The Hobbit movie!!! :)

THE HOBBIT!!!

Release Date: December 14, 2012

Are you guys as excited as I am for The Hobbit movie? Well, Part 1 anyway. What do you thinks about The Hobbit being 3 movies instead of just 1? I'm a little wary about them drawing it out for 3 movies. I mean, I would rather watch a 3 hour long movie that's FANTASTIC than watch a short movie that's just being drug out. But I'm still excited to see it! :-) And now onto the cast. Most of the names (okay all of the names) I don't know who they are except for Hugo Weaving and Elijah Wood but it'll be super nice to get some fresh faces up on the screen don't you think? :-)

I'm super PUMPED for this movie to come out! 

Also, you need to check out this website for more info:

 http://the-hobbit-movie.com/

And watch the movie trailer:

I took the name generator on that website above and I was:

Your Hobbit Name is Primula Grubb. Grubb, hobbits of the Shire. The name is related to the verb 'grub', meaning to dig or root around. 

You share your Christian name Primula, with a Primula (Brandybuck) Baggins: (2920–2980) was a daughter of Gorbadoc Brandybuck, Master of Buckland, and Mirabella Took, the youngest daughter of the Old Took. She married Drogo Baggins, and had one child, Frodo. In 2980, both she and Drogo drowned in the Baranduin, leaving Frodo orphaned.

I'm not sure whether I should be happy I was named after the mother of the saviour of MiddleEarth, or if I should disappointed that they say I was named after someone who drowned.

Have a good one! :)

My Review:

O-M-G. Anyone want to know the best animated movie to hit theaters since Tangled? Are you sure?

HOTEL TRANSYLVANIA!!!

This movie was hilarious! It even made my dad guffaw over 5 times. (if anyone knows my dad you know how often he laughs. a guffaw is like once a year for him and he did it 5 times in an hour and a half!)
Yes, I'm sorry mom but Hotel Transylvania was better than Megamind. :-) And it was a great movie for the whole family!!! From little kids, to teens, to parents, to grandparents, Hotel Transylvania is an excellent movie to go see! Starring: Adam Sandler, Selena Gomez, Kevin James, Andy Samberg, and more! :-) Do not miss this totally awesometastic movie!!! It's was AWESOME!

MIRROR MIRROR MOVIE

Official Movie Rating: PG
My Rating: @@@@@
Official Release Date: March 16, 2012 (?)

Oh My GOSH! This movie was so super good! It made me love the fairy tale story of Snow White. (a fairy tale story I have previously hated!) All the actors and actresses did their parts really well, but the actress that was probably the best was Julia Roberts, the evil queen/wicked stepmother. Even though you're supposed to hate her it was impossible. :P The dwarves were funny although Half Pint (?) was kind of creepy (in a funny way, of course). This is a movie that was wonderful for the whole family. No swearing, no inappropriate scenes, nothing. Just good clean use of time and movie film. BUT hurry and catch it quick because it's soon to leave the theaters and then you'll have to wait for it to come out on DVD! Which can take months..... :O

The Avengers!

Movie notice of this week? The Avengers! Coolio! My whole family has been waiting months for this movie to come out! But because we didn't buy tickets it'll probably be sold out. :( So we won't be able to go see it until a week later. It comes out May 4th. And looks totally awesome! Are you going to see it?

Movie Rating: PG-13
Release Date: May 4, 2012

Movie Monday!!!

Friday's movie release. (that I hopefully will be going to see...:) Friday, February 10th, the new movie coming out into theaters is.....(drum roll, please).....Journey 2.....(confetti is now falling from the sky)! YAY! I thought the movie trailer was super funny and Journey 2 is directed by the same people who directed Journey to the Center of the Earth and I loved that movie! :) Louis Guzman, Dwayne Johnson, Josh Hutcherson, and Vannessa Hudgens are the main actors in Journey 2. Check out the awesome movie trailer on youtube or IMDb and comment below to tell me that you are going. I just want to know that I'm not the only one looking forward to this movie (and us blogger <3 comments)! :D

As you know I am the BIGGEST Hunger Games fan. (just ask my poor mom as she deals with a very ecstatic teenager blabbing on and on and on alllllll day about the hunger games. luckily, she still has some hair) And well I learned that there is a BRAND NEW movie trailer out for it. So I thought I'd post it here just for you guys. (and for me so I can watch it over and over and over) :D And then I thought I'd post one of the songs for it on here too. Safe & Sound by Taylor Swift. March 23,2012! Only 48 days 4 hours and 8 minutes! :D

(this is the movie trailer)

(this is the song)

ENJOY! :D

The Hunger Games book review!

I know most of you have heard of The Hunger Games. Some less than others (my mom is one of those poor people that hear about it everyday from yours truly. poor lady) but here is my review for it:

THE HUNGER GAMES (the hunger games trilogy book 1) by SUZANNE COLLINS

Movie Rating: PG-13 for some kissing and violence and gore
Book Rating: @@@@@
Swearing: Maybe 2 instances of the h-word
Genre: Dystopian
Published By: Scholastic Press

Back Blurb:          In the ruins of a place once known as North America lies the nation of Panem, a shining Capitol surrounded by 12 outlying districts. The Capitol is harsh and cruel and keeps the districts in line by forcing them all to send one boy and one girl between the ages of 12-18 to participate in the annual Hunger
Games, a fight to the death on live TV.
         Sixteen-year-old Katniss Everdeen, who lives alone with her mother and younger sister, regards it as a death sentence when she steps forward to take her sister's place in the Games. But Katniss has been close the dead before--and survival, for her, is second nature. Without really meaning to, she becomes a contender. But if she is to win, she will have to start making choices that weigh survival against humanity and life against love.

Winning means fame and fortune.
Losing means certain death.
The Hunger Games have begun....

My Review:
        The Hunger Games is one of the best teen trilogies I have ever read. A trilogy with very little swearing and no 'inappropriate scenes'! *gasps in shock* After reading The Hunger Games, author Suzanne Collins made it to my top 10 favorite authors list. Set in a future day North America the Capitol forces young kids to fight in a gruesome and horrible display of bloodshed and shows just what will happen if the government gets to much control  over the people. Most people read this and think, "What a gruesome book!", but if your family was starving (if you win you get a life-time supply of food), and bullies were trying to kill you just for the fun of it, would you not fight? To save my family's lives and my life I would kill just as fast as the other contestants. Some are more timid that others, but most are more blood-thirsty and only look at the Games as a chance to up their popularity back home. Would you survive?

TMB and MAY THE ODDS BE EVER IN YOUR FAVOR!

Check out the movie trailer! (movie coming March 23, 2012)

Movie Monday! 8D

Introducing the new and spectacular....................MOVIE MONDAY!!!!
        What is movie Monday? Basically, Movie Monday is where I blog about a movie (and it's cast) that was based on a book I have read and you guys comment and tell me what you thought of the book, the movie/movie trailer (if it's out), the actors/actresses, etc., etc. **WARNING** Due to the fact that I am a movie fanatic (poor mom and dad) some of the movies are not out in theaters. But never fear! I check IMDb regularly so I'll post the approx. theater release date if I can find it. Understand? And, as always, THANKS for stopping by!

First, Movie Monday post:

The Hunger Games MOVIE!!!
Okay, so just to let you guys know I am a Hunger Games fanatic! (review coming later) Well, a little birdy told me that there's going to be movie coming out on March 23, 2012, based on, yep you guessed it, THE HUNGER GAMES! (actually it wasn't a little birdy it was really my fabulous friends on Good reads and, of course, IMDb) But, nevertheless, there is a Hunger Games movie coming out and guess who's going to go see it: moi. (if I repeatedly ask Mom and Dad to take me...) Anyway, if you keep reading to the end of this post you'll see the movie trailer for it. (I figured out how to do that all by myself) I think it's AWESOME, but don't take my word for it, judge for yourself and then comment to tell me what you thought of it! Now on to the cast: Katniss Everdeen is played by Jennifer Lawrence; Gale Hawthorn by Liam Hemsworth; Peeta Mellark by Josh Hutcherson; Haymitch Abernathy by Woody Harrelson; President Snow by Donald Sutherland. I personally don't know why all the girls swoon at the sight of Liam. He has the profile of a dragon and his face sags... I think they should have switched the actors playing  Gale and Peeta. :) This is going to be my first time watching Jennifer Lawrence act so I don't really have anything to say about her. Robert Downey Jr. would have been a spectacular Haymitch mainly because he's already got that crabby, sarcastic old man down pat but I'm interested in seeing how Woody Harrelson plays him. And Donald Sutherland (a.k.a President Snow) is a creepy old man! I'm not complaining because any movie based on The Hunger Games book is bound to be just down right SpEcTaCuLaR!(as long as Hollywood doesn't ruin if...) Right, guys?
What do you think?
