on my own

I love to watch poor people sing as much as the next girl. That being said, I was super excited for the Les Miserables movie trailer....until I saw it. I had completely forgotten how poorly they casted the movie. Okay - well just one poor casting decision. Anne Hathaway? Really? Seriously? Once you hear her sing, I think you'll be on my side. I feel bad she cut her hair for this role. Ain't no way she's winning an oscar for this.

One great thing about this movie: EDDIE REDMAYNE. I could stare at his lips all.day.long.

I keep forgetting he's 19 and 4'11

I love the Hunger Games as much as the next girl who's obsessed with Peeta, but this is just a touch crazy.

Yes - that is a Peeta Mellark pillow case. The description:

"Subtlety is for the weak, and the Hunger Games Movie Peeta Mellark Pillowcase does not bend to the weak-willed! Made of 100% polyester microfiber and measuring 20-inches x 26-inches, this pillowcase is not designed for those unprepared for the grueling competition of the Games. If you must, take inspiration from Josh Hutcherson's Peeta Mellark, feature male tribute from District 12 in The Hunger Games and subject of this very Hunger Games Movie Peeta Mellark Pillowcase. Makes the perfect gift for the fan of the book series and movie The Hunger Games!"

Someone call me when it's printed on 800-count Egyptian cotton made by Frette. Until then, I'll just stare at the poster above my bed.

"oscar" was the name of the baby on ghostbusters 2

OSCAR weekend! Should we place bets on who will win 'best actor' and 'best movie'? If George Clooney wins for "The Decedents", I will throw something at the television. Talk about a sad, dreary, boring movie. I truly only think he won the SAG award for the 2 minute run he completed in the movie. I still don't understand the whole land titled issue or the crazy Hawaiians. I thought the movie was boresville and again, if it wins, I will throw something at the tv.

Other movies up for best picture: Tree of Life, The Artist (I haven't seen it but I can tell I love it), The Help (excellent casting), Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close, Hugo, Midnight in Paris (the opening 5 minutes are perfection), Moneyball (I thought this movie was stupid), War Horse.

Best male actor: Brad Pitt, George Clooney, Jean Dujardin, Gary Oldman, Demain Bichir. I'm picking Jean Dujardin because he looks like Clark Gable and everyone knows Gone with the Wind is my favorite movie. Gary Oldman was okay in Tinker Tailor, but the movie stunk like rotten eggs. I saw it with 3 girlfriends and we all walked out of the movie asking what had just happened with the last 2 hours of our lives. It was miserable.  Brad Pitt in Moneyball...I don't understand why they made this movie or why people think he was so spectacular. Same with George.

Best female actor: Glenn Close, Viola Davis, Rooney Mara, Meryl Streep, Michelle Williams. MOTHER FUCKING MERYL. Glenn Close in her cross dressing role is freaky. Viola Davis was superb, but is up against Meryl. Rooney's weird bangs, her flawless skin, and the fact that she can't keep her mouth shut are her downfall. Oh also, the Swedish version of the movie was MUCH better. And I think everyone knows how I feel about Michelle Williams - so I'm handing the big WIN to Meryl.

To keep in theme with this post, I would also have you know that over the weekend I saw "this means war". One word to describe the movie, "THEWORSTMOVIEIHAVEEVERSEENINMYENTIRELIFE". Pass on this. Even the hotness of Tom Hardy doesn't save it. I also saw "the vow" two weekends ago. Channing Tatum is insanely hot so he helps this movie along. It's not awful per se.... Speaking of awful, Jennifer Aniston's new movie looks like the pits. What is wrong with her and her movie choices? She hasn't been in a good one since Picture Perfect. True story.

I HAVE TO WAIT TILL MARCH?!?

The Hunger Games trailer is out!  Originally, I was concerned about the casting but I have to say I am plesantly suprised. Peeta is adorable...sigh.

let's go to the movies

There are a bunch of new movies out that I'm dying to see. "What's your number" and "Ides of March" are at the top of the list.  "50/50" also looks interesting.  Lion King 3D? No worries, I already saw it. Don't hate.

The trailer for Tom Hanks' new movie, Extremely Loud and Incredible Close, has been released. I know September 11th was ten years ago, but it still unnerves me to see the images. The movie looks interesting...though I'm not sure its a theatre see. Your thoughts?
