I thought this was a very appropriate commercial for the holiday, what about you? I love this holiday! It’s my favorite after halloween. Not because of the gifts, I’m not that shallow. It’s more about the feeling of it. I love the sense of joy. It’s hard to explain. Merry Christmas, and happy holidays! I’ll check back in soon for the next movie review, and celebrity news!
(sorry the video is gone…. I’ll need to search for it again, but it might not be up any more seeing as christmas has ended)
Hey everyone! It’s been a really long time since the last time I posted. Just wanted to let you know I’m still alive! Just wanted to give you a heads up on what I’ll be posting about in the future!
and I’m planning on something fun. Possibly a batman contest that I’ve been putting off?
As you can see, my list is very long! If you want me to post about a certain movie, feel free to give me some ideas! Other then that, I wish you all happy holidays!
All I can say is, wow. This movie was 100% better than the first. The filming was breath taking! I absolutely loved the style of the filming, and hope it is like that for the rest of the series. I was extremely disappointed with Twilight. No matters, New Moon made up for it entirely! Absolutely wonderful work! Not to mention how hot Taylor Lautner looked. That boy gained thirty pounds of muscle for this movie, and it was all worth it.
Every one did great! Kristen Stewart’s acting was much better as well! I have decided that she does a good job as Bella. Not so much in the first one though. A new director has done wonders with this movie. The effects were great, and looked extremely realistic. The CGI wolves came out amazingly! This movie will definitely not disappoint any Twilight fan. Even if your not a big fan of the first movie, but you liked the book, you will most likely like it as much as me. This film sticks very close to the book, which makes me happy. The script for this film was also much better. There is a lot of sarcasm, and Bella actually speaks normal sentences without seeming like a bumbling, blubbering fool. (not that she was that bad before). This is not a movie you should miss. It would be difficult not to get swept up in the hype, so everyone should just go see it.

With all of the hype of New Moon, a teaser poster for Eclipse made it out before New Moon even hit the theaters! With the release date set for June 30, 2010, everyone is already looking forward to it! Well, at least I am! Take a look at the edgier looking poster!
It’s only seven months away. Keep an eye out for it this summer!

Let me introduce you to the 100 monkeys! These crazy monkeys have just come out with a video for their song Ugly Girl! I’m not sure how to explain what the genre is, but their music is crazy! I love it. It’s a cool style and sound that will catch your attention.
Ugly Girl music video
This video is absolute madness! I nearly fell out of my seat laughing when I saw the reflection of the man in the mirror. I had actually thought it was a women! Just wanted to add that I thought all the monkeys looked gorgeous all glammed up! The video is hysterical. So be sure to watch it!

This movie is unavoidable. Seeing as it has had huge success among the rabid fangirls who lurk around every corner. Cue the foaming at the mouth. There is only 10 days left until the next installment of Twilight Saga comes out!
Seeing as how much hype Stephenie Meyer’s series has gotten, there was no doubt that eventually her books would become movies. Unfortunately, I made the mistake of seeing the movie before I read the books. I sat in horror and confusion as Robert Pattinson sparkled on the big screen, and the most corny things I have ever heard fell out of his extremely tight mouth. Those who had already read the book, of course, were swooning (fangirls). My interest was peeked after the movie though. I hadn’t ever even heard of the series before the movie. So I went digging through the books in my house to find a copy. Leave it to my mother to have a series meant for teenagers. I found it, and sat on the floor, and read the first chapter. All I can say is that I got sucked into it, and I couldn’t put it down. Her series was great, and it had me hooked. I just wished Stephenie would finish Midnight Sun! It’s like she’s punishing all of her fans for something one person did! Please Stephenie! Pick it back up!
The Movie
“What would you do if you could live forever?”
Bella Swan (Krisen Stewart) has moved to the small town of Forks, Washington, to live with her father. Her father, Police Chief Swan (Billy Burk), welcomes her back. Her mother, Renee (Sarah Clarke) lives in Phenix, Arizona, with her new husband. On Bella’s first day of school at Forks High, she sees the mysterious Cullen family. When Bella meets Edward (Robert Pattinson), and they fall in love, she is suddenly thrust into a world of vampires and werewolves.
Personally, I am more of a fan of the books. The acting wasn’t amazing. The graphics didn’t blow me away, but they were OK, for a low budget movie. Most of the actors who were casted, fit there characters pretty well. The only actress who I am still unsure of is Kristen Stewart. I mean, she looks the part, but she does not act the way I would have imagined Bella Swan to. I would give the movie a five out of ten. It’s not the best movie I have ever seen. Trust me, you would have known by now if it was my favorite movie.
A bit of New Moon
By now, any diehard fan has seen the New Moon trailer. I am very impressed with what I have seen so far, and I am looking forward to seeing the new movie. Having a larger budget and a new director can do wanders! They have also done some makeup fix ups. Just want to say, they look so much better! They look more inhuman rather than people with white makeup on.
But it makes me really sad that they replaced Victoria (Rachelle Lefevre). She did a great job! But, you never know how everything will turn out in the end.
Comment and tell me what you think! Which one is better? The book, or the movie?
Dear Stephenie Meyer,
If you ever happen to see this, it is not meant to bash your work in any way. Your books were great! Please don’t take anything I said about the movie to heart! I know it’s your baby. I’m sorry!
If you have looked at this website, please leave me a comment! It would make me so, so, so happy! I am amazed at how many people have looked at my blog! Don’t get me wrong, I love it! I just wish someone would leave a comment. So please, pretty please, with a cherry on top, leave me a comment!

Everyone knows what a parody is right? A parody, is a piece of writing or music that deliberately copies another work in a comical way. In this case it’s videos.
The Hillywood Show, starring the Hindi sisters, will blow you away with their parodies of the big box office movies “The Dark Knight” and “Twilight”. Their videos are fantastic! They have sponsors who allow them to borrow props, and sets (the sponsors don’t give them money), and their grandmother does their costumes. That’s all the help they get. The filming, the makeup, the editing, and the directing is all done themselves. With their growing fandom, their show is quickly becoming a phenomenon on the web. It’s amazing how much these two sisters can do! Their episodes and parodies are a must see for any Batman, Twilight, and Johnny Depp fan. Be sure to check out their website! Maybe one day we will see them on television. Thank you for all your hard work Hillary, Hannah, and the Hillywoodshow cast!
The Dark Knight Parody
Their are many, many spoofs of this movie on the web. Most of them are dull, and just weren’t very good. This one however, caught my eye. This was the first video I had ever seen by the Hillywood Show. I was at a complete loss for words the first time I watched it. Harvey/ Two Face, and Crane/The Scarecrow were perfect. Harvey’s make-up can be very hard to make and to pull off, but they did it flawlessly. I was also extremely surprised to see Harley Quinn in it. She was one of my favorite characters in the batman cartoons, and I was so happy that they put her in it. I hope Christopher Nolan finds a way to fit her in the next film (if there is one).
This video is honestly the best TDK spoof I’ve seen on YouTube. The costumes, the set, the actors, everything was amazing!
Twilight Parody
This is another great video. The choreography in it is amazing. They did an awesome job coming up with the make-up. Hillary makes a perfect Bella, and Hannah makes a wonderful Alice! With all the hype they have gotten with their Twilight Parody, they are busy filming their New Moon Parody right now. Keep an eye out for the New Moon Parody around January!

This movie was absolutely amazing. I’m not even sure if it is even possible to come up with the right word to describe it. It’s unbelievable. It takes a few moments after the movie ends for it to really sink in and hit you. When it hits you, it’s like a freight train! The movie leaves you stumbling out of the theatre in shock! The acting was amazing. The graphics were amazing. I could go on and on. This movie is like water to someone in a dessert. It leaves you wanting more! This, everyone, is my absolute FAVORITE movie of 2008. After The Dark Knight, I’m not sure I can look at other movies the same.
The vigilante Batman/Bruce Wayne, is still protecting the city of Gotham. He continues his work with the help of Lt. Gordon (Gary Oldman). Both of them, along with Gotham’s new White Knight, Harvey Dent (Aaron Ekhart) are trying to rid the city of the mob. The mob, has had enough with the Batman, and have hired some help. They hire the Joker. What they don’t know though, is that he really isn’t in it to help them. His plan, is to throw the city into a state of chaos, and to prove a deadly point. It will take every bit of the Batman’s strength to take him down. Can he do it? Or will it all end in tragedy?
This movie is mind-blowing.
The suspense leaves you trembling. All I can say is, Christopher Nolan is a talented genius. I also just wanted to mention Jonathan Nolan, and Hans Zimmer’s work were perfect as usual.
Christian Bale did a good job as Batman/Bruce Wayne. He pulls of the arrogant millionaire playboy pretty well. The Batman’s voice sounds like he has throat cancer, but it is good. Gary Oldman did great as well. He is one of my top favorite actors, and he did great playing Jim Gordon. It’s a change to see him as the good guy for once. Sir Michael Caine, and Morgan Freeman are phenomenal actors, and it’s great to see them still working their best.
This entire movie circles around one character though, The Joker. Heath Ledger did a mouth dropping performance. When you watch the movie, it takes a minute for it to click in your mind that the sinister clown, is really just Heath. He transformed himself for this movie. There wasn’t one moment in the movie where you can see Heath, only the Joker. He did what all actors and actresses dream of being able to do. The hunched shoulders, mouth twitch, and any movement he made screamed insanity. Don’t forget the voice! He worked on this persona for a month alone in his apartment, and the result was amazing. He may be gone, but he left a lasting impression on everyone he knew.
This action movie is a must see! Thank you Christopher Nolan for making this movie!
“He’s just out of control. He has no empathy. He’s a sociopath, psychotic, mass-murdering clown. And I’m just thoroughly, thoroughly enjoying it.” – Heath Ledger on playing the Joker.
This post is in memory of Heath Ledger & Conway Wickliffe. Tragically, Heath passed shortly after finishing up The Dark Knight; Conway Wickliffe, who worked as a stuntman, died on the set of the movie. Rest in peace!
