Hummm....

I saw the trailer for The Desolation of Smaug...it was EPIC EPIC EPIC EPIC...but I have one note...

This man. Doesn't he look like William Turner from Pirates of the Caribbean?

I know, it's a horrible screenshot, but the video was going to fast, and any other time I paused it, he was making a stupid face because he was talking.

Well, Captain Jack Sparrow is there too...so...

Anyway, onto other things, it looks like we are going to see waaaaaaay more Elves. Which is awesome, because I really enjoyed the Elves in the LoTR movies. Their outfits are amazing!

Then, the colors are INCREDIBLE! The browns and the blues (did you see those butterflies?!) The greens are awesome...overwhelmingly awesome colors...

And of course, Thorin is there. So...will we have him smile at all? I noticed that about Sir Guy of Gisborne as well. Those characters DO NOT SMILE. Okay, so Guy smiles sometimes...but it's more of  a haha, I win, you are all going to die at the Sheriffs hand and yada yada. I am better than all of you.

It's actually more of a smirk than anything...a smirk. Not a smile. BUT that wasn't the point...

Then, there is the dragon. We didn't see much, but the animation looks pretty epic. The animation in all of this trailer looked epic. It was epic in the first Hobbit movie. The orcs never looked better...The hedgehog that Radagast saved was epic. And it just keeps getting better.

But I have seen Computer Generated dragons before. Once, actually.

John Hurt voiced the dragon on Merin. 

The animation on that show wasn't very great in the begining, but as the series progressed, it got better. So, I believe that the animation--in this movie rather than in a show-- is going to be epic.

Other things...There are a ton of new locations, and the camera angles are incredible.

I believe I have said enough.

Oh yay.

Hehe.

Okay, so I was thinking about doing something for a very very long time. And now I have done it, and I have found it. So...what I did was, I google-mapped "Mordor" and I actually got a result! It's in PA! Actually, I got about, 4 results...

Anyway, I have been watching stuff on the "youtube" and I found this: 

This was my favorite part of that whole movie. Corpse Bride is my favorite one of the Burton movies that are, what is it, "stop-motion" I believe. Now, I don't mean like Gumby and the like...Anyhow, I think this is a little better than The Nightmare Before Christmas. Don't get me wrong, I like that movie too. But this one is awesome. I think I may have even posted this video before...Well, it wouldn't hurt to post it again. I haven't seen Frankenweenie yet, but Corpse Bride is still up there on the list...If you listen, and you know who it is, it totally sounds like Johnny Depp--mostly because it is--Hehe--(!) The bride is um...Helena Bonham Carter. She is in a lot of movies--some Burton movies too--with Johnny Depp. I probably said that somewhere else too...Oh Well.

I google-mapped "Narnia" and got 4 pages of results...I think I will be here for a while.

Have a great week. Happy Monday! I should be back later with the spoils of Easter...

Bored. Honestly.

 It is almost 10pm. It's not unusual that I am not asleep by now. I guess I am like one of those masked night-creatures...Oh yeah, Raccoons. ☺



 Today I went to the library-gosh, I love that place--and I got two more books from Tamera Alexander. I had recently finished Beyond this Moment. Wonderful, extremely wonderful. I loved it. The Sheriff was my favorite character. Heh... Honestly I didn't think that I would find an author that I liked as much as I like Karen Witemeyer. But Tamera is GREAT! I love these books.

 On the topic of books, I was actually thinking about starting a book blog. Where I can post my thoughts about the books I read. Maybe that's a fall project..

  A few interesting things I found this week. The OVER music video, and the new trailer for Disney's new movie 'OZ'--which by the way, looks COMPLETELY amazing! The producers are the same from Alice in Wonderland. It has been made pretty clear that I LOVED that movie--I can't wait to see OZ.

  Here are Blake and Oz...

  I was watching the trailer, with a quizzical mind-set. (If that makes any sense.) I had seen that actor before. Turns out, after brain wracking and finally Googling it, I learned that the actor is James Franco   I only really know him from The Spider-Man movies as Harry Osbourn. Which, I think is cool because he could be Harry OZbourn..THE GREAT AND POWERFUL! That's me being..ADORKABLE. (Heard that term on Jeopardy! and I said, "That's me!" LOL.)  I am glad that they decided to go with another actor and not Johnny Depp. I have NO problem with Johhny, but I think it would seem too...Mad Hatter-y? It's good to give others a shot.

 The side of his face reminded me of Micheal Keaton though. But then again, everyone reminds me of Micheal Keaton. That and Jim-Bob Walton. Everyone remind me of both. Either really...Which reminds me, looking through things to watch on tv, I clicked by the SYFY channel and instantly yelled Micheal's name. It was him in the end. It's pretty easy to recognize him after watching Jack Frost every Christmas...The movie was called 'White Noise'--or something to that affect--I didn't stick around though, I wish I did. It looked...creepily cool.

  I didn't expect this to go on as long as it did. I have dug through yet another Naruto Manga...Awesome stuff. Kakashi gets cooler and cooler, and more strange, every time I see him. I though my favorite character was Sai...Hummm.....

 Goodnight to those in the BLOGOSHPERE!

 You'r now tired-of-typing, book reading, movie watching, anime reading,

The Daily Double--100th post!

 I just KNEW that my hours of screaming 'JOHNNY DEPP!!!' at the tv at the top of my lungs would pay off. I got an an answer right last night on Jeopardy! But it was an easy question. I seriously don't yell at the telly...I was just kicking this off with something silly. Hah.

   And now for the.....

Fairly Odd Parents? Yeah. SURE.

So, I hope that you're Fourth Of July week/weekend went well. Its so blasted hot here. Excuse my language, but if I said bloody, I would sound to much like a pirate. Today I am not a pirate. That was a yesterday thing.

Catch the Duets last night? On ABC? Apparently Kelly is blonde. Oh, Demi preformed this morning on Good Morning America and she is blonde too! And I wonder why I am not blonde as well. LOL. I think Kelly looks nice blonde...

100th!! POST! 

I found this yesterday and it was wonderful :')

I can't wait until Hunter tours on his own. Opening for Carrie Underwood is awesome though...

That's about it. I went to the library again and got a bunch of Beverly Lewis books. I am currently reading an Amish fiction called 'Paradise Valley' by Dale Cramer. It's good so far. Being around modern day Amish, the stories--even if they are fiction--that take place in 1922 are really neat.
