Sea of Monsters Review
The sequel to 2010’s Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief was a long time coming. The Sea of Monsters is an action-packed adventure that is fun for the whole family, that is, if your entire family is twelve years old. Yeah, it’s a kids movie, like the first one was, but it’s still fun to see the characters return to the big screen, along with a few new additions. Read on to find out more about the movie while I break it down.
The Host Review
Everyone’s heard of Twilight, the supernatural teen romance series from author Stephenie Meyer. Well, it’s no surprise that after the success of that series, Hollywood would try to adapt another of Ms. Meyer’s works for the big screen. The Host is a novel published just after the last Twilight novel Breaking Dawn, and thankfully it’s only a stand-alone novel, not a series. So how did The Host turn out as a film? Is this a better lovestory than Twilight? Does the main character have more facial expressions than Kristen Stewart?
RIPD Review
This summer has certainly had a lot of blockbusters, and it’s not over yet. I can hardly keep up with them all. Of all the movies I’ve seen so far this year, RIPD is not the worst one, although not the best either. RIPD is a supernatural comedic action flick with a bit of romance thrown in, and is overall an enjoyable film to watch. So what’s it all about anyway?
Great Soundtrack Composers: Randy Newman
As stated in my blog bio, I love listening to movie soundtracks; in fact it’s probably my number one music genre. There’s a long list of soundtrack composers which I’m a fan of, and so I thought I’d start writing blog posts on these composers. In honor of the recently released Monsters University, I’ve decided to write this one on Randy Newman.
Monsters University Review
Pixar has come a long way since Toy Story. They excel in creating lovable characters and heartwarming stories that entertain children and adults of all ages. As their first ever prequel, Monsters University is a great addition to the Pixar résumé, and it reminded me why I love Pixar films. It was great to see Mike and Sully back on the silver screen for another fun-filled adventure.
Introduction/background
Welcome to our little piece of the internets. Since we just threw this blog together recently, and I doubt many of our readers will know all of us, I thought it would be a good idea to give a little background about all of our lovely authors for the blog.
The idea for this blog is to be able to have all of us come here to talk about all the stuff we love: video games, movies, books, comics, TV shows, or any other random stuff that comes to our heads! I got a small group of some of my close friends together who thought that this could be a fun idea, so let's have a few introductions so everyone knows each other!
