A long time later...

It has been a long time since I did a review. The reason? I am pregnant with child number two and this blog was not meant to be about my children. I purposefully wanted not to blog about family life. Perhaps I will in the future but for now, no. But sadly when I am pregnant there isn't much else to talk about. I am a terrible pregnant person who spends a lot of time kneeling before the porcelain throne. I do watch a lot of tv and movies but I have not felt like reviewing them.

I cannot go over the movies and games I played (though I haven't been playing much) during this time. Or at least not all of them because some of it is a haze...


I went to Captain America: the First Avenger, I remember that. I enjoyed it. Acting was good and the storyline was easy to follow. I've never read much about Captain America and seeing him as an American Patriotic figure. I enjoyed it more than Thor. I enjoyed Thor but afterwards felt parts of the movie were lacking. I did not feel this with Captain America. I also was excited to see the teaser trailer at the end for The Avengers. Another Batman and this sequel next year? Sounds good to me.

Limitless: A different story with an ending I did not expect. I liked that. The movie got surprisingly violent and graphic near the end. If you don't like blood, dismembered body parts, and violence, I would strongly suggest you don't watch this show.

How to Train your Dragon: Yes, it took me this long to see this one. I loved it and after renting it bought it on blu-ray. Need I say more? The only thing I don't understand is how people could think it was graphically better than Legend of the Guardians. Watching it I didn't think "crappy graphics" by any means but I never got the "wow" feeling I got from LotG concerning the graphics. I will probably watch the sequel to this one.

Phantom of the Opera: I own this one but haven't watched it in a while. Still a beautiful movie. One of those movies that make me wish It didn't end, or that i could step into it, or something. Of course, I still think she should have stayed with the twisted yet wonderful Phantom.

I have this tickle in my brain that I went to another movie in the theaters... but as I am drawing a blank I guess I will bring this catch-up post to a close. Hopefully it won't be so long before another.
