Look-a-likes

Has anyone ever told you that you looked like someone they know, or that you remind them of someone. I find it interesting who people think you resemble. Be it a real person or a cartoon character. Here are a few that people have told me. You be the judge of who you think I most resemble.
Lindsay Lohan from Freaky Friday - Skater/punk style clothing. Red hair. Tomboy.
Avril Lavigne from the early days - Skater/punk style clothing. Dark Makeup. Tomboy.
Robin Sena from Witch Hunter Robin - A craft user of fire. She hunts down witches. She is quiet most of the time and occassionally wears glasses. Wears a Victorian era dress and a long blood red jacket.Haruko Haruhara from Fooly Cooly (Furi Kuri) - Crazy extraterrestrial investigator that is off the wall and random. She rides a yellow Vespa and has a bass guitar. She often wears goggles and a scarf.
Mai from My-Hime - A student at a school for HIME's. She is magical girl that can create a weapon out of thin air and fight off monsters. She is caring and hardworking. Red hair.
Nami from One Piece - Red hair, big mouth, a bit crazy. I haven't seen much of this show, so I am not sure what her character is like.
Maka Albarn from Soul Eater - She is a hardworking student that weilds a demon weapon to fight evil. She is level-headed and stubborn. She is a powerful fighter.
Jessie from Toy Story 2 - A yodeling cowgirl. Can do things herself. Fun, but serious. Kari from The Incredibles - The tomboy babysitter. She has blue eyes, braces, freckles and red hair. She talks out of the side of her mouth a bit. She talks about Mozart making babies smarter. In Jack-Jack Attack she has eyelashes, but in The Incredibles Film she does not.

Humm....Lindsay Lohan, meh. Avril Lavigne, very flattering. Characters from anime series, interesting. Out of all these, I think that I most resemble Kari from the Incredibles. When I first saw this movie in the theater and saw her, I was a bit shocked. She totally (to the T!) looks like me when I was in Junior High School. The hair, the braces, the clothes, and the way she talks.

X-Men Origins: Wolverine Movie Trailer

X-MEN ORIGINS: WOLVERINE HD


X-Men Origins: Wolverine looks like it is going to be an awesome movie. With a well rounded cast a great director, and hopefully a good story, they will be able to pull it off. Hugh Jackman is a great Wolverine and he is the producer of the film as well. I loved the first 2 X-men movies, and the 3rd one X-Men: The Last Stand blowed!!! A crappy director and a cheesy script were the major downfalls to this film. Brett Ratner totally botched it and why in the crap did Bryan Singer have to leave to film Superman?...we will never know. One thing is for sure is that Brett Ratner should stick to filming Rush Hour movies.

I AM A GAMBIT FREAK!














Now, my 2 favorite X-Men characters are Wolverine and Gambit. I am a huge fan of Gambit. He's got an awesome accent, he is a Ragin' Cajun from New Orleans, he's got an awesome trench coat, cool eyes, he plays cards and he is a great fighter. I own all the Gambit Comic books of the original series and I am a little upset at the person that they picked to play Gambit for this Wolverine Origins movie. Lame teeny bopper Taylor Kitsch from Friday Night Lights. Ug, he is too young and his nose isn't as prominent as Gambit from the Comic books and cartoon series.















In X-Men: United the name of Remy LeBeau, aka Gambit, is seen on the computer screen when Mystique breaks into the underground facility. In X-Men: The Last Stand there was suppose to be a cameo of Gambit played by stuntman James Bamford, but the scene was cut.

It was also rumored that Gerard Butler, Bailey Chase, James Franco, Channing Tatum, and Josh Holloway were considered for the role of Gambit. Out of all those considered I think that Josh Holloway would have fit the bill. He looks like the character and has a southern accent like the character as well.

All I have to say is that Taylor Kitsch better do a good job.

Something else bugs me about the previews, seeing the Gambit character and all. In the comic books and the cartoons Gambits' eyes have black sclera and red iris's, on the film though, his eyes appear normal. That really bothers me because one of Gambits' trademarks are his devilish red eyes.

Twilight Movie Review - May contain spoilers

I have read the books and I went into this movie a little skeptical with medium to high expectations. I came out of the theater thinking that they totally could have done better. It was an okay film, entertaining, but left me feeling like there was something missing. I sat there watching it and hoped that it would get better, but it didn't. And as always...the books are better.

First of all, the good...

The actors they chose for the cast were perfect. One word....Carlisle...mmm yeah. Anyway, They got to the main points of the story. The action sequences are pretty good. The baseball scene is the best. The costumes and makeup are good. The music was good.

Now the bad...

The Director sucks...she has done a lot of "indie" films and you can see it play out here. The direction of the actors was kind of bad. There were alot of strange akward pauses, actions and the actors seemed to hesitate with their lines. And some of the lines were so cheesy and laughable. The relationship between the 2 main characters wasn't as strong as it was in the books. There a lot of little moments that Bella and Edward share and it hardly stopped on those. The film style is atrocious. Going with the directors favorite "indie" style, Most shots are handheld and there are way too many closeups. The vehicles don't completely match the description of what is in the book, Bellas truck is suppose to be an older Chevy truck. For the sake of time, A LOT was cut out...and I mean ALOT...It seemed like a bunch of clips edited together and it was very choppy. The story didn't flow well and it left alot out. For people who haven't read the books I am sure it was hard to figure out what was going on. The artsy end credits were lame.

What could have been better....

Different director. Someone who has had experience directing an epic type of film. Get a different DP or Camera Operator. Put the camera on a freakin' tripod and hold still!!! Get different screen writers. Make the story flow better and stick to the story for that matter. Develop the characters a bit more and give them more screen time, they barely scratched the surface with the Cullen family. They could have put more emphasis on the song that Edward plays on the piano, or introduce it in a different way and make it the theme for the series, sort of like how Harry Potter has a theme throughout the films. Also Edward hums a lullaby to Bella and that isn't even in the film...that is like a huge part of the books! They should have made this film with a similar style as Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, or even Spiderman and X-men. I mean, it is an epic book! Tons of people have read it and support it, so why did they make this film with such a low budget???

All in all this film needed better direction, camera work and screenwriting.

I give it a rating of 2 1/2 STARS.

Well, that is my review. Take it as you will. Please don't send me hate mail, the expressions and views of this entry are opinions.

Halloween 2008

Halloween this year was okay. I wish that I had the time and the money to make a cool costume like usual, but hey, maybe next year. For the past few years my family has started a Halloween tradition of having a Halloween party with family, friends and neighbors, but this year we decided just to have some family over, carve pumpkins and have some awesome food. My dad made his great chili and my mom made a cheesy potatoe soup that was so freakin' good. Then on Halloween my sister and her kids came over and my brother and sister-in-law came over and we took the kids trick-or-treating. It was fun, the weather was nice, it only sprinkled a bit. Oh, and I got to dress up my sister with some clothes from my costume closet. I created an ensemble that turned out to be a 1800's mortician.
My sisters sweet pumpkin.

My friend Judge dressed up as Micheal Myers.

Cars at the Halloween Car Show at the Magna Arctic Circle were all dressed up too.

Ahh!!! Scary!

Arrr! I be a pirate scout! J.C.Hackett at the Oldies booth.

My DeLorean and my moms friends Datsun Truck.

My cool Garfield and Odie pumpkins that I painted. The pumpkins were so hard that I couldn't carve them, so I ended up painting them as Garfield and Odie from the Garfield Halloween Special.

My carved pumpkins, I just wanted to do some faces. The white one is a Jack Skellington. My sister in her Mortician Outfit.

More Halloween Pics coming soon.

This is Halloween

Nothing says Halloween like getting bitten by a Vampire. My sister being the culprit in this case. I look like a doof, staring off into nothing. I made her into a Vampire for Makeup Class. I even made her some custom Vampire Teeth. The shirt is mine and the jewelry is provided by Lia Sophia.
Halloween is my favorite holiday. I love orange and black and fall is my favorite season. Halloween is dark, creepy, evil, and awesome. Changing Leaves, Moonlit Nights, Carving Pumpkins, Haunted Houses, Corn Mazes, Bobbing for Apples, Trick-or-Treating and Candy, Candy, Candy, Candy. I like the things that have been tied to Halloween, things such as Werewolves, Frankenstein, Vampires, Vlad the Impaler (Dracula), Zombies, Ghosts, Goblins, Black Cats, Witches, Mummies, Skeletons, Spiders and spiderwebs, Crows, Owls, Magic and Spells.
My Harry Potter Pumpkin was the coolest.

Something Ironic about my love of Halloween is that I do not like Horror/Scary Movies. Sure I like blood and guts, but I don't like to be freaked out or scared. However, I always thought it would be cool to get some ghost hunting gear and go out to search for ghosts, but I would get freaked out, or rather I would psych myself out. Think things that were not there, see things that were not there. Still I wouldn't mind trying it as long as I had something to fend off the ghosties.

I think the coolest part of Halloween is the opportunity to dress up as whatever one wishes and go out in public. Almost every year I dress up for Halloween. I usually make my own costumes or purchase things at Thrifts stores to create a costume. I usually spend alot, the most I have spent was around $300. Once Halloween is over, I instantly think of what I am going to be the next year. Yeah, I know I am a freak.

Things that I have dressed up as and can remember include...
In Elementary School: Tiger, Cougar

In Junior High: Pauly Shore from Encino Man, Wayne from Wayne's World

In High School: Witch, Hippie

In College: A Black Cat, Rogue from X-Men, Tomb Raider, Legolas from LOTR, Shinigami from the Bleach Anime series.
Shinigami from Bleach anime. Legolas from Lord of the Rings...yeah, I know it is a guy character, so what! This wasn't for Halloween,but me and my buddies from Film Production Class filmed a spoof cop film.

I was told from my friend Travis McFarland (aka. Von) that I looked like Robin from the Witch Hunter Robin anime series, so I thought I would be her for Halloween one year. I started to make the costume, but I still have yet to complete it. This is what it would look a bit like...This year I will attempt to be steampunk. If you do not know what that is...look it up. Think Van Helsing and Wild Wild West.
I will try to find more pics of my past costumes and post them on here.

I wish there was some sort of Masquerade Ball at the Capitol or somewhere that was for 21 and older, where they would play classical music and everyone would ballroom dance. Where you had to wear 18th and 19th Century gowns and tuxedos and a mask or you would not be admitted. Think of the scene on the movie Van Helsing where Kate Beckinsale is at Dracula's Place and everyone is dancing. Now that would be cool!
