BRAVE REVIEW + WTS FILMS

 THIS CONTAINS SPOILERS

 After hearing about this film for so long i've finally decided to watch it! I thought it was going to be a romantic comedy at first, since the trailer on tv was all like 'you must be married!' Sneaky trailer's (-.-) what it did turn out to be was a strong, heartfelt tale about the relationship between a very traditional mother and a daughter who just wants to live life without her mother poking around.

I can relate to this story, except the bear part. We've all had to endure insistant nagging 'especially when trying to get me out of bed for school hahah' I've never wanted my mother to change exactly, more LISTEN, which is a recurring theme throughout the tale, as well as Nanny Mcphee,now that I think about it.

I get quite strong emotions when watching movies.This may be why I dislike watching scary movies, depending on the actor, I can feel the tension and fright so strongly I get paranoid days after that some dude with a chainsaw is going to pop round the corner and end me, but during that scene when Merida ripped the tapestry her mother had worked so hard to make, I felt like she deserved a punch, more so when she ran away on her horse, then a double whammy when she turned her mother into a bear. Like WHAT. GROVEL & APOLOGISE FOOL. She did eventually, at the end of the film but it took thaaat long.Which I guess was nescessary considering the whole moral of the story (I think) was to listen to eachother and talk it out.

But other than wanting to punch her, the ending also made me cry. I thought It was so sad when her dad was going to kill her mum, and then when she thought her mum was going to be a bear forever. That sounded really stupid when I read it over but it touched my soul! I'd never want to loose my mother, by the hand of my father no less! Traumatising stuff Brave! 

Altogether, I thought this was a cool movie,love the accents, easy to follow plot and the age range is universal. I wouldn't replace Jasmine with Merida though. Jasmine made me want to be a princess all those years ago. Merida just makes me want to pick up archery. .wait, instead of taking one away, couldn't they have just added. if someone wanted the whole boxset of disney princesses, they wouldn't mind paying that lil bit extra. INFACT I WANT THE WHOLE BOXSET...(goes on ebay).

The cute credits song!

Hey Guys! I'm really loving the new layout for blogging posts, so much more space to type! I still think the picture posting methods could use a little pick me up, like have the' square' function on the photos like on word haha, would make my life easier fo sure!

I've had a very eventful week! I've reached the end of another college year, and have been able to celebrate the Queens Diamond Jubilee with the rest of my town! I also watched Snow White and the Huntsman + hung out with the lovelie Tara ! 
And guess what, I'm feeling way better! I honestly think i'm on the road to recovery.. except the fact that I couldn't sleep last night & only got 4 hours sleep, but that was a one off..I hope hehe.

SnowWhite & the Huntsman

Went to see this film with some of my makeshift family on wednesday, I didn't realise it was Chris Hemsworth during the film! I went to Samu afterwards and said, 'hey he reminds me of thor!' of course the appropriate answer was ' yeah, that is him' ;L 

The Review: My thoughts on the movie are a mixed bag, i thought it was ok, I loved the wonderlandish forest they created for her and the huntsman to hide in. The dwarf's lol so funny, congrats to the writer for the childish humor ;L I'm no actor, but some of the bits with the elderly dwarf i was cringing a bit and the true love bit caught me off guard. but altogether, it was an ok movie. To me its one of those movies where you'd think it was ok but you wouldn't watch it again haha

We had time before the movie so we decided to take some photos of our outfits of the day...

Film List: May 2012

Films I've been wanting to see this year!

Dr.Seuss' The LORAX:  I love my animations haha, It was out a while ago but i never saw it in the cinemas ;/ my aim is to watch this somehow asap! What attracted me to this movie was the trailer which i stumbled upon on youtube one day...i mean, blow up bushes? jelly vegetables?! having to pay for your oxygen?!?! Crazy shizz it helps that Taylor Swift and Mr. High School Musical are the voices for the cute couple in it. I also loved the bit at the end of the trailer where the Lorax is like ' Thats a woman?! 0_0' HA

The Avengers: I've actually already gone to see their movie but I wanted to post about it anyway, but in as few a words as possible, it was AWESOME! It humor was so witty and funny, something i wouldn't expect in such a serious (or so I thought) action movie, and the action shots! Oh my word they were so coool.

 I loved the building of the friendships between the avengers throughout the movie, expecially between Bruce and Tony, pulled at my heart strings haha. I saw this movie in 3D but if i'm honest, nothing eally came out at me as i wanted. Sure things were in 3D (the buildings..Coulson's head) but when a flying evil monster would come at me, it would be ruined when parts of the body would be cut off from the screen. But altogether, bloody awesome movie. WELDONE!

The Dark Knight Rises: I am looking forward to seeing  this movie very much! I wouldn't say i was a die hard batman fan, i've only watched the Christian Bale movies (where i totally fell in love The Joker mwahahha) but im mega looking forward to seeing Tom Hardy be a bad guy haha. The trailer looks promising so hopefully this movie will be a BLAST!

PROMETHEUS: YES, Prequal to the Alien films this movie seems promising to sci-fi horror lovers! Its has a lot of advertisement in the UK so far, catching the attention of loads of people who don't even like alien films. The trailer looks good, i've watched it on tv too many times haha 'not a map, an invitation' <-- starts to get annoying after a while, I can't place her accent at all ;L Michael Fassbender, my crush will be starring as David the robot hehehehe

The Hobbit : An Unexpected Journey  Im a Lord of the Rings closet fan hehe, been wanting the one ring for a while!:O ill be interested to see how Watson does as Bilbo Baggins, ah so excited!!

Tadaa, The films i'm eager to watch so far! As you can tell, i'm really into action films haha. Until next time! I'm waiting for photos of my weekend to post for your guys, lots and lots of icecream!

Ciao beautiful people! Akikik xxx
