The Hobbit Continues
I saw the final Hobbit installment last night, and though I was never bored, it left much to be desired.
*SPOILERS*

Thor 2: The Dark World
I'm a bit out of practice, but I saw the latest Thor movie last weekend, so I thought I'd give a shot at a review.

Stuck in the Past
It was fun watching Merlin's character grow last year, but the writers toyed a lot with character relationships for the sake of the plot. This year, the show is entirely too plot-centered. The characters are still dealing with the same issues and reacting the same way they always have. The knights are still playfully insulting one another, Merlin's ( Read more... ) -
Tried Or True Television
THE UNDEADONCE UPON A TIME. I know I said "no amount of temptation will pull me back again." I guess I don't know my own strength. I saw a promo shot of Emma holding a sword, surrounded by purple clouds, and of all things, the promo poster drew me back in. Those guys should get a raise. I wouldn't have bothered to waste hours catching up, and I ( Read more... ) -
Talkies
I'M NOT SCHITZO, I JUST HAVE A FLAIR FOR THE DRAMATICI'm one of those weird people who likes to talk to themselves. I make up stories in my bedroom and spout one-sided arguments in my car. Thankfully, we live in an age of cell phones and stereos, which makes it less obvious I’m a crazy person. What’s more, I love trying out accents. I would be ( Read more... ) -
For the Love of Grace
MADE-FOR-TV
I discovered this (what I assume is a) made-for-TV movie on Hulu and I was pleasantly surprised. For the Love of Grace screams "stereotypical boy-meets-girl story" from the get-go. The opening credits have shots of the two leads smiling brightly at one another, for crying out loud, which led me to expect emotional anvils to drop around ( Read more... ) -
The Bat
Eeeee! I went and saw The Dark Knight Rises yesterday! I went in with modest hopes, even though it's gotten good reviews from official critics and my friends alike. At first, I enjoyed the unfolding. Then I was locked on to the intensity. And by the end, I was beaming so brightly I could barely keep my seat. I literally sat in my car afterwards and ( Read more... ) -
Snow, Hot Guys, and Magic
I saw Snow White and the Huntsman late last month. I had read a review ahead of time that bemoaned Kristen Stewart's performance, which was less than shocking to me, but for the majority of the movie I was surprised that she wasn't that bad. I think the reviewer was exaggerating a bit, but unfortunately nothing could save Ms. Stewart from that ( Read more... ) -
Fangirlie Wildfire
I managed to find a way to watch the final two episodes of season 2 Game of Thrones without downloading it. Woot! Like the books, the last episode finished and I thought, "Is that it?" There is so much more story to tell and I'm stuck waiting for it. *sigh* Thankfully, there were some great moments that were fun to see come to life.

Checkout Aisle Movie Review
I've been doing a library movie marathon over the past couple of weeks. I mentioned it to one of my friends and he was like, "Library? Oh, yeah, you can do that." Unfortunately, the library copies can be disappointing. I tried to re-watch the Pixar film Up and the disk was damaged to the point of no return. The same thing happened with Wall-E a ( Read more... )
