Last Thursday I went with Sherri, Sarah Jo, and Eliot to see The Hunger Games at midnight. I'd never seen more people in Loews other than the Deathly Hallows Part 2 midnight premiere. People were dressed up or wearing THG t-shirts and every other word out of someone's mouth was Peeta. It was lovely suddenly realizing how big The Hunger Games really is.
Unfortunately we were sitting pretty close to the front, but it wasn't so close that my neck hurt. The trailers they showed were pretty great. I laughed at the Breaking Dawn trailer, even though I'm totally going to see it. Then I got really excited about Snow White and the Huntsman, and after that I actually cried at the Prometheus trailer. I've only seen Alien once, but that movie looks foiiine.
The Hunger Games movie was amazing of course. I wrote a "review" containing all my feelings here. It was better than I expected. There were just a few things I wish were in it, but movies will never be exactly the same as books.
The past week since then has been filled with me listening to The Hunger Games soundtrack multiple times, and tumbling millions of pictures/videos of Jennifer Lawrence just like everyone else on the internet. It's pretty wonderful.
Besides that, school, and work, I've watched a few new movies and I read a book. The movies included Elsewhere (meh), Restraint (Meehehhhh...I liked it whaaat), The Burning Plain (not bad), The Poker House (CRYING ALWAYS), and 2:37, which left me an emotional wreck. I'm planning on watching it again to get the full effect now that I know what's going on. I'd recommend it to...um...everyone. Except kids. Anyway, I basically watched a lot of movies starring J-Law and Teresa Palmer.
I also read Divergent by Veronica Roth. I saw it at WalMart for like $9, so I grabbed it. It kind of freaked me out because I had no idea which faction I'd choose if I had to. Dauntless sounds fun but I think I'd be one of those people who would end up dying within the first 10 minutes. I cried at the end and then found out it's becoming a movie, and the second book comes out soon! So, yay to that.
OH and Skins ended on Monday. I was a sobbing mess. But I really loved it. Man I hate when good shows end. ;__;
Not much else has happened; I just thought I'd update while I had some time.
Later alligatorssss.
