I am addicted to Harry Potter.

As I am writing this blog post, Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince is playing through my ears. This has had to be the 3rd time I watched this in a month. Sad, isn't it? And, oddly enough, I have only read the first book. I am trying to get a hold of a boxed, hardcover set of the series, but it will be at least 10 days before I order it. I found it online for $108, and I want to know if you know of a cheaper set. Not used, not on ebay. A new set of hardcover Harry Potter books for less than $108. If so, let me know on my Twitter, or comment on here.

That is about it. I am just trying to blog at LEAST once a day.

Movies and other stuff...

Ok, so I just got back from watching Lion King 3D and it was good. But the problem was: it was converted 3D. Not to say that the movie or the 3D was bad or anything, but the fact that they decide to take a perfectly good, classic film, and bring it back on the big screen, and its in converted 3D? C'mon, that's not right. Even DISNEY is screwing us over in money. First Hollywood, and now Disney. They need to figure out something fast, because a lot of the movies that have been coming out sucked. Especially 2010. But who knows? Maybe the last few months of 2011 will turn out to be good. Maybe we can rely on Happy Feet 2 and The Muppets. Yipee. But there are some good titles coming out the next couple months like: Sherlock Holmes, Immortals, Puss in Boots, and Real Steel. But there may be one movie that will put an end to all happiness when it comes to movies: Twilight. Yeah, good luck movie lovers. Part 1 of... Twilight is coming to you soon. Hooray.

Ok, so enough of the bad stuff, like sparkling "vampires", lets get to the fun stuff. Real Steel: I can't wait to see that. That looks good, but the bad thing is is that the trailer to it is like the entire movie in 2 minutes, not what a trailer is supposed to be. You already knows what happens: the main dude used to be a fighter, now robots fight, he is losing money or something so he has to build a new robot because his old one died or something, he finds a new robot with his son or whoever he is, they work on the robot, the robot becomes one of the best fighter, and they all live happily ever after. That is my guess at what's going to happen in the movie. I still want to see it though, to get all of the missing details in. And who knows? Maybe I am wrong! I hope I am, so I can go it there and not expect it, but the trailer is honestly the movie in 2 minutes.

What about Immortals? This movie almost looks like 300 without the fun "man" stuff, if ya know what I mean. This movie looks extremely good, mostly because I love Greek Mythology. I find it interesting, probably because I love the Percy Jackson series! Anyways, this movie looks like a fun action movie with greek mythology and gods and all that good stuff. Can't wait to see it!

"Shrek 1/2" or "Puss in Boots" Remember how great Lion King 1 and 2 was? My favorite disney animations there are. But then they went and created Lion King 1/2, which featured Timone and Pumba's past, and what they were doing throughout the movie, and made everything connect. I didn't really like how they did that, to make the side characters' own movie like that, it just wasn't right to me. But know they are making Puss in Boots, or as I like to call it "Shrek 1/2" mostly because they are doing around the same thing as Disney did with Lion King. A side character's own movie. But this looks much better than Lion King 1/2 did, mostly because it doesn't involve Shrek at all, and just the side character. And I have always wondered while I was watching Shrek 2, what was Puss's story? Why did he end up there? Huh? So hopefully this movie will answer some of those questions. Also, it looks pretty funny.

Ok, so in conclusion to my longest blog post to date, I would like to say what movie I am looking forward to most in 2012, which is a toss up between The Avengers and The Dark Knight Rises. Ok, that is it! Make sure to go to my youtube channel and podcast! (Streamcast and YT Channel is Streamstudios)
