1: for real

Man of Steel

so, anyone who knows me even a little bit probably knows how much I was looking forward to this film counting down the days watching every trailer 50 times.. well for one thing they were the best previews for a film I have ever seen , hands down for an other Superman is my favorite superhero so of course I'm super excited for this film.. did it live up to my expectations? yes and no.

don't get me wrong I loved loved loved this movie visually it was probably the most beautiful film I've ever seen, not just the effects but the angle of the cameras. everything just beautiful, Henry Cavill who plays superman nailed it in my opinion, perfect superman/Kal-El (clark wasn't really utilized to the fullest capacity though, but I think they're saving that for the sequel, the action sequences were amazing, for someone moving that fast it was the most realistic take I've seen on it, Russel Crowe as Jor-El Kal-El father was amazing as well, pretty much only two things were a bit of a letdown for me, one was that some of the scenes felt short and could have gone deeper to explore more character development for such a stellar cast I feel like they weren't really used to their fullest potential.. but something that can easily be more drawl out in the sequel. the other was while the last battle sequence was very epic it could have been just a little shorter. but other then that and one or two other details I won't go into right now, I loved it amazing film perfect Superman, amazing Visuals, great score my favorite superhero film.. A+ also it sets up the scope for a wider DC universe much like Iron Man did for avengers.. and I'm very much looking forward to Justice League. The Flash, Aquaman and Hopefully a much overdo Wonder Women film. and of Course Man of Steel 2!

Barbie's Dream Castle..

oh Wow I know I've been talking about this film forever and you all know it's my favorite movie of all time now, but lets just elaborate on like when she first goes ice skating in the clouds breathtaking! or the part where she first dances with the prince! and it's so emotionally and in-depth. for a animated film loved it sooo! much A+++

well that's it folks my top 5 of the year so far! did it surprise you? comment below and fellow me! hope to be more active now.
2!!!

Star Trek Into Darkness

wow! I just I don't know what to say, I loved loved the first 'Star Trek' well J.J. Abrams 2009 Star Trek didn't think they could top it.. the adds while I thought looked good didn't completely convince me that it would be absolutely beautifully amazing   ....

which is what this film was it was like a roller coaster ride of all the right ingredients. it was just so fantastic from start to finish.. the acting was outstanding the visuals were amazing, the right amount of emotion and the score! it was one of the best films I've ever seen and even better then the first! after my over anticipation wears off for the movie that will not be named.. it might even end up number one on the list in my year in best films.. well see, do yourself a favor and see this film! it made me laugh and cry! A+
3: The Host


Yes an other romance, maybe because last year was so slim on them I was actually missing them a bit. or they just got very creative and weird this year.

I'm not sure why I liked this movie so much but I did, maybe cause it was soo weird, but there' no blood sucking or human eating so the more timid watching might be able to stomach this one at least

based on the Novel by Stephenie Meyer, (Author of Twilight)  It takes place on earth after planet earth is taken over my a parasitic alien race that takes over human bodies to make peacefully worlds, there is a girl named Melanie, who resists and is able to convince "wonderer" her Host to escape, with beautiful scenery and a unique story, it's a romance but that's not necessary the main part of the story it's more about the human spirit and well to survive and an unlikely very interesting friendship       that progresses throughout. loved the movie can't wait to get it when it comes out in about a week A-
4: Warm Bodies

I wasn't sure what to think of this movie at first, from the previews I couldn't tell if it would be another "Twilight" rip-off with Zombies!, which how can a movie while the guy is a zombie be romantic? well just watch the movie and you'll see, I couldn't stop smiling while watching this movie, it's about a Zombie name "R" well thats all he can remember of his name who finds himself drawl to a girl, named "Julie" (Romeo & Juliet anyone?) and ends up saving her from his zombie buddies and some how starts to become human again. it's funny, sweet, and just happy! sure it has it's gross parts.. (Spoiler )him eating her boyfriends brain to gives him his memories. which is weird and well gross. but I just found this movie a light happy pleasant surprise! high B+
5: Oz: the Great and Powerful.

Now, this was a tough decision actually. but Alas I went back and remembered how I felt watching this film and I actually had pretty low expectations for this film. thought it would be cheesy and that the monkey would be Jar Jar Binks awful!. I actually found him quite funny and while it's not masterpiece, it was visually stunning I especially. liked China girl, she looked real and fragile. and some of the sets were just gorgeous. but what I really enjoyed about this movie was it's humor and lightheartedness. it was just so childlike you might say sure not the deepest story and down-on-his-luck selfish dude goes on adventure to learn a lessen or two and ends up saving the day.. well for the most part.. although thoedora should have had a little sense oh well, overall an Enjoyable film, that took me by surprise! B+

(an honorable mention goes to "Safe Haven" which I found quite good, one of the better Nicholas Sparks Adaptations, and probably liked it about just as well)
Hi  Everyone! I know it's been forever sense my last blog update, and I'm sorry

so 2013 is already halfway over! can you believe it?!

and so far it's been a very interesting year movie-wise, if you've been paying any attention to my facebook page, you know that my most anticipated film of the year-well of several years more like. "Man of Steel" is finally out, and I've seen it of course.. three times.

but I guess the thing to do now is to make a list! cause thats what I do best, I also need to give a in-depth Review for at least "Man of Steel" but I'll start off my doing the top 5 films of the year so far.. That I've seen, there are several movies i really wanted to see and still haven't.
Now You See Me, The Croods, 42, Oblivion, G. I. Joe 2. I haven't seen Monsters University or the Heat yet, I'll probably see at least one of those in theaters though.

well I guess I'll start the list, let me Start by saying I was soo excited for "Iron Man 3" it looked like it would be awesome from the trailers and really epic. and I don't know if it was just that it was not what I was expecting or what but so far I'd have to say for me it was the biggest letdown of the year, for me, I guess it looked like it would be a bit more gritty and dark and it wasn't really, so I'm intersting to see what I'll think of it when I see it again on Dvd, it wasn't Awful. but not one of my favorite Superhero Movies, so it's not on the list. It might be higher once I watch it again though.

So Number 5 goes too...
