Now Playing: The Mummy!
Alright, I'm hugely into movies. I think I like imaginary worlds better than reality. I currently have
The Mummy in my VCR and
Ever After in my DVD player. I play both of them constantly, though I'm thinking of changing out
The Mummy for
Emperor's New Groove. But, recently, I've seen the awesome movie of
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. It's great. I love this newer, slightly twisted version better than the old, happy-cheery version. I can't wait for it to come out on DVD.
I'm spending much time on HEX these days. I blame it completely on the fact that the new Harry Potter book just came out and the new movie is coming out in November. I've fallen back into the Harry Potter fanaticism (new word!) that I had forgotten for six months. I'm satisfied with the new book. I didn't read spoilers or fanfics so it wasn't spoiled or less than what I was expecting this time. The death of...well, I'm not gonna say...wasn't too surprising for me. I knew it had to happen. It was just the process of the death that got to me. I mean, it was well-written. It made me cry and I was sad for at least a good hour after that. (Unfortunately, I had to go to work, so the world of Harry Potter was forced out of my mind.) Now, I'm eagerly anticipating the new movie. I will, no doubt, be disappointed because of the many cuts I know have occurred. But, that's ok. It's to be expected, after all.
While I'm in somewhat the mind of books, I'm also eagerly awaiting the release of
Eldest, the second book in the series after
Eragon. They're by Christopher Paolini. True, they are also kinda on the kiddy side of the genre spectrum, but it's still good. I loved the first one and I'm bouncing in excitement just thinking about the second one. He's gonna be in a city somewhat near me in September and my friend and I want to go get our books signed.
I'm a dork, I know.
