Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince comes out on Wednesday, July 15. I've included themovie trailers below if you want to watch them. I highly recommend that you watch them actually, they're brilliant!

This movie is going to be amazing. No offense, Twilight fans, but the Harry Potter movies are in a whole nother league compared to the Twilight movies.

The one thing i'm confused about, regarding HBP, is its rating: PG. If i remember correctly, this book was fairly frightening. Hopefully the rating isn't a direct reflection of it leaving out essential parts of the book, especially if it's in order to allow more fans to see the movie in the theaters. Quality people!!!! that would make me and a lot of other HP fans pretty mad.

New Moon: 11.20.09

THE TWILIGHT SAGA: NEW MOON trailer in HD


OK. I admit it. I'm 25-years-old and am a tween lit reading, chick flick watching, pop culture obsessed, fantasy junkie and as embarrassing as you might think it is for me to admit what I just did...well it's just something I had to do.

I love the Twilight series and canNOT wait for the New Moon movie to come out! November 20, 2009. Mark it down on your calendars right...meow! You know i already have!

I actually wasn't super excited about the New Moon movie, especially after watching and laughing at the horrible acting and "special effects" in Twilight. Well, that was until I watched the New Moon trailer, which i have conveniently included in my post for your viewing pleasure :)The special effects look a gazillion times better, the acting too.

It'll be interesting to see if Taylor Lautner can pull off playing the leading male role in New Moon. I really hope so! I loved Jacob in the series and hope I can continue to appreciate the character in the movies as well. (Good luck to you Mr. Lautner!)

On another note, You have to read this FmyLife.com post about Twilight. I LOLed when i read it. I mean i love Twilight, but this girl takes the cake!

FMyLife.com: "Today, my girlfriend dumped me proclaiming she wanted someone more like her "Edward". I asked her who Edward was. She held up a copy her "Twilight" book. She was talking about a fictional vampire. FML"

Happy Obama Day!

Today, January 20th, Barack Hussein Obama was inaugurated as the 44th President of the United States of America. Today I am proud to call myself an American and even prouder to say that WE, the American People finally came together for the greater good and elected someone we are proud and honored to call our President.

"Our challenges may be new. The instruments with which we meet them may be new. But those values upon which our success depends - hard work and honesty, courage and fair play, tolerance and curiosity, loyalty and patriotism - these things are old. These things are true. They have been the quiet force of progress throughout our history. What is demanded then is a return to these truths. What is required of us now is a new era of responsibility - a recognition, on the part of every American, that we have duties to ourselves, our nation, and the world, duties that we do not grudgingly accept but rather seize gladly, firm in the knowledge that there is nothing so satisfying to the spirit, so defining of our character, than giving our all to a difficult task."

And in honor of our 44th President, here's a lil playlist i've created:

As JFK said back in 1961, in his Inaugural Address: "And so, my fellow Americans: ask not what your country can do for you- ask whta you can do for your country." It's time for change. Lets make it happen.
