Water For Elephants Movie Trailer Official (HD)

ll


This is it guys!!! The moment we have been waiting for!!! 

Here is the first look into Water For Elephants, Robert Pattinson's next big movie. Due in theaters on April 15, 2011 (Tax Day), it also stars Reese Witherspoon and Christoph Waltz and is taken from the blockbuster book by the same name. 

I have read the book and will read it again as it gets closer! The story is very easy to read and is very catching as well. It didn't take me long to get accustom to reading the name "Jacob" instead of "Edward" LOL. 

So enjoy and watch it over and over and over and over and over... Okay you get my drift!!

What a Freaking Dream Night!!!!!!

Okay, I am still weak in the knees and a little light headed and amazed! 

What am I talking about, you asked? 

I got a once in a life time opportunity only one can DREAM of!!! And this is what happened!

A couple of months ago, I found out through tweeter that Kristen Stewart's little indie project, Welcome to the Riley's was going to open the New Orleans Film Festival and I jumped! I went all out and bought an all access pass which granted me a lot of extras. I also found some other "local ladies" to go with and share this wonderful experience!!!

So, here it is, October 15, I get up like any other day and realize that today is the DAY!!! I quickly clean my house, get all four kids out the door and off to school, shower, dress, make sure I have money, credit cards, ID, emails and my little Rob Porn book and sharpie!! (why? well there were reports of Robsten in town. I bought it with me just in case!)

Anyhoo, never have experiencing anything like a film fest and being a virgin at that, I decided to check out the line for tickets at 9:15 that morning, 1 chick... That was it! By the time the Film Society got there and set up, I was second in line and received my all access pass and my two Welcome to the Riley's tickets!!!! 

After that, my other girl friends who were sharing this experienced, showed up and got their tickets as well! In all there was eight of us! Holding our tickets dear to our hearts, we went into New Orleans and grabbed some lunch at a great bar called Yo Momma's. We ended up going upstairs and eating at the bar. Drinks and the best damn hamburgers ever at 1pm on a Friday, while every one else is WORKING!!! 

As we drank, we started to talk about fan fics and movies and books. And then we saw it!!! 

We couldn't stop laughing... a riding crop, a flogger, dusters and more! Red lights and chains... it could only be one thing??? Fifty's Playroom of Pain!! 

So, we eat, laugh and drink and then head back to one of the girl's hotel room, to freshen up and grab a cab down to the Prytania. We got there at around 4 and the people there were like "you guys are really really early" We know! 

After waiting for about two hours, we took our place in line. I got to go in first since I had an all access pass and saved our seats. The Prytania is the oldest, single screen theater in New Orleans. It is not stadium style, it's flat and there is a balcony.


We waited patiently, watched the Mayor of New Orleans meet and great people and then... there he was, Jake Scott, Director of Welcome to the Riley's. His father is Ridley Scott, director of Blade Runner and Alien, and his uncle is Tony Scott, director of Top Gun and Man on Fire. They both produced WTTR. 

He gives a brief introduction and then the movie starts and then....

OMG This movie is amazing. James Gandolfini and Melissa Leo are entertaining as husband and wife still dealing with the death of their only daughter. On a convention trip to New Orleans, Gandolfini's character Doug Riley, meets Kristen Stewart's character Mallory, who strips for a living and has a really, bad potty mouth! Doug finds himself seeing his daughter through Mallory and takes it upon himself to not only clean her house but her up as well. 

Leo's Lois, has never left the house since the death. As her sister points out, played by Ally Sheedy for like 15 seconds, she needs to get out and get her own damn paper. Lois decides to join her husband in New Orleans and drives allllllll the way from Indy to New Orleans for the first time in YEARS! Lets just say that is the comic performance!!! While she is driving, my home town of LaPlace was featured, as Leo's character drove down the interstate by the weigh stations!! I freaked out when I saw that!!

All three give an outstanding performance, even Stewart. If we figured out correctly, she made this movie right after filming Twilight and she was only 18 at the time!!! Amazing talent on her part!!! 

So after the movie, we all got to sit in on the Q&A with Mr. Scott!! He spoke about how the movie was made, introduced some local cast and crew members, explained his thought process and how it was working with Leo, James and Kristen! He even performed a little dance number... LOL 

And as we were walking out, I pulled our girls along with me and this is what happened.........

That's me!!! To the right of Director Jake Scott!! He looks just like his dad!!  We also met the couple whose house was used in Mandeville, which is across the lake from New Orleans and the lady that portray the hair dresser in one scene with Leo! SURREAL!!!!

And that was it! That was my FREAKING DREAM NIGHT! I don't think I will EVER have that opportunity EVER again!!!

What's with Baton Rouge all of a sudden??

So... Looks like Baton Rouge will become the mecca of Vampires this fall!!

Looking around on tweeter this morning... I found this lovely little tidbit about two "vampires" and just can't hold it in any more!!!

Stephen Moyer, who plays Vampire Bill, in HBO's hugely popular series True Blood will start production on a new movie "The Big Valley" in Baton Rouge this fall. According to my IMDb app, the cast is HUGE!! Richard Dreyfuss, Aidan Quinn, Jessica Lange, Lee Majors and Bruce Dern.... hmmmmm

Alexander Skarsgard, who plays Vampire Eric, in True Blood as well, will start production on "Battleship" based off of the game... You know the one... What's with the toys becoming movies?? Any hoo... Unfortunate, I see BOMB, written all over this movie with the likes of Rihanna, Taylor Kitsch and Tom Arnold listed as additional cast members....

And don't forget... Breaking Dawn starts production in the fall as well. Here are a couple of websites that have some information for ya, just in case you decide to visit my neck of the woods this fall! And yes, I finally found the sound stage in Baton Rouge and will take a little road trip to get comfortable with the area!! LOL

My Eclipse Movie Review

So, saw it at midnight, then went back that Saturday and saw it in IMAX.

So here's my review.... Go see it in IMAX!!!!


LMAO.... okay, okay.... here goes!

Liked how it started, with Riley and all. Loved the first Meadow Scene, Edward was all frisky! But I also noticed something both times, the movie clips quickly until the final showdown. I thought it was just me at midnight, but when I saw it again Saturday, it still did the same but slower.

I never thought of Eclipse as "The Dark Book", so I was worried when Slade was picked as Director but let me just say... HE DID AN AMAZING JOB WITH ECLIPSE!!!!

The wolves looked more animal like, thinner, but still kept their colors. The Cullens, the Newborns, Riley and Jane and company looked amazing. There was still some makeup problems, with Rosalie and What the hell is up with Jasper's freaking HAIR!!!!!

I loved Rosalie's flashback and Jasper's as well. I thought it was a nice touch to add, for those who have never read the book. Gives you an idea of their characters and how "they came to be"! However, as my sister pointed out, in the book, Rosalie comes to Bella, not Bella coming to Rosalie. I think Rosenberg should have kept true to the book here, as it sets up certain scenes in Breaking Dawn.

I was a little upset about the "Switzerland" speech. It's not that I wanted it word for word, but I think with Bella just blurting out "I'm Switzerland" was point less. Again, if you didn't read the books you were lost here.

Loved the Cullens and wolves chasing Victoria. I loved how Emmett got pissed when she blew him off and when he and Paul stared each other down!

Graduation scene was okay but let me get this straight -

Alice and Edward have the same last name, right? Cullen and Jasper's supposed twin is Rosalie and their last name is Hale.... So, Alice and Edward should have sat together and if you read the books.... Jasper, Rosalie and Emmett graduated in New Moon. Made ya think???

So, I have saved the best for last, Tent, Leg Hitch and fighting scenes.

The "Leg Hitch/Proposal" went by way too damn fast. But it was EPIC!

The "Tent Scene", which I found myself sitting on the edge of my seat, was okay... I don't know, there was something missing. I also was excepting to see Jacob get thrown across the tent as well. I think that that would have made that scene better than the Proposal!!!

The fighting was speculator! I love watching the Cullen's rip people apart. Jasper was all over Alice, trying to protect her, but she held her own. The wolves coming in was awesome!

Now, Edward and Victoria's fight was a little staged, I found. Plus, Bella spends the entire time up against the wall of rock with Seth and Riley to one side and Edward and Victoria to the other, in the book. Edward would have NEVER pulled her along for that ride. His job is to protect her, not put her in harms way.

Now onto the music. The Soundtrack has some amazing artist on it but one particular song didn't make the movie, which by the way surprised the hell out of me. The Florence + The Machine song was used during the credits. I really had hoped that they would have used it when Jacob was carrying her to the "camping site".

The Sia song, My Love, was used in the most beautiful scene, the "Leg Hitch/Proposal". I had wrote that down a long time ago and that would make more sense since it's a love song! Gives me chills every time I listen to it!!!

As for the score, not that impressed. I have heard some of Shore's scores before. (I own the LOTR's scores). But something was missing. The pieces are toooooo short and very choppy. Nothing like New Moon's score, which for me, is still one of the best one! However, after downloading it and listening to it Tuesday morning, I started on the bonus tracks first, "Wedding Plans" and I cried. That is the ending song of the movie. So, as it played out on the BIG Screen, I cried like a big ole baby!!!

In all, the anticipation was well worth it. Loved that I got more Edward in this one. Slade did a marvelous job and should be proud of his work!!

My Eclipse Movie Experience

So, Tuesday June 29th, started off just like any other day for me. I got up at the ass crack of dawn to clean, got the babies off to daycare, went to Barnes and Nobles to pick up three production books and another copy of Eclipse for a book project, then to Micheal's for some supplies for said book.

Then I returned home to find Remember Me on, I had two extra girls with me that day, and OF COURSE I watched it... Wall Sex.... hmmmm....

Anyhoo, we left around 1:30 to head out to Elmwood to see what kind of line there was. We decided, based off our experience last year, that the TRIPLE FEATURE was the best way to go. We arrived around 2:45pm but had to wait about 15 minutes because it was raining Zebra's and Goats!!!

The line wasn't long, so we sat and waited. The girls, including my daughter, went into the theater's game room and didn't bother me one bit! They finally moved us around 5pm into our theater and we got these really cool looking laynards with a $10 concession card!!

So Twilight started at 6:30pm, the same time Nancy's flight landed. She arrived around 7 ish and finished Twilight with us. New Moon started on time, at 9pm, I missed most of it, but did get back when Bella saved Edward... Best Damn Part!! LOL

So, I stepped out in between our 45 minute break before Eclipse started. Now, the theater that we were at holds 20 screens, one of those being an IMAX screen. And yes, they did offer that zany 3 am IMAX screening Wednesday morning!!! All screens were sold out and even at 11;30, there were still people trying to get in, the line wrapped around the building!!

Eclipse starts about 20 minutes after midnight, because of previews, and I did not leave my seat!!! I was memorized the entire time!!! I laughed. I cried. I clapped when Edward put the ring on. I yelled when Jacob showed up with out his shirt on! (I am Team Edward, until... Jacob takes his shirt off!) And yes, I was the one singing the Metric and Florence + The Machine song as the credits rolled!!!

Then I went home and took a "nap" and started to plan Nancy's vacation!!!

Well there you go... Next... MOVIE REVIEW!!!

Eclipse Movie Reviews

As a "Special 100 Blog Post" I wanted your reviews for Eclipse!!!

Even through I only got a few, I am very, very, very, honored that you have sent them in!!

So with out further ado.... Here are some reviews from my Tweeter Friends!!!

@lluveamc4ever :

.... " Amazing. I loved all of it. The Rosalie flashback was awesome. And the Jasper one. And when Jasper and Alice kissed, I was like that's hot. And the bed room scene with Edward and Bella was amazing. ... The fight scenes were awesome. I loved the action. ... The tent scene was awesome but should have had the part when Jacob rolled onto Bella and Edward and Jacob almost got into a fight. It would have been epic. The movie was amazing and I will be going to see it again."

@twifessions:

I will say I enjoyed Eclipse much more the second time around. I wish we didn't have to wait so long for Breaking Dawn. Here were my random thoughts while watching.

1. Shouldn't Angela have been the valedictorian instead of Jessica? I mean Jessica is cool and all but she doesn't strike me as the brightest crayon in the box, I'm just saying.

2. Why was Jasper sitting next to Alice during the graduation ceremony? If he and Rosalie are supposed to be twins and their last name is Hale, then shouldn't they be sitting next to each other? (Oh snap wait a second they lightbulb just went off in my head, Rosalie had already graduated, duh! Lmao) Anways Jasper should have been sitting with the H names.

3. Speaking of Rosalie, I would have went vampire viscous on Royce King's ass too if that happened to me.

4. Bree, damn girl your vampire life sucked. *shakes head*

5. Where is the world's biggest bottle of ketchup? I'll have to Google it later.

6. The look on Jasper's face when he says, "Never turn your back on your opponent" was hilarious.

7. I don't know what it is, but Billy Black is the man. He has like wheelchair swagger or something.

Cons:

I loved the back stories and was so glad they were included in the movie, but I felt they were cut short. Granted everything can't be included in the movie but still I felt the stories were essential to understanding the movie and book more. Hopefully they will be extended scenes on the dvd.

I wanted to see more of Bella with her human friends. It was like blink and you miss them. Speaking of the human friends, Eric what was up with that hair of yours?

How was Bree able to stand that close to Bella in the clearing? In the book someone has to stand between the two and she was on the ground in agony cause of her thirst. I just would have thought that point would have been clearer in the movie.

Pros:

The Cullens were back in this movie. Don't get me wrong I love the wolf pack (Not Jacob necessarily) but the Cullens are my homies. They kicked major ass in this movie. I was watching the fights and thinking oh snap I'm totally gonna take Tae Kwon Do so I can do that shiz. Is it Tae Kwon do or something else? Does it really matter cause they still owned that movie.

Julia Jones was the perfect Leah, she definitely has the attitude.

The wolves looked much better in this movie.

The bad vamps looked awesome, too bad they didn't last long. I definitely had a different perspective of them after reading Bree Tanner.

Thanks for all who participated! I really loved the support!!!

So, there ya go.... Now onto to MINE!!!! LOL

Breaking Dawn in Louisiana?

500 and something days is a very, very, very long time...

Too darn long for me to wait around for Breaking Dawn!! I am going to go NUTS I tell ya!!

Breaking Dawn just happens to be my favorite book in the series, with Eclipse following closely behind.

So, with all the buzz after we got a director, a release date (November 18, 2011) and that the movie would be split into two, then came the rumors of production...

Rumors are spreading that Summit wants to film here in Louisiana, mostly because of tax credits the state gives to production companies for filming here.

Well, here ya go... Shreveport, Baton Rouge and New Orleans are in the running for Summit. It will suck if production happens in Shreveport, as it's too far for me, Baton Rouge is an hour away and New Orleans is just a hop skip and a jump for me!!!!!

I've included an article about all this.... My hopes are still set high for this to happen, but I am also very, very, very, doubtful it will....

Enjoy!!!
