Fallen by Lauren Kate

A book, an amazing book, a great book, a book of such magnitude that when I started reading it I failed to put it down until the very last word; which was AWESOME!!!!! If you don't know about the book I'm very sorry to inform you of all the greatness and astounding pleasure you’re missing out on!!! It is a really intriguing book about a girl who has an unnatural pull towards a guy who she has never met before and who seems to hate her with every fibre of his being. And yet of course she is still drawn to him and then, enter bad boy type character that is falling for her (Lucinda Price). As the book continues we find out that they are...wait for it....ANGELS!!! And not just random angels but a good angel and a bad angel; which is probably the simplest way I could put it. And further more the book continues to tell us why Lucinda is drawn to Daniel (the one that hates her) and why Cam (the bad boy) wants to be with her!!! And it’s something not expected and so amazingly fresh and new that I almost grew wings myself and flew around the world twice just because I didn't know how to express my happiness.

The series has 4 books, Fallen, Torment, Passion and Rapture (the latter still to be released) and I don't know how they’re gona wrap up this story in the fourth book but I hope it has a totally fabulous ending. One that makes me happy and gives me room for some imagination, but not so much room that I can kill the characters in a sudden meteor shower or something random and crazy like that!!! I’ve immensely enjoyed all 3 books and I'm now impatiently waiting for the release of the 4^th one, but seeing as how we live in this wonderful place called South Africa, where everything we get is about 13 weeks behind, I'm not that hopeful. And I don’t say 13 as a random number that just floated into my head I say this as all the TV series that we get here in SA is usually exactly 13 episodes behind.

Well back to the book...there have been talk about a movie adaptation but nothing has been finalised, so I guess we’ll never get to see the AWESOMENESS of Daniel Grigori, Cam and Lucinda Price. But even though that might be the case I still want to express my opinion on who should play the role of Daniel...wait for it....Alex Pettyfer!!! Can’t you just see him surrounded by white luscious beautiful glowing wings??? At least that's how I see him in my head whenever I think of his gorgeousness. But anyways I'm getting ahead of myself!!! If your bored enough with your life you could always go check out the rand fake trailers uploaded on youtube!! I mean really people you obviously sat there for at least an hour so you could create a fake movie trailer...and I thought I was weird!!! I recommend this book whole heartedly and hope that if you do read it you get as much pleasure from the story as I have!!! WOW that sounded so formal!!! Let me bring down a notch..... Go read the book or die a sad evil death of boredom and ignorance. Wait that's to rude and demanding, let me change that once more.....Please go read the book guys, it’s like really nice and I mean who doesn't like nice things????.....that’s way too ‘nice’!!!! This whole ending the post thing isn’t working right now so I'm gona go old school...

The End

Animation Films

How happy are you that I'm not talking about random movie with some rather pretty guys in it!!! I know my obsession with gorgeousness is a little out of hand, but seeing as my blog is about animated films there probably won’t be all that much talk about hot guys and girls....I think?!

So let’s get to it!!! Who doesn’t just love a good animated film or episode of their favourite cartoon?? Crazy people, that's who!!! When you’re a child it’s all your about!!! Cartoons are like the awesomest thing in the history of the world but now that we’re older it’s become a secret (or not secret at all) pleasure. Now I don't care much for the Oscar nominated animations because that usually entails a deeper underlying message that is a moral and positive message to the people of the world!! I mean I watch it all, I just don't care that much for it, such as UP, Toy Story 2 &3. I'm more into the random pointless animations like Surfs Up, The Incredibles and Bolt (which should be called Rhino because he is far more AWESOME in the film than bolt will ever be!!!!) and then you get the awesomeness of Happy Feet 1, not 2 because 2 sucked ass!!! You can’t have a sequel to an animated film and have a different voice for one of the main characters!! Pinks voice is great and I love her but she is not Britney Murphy and the film just didn't have the right flow!! And let me just say something about Happy Feet: it’s probably my favourite animated film in the world but why does it get so weird at the end?? Like the whole over fishing issue comes up and how humans are basically ruining the world!!! So heavy for a kids movie!!  Not counting out any of the Classic Disney movies that has been awesome over the years like the original Lion king, Cinderella (although for the life of me I don't understand why they made a second and third Cinderella movie?!), Anastasia, and a bijillion others which could have me typing for the rest of the day!!!

Anyways, have you ever noticed how the small characters in animated films are always better and more entertaining than the actual main character??? Take Bolt for example; Rhino is a random minor character in the film yet I love him much more!! Or even The Incredibles where the little boy on the tricycle who rides pass the house is so cute and funny or even the youngest boy of the family who is HILARIOUS or Tangled where the horse is awesomer than Rapunzel herself and even the little chameleon is beyond funny.

Well that only leaves one thing left that has to be said: ANIMATED FILMS ARE BOSS!!! And no matter how old you are when you see a flying carpet (because they’re so frequently seen) the first song that comes to mind is.......???

(PS: in case you didn't guess the right answer its A Whole New World from Aladdin)

Hunger Games

Ok so the following post is all about the book and soon to be film named Hunger games!!! Its a really awesome book and I'm simple going the cut and paste a section from my diary for you to read. I was bored one day and started a diary during my first year of varsity and then I wrote about the AWESOME book I'm reading and due to lack of energy I'm just gone paste that days entry onto my blog!! "Please keep all hands and feet inside the ride at all times, as this is going to be a rolercoaster ride, people" (GOSH that was like beyond cheesy!!)

Right now I'm busy reading ‘Catching Fire’ by Suzanne Collins. It is the second book in the trilogy that is The Hunger Games. This is just so by the way my new favouritest book!!! There are three books, namely Hunger Games, Catching Fire and Mockingjay. The movie is coming out in like March, so I'm impatiently waiting for that ness to come out!!! Let me just tell you about the book, just in case in the future; when people are presumably buying my ‘dairy of a rambling crazy girl’ like hotcakes and; this book has become old and no one has read it in like a bijillion years!!! It’s actually a very sad story; it’s about this girl who lives in one of the 12 districts of a new dictatorship-like government called the Capitol. She is a poor girl who sneaks into the woods to hunt for food for her family, a mother and younger sister. Every year there is a Hunger Games where the Capitol selects a boy and girl from each district to fight against and kill each other until only one remains. Now I'm not gona bore you with like details of everyone’s names and stuff but what essentially happens is that the girls sister gets chosen and she is like only 12 so she, Katniss, volunteers in her sisters place and then she is off to the games!!!  So the rest of the book is about how she survives and fights off the 23 other contestants in the games. She obviously wins, because there is 2 other books after the first one, so that was kind of a duh. But like the relationships she makes and stuff is what makes her journey to victory so interesting. This is where the sad part comes in cause she is basically a 18 year old girl (I think) who has to kill to survive. I'm only on the second book and I'm completely in love with the story. But let me stop talking about this AWESOME book!!! And go to the movie adaptation: Jennifer Lawrence, the girl from True Grit plays the lead role and then there’s the fact that two beyond HOT dudes are in the film (that doesn't hurt the, ‘must watch’ factor) Josh Huctherson (Journey to the Centre of the Earth dude) and Liam Hemsworth (Last Song dude). Ok so now I'm officially done talking about the movie and book.

The Avengers

Lets take a minute or 10 to discuss the AWESOMENESS that is the Avengers!!!!! How excited are you for this movie to come out??? Its been coming since the first Iron Man movie when we heard about S.H.I.E.L.D and then in the Incredible hulk when there is an end of credits scence with Tony Stark and some other guy!!! And that was when my brain started trying to figure out what was going on. Why the hell was Iron man in a scence of the Incredible Hulk??? Then things got even cooler when in Iron Man 2 S.H.I.E.L.D was like a main character and once again an end of credits scene revealed the discovery of Thor's hammer!!!! Thor came out after that and then Captain America and now...now we wait for the 4th of May!!! For the movie of the year to be released for all my dreams to come true and for my eyes to see so much GORGEOUSNESS that it might just explode out of my head!!!

Oh yes, there is a whole mess of HOT guys in this film, from Chris Hemsworth (Thor) to Chris Evans (Captain America) and even Mark Ruffalo (Hulk) and Robert Downey Jr. (Iron Man) is beyond Beautiful!! And also the new comer Hawkeye played by  Jeremy Renner is 'totally salty' (Jennifer's Body reference, nice). And  of course not forgetting the Bootyliciousness of miss Scarlett Johansson, I mean any women who can pull off a tight black leather suit is like a Super S-T-A-R to me!!! (look at Kate Beckinsale) And it doesnt hurt to look at her curvaceous body in that skin tight suit. Oh ja, did I forget to mention that I'm an Actress and Actor Whore!!! Well just so by the way I judge movies on the cast members looks aswell as the actuall awesomeness of the movie!!! And I mean most of the time people watch movie because of who is in them or at least I do (most of the time)!!! 

  

But anyways I haven't really done much research into the film because I tend to go overboard when doing that and reading the whole plot of films and then I regret it at the end when I'm watching the movie knowing exactly what is going to happen and why and what the director said about it!!! So i leave you with my CRAZY anticipation for this 'Coming Soon' film and a word of advise i got from another super hero move: "The impossible is possible...if-you-are-AWESOME!!!!!" (Rhino, from Bolt)
