Guest Blogger review of Harry Potter!!!
My good friend Justin got a chance to see Harry Potter today and offered to write a review for me. Here is Justin's review of Harry Potter....
On Friday ,November 19, 2010 I went to see the first part of the epic finale of Harry Potter. “The Deathly Hollows” clocks in at two hours and thirty five minutes, however it felt like a very short film because of the large-scale action packed scenes and the phenomenal special effects. Having read the legendary books and also seen all the movies I am a HUGE Harry Potter fan. This summer I took a trip to the Harry Potter Theme Park at Universal Studios, Florida and got to experience all the great things that go on in the Wizarding World Of Harry Potter, After seeing the sets I felt ready for the movie to come out and thought it was well done.
The movie opens up with Hermione Granger A.K.A. Emma Watson being forced to erase her parents memory. After the very moving scene, we follow Harry (Daniel Radcliffe) , Ron (Rupert Grint), and Hermione (Emma Watson) around England in their grueling search for Voldemort’s Horocruxes.
David Yates explains the story well in this phenomenon so if you haven’t read the books you should be able to understand, but only if you have seen the other movies.
Harry Potter and The Deathly Hollows : Part 1 is rated Pg-13 for strong violence and adult themes

Music Video Monday. Raise your Glass!
Listen kids, I know my tastes in music is not your taste in music and I know you are all probably thinking, "Pink? Really Mollie?" But this video spoke to me. Listen to the lyrics, ::So raise your glass if you are wrong
In all the right ways
All my underdogs, we will never never be!
Anything but loud
And nitty gritty
Dirty little freaks
Won't you come on, and come on, and
Raise your glass
Just come on and come and
Raise Your Glass!::
In light of all the bullying and negative stuff flying around I liked this song for the sheer fact that it's encouraging you to be different and to embrace it. I think it's something we forget about really easily. Everyone is different and if we weren't life would be SO boring. So watch this video, listen to the lyrics and rock out to the catchy beat and know that whatever kind of weird you are, you are not alone. Rock on Pink!

Music Video Monday (on a Tuesday)
Ok, I know everyone is sick of Mike Posner but I can't help it, I love him. His shit is catchy. At least it's a new song so it will take you a month before you get sick of it.

Halloween Movies
I am a GIANT Halloween junkie. It's my favorite holiday and I decorate and dress up and drive everyone around me insane with Halloween crap. But of course, I am also deeply into Halloween movies. My top movie is "The Nightmare before Christmas"because I can throw it on and watch it non-stop through till Christmas. It's a bi-holiday film and it's wonderful. I also really love "Hocus Pocus" because I have an odd obsession with the Salem witch trials. The only paper I have ever gotten an A+ on was on the Salem witch trials.
Generally, I lean more to the silly, goofy Halloween movies more then the super scary, gruesome stuff. I first watched "Poltergeist" at age 7 and let's just say, it left an impression. This year I have been eying "Paranormal Activity 2" but I have to admit I never saw the first one. I have seen the "Blair Witch Project" and I laughed through the whole thing. So what are you're favorite Halloween movie? Do you need to be scared or just a little spooked?

Music Video Monday: Hold on to you pantaloons, it's about to get preachy up in here!
Ok, so it's been about 3 weeks since I did a Music Video Monday post and I'll be honest with you, it's because right now music videos suck. So this week I, in honor of this Holiday (This Holiday being the one where we celebrate the stupidity of attempting to get anywhere before the invention of the GPS) I pulled out an old one from Rob Thomas. There is a lot of stuff going on in our world right now. War, mudslides, money issues and a LOT of hate is being tossed around and it's no good. I like this music video because it makes me happy and makes me want to spread that happiness so I present it to you in the hopes that it will put you in a good mood and you will in turn, spread your good mood to others like the swine flu. Have a Happy Monday everyone.
If you think that whole post was too cheesy don't worry. My next post is going to rip apart movie marketing industries. You're gonna laugh.

Give this guy an award please
I know everyone is annoyed by this or doesn't understand it but the bottom line is brilliant. For a year, everyone has been wondering what the hell was going on with Joaquin Phoenix and now we finally know it was all a stunt. Many suspected it was but were unable to confirm it but Casey Affleck spilled the beans to the New York Times. When you think about it, the whole thing is pretty amazing and has done more to market the film then any of the trailers. If you want to actually do something insane and base the award system on talent and believability of an actor while he portrays a role, then I think this guy should get an Oscar.

I'm posting this video because I like the song that's sampled. And because I see crap like this and wonder why I'm unemployed and idiots that come up with crap like this aren't...

I've decided that Jon Hamm just needs to be in Everything! (including my pants)
So I missed Music Video Monday because I was out of town. Forgive me. But we all know what takes the cake this week. The opening of the Emmys. Of course I missed the Emmys too because there was no TV where I was. But thanks to Youtube, I have caught myself up and in case you were also out of town or are just a complete loser, here is the best opening of an award show to date. Jon Hamm makes everything better. In fact, I plan to endorse him for President in 2012. Who's with me?

Music Video Monday
Ok, so I'm not crazy about this music video but I am crazy about the song. It's "Secrets" by One Republic. Enjoy!
This is what it looks like when a show jumps the shark...
For those of you who don't know the term, "Jumping the shark" it's the term used to describe when a show has gone too far into the red zone. According to Wikipedia it was a man named Sean J. Connolly who came up with the phrase after the Fonz literally jumped over a shark in a three part "Happy Days" special (video here). This ridiculous act did not end the show but it did kill the show. The shark jump was a sign that things had gone too far, were out of control and the show had just plain lost it's hootspa. Over the years many shows have the one episode that is referred to as the one where they "jumped the shark". Some would say it was the musical episode of Scrubs. Others would say it was when Desperate Housewives opened their season with a 5 year jump after the last season had ended. From this point on whenever anyone asks me the definition of jumping the shark, I will answer with one word: Fairy.
There are many people asking Why, today. Why did Alan Ball do this? Why did the writers at HBO write this? Why didn't the powers the be at HBO stop this? We will never know the answer. Perhaps the brilliant Mr. Ball has a plan. A plan that will make this all ok. And if he does then I will forgive him but right now, it's still too fresh. I'm still looking to the heavens and scratching my head. I read the True Blood books (ok, just the first one but whatever) so I knew the basis of what was suppose to happen. But I trusted Alan Ball to take the series and honestly do it better justice then the author of the books did. For a while it seemed that Ball was on the right track. He saved Lafayette from death (that was suppose to be him in the back of that car) and he ignored Vampire Elvis (Oh yes, Elvis was alive and well and had a appetite for house cats) Alan Ball is still my hero for leaving that out. So last week when Sookie awakes from her coma in a fairy version of Bon Temps Cemetery surrounded by tutu clad hippies, I did one of those epic moments of horrible realization where I actually went out loud, "No....no....NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHY? (insert dramatic sob) WHY!?!" By the time Sunday rolled around I had progressed to the anger stage of my acceptance. This week when Bill tells Sookie of her true identity (Shes a FAIRY!!!) I simply had a small hallucination where I saw the Fonz, Allen Ball along with Sookie and Bill all jump over a man eating shark while doing one of those human triangle things on water skis. It was quite dramatic, the Fonz waved to me and Alan Ball flipped me off.
Let me level with you, I'm an un-employed 27 year old chick with an affinity for vampires and junk TV. I will watch just about anything. I might be totally wrong and in the minority on this entire idea and perhaps True Blood has built up such a following that it can withstand the current stupidity it's undergoing but I stand by what I said and when asked I will say it again. And if I ever meet Alan Ball I will tell him the same. Last night was the night True Blood jumped the shark and as far as shark jumping goes it was one hell of a jump.

This movie TERRORFIES me!!!!
I don't swim in the ocean. I haven't since the age of five. I don't even stand in the water at the beach above my knees. When I was five I watched Jaws for the first time and needles to say, it made an impression. So when I saw this trailer, I thought: "Oh yay, I never liked swimming in lakes anyway..." I can't see this movie though truthfully if I was drunk I think it would be hilarious. On second thought, maybe Ill take a chance. But somebody else see it first and tell me if it's really scary. Ok?

Music Video Monday!
I'm not gonna lie to you, I love obnoxious songs. Super obnoxious. I blast it and rock out just to annoy those around me. So when I saw this music video and heard this song I naturally fell in love. Then I put it on loop and blasted it. So now, I share it with you. The band/group/guys call themselves 3OH!3 and they are thoroughly annoying as can be. But I love them anyway. Happy Music Video Monday!

Music Video Monday!!!
Finally on the right day! I saw this yesterday and it's pretty emotionally charged but the song itself in beautiful. I'm sure the video will resonate with a lot of people. Enjoy!

Just cause you're Awesome, have a cupcake!
I know it's been a million years since we handed out a cupcake. But you know what they say about too much of a good thing. Anywho, the cupcake is back and ready for action and this week the cupcake goes to John C. Reilly. You know who he is, he's that guy from that movie that you love but who's name you cannot remember. He is awesome. He makes you laugh and he can make you cry. He sings. He's like a big over grown man-child who you kinda wish was your uncle instead of the guy that is your uncle. We loved him in Talladega Nights and feared him in Gangs of New York (yeah, that was him). He's been around for over 20 years and if there is a god, he'll be around for 20 more. So here's to you Mr. John C. Reilly, I love you. Have a cupcake!
