Jane Eyre

Admittedly, i should have written this ages ago when the movie was fresh in my mind. But I was so disappointed at the time that I didn't feel like writing anything about it. I think I might give it another chance in a couple months though.
So the new movie... Jane wasn't plain enough for me. I felt the red room wasn't played out right. The whole thing with StJohn stank, like alot. Most importantly I didn't feel for mr Rochester. I have this new quest to find a good Jane Eyre addition. When I find this great addition I will work on posting it right away. I hope its not a lost cause like Persuasion. I have seen every Persuasion out there and they all suck


This week will be a post on the last Harry Potter

Gnomeo and Juliet


Basic run down of the movie is probably an easy guess. Its Romeo and Juliet, made funny, featured by garden gnomes. So the Gnomes are the garden statues of neighboring gardens of Montague and Capulet. For unknown reasons the Gnome's have been war ing for all time. Easy plot right?
Anyways I wasn't thrilled and often found myself bored. I will fully admit that part of this probably comes from the fact that I really really dislike the story of Romeo and Juliet. First there is all the hype and 15 year old girls gush over it, without really understanding the plot. Yes prejudice is wrong, don't fight for no reason and don't blindly hate people. But NO people this is not a romantic story, it's about horny teens. People never remember that the whole reason Romeo was at the party where he met Juliet was because his friends took him to get over is greatest love.. you know whats her name that no one remembers because they don't pay attention (her name is Rosaline). It bugs me.
Back to our Gnomes.. It had some funny parts but It probably would have made a better short then actual movie. So watch the trailer, have a laugh and then go watch a good movie.

MIA

So Oops! Apparently I missed the entire month of May.. and half of June. I can't really give a good excuse. I have been crazy busy with the new job. Plus my blog has been a bit of a let down, I just don't have that writing skill I once had. Plus for those of you that know me, I'm much better in person.
Anyways, Beastly, Jane Eyre and Gnomeo and Juliet coming soon to a blog near... um.. here
