First off you should know I have not read the graphic novel...

Second you should know it 3:30am...

So I thought it was weird...

There were a lot of things I really liked and some things I thought were never really fleshed out...

Rorschach was my favorite character... I love characters that are true and pure, and he stayed true to himself throughout the movie...

The fight scenes were kick ass...

I thought that Ozymandias was the least fleshed out of all the characters and that was a bummer...

I HATED that a lot of the plot was summed up in dialog... I like to see the action unfold, not be told what is going on...

Anyway, Like I said it's late/early so apologies for being so vauge, but I said I'd blog after the movie, plus I don't want to spoil it for anyone...

Can't wait to hear what you all think about it.

Good Night!

Hey, Hi, Remeber Me? That girl that got a new job and then disappeared

I barely have time to watch TV much less blog about it, but I had two days off in a row, which is a weird schedule for me, so I took advantage with a movie fest, a date with a cute boy and too many Jager Bombs!!!

I have tix to the midnight showing of Watchman on Thursday too, so you all just might hear from me twice in one week... Everyone take your heart meds now!!

OK, on to the movies... No real spoilers here, just my thoughts on what was good and/or bad about them...

The Wrestler: I REALLY liked this... Mickey Rourke was great, Marissa Tomei was, well, hot is the word that comes to mind... I am usually hesitant about gritty/dark character dramas beacuse I hate to see characters have an attack of conscience and try to be someone they are not... This was not that movie... I also hate it when movies are wrapped up all pretty with a bow at the end... This was not that movie either... The relationships were real and the motivations were true for all the characters and that was a great thing to see... If you like character driven drama then do not miss this one!

Slumdog Millionaire: I'm torn on this one... I enjoyed it... I worship Danny Boyle... but I wasn't surprised by it... It didn't take me anywhere I didn't expect to go... The movie was told in an interesting way and the backdrops of India were stunning... I really liked Dev Patel, his acting was honest and real... But the truth is this movie is not for everyone...

Friday The 13th: OMG, I totally liked this re-make okay, let's just get that out of the way, Even though Jared Padalecki did not take his shirt off Moving on... I am not a huge fan of Michael Bay, I think he gets full of himself sometimes (perfect example is Armageddon, which I HATED)... But I digress, this one stayed true to the roots of the slasher film, had dirty tent sex that led to killings, had the kids going into the abandoned cabin that led to killings, had some great humor, Jason's killing techniques were impressive... All in all I did not feel like I had wasted $10 at the theaters...

Hope all is well with everyone... Working at a retail store is killing me, we are so busy all the time, the economy is not hurting cell phone sales that's for sure! but it's good to be working and getting bills paid off

I have missed all your snarky, witty, informative, combative, silly, blogs, but mostly I miss Greta's cookies so I'm going to try and make some more time to spend here!!

So a big Happy Birthday to me... and to Elvis and David Bowie as well!

As a lovely birthday gift from work I found out I am the number two sales person at work (AT&T Mobility Sales) so that's what I will be celbrating when I finally get a day off on Sunday!!
