Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1

My Rating: 5 stars I have been waiting three years for this movie, even though it is only half of the whole. But let me tell you, it was definitely worth the wait. My friends and I all went to the midnight showing of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1. We were ready […]

The Wizarding World of Harry Potter

On November 3rd, 2010 I had the amazing privilege to go to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Orlando, Florida. I felt like I had stepped into one of J.K. Rowling’s books. With Hogwarts castle off in the distance, Hogsmeade winds its way toward the school with cobble-stoned and store-lined streets. Stores like Honeyduke’s, […]

Vampires Suck

My Rating: 2 stars Vampires Suck TrailerWhen I first walked into the movie theater to see Vampires Suck, I was actually excited. I was ready to see a funny comedy that bashed Twilight and the entire vampire craze. Too bad that didn’t happen. All the hype for Vampires Suck made the movie seem so much […]

The Lightning Theif Movie

My Rating: 2-3 stars Where do I start on this movie? I cannot believe Chris Columbus, who directed Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, directed this movie. I am so surprised. I first saw this movie without reading the book, and I thought it was pretty good. But now that I’ve read the book, I […]

Coraline Movie

My Rating: 4 stars I was really interested to see how this book was brought to life in this movie. I thought it was pretty good. Dakota Fanning did the voice for Coraline. I really thought it was interesting how the director, Henry Selick, made Coraline a kind of animated claymation movie. There were only […]

The Twilight Saga: Eclipse Movie

My Rating: 4 stars As I’m sure you all know the next movie to the Twilight Saga, “Eclipse”, came out today, June 30th. And I was lucky enough to be able to see it on the first day it came out. This movie was really good, better than I thought it would be. I didn’t […]

Yes, children, today is the day. Today is the day that all the potterheads have been waiting for. Today, June 18th, 2010, The Wizarding World of Harry Potter was opened in Orlando, Florida. Is anyone as excited as I am?!?!? I cannot wait to go, which I believe I have said before in another post. […]
