The New Jennifer Lawrence?

got the week of so i'm on some very overdue spring cleaning.. anywho doing this i'm looking through a lot of magazines that i have managed to pile up over the years... newest one i got hands on yesterday and was looking through it just now.. in this magazine there is an interview with Shailene Woodley who has played in the Descendants (that i have yet to see) and is currently to be found in Divergent a movie who has actually caught my eye and is to be watched when possible.. so yeah i just skimmed the article since stuff like that has surprisingly little interest to me... surprisingly because i'm the girl who can use the better of an hour watching Kirsten Bell get to meet a sloth... anywho what bugged me about this article is that it keeps stating if Shailene Woodley is the new Jennifer Lawrence and that Divergent is to be the new Hunger Games.. ze fuck is that about.. Can't Shailene just be Shailene? does she have to be the new Jennifer for anyone to want to watch her movies.. clearly she has been doing something right at an earlier point so why not keep her to that instead?

But to be honest i am not that big a fan of Lawrence so why would it make me wanna watch a movie with the new Lawrence... and more than that if i wanted to watch Lawrence then why not watch the real deal instead of the new deal?

Sadly this is not a one time case.. it is happening all the time.. like oh will Hunger Games be the new Twilight? well shit i hope not.. or oh that is the new Pink (this would be Jessie J btw) and no i don't believe she is the new Pink- actually every time i see her i think she is a White Girl trying to be a Black Dude.. anyway nothing wrong with that i guess...  

my real question is why can't we just be impressed with someones work without setting them up against someone from earlier time.. and if we absolute have to.. then why the h don't we compare them to someone just a tad older and more impressing than Jennifer Lawrence.. 

anywho might just be me... 

I Did It!!!!

Finally... I Finally got through the first season of Lost... Lost is not a bad series.. actually i rather like it... so why finally... well.. there is all them series trying to lead me astray... I have a really bad itch to rewatch the entire Lost Girl from scrats... and not only that.. I wanna watch Veronica Mars to.. specially since the movie is to appear soon... and time is not really growing on trees these days and well the weather is so dang good that i ought to be outside instead of sitting in front of Lenox (just don't ask) and watch series...

i am rather proud though that i have been able to stick to Lost and not watch any of the other shows.. not even new ones that just on paper looks so much more interesting... Sticking with the program.. si that is what i must do..

anywho this is kinda just a post to let ya know i'm not dead.. oh and here is a picture of a Minion...

Frozen (2013)

FINALLY!

i was so looking forward to this one.. and for quite some time to... i even set up to watching it and my besties wasn't up for it since he wanted us to watch it together... so i waited.. last weekend (oh i know it's like i live on another planet these days) we got around to watching it and i was not even the slightest disappointed.. . might be the love i have for all them animations... anywho...

frozen is about 2 siblings a strained from each other after a small accident one night when they were kids... so they grow up pretty much alone all the time.. when the oldest sister Elsa comes of age she is crowned which require a small (like huge) party.. during the party the younger sister Anna falls for this guy and decides that marriage is a great idea... Elsa isn't really up for that idea and in a state of anger she lets her powers of ice show and well then the trouble kinda starts and Elsa runs away leaving everyone else confused and slightly scared of their new queen. Anna on the other hand just wants to get her sister back and that leaves her with only one choice... go get Elsa back... yeah that sounds like an awesome idea...

yeah i was one of those people who found the video with Olaf and Svend and shared it with basically everybody who let there guard down just for a minute... anywho Frozen... well i know enough stories to know that this is an interpretation of the Snow Queen. also i'm danish.. H. C. Anderson is kinda mandatory... but well pretty much all Disney movies is interpretations of fairy tales... I love those and i love this... i love this a lot actually. It is about sisterly love, it is about finding yourself and mostly it is about being free and accept who you really are instead of hiding.. 

and as a bigger sister i can recognize small things that are just things sisters do... and even more.. i think it really captures how siblings just love each other unconditional... well most siblings do though... and that is like the thing little girls all over the world is gonna see to... and lets face it this is a fairy tale for girls.. well most Disney's are by the way...  

 

well now i'm just gonna go back to singing along to this wonderful movie that i'm gonna love owning in the nearest future :D 

Sherlock (2010 - ?)

after i finished Crossing Jordan i was asking a buddy of mine what i should watch next since i wasn't really in the mood for movies and my series list is quite long and hard to get a good overview of. He was like oh oh you have to watch Sherlock I'm sure you would love it... well my buddy knows me well...

we have all been exposed to the stories of sir Arthur Conan Doyle the brilliant writer of the Sherlock Holmes stories... and don't say you haven't... Sherlock has been filmatized so many times... even Disney did their try on it.. (Oh admit it you knew Basil Mouse is a spin off of the great master) and one of the newest hits in the line must be the work of one Robert Downey Jr.... yes i love his work too ;)

so what is it with this series... it is of a newer note due to the fact that season 3 (currently the last but hopefully with a new one on its way)  aired no later than January this year (2014 if you were to be in doubt...) so yeah it is pretty new in it... it is also different than the others... the stories is set in the time where knowledge had no compare toward today's knowledge.. no computers no easy access and certainly no cellphones...  this series though has taken the stories to the 21st century where all those things are in abundance. Where the other side of the planet isn't further than a click away... just look at this blog as an example... i have no idea where you are from but while you are reading this you are getting the thoughts and words from a danish woman.. that is only possible because of the internet that hits us with so much information every second... more than we often know what to do with... anyway i'm pretty sure i'm getting sidetracked here...

I love the adaption they made with this one.. it is absolutely brilliant.. (i'm using that word rather lot these days...) i love the way they made it possible to take a so well known story and still make it new, different and very much entertaining.. i mean there isn't a lot of episode they are rather long but hell i would have watched them all in a days worth if i had the time for it.. It is funny and clever and filled with excitement that keeps you stuck on it and wishing for more and more.. oh yeah i'm not a fan of the "you might be lucky to get a season 4 in 2016" thing that IMDb is showing me... I WANT MORE....!!!

okay i sound like i need help now.. maybe i do.. anywho... what on earth am i gonna watch now?

"what did just happen... did i just text a murderer?"

Crossing Jordan (2001-2007)

I am sorry for being so quiet lately... it is just that life altering, staying out of trouble and mostly watching series kinda make it hard on me to write all that much...

anywho... I finished Crossing Jordan today... again... i loved this series growing up and it is right there among my other favorite murder/crime series... i actually remember rushing home from school (at least when i went to school) just so i could catch the entire episode on tv.. what i love about it.. well there is the murder/crime aspect think we already established that i'm quite the fan of the genre but also the characters... mention this before to... you could have the greatest story in the world but if you don't have the characters to back it up it will fall through... and angry little girl like me loved the Jordan who clearly needed anger management and yet had this high amount of love and care for her family..

oh maybe i should explain what the show is about... just maybe..

Jordan Cavanaugh is a medical examiner who has meet well some difficulties in her job... luckily she gets a joboffering in Boston by an old colleague that know just how brilliant she is.. thing about Jordan is that she goes her own way and has quite the angry spirit.. probably because of her childhood trauma of loosing her mom... her brilliance in the job however is from her father the old cop who used to play murder/victim games with her to figure out not just who did it but why...

so there you have it.. that is basically what the show is about.. minus all the relations and stuff.. you have to watch that part yourself.. :P

2014... oh and February

I'm so sorry for well not writing anything... starting up was a bit harder than expected (dang that sleepy heart of mine) juggling work, sickness, snow and movies into a pot.. well lets just say i haven't been big on the movie part...

so the beginning of a new year... what should it really be about... i believe it is about reflecting the year that has just past and changing whatever you feel like need changing.. so that is kinda what i have been doing.. or at least trying to do... and it may have come across my hobby as a moviemuncher... i dunno.. it's not like i have been putting it on ice.. i have watched a few movies and i'm nearing the end of Crossing Jordan... and there have been occasionally Simpsons episodes crossing my screen so yeah.. its just that other things have been more pressing than writing about these things.. like seeing friends and catching up with old ones so they might become close friends once again.. yeah that is what my 2014 has been about so far...

now the movie world... well oh cause i was in the movies and watch The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug What kind of moviemuncher would i be if i had not seen that one.. i loved it btw exept the ending.. that was just cruelty on a high level and yes i have had the song I See Fire stuck in my head pretty much ever since...

of ongoing movies in the theater there is not one where i'm like I HAVE TO GO SEE IT but i am looking forward to setting my eyes on Frozen and Rio 2... catching fire is also one on my wanna watch list but a friend of mine had already seen it and advised me to wait until the next part comes out

unto the universe of upcoming movice.. well my besties is convinced that i just have to watch Lego Movie... i'm not in the same state of convinced that he is but we'll see.. To be honest i'm not good at getting scoop on what is gonna show up in this year so i'm slightly cheating by looking at a list for upcomming movies... well at least i have watch the trailers for them..

oh Pompeii is gonna come in march.. that looked so awesome when i watched the trailer and yeah i kinda dig historical movies.. i am afraid though that this one might be too romantic and well it is a risk... the book thief where did i stumble upon that one before.. looked promising i remember that much...

other than that it is not much.. sure i am gonna watch the new x-men at some point.. right after i get my act together and watch the new wolverine..

but here is some i don't need to find at a list to tell you that i can't wait to see... i have snooped up (well someone told me) that they are making a Veronica Mars Movie... uh uh uh can you say want? i absolutely looooooved the series and i was so sad about them cancelling season 4.. it was so much better than Buffy... anywho the old crew have been found to make this movie happen and yeah if it shows in theater around here in small and slightly dull DK i'm soooo there.. and i'll bring along a nice friend ;)

then there is how to train your dragon 2... well since i watched the first one over 20 times in a single december it is a no brainer that i have to watch the second one.. so yeah that one is on my list...

then there is only left to wait until the next hobbit arrives and that we reach 2016 to say Hi to the lovely Captain Jack Sparrow and of cause that they finish making the Finding Dory movie.. like it is Dory.. who doesn't love her? 

oh right it's Christmas

so if i have any regulars (i get a feeling i at least have a few) it is more than obvious that i have been anywhere but around here lately... thing is i have been en school since October and as it is that means a couple of exams in the ending of this month... i finished last Thursday with awesome grades BTW so it is all gooooood...

now it is 3 days from Christmas eve and yeah i have not really found the holiday mood yet... but i will get there i'm sure... at least i'm not tired of Christmas like i usually am... but i am spending a few days at home before my shift on the 23 in the company of family sort of anyway..

on the note of make believe world.. well due to exams i have not spend that much time roaming around in that world.. sure i have watch my weekly Lost Girl but on the other hand am i hopelessly behind on both Castle and The Good Wife... been watching a lot of Crossing Jordan lately though.. turns out i can study and semi rewatch that one at the same time... also i kinda lost track of the movies i have been watching lately so the list in my linklist is only updated until the 1st of November... so well yeah kinda lost meaning to the project but hey it is all fun and games right..

Anywho... basically i just wanted to wish people a merry Christmas since it is not likely for me to get anything watched or me getting online before Christmas eve so.. the i said it.. tuddles :P
