The Golden Globes

The time has come everyone for my favorite time of year the start of red carpet season. Well on sunday the Golden Gloes took over y hometown as the commencement of the parade of the rich and famous to exploit thier general amzing-ness. Even my homegirl from overseas flew in for the festivities. Adele who by the way kicked ass by beating everyone for her original song for a motion picture "Skyfall". Everyone knew she was going to win, there really was no competition. Not even the American sweetheart Tayor Swift who was pissed and surprised she didn't win but honestly if you lose to Adele you should not be surprised or pissed only admire her and her greatness. You have lost to one of the best voices on this earth, no one can win her! Anyway this night was all about tv and films. The awards went out to two of my favorites: Jennifer Laurence for best supporting actress in a drama and Anne Hathaway for best supporting actress in a musical. Honestly there was no competition! Both had two equally amazing pictures. Anne had The Dark Knight Rises, and Les Miserables. Jennifer had The Silver Linings Playbook and The Hunger Games! I am very proud to say i saw three of those films in theatre, there really was no one who could beat out these two extraordinarily talented actress who are humble and elegant no matter where they go! I love them both! Also Jodie Foster blew my mind, she rarely ever says anything and when she did boy oh boy I was not prepared for that. You go Foster!
However we all know I am nice when discussing work but this, this a matter of FASHION.
Now let me tell you, let me give you the skinny on who wore what and who were the biggest surprises and who sucked ass!

I shall start as usual with the best dressed!

Jennifer Lopez

Wow! This woman must bathe in baby blood or something, she is so stunning, every year she gets better looking, to think this woman has been in the spotlight for almost two decades. Now this Zuhair Marad (i'm sure i'm spelling this wrong but too lazy to look) is gorgeous on her, it looks like gorgeous decals painted onto her skin and you can;t tell where the dress begins or ends. I love this dress, the tayloring of the is PERFECTION you can't tell the difference between her skin and the dress!

Taylor Swift

Ok so I think Taylor Swift is so freaking annoying with her teenage candy bubblegum attitude and look that i can't freaking take it. However I am liking this risk taking fashion forward dark Taylor, she is literally grown, who knew she had this gorgeous body. I mean her hips are wider forming her hourglass figure, her boobs are  bigger and her hair is slicked back and her makeup is natural. I love this look on her, its such a simple dress but what it reveals is nothing compared to what it hides. the little snippet of side boob held by such thin straps is very seductive and not like the Taylor Swift America has come to love. I love this dark color and i know that this dress would have looked equally gorgeous on ceartin other girls but the fact that she could wear this and pull it off is a thumbs up. She is doing what Miley Cyrus, Selena Gomez and countless others couldn't do, that is grow up in style with age maturity in check. 

Michelle Dockery

I can honestly say I have no judgement upon this girl, for i have no idea who she is or what she was nominated for. But I can say I am in love with this dress, I love the Gold thing going up on the top and the white flowing down is just gorgeous when I saw this on the Red Carpet I loved it and had to look who she was online! My quips about  this dress are i wish it had a slit because i feel like she is turning into gold and her hair would have been better slicked into a bun.

And now ladies and gentlemen the worst of the worst, la creme de la stinky creme.  And there were a lot this year Eva Longoria, Tina Fey, Naomi Watts, Amanda Seyfried and a couple more but this bitches listed down here are so bad, so bad because they used to be best dressed nominees, people who usually havestyle and yet they belittle themselves in bad flower prints and just ughh gross crap!

Halle Berry 

Halle! Halle! This dress is so unforgivable, its so bad the early 2000's rejected it so why would you wear this? The problems with this dress are the squished in left boob, the absence of material on the left side, where they forgot to sew the dress together! The leg oh God the leg, it is just to much of an Angelina thing to do! Its just too much going on and then the huge hoops and ... God this was just to gross for words, we all know she can and will do better! Redeem yourself! 

Lucy Liu

Omg I named her a best nominee not to long ago with her beautiful metallic dress and she repays me with a Julianna Margolis disaster! Hollywood please listen to me! Flower prints are so gross on evening gowns. There is nothing beautiful about it! This looks like my grandmothers drapes made into a corset ballgown! I hate this so much! Lucy can't wear this dress she is too kick ass and not even zooey the queen of crazy cute can wear this and make it cute! In part the dress is to blame for the hideous and the other half is hers for not knowing how to style this correctly. fucking wrong!

Sienna Miller

Is this gross or is this gross? honestly I feel bad for Sienna Miller she wore a two piece and she could't rock it, in fact Anne Hathaway wore the same kind of ensemble but it was less gross, why? Because there was no flower print involved and furthermore this didn't flow with her body. It was just not the business! But I cannot   bag on a new mother. 

With that said congrats to the winners and see you all back in two weeks time, the SAGS!=]

Omg I haven't cried so much in a movie since I watched Bridge to Teribithia. The movie was fantastic! I went to watch it tonight with Salinger after waiting and anticipating it for months.We were not disappointed we'll at least I wasn't. In fact I was kind of expecting it to be sadder than it actually was. I think it wasn't as sad because it had these glorious funny moments courtesy if the innkeeper and his wife, who took care of Cosette. now the real star of the show is Anne Hathaway' s portrayal of Fantine. Those scenes were the most heartbreaking, honest rendition of true loneliness in the face of despair. Ugh it's just so sad. The scale of this movie is also vastly impressive. The sets are fantastic and huge the backdropbackdrop of course is the French Revolution so no doubt there are long war scenes and the extras numerous, but Todd Hopper manages to make it all cohesive and worth the 2:40 of screen time. I swear this movie should have been split. people will come. but in the end it didn't disappoint. I predict that at the very least Anne Hathaway will get an Oscar nomination. The one thing I can honestly say that bugged me about it was the singing.Now don't get me wrong not all of it was bad but there weremwere moments were I wish they would just shut it and talk naturally but it rarely ever happened. If you do not like musicals watch it on mute and with subtitles. the faces and emotions are just so worth it. how can u not cry when you see Fantine in her first night as a prostitute. I had a dream should also win the Oscar for best song of the year! Oh and Isable Allen should get best supporting nod to because she made me cry as Ebony. the love interest of Markus. Honestly she has such a voice and her actions brought me to tears. Watch and u will know all I have said is truth.

my 2012 thank yous

So it's that time of year again to say thank you to my angels:)

2012 has so far been one of th  better years my family and I have gone thru some

You know that when we walk with the Lord everything put in front of us is just another obstacle we can easily surpass with the help of willpower family and friends. To 2013 May it be better than the last.

Ok I have been anticipating this movie since last year around this time. I saw it on Friday and you know what. It wasn't what I expected, hence the title I'm sure. The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey. Yeah, unexpected for sure. I was anticipating yes some cut off characters but this? this was add-ons, plots and storylines that Peter Jackson said he got from the footnotes of Tolkein himself and the truth is that Jackson has sold his soul to the Hollywood demon. I feel like when Peter Jackson lost the weight he dropped his dignity as well. What ever happened to the man that made LOTR??? Is this his way of converting to Hollywood conformities and conventions? Not all the movie was bad or unexpected I recognized some of the story plots from the book and I was ok with some of the added story lines, because I felt they were nice background to the already told story that is LOTR and the background just affirms what you already know. I didn't however like the aggrandizement of the main character who should be Bilbo but ends up being Thorin Oakenshield. I have further problems with his look, in my head he is a bit older and has a  salt and pepper beard. The problem really is the added sub-plot of the orc Azog the defiler. He really irks me he fucking sucks and ruins it for me. I know, I know there has to be some Hollywood in it, but an albino orc that kills and maims and is the living remainder for one demented Dwarf prince and has stuck an iron claw into his shoulder, bitch please. I'm slightly appeased but would have prefered the movie without the Azog character only because, he is unnecessary  the battle scene in the third movie alone "The battle of the five armies" is going to be sufficient! I will say this to the movies credit, Gollum is fucking awesome in this movie! He is the perfect blend of creepy and cute and then damn near schizophrenic scary and murderous. He is a villain you love. Then there's Martin Freeman's portryal of Bilbo, also genius. Lee Pace as King Thranduil is also pretty awesome, he is sooo mezmerizing in the 5-10 minutes of screen time. Absolutely love it. I will wait for the second one, only because I know it will be epic. However if you are a fan, let me warn you, you will be pissed at Peter Jackson's stupidity.. 

Midnight Banter

I'm listening to the rain fall outside my window and my fingers are itching to type on my now running laptop. So i decide to look back at my almost five years on Blogger. I was fucking stupid. Half of 2008 is misspelled and the other is so high school I want to kick myself in the crotch  Truth there are some insightful moments in those blogs, but the truth one gets better with age. you get wiser, you get smarter and you learn to hide identities. Furthermore I have also seen my progress, so i'm not that whiny anymore, I've grown. Sometimes it takes a little disheveling to grow up and I'm sad thats what it took

So in retrospect I want to see what I've learned this year. I've learned to let love in again and to not be so afraid of my imminent demise. Whatever happens happens and you have to trust that everything is going to be ok. I sometimes get to tense about certain situations and i'm starting to believe I have some control issues but i think that as an adult i can honestly say i need to chill the fuck out. I need to trust myself more, as well as push myself more. I keep making the same mistakes over and over again and I need a change. Sometimes i'm disgusted with myself and sometimes I'm proud of myself. Truth is, like everyone else, I have good days and bad days. 

Also I need to stop the relationship that might be growing between me and a certain engaged gentleman. No i don't have bad grammar but I use Me first, because me is the only one I can control. I need to stop looking for guys ( or at least stop being drawn to them) who have no interest in me. I need to quit it before one of them starts to date one of my friends. I need to look for a guy who likes me. Who says hey thats the kind of girl i usually date. Not she's something so different, so new, so not like what i see. That ends up bad and I'm labeled under friends and wondering what the fuck i did wrong. 

I need to stop posting movie reviews in an effort to make myself look and feel purposeful. I want to be somebody and i want to get things done, so i need to remove my mental blocking. 

Lastly I need to keep my friendships strong, I love them all dearly and I know what its like to lose a friend to words and miss-communications and whats its like to lose to death. And i don't want to lose my friends to any of the reasons. 

Mostly i need to remember, no matter what, Care for thyself, Trust Thyself and Love thyself 

The Hunger Games

The Hunger Games :

An intense mesmerizing novel about the sacrifice of one girl to save her sister.The story is set in the grim futuristic world and now America is called Panem. Katniss Everdeen is the hero and she hails from one of Panem's Districts, District 12. The premise of the story is realy gruesome. In retaliation for thier uprising in the past every District has to provide one male and female under the age of 18 and over the age of 12. They are taken to the Capital and thrown into something they call "The Hunger Games" a death arena where all 24 tributes are pitted against each other and forced to kill. The heroine is not chosen she has in fact taken her sister Prim's place, having volunterred for her makes her an instant hero in a district where no one has ever done that before. Peeta is her male counterpart. Together under the drunken eye of Haymitch they begin to train for the battle ahead. Peeta is in love with Katniss and that is his spiel as they set off to fight the rest of the pack. Now I don't want to divulge to much. But its hard not to soo spoilers ahead. She teams up with Rue the girl from District 11, who teaches her the usage of the Mockingjay, the pin that Katniss wears given to her by Madge the Governor from District 12's daughter. They team up to kill the others and worry about thier impending doom later. However Rue is killed and Katniss inner sanity is broken she stays with Rue until her eyes close and she lays her in flowers and sings her a song. When she leaves Rue she kisses her fingers formed in a three and holds them up to her in an act of respect for her. Unbeknown to her this is the start of a rebellion in District 11. After this incident she is alone and hunted. There she reunites with Peeta who has suffered a wound and is dying. They band together and carry on how much the love for each other spiel. They play the star-struck lovers very well and they make it to the end. The Gamers have said that thier can be two winners if they are from the same District. When they find themselves at the end the Gamers change the rule back to one winner, so Katniss and Peeta decide to eat poisinous berries and the Gamers say they shall be winners. The two become victorious but they have started the ball rolling on something they can not even begin to imagine.

2013 movie preview

So, my favorite part of going to the movie theatres is actually the previews, there is never a part of me that says hurry up, get to the movie already. In the previews I usually just get more excited. That being said, and the last posts being read, you all know that I've spent time in a theatre and I have to say I am so excited for some of the movies coming out. There are a couple that i'm waiting for like The Hunger Games 2: Catching Fire, Frozen, Percy Jackson 2, Despicable Me 2 ( I realize that after listing 4 teen/childrens movies, I must seem like a teenager but I swear I'm 22, on second hand i realize that makes me look worse but i have a weakness for series and animated films. Pixar anyone?) The Hobbit 2, World War Z and a couple of others but I think I shall take it in stride and inform all of you of what I shall watch this coming year.

 

 

Warm Bodies

 

This movie had the cutest/creepiest teaser trailer. I fell in love with the story and I'm anticipating this. The idea of a love struck zombie, genius. Zombies are the new hottest thing in Hollyhood, (world war z, the walking dead and cult classics shaun of the dead and 28 days later) which is slightly disturbing to know that we have love for things that will definitely eat our brains. 

 

 

Finally Sandy B is back and shes in a comedy!!! love it! Melissa McCarthy I'm unsure about because i havent seen her in anything but when I saw this trailer loved everything about it. I love Sandy B and think she is always getting snubbed by the critics when they shouldn't, who didn't love the proposal? Her role of ocd, stick to the rules, fbi agent is right up her alley and the messiness that McCarthy will bring to it will no doubt make it hilarious, the female middle age 21 jumpstreet???

 



 

Been looking fwd to this since august. Movie 43 is a whole bunch of raunchy comedyshorts and I'm not sure if it's intertwined but let me tell you. I was watching the trailer and I couln't handle it I laughed so hard and I thought to meself, must watch this, start the year off with a hardy-har-har! The cast for this movie is pretty extensive so chances are one or two of your fave actors/actress are also in the movie. This is going to be scary movie, american pie, every funny movie ever made rolled into and deliverd on a bra.
