Movies to skip: Sucker Punch

"You'll be unprepared."- You're absolutely right!

  Sucker Punch

I feel like I am a sucker who got punched into seeing it. What went wrong? What was possibly right? I was a bit intrigued from the trailer. The intriguing parts was because I'm a girl (I liked their hair and their makeup), other than that it was a Zack Snyder movie and the music seemed really cool. My feelings still stand for what I liked about the movie after seeing it; the music and hair win.

If I was a fan boy/girl I would be in total nirvana because it looks completely like a comic book, but even I know comic books are suppose to make sense or at least be interesting. I'm a smart chick, I understood the "story" they were trying to tell but it just seemed so choppy and blah.

The story in a nutshell:

Babydoll is wrongfully accused and sent to a nuthouse. There she tries to escape by escaping into two (not one but two alternate realities). Reality one is the nuthouse but it's run like a burlesque club. When Babydoll starts to dance she goes into this other alternate reality and she begins her epic fight for freedom (that's when all the action really happens).

My friend said the perfect quote for this movie "It's like Inception for dummies". (I edited their quote. We don't use the "R" word around here.)

Nays about the film:

The Dancing. The thing is that you never see Babydoll dance. She just closes her eyes and goes into Ninja sexy school girl mode battling robots, dragons and weird looking samurais. I don't think I would be interested to see her dance anyways. I wonder if I close my eyes I would be able to kick some butt. Hmm...

The point. Lacking one.

Acting. Vanessa Hudgens said recently which is everywhere, that her ex-beau, Zac Efron should go see the movie... he's seen High School Musical trilogy before, he has some sort of an idea. 

Yays about the film:

Oscar Issac

Oscar Issac. He played Blue (also Joseph in The Nativity Story) the evil orderly/ nightclub owner.  I think the mustache and the flashy suit made him look super evil. He's the only person who stood out in the film. He did a wonderful job, I mean he played Joseph! He could make anything look good. He's definitely a person to watch.

Music. Zack Synder definitely comes from the Quentitn Tarintino school of putting great music in film. The music definitely fit the action sequences. One thing that didn't fit the movie was the bit at the end but that's something you will just have to see for yourself.


Hair and Makeup. I feel like I was in a Christina Aguleria video or watching Burlesque 2. Either way it worked. But question: How come girls who kick butt always have to have their hair and makeup made up. I would like to see a "normal" superhero or female action star without the hair, makeup and outfit. I feel like I started some epic fan boy/ feminist debate...




Selling point

If you look to see pretty girls fight in a Zack Synder (music video) movie then Sucker Punch is for you to go spend your $10 in the theater. If not, you can wait to watch it on Netflix (watch instantly) or just skip it entirely.

Joe Jonas: You're breaking my heart!

Stop it Joe Jonas, you're breaking my heart and I kinda like it but I'm still on the verge of tears. Recently, Joe Jonas has announced that he is going solo (exciting!). Along with the news of going solo comes the press; I give you Joe's first solo cover and solo story from Details magazine.

Let me just say: It's not him, it's me. Great article! Love where he's heading but I'm going through some type of denial stage. My man is grown and that's something that I have to deal with. I'm not sure if I want to change for him though. Yes, it's great he's an adult, I'm adult. I talk like an adult but I can't handle him talking like an adult and him doing an adult things. I do that! But now that I type this "aloud", it sounds that I want him to say young forever and I like little boys or something. I don't. But be honest, you have a Peter Pan fantasy thing too (Wendy Darling sure did).

I mean I just thought he would stay a little fun immature boy forever. Free of profanity, drinking, and that awful Alice Cullen. I liked those qualities about him. Good wholesome fun. I know it may not be realistic but I thought it was very honorable of him. These other things I at least expected from Zac Efron, who totally sounds like he could play Channing Tatum's cousin in Step Up 4. Just sayin' but I like it.



You can read the article here

Interesting points:

- The article does a comparison of Joe and Justin Timberlake. Travel back in time with me you loyal *N SYNC fans even JoBro fans who only heard of *N SYNC, but didn't you always think that JC Chasez would have blown up more than Justin did? I did. JC definitely had more musicality that Justin did, I think. I was surprised that his solo project didn't jump off. I hope that Nick doesn't follow in that footsteps.

- Joe is an awesome cook. He's so quick on his feet. He was making something and forgot a key ingredient for it and improvised. I totally would have gone back to the store. I do that all the time by the way. I make 50 trips to the grocery store... everyday.

- He bar hops and goes clubbing like a regular 20 something. I find that the most off putting because I don't do that anymore. I think I'm a fifty year old in a 20 something year old body. That doesn't even hold truth anymore because I'm sure there's a lot of cougars getting their Friday nights on.... probably hanging out with Joe :(.

-He really likes that Alice Cullen (barf). I'm sure she's a nice girl but I just don't like that whole cast. Their socially awkward.

- And he's totally a lady killer. He totally gets it in. Whatever that in is because there is this whole blurry line now with the purity rings. Which I think was quite honorable and no one's business. But he talks about all his relationships and stuff and I'm still on Team Joe. Taylor Swift is bitter and she goes through dudes a lot. She is Joe's equivalent: a maneater. There's nothing wrong with that just move on with your life. Own up to it.

Anyways my biggest fear in this is that Joe would turn into a Jersey Shore guy. I mean first he's at a Calvin Klien fashion show with these dudes and next they are you know at Karma creeping or something. Who knows. It's like creeping Hollywood style.

We'll Joe, I still love you no matter what. We're just going through growing pains (we'll I am). There's always Nick ( still too young but legal, but young, still).

67th Annual Golden Globes

So all day yesterday I was determined to watch the 67th Annual Golden Globes. A tradition I have mostly kept ever since I was able to comprehend what they really were. I even stuck through and watched when no one was there during the writer's strike which was not as painful as watching the People's Choice awards the same year. Sorry Queen Latifah but sometimes its good just to say no!

So with some protest to the members of my household we watched the show in its entirety, including the mess of the pre-show that NBC had on with that dude from one of those shows and Nick Lachey's girlfriend. It was torture to watch but the worst out of all of it is that why couldn't the people at The Beverly Hills Hilton at least have a tarp outside for the rain. A couple sheets of plastic, come on! And I'm pretty sure that they could have found ways to recycle it. It's not surprise, it does rain in LA. Be prepared next year!

So I would hate to bore anyone with my rendition of the ceremony because there are 5 million other sites doing so but I would just like to chime in a bit on my best parts, worst parts and why I still don't like James Cameron. Yeah I said it!

The Best Parts:

Right off the bat Mo'nique winning for Best Supporting Actress. I have not seen Precious yet, I really want to but I am a crier, a loud one and I feel like I don't want to embarrass myself in public. From what I heard and the clips that I seen I don't think that anyone would be able to leave that film in one piece. Her speech was beautiful and genuine and greatly deserved! Bravo!

Second part.... GLEE! That's my show! I love everything about it and I love how they got the recognition that it did. It's an awesome show and truly hilarious. And its great to see a show about young people win an award. Super!

Third part- Dexter's Michael C. Hall winning and John Lithgow. I'm super excited because I just started watching Dexter before Christmas and fell in love and most importantly Michael C. Hall is a genius. John Lithgow was as creepy as Dexter and it was nicely done. Can't wait for season 5.

By far my favorite part of the show..... The Hangover winning for Best Comedy.



Genius! Yeah, I will admit I am not crazy over The Hangover like most people I know. It's not apart of my vernacular and I don't have a crazy shenanigans nor do I aspire to but credit has to be given when credit was due. It was a funny movie and kudos. But seriously Mike Tyson up there on the stage accepting an award for a movie is truly EPIC!

Other highlights: Meryl Streep, UP and Drew Barrymore winning. :)

Lowlights:

Chloe whatever her last name, her dress, her speech about her dress, and her in general.



Yeah I probably would have been upset too and if I was the  designer I probably would have passed out but seriously lets calm down a bit. You're an actress. Act like you're cool with it and then unleash all heck out backstage. I'm sure that's what you do on your show, that I unfortunately don't watch. But from what I gather from it your character has to act like she is cool with her husband having two other wives right? So pretend like your character! It will be okay :)

True Blood not winning anything :( Boo. Well yeah, this season was okay compared to last. But whats so great about Mad Men? I will answer that soon, It's queued up on my Netflix.

Poor Joseph Gordon-Levitt. I recently watched (500) Days of Summer and it seriously messed me up badly. For anyone who hasn't seen it, it probably won't have the same effect on you. I'm just weird and pathetic. But it was a great movie and he was wonderful in it. I hope he at least gets nominated for an Oscar. If you haven't seen the movie go watch it!



Lastly! James "I'm going to quote a line from my movie even if its my own made up language" Cameron. I did not see Avatar. I really have no desire to see Avatar, just like I had no desire to see Titanic. I was actually forced to see it when it came out on VHS (two VHS tapes I might add) by my best friend and as soon as it was popped into the VCR I was planning for it to sink from the get-go. But don't get me wrong, I liked Terminator and Terminator 2.

James Cameron just bugs me and Avatar to me is like Titanic all over again just in space or whatever planet or year it is in. Seriously when they were playing the theme I thought it was Celine Dion but then I realized Leona Lewis was there and I put two and two together. But seriously sounded like My Heart Will Go On.... gosh James "quote a line" Cameron. Was he all like "I'll be back" back in the day?? If I was coherent back then I think I would have been more furious than I am now.



So that's how I spent my Sunday evening. And since the awards were simultaneously with the east coast, it was super early and I watched Good Burger on Nickelodeon. Remember when kid shows and movies were good?? Not saying that Good Burger was award worthy but certainly better than Hannah Montana! Just saying!



What was your take? And is Avatar really worth it?
