A created thing is never invented and it is never true: it is always and ever itself. - Federico Fellini

Twilight
Twilight. I'm sure everybody has been affected by this book in one way or another. Whether or not you have a sibling whom has been infected by this craze, or you yourself have succumb to the temptation, It's ok, I understand.
I read the first book and I am on the second book.
While I do not think that Stephanie Meyer is a good author, I do think that she has created a very interesting world that keeps the reader desiring to revisit every chance they get.
With that said, If you plan on reading this book, I beg you to not see the film.
I just got out of the theater not that long ago and it is certainly atrocious. It is not accurate to the book at all and in fact, makes the book seem like a literary masterpiece when you compare the two.
It isn't very accurate to the book and threw away what I felt were some of the best parts of the book.
SO in other words, I am a loser. I investigated the Twilight craze and I became a TWILIGHTER if you will, I wish you won't.
While you make fun of me, it will catch up to you one day. Oh yes it will. Soon you will be flipping the pages and desiring to know what Edward and Bella are up to.
All I ask is that you stay away from the film.
Please do so. Please.

Movie Reviews: The Second Installment
Here are the latest movie reviews from my brain.
Let the Right One In: This movie should have been called, "A suprisingly good film about preteen vampires that will make you leave the theatre thinking, 'I am pretty sure I just saw the most beautiful/horrific film ever made.'"
Quantum of Solace: This movie would be better suited with the titled. "Quantum of a whole lot of action with not a lot of story to back it up. However, it is a pretty amazing movie if you think about all the other Bond movies ever made, I mean come on, those movies are serious terrible. This may be one of the most horrible franchises in movie history. Yet, this one isn't bad. Go see it."
Finally,
Rolemodels: This film should have been called: "A suprisingly consistent and funny film. I mean you may predict every turn the story takes, but it is good for a solid hour and a half of chuckling. I mean, Reid saw it twice. Weird huh?"
I am aware these film titles are rather long, but they would at least inform the audience about the roller coaster ride (movie) they are about to embark on.
Thank you for your time

Guilty As Charged
I would like to think that I am a pretty good judge of music. However, no matter how I try to protect myself from certain types of music, it always finds its way in.
Case in Point: Paramore
Although I want to hate them, they got into my head. It started out as an innocent joke. Now it has just turned bad. Now I listen to them daily. It's really sick. Just so I don't feel alone, I put some videos up for you guys to get hooked also.
Enjoy:
