you can read about that if you want.

This time was much the same as last, although I didn't have to stand in line as much thanks to my oldest sister's friend who got to the theater insanely early to wait. So me and my sis showed up at the Harkins theater around 3 to wait for wristbands.

Of course the crazy were there in their Eclipse t-shirts that they wasted $30 on and a girl who put a line of fake blood on her face from her lip to chin. Although people weren't as annoying this time. Oh and a lot of Native Americans? Team Jacob I guess.

At about 3:40 the same nice wristband lady came in with her lovely bands. I felt a little guilty I was number three when some people had spent the whole day there, but whatev.

So we left and did a little shopping and then came back around 5:45 to get back in line. I had to leave my phone in the car again, this was which is pretty painful when everywhere you look people are wearing stupid shirts.

So finally we get to go in after being wanded and search for electronics. Then we sit, wait and make fun of everyone. Thats what my sisters and I do best, well just the making fun part.

Ok lets get what was going through my head during the movie.

*Spoiler Alert* Although if you've read the books you should already know everything that happens and if you didn't read them just read it anyway, I mean seriously.

So the films opens on Riley. Kinda cute (way better than rpattz) but I wouldn't do him. He is being chased around by a vampire (Victoria) he's kind of an idiot. He just ran for a dark alley. Yup that's smart.

Ok the Eclipse title was pretty cool looking. Probably the best part.

Oh and then once again Kristen Stewarts voice over while we see trees on screen. Oh the trees.

OMG trees and glittery in the 1st 5 mins and I can't control myself.

(Oh if you can't tell im a very very very sarcastic person.)

Robert Pattinson is already a creep and this is his first scene. I'm gonna puke. Why is he always struggling to speak? I mean I get it he just lovesss her so much blah blah blah. JUST SAY WHAT YOU NEED TO SAY! Maybe he needs a better dialect coach. His voice is just too soft and creepy. He's suppose to be a man not a wimp. Ok sorry done with that.

For now.

Ok this whole first scene there faces have been like an inch apart. Hoped they brush, but I doubt Rpansy does(I mean he is British and already says he doesn't shower). Oh I should of counted how many times she touched her hair it was a lot.

Alright Kstew can you just give a little expression, like at all?
Oh wait it looks like she might smell something stinky. hmmm.

Ok I know Edward is gonna appear in the truck. O there he is. He is looking highhh. I still can't figure out why he looks a little retarded sometimes, I think its the way his head moves but not his eyes.

Stop struggling to speak!

And a new Volvo.

Ok Taylor (Jacob) is way hotter. Whats with the little mustache? Shave next time. Oh he is soo high too. Maybe David Slade (Director) thought it'd help them act better. It didn't work.

O wow more tree shots!

Bella and Jacob alone time. Ok Taylor is doing the slow soft talking thing now too. Shoot me.
Oh Taylor is acting mad apparently that means breathing really hard and slow.

Ok apparently Edwards wears ugly bracelets now. haha it's a little fem.

Ok first movie that Roslie's (Nikki Reed) wig looks half decent. Although Kristen Stewart needs to brush hers, it's way long and looks really fake.

Ok I thought Jacob was poor in the books? His clothes are looking pretty nice. You know when he has them on.

Council meeting part and flash back was actually alright.

In the bed. Bella you talk and Edward you just stare. Creep.

Just want to smack the nostrils off that ugly face of his. Why couldn't they get someone good looking to play Edward? I mean anyone can act bad you might as well make them pretty.

Oh good T.L. is back and shaved. He is was better looking in the last one.

Jacob and Bella cheese moment. "I love you". He is hotter I'd possibly do. Wow that punching sound effect was horrible.

Is Rpattz gonna cry. Grow some dude.

Nikki threw the paper down. That means she's mad.
Ew she just doesn't look good blonde, and she is usually really pretty.

Why can't any of the vampires act?

Oh my Jacob had said "ass" and "hell" this is getting crazy. Watch out parents! Maybe they're setting up for the baby clawing out of Bella in the next one. I can only hope.

Peter Facinelli's (Carlisle) accent keeps changing. Maybe he spent a lot of vamp time in Boston.

Emmit looks stupid.
I think everyone has a wig on.

Justin Bieber Vamp!

Kstew was actually kinda pretty in New Moon. What happen? I guess she still looks better than the first one.

The wolves are giant wolves now!

OMG if you only see this movie for one thing it's Jackson Rathbone's (Jasper) accent. I know jasper is suppose to have it because of his background, but it's shockingly hilarious. Sounds a bit like Forest Gump with a lisp.

Ok why doesn't Alice fix Jasper hair?

Civil War vamp sluts!
Did Jasper just suffocate another vampire? I thought they didn't breath?

Glitter Water!

I wonder how Edward and his super senses feels about Bella's morning breath.

Ok T.L. looks like he's struggling to breath and speak while carrying Kstew through forest. lol.

Charlie has some funny lines.

Edward may be gay, and a bit of a tease.
He's lips are just sooo red.
He just purposed. Say no! Cute ring. Crap she said yes. Meh they deserve each other. Oh my everyone in here is clapping.

OK we get the subtext of the three shots with Jacob in the middle of the couple. Stop doing it.

An Asian Vampire!

Ok perfect role of Kristen Stewart, being freezing cold. She gets to constantly shake and all the stuttering you could ever want!

Haha the "well im hotter" line from T.L. to Rpansy is funny, because it's true.

Great the pansy is crying again. Is he wearing eyeliner? Ok he actually looks ok in this tent scene, probably cuz it's dark.
Ok this man heart to heart scene is going on wayyy too long, but it does stay true to the book.
I'm bored.
Rpattz has creepy sideburns and Jacob has a stutter now too!
Ok that scene was way too long, but it's done.

Kstew has to act mad now so she breathing hard too.
I'm marrying someone else so i'm gonna make out with you... thats stupid.
Oh more clapping now for Bella and Jacob making out..

Fight Time!
Glad the Cullens color coordinated for this.
Crap Asian vampire is down.
Fight is actually pretty cool, but could be better.
Victoria (Bryce Howard) wins for worst wig!
Ok Pattinson actually does good when yelling at Victoria.
Oh fight is over. Already.

I want to pluck Dakota Fanning's eyebrows.

Didn't Esme have red hair in the first one?

Kstew please stop shaking and bouncing all the time. Hold still for 5 secs. Please.

Oh back to the cheese in the flower field.
I really dig that ring.
Why does edward look tan now? Ok it's over.


So that was that. I have to say I liked the look of New Moon a little better, and the fact Rob Pattinson was missing for most of it made it a better movie. But yeah this was this, just rent it one day and laugh at it, or read a book, or do anything else.

Clash of the What????

So I wasn't going to write about "Clash of the Titans" but now that it was number one for the weekend I can't keep my mouth shut.

Ok first of all it was only number one for a couple of reasons:

1. Not much competition:

The only other two movies opening this weekend were "Tyler Perry's Why Did I Get Married Too?" and as much as I love Perry not everyone does, and Miley Cryus in "The Last Song" (Ha. I'm not going to even give that any of my time) "How to Train Your Dragon" and "Alice in Wonderland" are still out but are mostly for kids.

2. We all were tricked into seeing it... and in 3D:

Yes, I watched it, but I like bad movies. No one thought it would be the greatness but Liam Neeson is in it. It has to be kind of good right?

Nope.

Ok I'll start with the pros:

1. It moved pretty quick. It was only two hours. No 20 minutes of slowly walking through the desert or long boring randomly placed sex scene. It kept moving and something was always happening.

2. Some of the battles were cool. Which is always fun.

3. Sam Worthington is hot.

4. Liam Neeson said "Release the Kraken!" and Ralph Fiennes was in it.

5. It looked pretty cool. Nothing to write home about but it was fun to watch.

And the con's:

1. Wait what happened? It moved quick, and while that's way better then sitting though a boring three hour flick, they could of added a little more time to at least explain who was who. People were just popping in from all over the place.

2. Wait what's going on? Lots of fights but the editing was off. Some would turn around with no sword and then in the reverse they'd have two! Ok, not that extreme, but you could never really tell who was fighting who or what.

3. You're HOT Sam, but you can't really act. We all kinda of saw it in Avatar but here it was bad. But I'd pick you over Rob Pattinson any day. Oh and how did Perseus get a buzz cut back then?

4. Mr. Fiennes you don't always have to sound like Voldemort, but we love you.

5. 3D? It was not shot in 3D it was just put in during post production, and it really makes no difference. Seriously it doesn't. Save your money.

6. Glitter!!!! So it's decided Zeus, our favorite God, and Edward, are not so favorite vampire, in a one on one glitter battle. Who can glitter the most? I'm pulling for Zeus his shine will burn the eyes.

7. That's not how it happened. Ok I'm not an expert in Greek Mythology, but I do know some of it. I know enough to know they got it wrong.

Ok I guess *SPOILER ALERT*

Acrisius, Perseus's Grandfather was the one who cast Perseus and his mother, Danae's in the sea. Both mother and child survived.

Perseus ended up with Andormeda.

Perseus gave Medusa's head to Athena. Getting Medusa's head was Perseus's greatest moment and it over took the big battle in the movie.

Io was a Nymph Zeus kept banging and hide her from Hera by turning her into a cow. Hera found out and tried to punish Io. Io did eventually return to human form and had Zeus's child and then went on to marry some guy and have more kids. So Perseus doesn't even end up with her and why would Zeus give his son his left overs?










*ALERT OVER*



Ok so that is that. I just had to get a few things off my chest. It's an alright movie, but I'd wait for the DVD you don't have to see it in theaters. I never saw the original so maybe that gives more insight, but whatever. That's all I have to say about that.

My New Moon Experience

So I went and saw an early screening of Twilight New Moon yesterday, and here is what went down:

2:15 pm: Get a text from my siser saying she has an extra ticket to the New Moon screening. I'm bored, sick and need a good laugh so I decide to go. Major plus it's FREE.

3:00 pm: Arrive at Regal Cinema to meet up with my sister's friends's brother, who has been waiting since 8:45 am to ensure we get in and have good seats. Strange crowd of, young girls in various Twilight/New Moon shirts, and older unattractive people. Now we wait.

3:36 pm: Rumors, sweet rumors of numbered wristbands that will allow us to leave and come back.

3:38 pm: Annoying teens running and screaming. Need a gun.

4:06 pm: Lady with wristbands! I love her.

4:16 pm: Chili's!

5:? pm: Back to the theater. Get to stand inside now. Bored. Had to leave cell in car for screening. I need a nap.

6:15 pm: The adults are worse then the teens. I don't want to hear about your anime or about how you live with your mom.

People in front of us are just people who love free stuff, they didn't even read the books. My sister said that they said "we don't read". Don't laugh, don't laugh.

I miss my phone!

6:16 pm: Line up in order to get wanded for cell phones and video recording devices. I hope they accidently touch me somewhere so I can free tickets to something else ;).

6:20 pm: The free stuff people are talking about how they discovered they can go to Whole Foods all day and just eat free samples. They probably like Obama money too.

6:22ish pm: Enter theater. I love sitting. So many "OMG" and "I'm soooo excited"

Things I need to do:
Invest in a watch.
Invest in a "Team Sanity" Shirt.
Pray for today's youth.

6:40 pm: Theater is filling with press, young teens, "cool" moms, and D&D crowd.

6:42 pm: I miss my phone!

6:55 pm: Suppose to start in five. Why am I here?

7:06 pm: It begins. A full moon (isn't it called New Moon?) sits on the screen and the title is revealed. Here we go:

Oh great it starts with another cheesy voice over.

Wow didn't fix the glitter problem.

More trees within first two minutes.

Ok Robs acting consists of making weird facial expressions. It looks like he just farted and is trying not to laugh about it.

Taylor not much better than the other two "actors" in beginning, but he gets better.

Jasper looks better, but is still trying to hold in his fart.

Kristen's acting:
Little smirk.
Short breath.
Scratches forehead... a lot.
But overall not as bad as usual. She had some good moments. Good for Chris Weitz.

We know it's a paper cut you don't need to announce it.

Cinematography 100% better than Twilight. Thank you Chris Weitz and Javier Aguirresarobe.

Rob's mind while acting:
Did I fart?
That's funny.
Breathe it in.
I'm sad.
I'm mad.
Breathe deeper.

The man sure takes lots of deep breaths for playing someone who doesn't need to breathe.

The kissing sounds like they're getting it on.

Random screams in sleep also sounds like dirty time.

Bella's high school friends have good timing. They're fuuny.

Oh a creepy Edward ghost who moves like a death eater. That's... interesting.

Why does Bella have to describe everything through voiceover emails to Alice?


Girl's in theater scream for:
Taylor.
Rob.
Taylor removing shirt.
Taylor with short hair.
Other hot teen werewolves.
And Taylor as the actual werewolf? Sexy beast? Are animals hot now?

Fun watching Kristens hair move back and forth from behind her ear in every shot, and disappearing head wounds. Continuity?


Victoria got some fashion sense and some shoes. Thats nice.

Awkward frolicking? Not good when people laugh at a "serious" moment.

Nice wig Nikki Reed. Not!

Hey Dakota Fanning was in it for like 5 seconds.

Rob's mild soft chest hair scares me.

Michael does not make for a sexy vampire.

9:12 pm: It's over. With a nice cheesy ending.


So it was better than Twilight, mainly because Pattinson wasn't in it that much. May end up being the best one because of that.

Could of done without creepy Edward ghost.

Overall wasn't great but better. It actually looked like a movie. I'm glad they dropped Hardwicke. I didn't mind it and didn't laugh at it as much as the first one. So i'm ok with you if you like it, but there are really good films out there, you should watch some.
