The Importance of Being Lauren

Today I saw Race To Witch Mountain at the dollar movie. I for one was not impressed. The only thing they had against the original movie is that they cast Alexander Ludwig as one of the lead male characters, he's one hundred percent more adorable then the other boy. Other than that the original wins by a long shot, although I didn't particularly like the sequel to it...... This movie had way too many car chases for my taste, and even though I've liked Annasophia Robb in everything I've seen her in; I thought she was a little over the top in this one. The worst part though was in the middle of the movie when they dropped the "Global Warming" bomb. *sigh* Just so you know I rolled my eyes sarcastically at that part. (I recycle paper, and I pick up trash off the street when I can. And I never litter. I think I'm helping the environment by doing that, now stop trying to guilt me!) I have to give Disney a couple points for being subtle about it though.... Out...

Monday afternoon I had the pleasure of watching the highly anticipated movie Twilight ! I thought the movie was okay , the music was fantabulous though, and the people were extremely good looking. My mom and I laughed a lot throughout the movies running time. I almost passed out from lack of breathing because I was laughing so hard when Edward kisses Bella's forehead. (It looked like a lip-suction cup on her forehead.) And again at the very end when Bella wants Edward to bite her and Bella's eyes are rolling all over the place in anticipation!!!!! That was the greatest!!! I liked the movie don't get me wrong, but it had so much potential to be better. They put way too many "wink, wink" moments for me to take it too seriously. I loved Alice, Jasper, Emmett, and of course Edward! They are my favorite vampires!!! Now tell me what you thought of the movie........... This scene was totally awesome!! His......Hair......Is.....Perfect!!!! The best pictures of Robert P...

Once a very long time ago this happened to me. This story is probably old enough to have "Once Upon a Time" in the beginning......I promise!! The picture above is from one of my least favorite movies otherwise known as Willy Wonka . It's not that it wasn't good , I just didn't like the singing Oompa Loompas and weird chocolate tunnel scenes. I had nightmares about them for months after I watched the movie! Violet Beauregarde was one of my favorite characters from that movie so one day I decided to try what she did to perserve her gum. That's right I stuck it right behind my ear before I went to bed one night. When I arose in the morning I did not remember it so I started my day as usual. Though as soon as I got to the bathroom mirror the memory hit me. You can probably guess what happened next.....First my mom got mad at me, second I was forbidden to chew gum ever again, and last and least painful some of my hair had to be cut off. Just when I thought I co...

Have you heard of a show called Dresden Files ? Have you ever seen it at your local Blockbuster and thought that it sounded really good; but you decided to get something "better" instead? If you have done either of these things then rest assured you are not alone. My mom really wanted to get it, but of course she didn't get it then and there, but eventually she decided that it was finally time to get it. Well actually I'm the one who reserved it at the library for her, I was shocked to find that we were number 30! It seemed as though everybody wanted to see it at the same time. We've had it for two weeks now, but we only started watching it yesterday. When the rest of my family finished eating cake that was left over from my cousin's 3rd birthday party we all gathered our mushroom chairs around the computer, and started this thrilling adventure without having to move an inch. That is of course if you don't count our ice cream break, which was necessar...

Last night I had the opportunity to watch this amazing movie!! Of course that was after my dad watched it first and gave it two thumbs up. Whether it was for family friendliness, or for guaranteed emo-ness I have no idea. I suppose it was both. Since we were watching the movie at home I had to choose between getting killed for not watering my moms plants for the second night in a row, or watching the whole thing. If I had watched it all the way through I wouldn't have any tears left in my emo eyes. I love this movie because : It made me cry, there was a lot of gorgeous music (that made me cry even more), and it had a very sweet ending. (Yes, I cried at the end too) Mr. Muscle unfortunately chose the spot next to me in the mushroom chair and he got squeezed many times in my anticipation of the ending. Mr. Muscle loves superhero movies and despises anything sweet, so I was very surprised when he said that August Rush was even better than Iron Man ! * sniff* I always knew he had a ...

What movie is my favorite movie at the moment? Read on and see........ ....I have just finished watching League of Extraordinary Gentlemen . I loved this movie. I didn't think it was going to be as awesome as my dad said it would be, but I'm glad to say it was. This movie was a big nail bitter. Literally I hardly have any nails left! I now know that when you mix Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde , a vampire, an immortal, an invisible man , an expert hunter , an awesome Martial arts swordsman Captain guy , and Tom Sawyer, you have a great movie! It had wonderful action scenes, and interesting characters. And surprising villains, and heroes as well. Actually it only had one surprising hero, most of the people were bad. Anyway I highly recommend this movie to all of you.

Thank you for this award Brynn. It's awesome. I would like to give this to Whitney, Cam, Sister Face, and Lauren. One of Buster's all time favorite movies is Nacho Libre . I was not there the first time he watched it, so of course I got stuck listening to his interpretation of the movie, phony accent, and everything! After what it seemed like hours he finally stopped to breathe, and then he asked,"Sunbum, do you know what they got paid with when they won the competitions?" "No, I don't. But I'm sure that you'll tell me anyway," I replied. Unfazed by my negativity he jumped up and said,"Pretzels!" I fell over in surprise, and then I thought,"Wow! Those guys must really like pretzels! I wouldn't fight anybody for 10,000 pretzels! I don't even like pretzels!" A couple days later I decided to watch the movie to find out if it was true. As it turns out they got paid in pesos, not pretzels!...... I was pretty disappointe...

This is a another reason why I can't wait for the Twilight movie. I don't think Robert looks that bad as Edward now. The rest of them are perfect! I can hardly contain my excitement about this!

Today I had the opportunity to see The Spiderwick Chronicles , and Jumper . Here are my reviews of both.... Spiderwick Chronicles It may not have been exactly like the books but it was close enough. It made me cry, laugh, and sit on the edge of my seat in anticipation. I think that it was one of the greatest movies ever! The only thing I didn't like was that they made it a lot sweeter than the books. The books were pretty negative, and I liked it. I highly recommend this movie to all of you! * Sigh* I think that Freddie Highmore is adorable playing his own twin. I love the Spiderwick Chronicles! Jumper This is one of the worst movies of all time. It moved slowly, it didn't explain anything, and it didn't make sense. The dude was full of himself, and put other people in danger because of his stupidity. The movie trailers made it look so good, but sadly it wasn't. The only part that was remotely good was the parts with Griffin in it. Griffin was the only sensibl...

When "Aquamarine" came out I begged my parents to get it at Blockbusters. Buster started groaning, and said,"I don't want to watch "Aquamarine", it's a girly movie! And I'm a boy!" The girls dominate in our family, so we won. Well guess who was sitting in front of the T.V, with his mouth dropped open, watching the movie like it was the most interesting thing ever. Buster! After we finished the movie all of my sisters, and I were talking about how much we loved it. Buster jumped into the conversation and said,"That movie was the best movie like ever!" The next day when he came home from Boy Scouts, he told us he told the boys in his troop,"Guy's yesterday I watched "Aquamarine"! It was so totally awesome!" To my surprise the other boys agreed with him, and then they started talking about other chick flicks they liked to watch. Um.. Hello boys this is not Girl Scouts! You're supposed to be hiking, and camping...

I just wrote a really long post about my New Years eve. When I went through it I thought to myself," What in the world are you babbling on about?! Nobody has time to read about your whole evening! Face it you're not even interested." Okay, okay I'm going to give a short summary of my evening. Happy now?! Yesterday morning I went with my Dad to the grocery store, and Blockbusters. I strongly recommended "Stardust", and "Harry Potter". Well now you can guess what we got. I wanted to get "Stardust because my Mom bought me the book a couple months ago, but when they started doing "things" I decided not to read it anymore. Thankfully the movie wasn't like that at all. My whole family loved it! My Dad even recommend that we buy it so we can watch it over and over again (I liked the idea). Sorry I forgot I'm trying keeping this "short ". Anyway so Dad took us to get fireworks, and Mom said that we were crazy, because it...

Today is a day to celebrate! I finally found out when the next 'Chronicles of Narnia' movie is coming out. As some of you know it is one of my all time favorite series! I love all the books and the movie. The new movie looks amazing! I've decided to read the series again before it comes out (May 16). Eleven days after my birthday! I totally know what I want to do now. And today the 'Golden Compass' comes out in theaters. Almost all my favorite books are becoming movies now! It's all very exciting!
