Blog post movie review edition! (mostly)

the bus ride was kind of cheering this morning. there was plenty of eye-candy. No, i am not talking about prince caspian, or the stoopy guy that sits in front of me. I'm talking about ~*FLOWERS!*~ It's that time of year! (where I whine about how i wish it was cold. actually this is the first time that i've wished for cold right about now. le sigh, free me from the warmth.) It's that time of year where plants burst into lacy flame! Explode with pink jewels and white feathers. Then the Time is over, and the pendants rain unto the ground, shriveled and curling in agony, As they Die. I have foreseen this. I have already seen the Rain begin.

no, but it's depressing how all of the flowers are just going to fall off, like right away. it look so amazing when every inches of tree branches are coated in flowers.

Onto the movie review: Prince Caspian! Spoiler warning for all who care.
Okay, this is going to be a sort of weird review:
So it started out and it was totally epix from the first few seconds of it. Wait, i take that back. Childbirth=icky. It was totally epix as soon as guys with swords showed up *swoon* haha not really. anyway that professor guy looked like such an owner coming down the hallway in all of those big cloaks. rebeccug was all like "it's voldemort!" and then he took off his hood and he was Dumbledore, how funny is that?

Caspian's escape was totally cool, because he is such a big owner to say the least. my brother might say that he's a Big Orange, but my brother is just weird that way.

So yeah, there was a lot of macho posturing that I found hard to stomach sometimes. Like the dwarf vs edmund, the king vs his council, king vs caspian, king vs. peter (lots of growling going on, oh come off your high horses you guys and save your breath), peter vs. caspian, edmund vs. peter, peter vs. a bunch of other boys. come on!! it was sort of funny though. And Reepacheep is awesome! he has so much honor, I bow to him. And yes, he is a mouse :D

I think the filming was just magnificent, everybody who made this were truly artists. it tied up really nicely at the end.

There were some groan moments though like parts that I won't fault, but they were just sort of... wonderfully classic moments. like "for narnia!" woo! It was also ridiculously refreshing to see an army of believable size!!! Like, the bad guys, when they zoomed out to show their army, it was big, but not ridiculously huge! They didn't need to pan the camera just to see every little ant of a person. It was just a practical nice size for grinding face. I love that. It seemed like movie producers these days have been mocho posturing too to see who can make the biggest army with special effects. I'm glad that this directer stayed out of that fight.

Nightmares. Forever. That weird wolf and that bizzare bird-woman. wthwthwth? it seemed like it didn't really fit in with the movie very well. but that wolf guy was sorta cool the same time he was scaring the skin off my back. "i can fast for thousands of years and drink rivers of blood and not burst, and probably inhale tons of flesh through my nose without sneezing, oh! and I can whip up a mean omelette's!"

Yeah, end of my mediocre movie review.

Book review!
kidding... sorta
The Secret Hour is crazy good! need.... second one... now... dying...
I finished it in science! So sonny was all like "mehbleh bleh, bleh blehmeh. Meh! mehmehfeh!" and I'm all like "yeah, as if! it's the climax! didn't you take LA? this is the part that is so exciting that you have to read it under your desk!"

Oh and in LRT we didn't do anything, after sonny announced that on our test we're going to have questions about "earthquakes" and "lightnings" because they "are really big in the world". my response "................" we haven't learned about them. But people were working on their newspapers the whole time. I made up a new "language" like, code. It's more squiggly than cuhro. i'm calling this Driss because a weird naming method i use. it looks really cool, but it's not like that artistic one I made or the practical one. so now I have:

Cuhro, i am fluent in, sort of practical, looks... dece at best.
Driss, looks pretty, sort of practical, not fluent.
Practical, stick like one, not fluent, made it up to go with one of my Underground stories
Artistic, looks cool but not elaborate, not practical, not fluent.

Anyway, i'm off to my cabin for the weekend see yallz at l8tr. oh god, i mean, I will see you guys on tuesday. That got way too "eyeburning" even for me. I'll probably have another really long post about the cabin. maybe the plumbing will work this time. but who doesn't love washing dishes in brown water? it's a singular experience.
