Funny People
I just finished watching Funny People.
I really liked it.
It wasn't at all like I had expected it to be. Which is pleasant. I think that when a movie is unexpected it is a pleasant surprise. Who likes predictability? What is the entertainment in that?
Well this movie was far from predictable.
I would most def recommend it to a friend.
NOT family friendly though. It's rated R for a reason people, let's not forget that!
Seth Rogan looks HAWT, but would look better without the weird sideburns. If he had just made them look less triangular is all I'm saying.
I'm also not sure of how I feel about him so skinny. I like my men meaty. You know fleshy and what not.
Adam Sandler was awesome. Pretty delicious if you ask me. I had a MAD crush on him in Middle school. Not your typical middle school crush, but hey that's me for ya.
Oh and Jonah. My love. This is by far my fave Jonah. So yummy.
Entertainment OVERLOAD!
{If there is such a thing...}
There is SO many awesome movies and books coming out over the next few months! It's incredible!
{book} Blackdagger Brotherhood-Lover Mine
Oh, I didn't think I would love this series as much as I do. It took a few chapters to really get into it, but once I was hooked, I sped through the entire serious SO fast! The newest book in the series, Lover Mine was due out this month. {I thought it was due to release last week, but have been unable to find it, and have seen that the release may be delayed?}
{movie} Date Night
Tina Fey and Steve Carell in a movie together?! Oh my darn it. I LOVE them. Okay, so this came out the 9th, but I have NOT yet been able to see it. It looks AWESOME though.
{book} Vampire Academy- Spirit Bound
This is scheduled to release May 18th! Another series that I have been sucked in to! The last book, "Blood Promise" left me on the edge of my seat, so the 5th book, "Spirit Bound" seems to be taking FOREVER to release! I'm thinking of pre-ordering mine. Yes I'm a nerd.
{movie} A Nightmare On Elm Street
Obviously, a remake of the original, this movie is premiering April 30th! This is definitely something I am wanting to see the night it premieres! I'm hoping to get a crowd together to accompany me. Definitely not something I would want to see alone. lol
{book} Sookie Stackhouse Series-Dead in the Family
I'm not sure the exact day, but the newest Sookie book is coming next month as well! One of my FAVE series of all time, I am on eggshells waiting for this book!
and of course, we all know:
{movie} Eclipse
The third movie in the Twilight Saga is set to premier June 30th. I am on an email list awaiting to hear as soon as the tickets are available for pre-order. I will be there at midnight screaming along with all of the other fans just like I was with the other two.

Confessions of a Photog Nazi 1-3
#1 For serious?!
While everyone drools over Orlando Bloom, Matthew McConaughey, Patrick Dempsey, and all the other six-pack flaunting hotties, I choose to drool over a totally different crowd of gentlemen. In fact if you googled "Hottest Male Actors" I don't think you would find any of my celeb-crushes on the lists. Granted I did see Brad Pitt, and James Franco on the list. However I only find Brad's rough and dirty "Tyler Durden", and Franco's super stoned "Dale Denton" to be Photog Nazi drool-worthy. So here's a peek at the super-yummy menu of hunky deliciousness:
#2 Is my dork showing?
Yes I think it is. I am a complete Twilight/Harry Potter fanatic. So much so that the only movie premieres I have ever been to would be Twilight, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, and New Moon. Not only did I attend the premiere, but I went to all three midnight showings. Yes I was a ticket release watching, early ticket buying, standing in line forever, to see a movie based on a children's book type of freak. For New Moon, I even downloaded a New Moon theme for my blackberry and wore a Team Jacob shirt. It's horrible. You don't even want to know the types of Twilight paraphernalia I own. It would put sixteen year old girls to shame. There are few things I get excited about in life and among new super-cool vacuums, I get excited about Twilight and Harry Potter. Oh and of course anything zombie…but you know that's a whole other confession.
#3 I <3 my vacuum
It is the Cadillac of vacuums. Not quite the Bentley of vacuums the way the ever-so-amazing Kirby is, but everyone loves a good Cadi. I have a Kenmore Progressive and this thing is a-ma-zing. While I have pined over a Kirby for years, and probably will for years to come, I am head over heels for my Kenmore. When the inevitable life of my 8 year old Dirt Devil hand-me-down came to an end I knew we would have to get something good. Something that had POWER, and could get the job done! First we bought a $75 vacuum of some sort from Target. It sucked. But not the way vacuums should. It sucked as in it was HORRIBLE. It came with one of those duster wand things that broke within DAYS, and it was bagless and emptying it was so nasty. Not only that, but it clogged every.single.time that we used it. I hated that thing with a passion. After some long, LONG time doing research on the web I discovered the Kenmore progressive. There was a little sticker shock at the price, but it was nowhere near the tag on a Kirby or Dyson, AND we waited and got it on sale. Let me tell you, it was one of the BEST purchases we have made. I love my vacuum! It sucks like you wouldn't believe, and purrs like a little baby kitten. It's so quiet that I can talk on the phone while it runs. And get this, it TELLS you when the spot you are vacuuming is clean!!! It has a magical little dirt sensor that will turn green once the area is clean. And no, it's not on a timer that turns green after a certain amount of time vacuuming. That sucker literally knows when it's clean! If you vacuum a "red" spot it will turn orange, than yellow, than green when it's clean. When you move to a new red spot, and move back to the clean spot it will turn green to let you know it's already clean! It's amazing…it's never clogged on us before, it's beltless so there's no worry of having to replace a belt, and it has a neat little bag that I just throw away without dumping dust and yuckiness into a garbage can just for it to poof back up into my face. So yea, I confess, I love my vacuum!

I FINALLY went to see Avatar today! I say FINALLY as though it's been a long time coming, even though it's only been in theaters for 8 days! I honestly feel like one of the last one's to see it though!
Let me tell you, I really wish I had seen it in 3D. The special effects were spectacular, and the scenery was just breathtakingly beautiful. It had a beautiful story, although slightly reminiscent of Disney's Pocahontas. Seriously, I was thinking of Pocahontas and John Smith throughout most of the movie! lol
I really, REALLY recommend seeing it if you haven't seen it already. And I REALLY recommend seeing it in 3D. I'm really considering going back to see it in 3D while it's still in theaters. It's definitely a movie that you want to see on the big screen. I don't think seeing it on a television for the first time would do it justice.
But yea, definitely loved the Avatar. It will be added to the DVD collection one day. :0)
You can find the official Avatar movie website HERE.
