Top 10 TV Shows of 2013

Hey hey!!! I'm back with my top ten favorite tv shows of 2013!! Now these are all opinions so if you don't agree with them, sound off in the comments below. This may contain spoilers!!!

Coming in at number 10 is.... Ravenswood!!!

Ravenswood is a new tv show that has just come out in the Fall of 2013. It's a show that I really didn't think I would check out but it premiered after the fall Pretty Little Liars special so I figured I'd check it out. Honestly I like the show but it's not one of my favorites. I watch it on Hulu when I have time. Obviously I love Caleb and I really like Miranda. The others... I'm not a huge fan of them. I think Luke is super annoying and he's one of those characters that wants to ignore everything that's going on. Olivia just rubs me the wrong way and Remy is alright sometimes but she lets Luke control too much of her life. The only reason I'm still watching this show is because I am interested in the whole curse and I want to see how Miranda and Caleb end up together now that Miranda is dead.

Number 9 is.... Twisted!!!

When Twisted trailers first played on ABC Family, I was intrigued. The storyline seemed very interesting and I knew Avan Jogia from Victorious so I checked it out. The show was very interesting in the beginning. I loved Danny and Jo from the first episode and Lacey and Rico grew on me. All the characters were interesting people to get to know including the parents who in teen shows are usually barely in it or are the antagonists but in Twisted had just the same amount of secrets as the kids. As the season progressed, though, nothing new happened. Every episode consisted of the same problems and nothing was solved so I slowly began to lose interest. I originally shipped Danny and Jo but as the season progressed I didn't really care too much. The midseason finale however was really good and it recaptured my attention which is why Twisted comes in at number 9! Click here to see all my Twisted posts!

Number 8 is .... Melissa and Joey!!!

Melissa and Joey is a show that is completely different from all of the other shows I enjoy. Normally I'm a huge drama and supernatural tv show lover and comedies sometimes get boring. I enjoy when a show has a storyline that continues in each episode and comedies usually hint at the same storyline but most of the time, each episode is a standalone. However, once in a while a comedy catches my attention and Melissa and Joey is that comedy. The characters are fun to watch and the one-liners are hilarious. The show is not cheesy or over-the-top but just perfect. I really got hooked after the season finale when Melissa and Joey finally hooked-up and I want to see where this storyline goes!

Number 7 is ... Witches of East End

I talked about this show during my fall 2013 tv line-up and at that time I said that Witches of East End would slowly grow on me and let me say, that is completely true!!! I love this show!!! I love every character on this show except for the villains of course and Dash. I love the story-lines! The spells! The drama! I had been waiting since episode one for Freya to chose Killian and she finally did in the season finale! I can't wait until the new season arrives! I loved the season finale with the door to Asgard opening and the twist where Dash and Killian get their magic back and Dash hurts Killian!! I'm excited to see where this goes. Click here for all my Witches of East End posts.

Number 6 is ... The Vampire Diaries

I bet you're surprised to see this show so low on the list of my favorite shows. After all I did a raving post at the end of summer on how much I was addicted to TVD. The truth is.... after the Originals left the cast, the show just dropped for me. Not only were my favorite characters gone, but the storyline just got a lot more boring. I mean I really enjoyed the Silas angle but this new Augustine society thing just got a little boring. Elena, for some reason, is driving me up a wall and she is the main focus of every episode. The show is reverting back to season 1 for me. Like the entire focus is on the love triangle. Matt is barely there. Jeremy and Bonnie are only in a few episodes. Caroline doesn't even appear in half the episodes and if she does, it's only to throw a party. She wasn't even on the mid-season finale!!! But it's still high up on my list because I binge-watched every episode of TVD and I really enjoyed it up to this fall. Click here to see all my Vampire Diaries posts.

Number 5 is ... Pretty Little Liars!!!

When this show first came out, I was in love with it! It was super interesting and I had never seen anything like this. I even tried to read the books but that was a joke and I regretted it. Season 1 and 2 were incredible, season 3 was good but season 4 is kind of dragging. I didn't really like the story lines that were being used. Soon enough it was replaced with some new shows that seemed better to me. Just recently though, it started to get more interesting. Ali is still alive and Ezra is A? They suddenly got my attention again! 

Number 4 is .... The Fosters!!!

This is another new show that came out this summer and I'm sure you expected it to be on my list! I loved the idea of the Fosters and although the show started out slow, it got much much better! I love Callie and Brandon and Stef and Lena and Jesus and Wyatt! The characters have so many layers and the story-lines are full of drama but fun to watch. At one point in the season, Stef was shot by Jesus and Mariana's biological mom and was in the hospital. I was on the edge of my seat!!! The midseason finale ended with Callie and Brandon finally kissing and Callie running away with Wyatt. The show's incredible! The drama! The suspense! The family! The romance! It has everything I like in a show! Click here to see all my Fosters posts.

Number 3 is.... Agents of Shield!!!

I love love love this show as you all probs know. I seriously love this show. I was hesitant at first because I didn't know how much I would love these new agents after getting to know some of them in the Avengers but Marvel definitely knows how to make a great show. The show is full of drama yet is funny to watch. All of the characters are all multi-dimensional and lovable. The most recent episode was incredible and kept me on the edge of my seat! I couldn't believe the ending! The story-lines are interesting and although each episode has a separate story, there is still an overarching story-line and they still mention what happened in previous episodes! Click here to see all my Agents of SHIELD posts!

Coming in at number 2 is.... Reign!!!

Sigh. What can I say about Reign that describes exactly how much I loooove this show? The characters! The idea of the show! The creativity! The CHARACTERS! The show is super creative. I love period pieces so when I heard of this show, I was super pumped for it. And when I watched it, I was not disappointed. The first episode was kind of dull but it picked up and flew off!!!! From seeing how royals act to the romance between Francis and Mary to the friendship between Mary and ladies to the affair Kenna is having with the king. I love every bit of it. It is having trouble with ratings but I don't know why! In just the midseason finale, one of Mary's ladies died, Diane and Bash were run out of the castle and Mary learns of the prophecy!!! If you don't watch this show, you're missing so much! Click here to see all my Reign posts!

And as probably expected, number 1 is... The Originals!!!

Sorry. This is a copout. There was no competition as to who was number one!!! I've already ranted and raved at how much I love this show and Klaus. So here we go again! I love the theme of this show. I love that the show is not all about the romance yet still is interesting. I love Klaus and Rebekah and Marcel!! The bromance between Marcel and Klaus is seriously epic. I also love seeing the different sides of Klaus. But another thing I love is the fighting and scheming in this show. When Klaus was trying to overthrow Marcel, his plans were so in depth and multi-staged that it was awesome! I love seeing the relationships grow in this show and can't wait for the next half of the season. Click here to see all my Originals posts!


And that's all for today's post!! Hope you enjoyed my list but if you don't agree with the placement of a show, sound off in the comments!! Thanks so much.

Top 10 Movies of 2013

Hi my lovelies!!! I hope you've all had a wonderful holidays! The new year is approaching and as 2013 is coming to a close, I've decided that I will have three back-to-back posts on my favorites books, movies and tv shows of 2013!!!! Today I will rank my top ten favorite movies of the year!!!!! This may contain spoilers so you are forewarned!!

Up first are honorable mentions aka the movies I enjoyed but not enough to make the list.

Frozen

I enjoyed this movie and I loooved Elsa, the snow queen. I really felt for her in this movie and I swear I've listened to Let It Go about a hundred times already. I thought Olaf, the snowman, was hilarious and had some of the best one-liners of the movie and Kristoff, the man who sells ice, and his reindeer were funny. The reason this didn't make the top 10 was simply due to the fact that I didn't like Anna, the main character (or so I believe). She seemed really spoiled and her "problems" were just childish compared to Elsa's actual problems controlling her powers.

Monsters University

While this movie was good and I really enjoyed it, it wasn't one of my favorites. The characters were all fun and I loved all the frat monsters!! The challenges were not only fun to watch but interesting as well. I thought the plot was creative and I really liked how the voice actors came back for this and much of the movie hinted at scenes in Monsters Inc. But I don't know.... This isn't really a movie I would go back and watch again and again which is one of the reason it's an honorable mention.

Grown Ups 2

I did really enjoy this movie. It was funny in the same way that the Grown Ups were and the story and characters continued to be as I loved them in the first movie. There really was no plot but there was plenty of funny one-liners and comedic scenes to hold you to the end. It wasn't as good as Grown Ups though and there were many much better movies out there this year.

Beautiful Creatures

This movie was one I was hesitant to go see. I hadn't read the books and the trailers didn't really look good to me. But eventually enough of my friends recommended it to me and I bit the bullet. Truth be told, I did enjoy the movie for what it was. I liked the characters and the idea of the movie. I didn't enjoy the ending but I know its a series so it has end on a cliffhanger. The special effects were weird though and a lot of the movie dragged until the end.


NOW onto my top ten favorite movies. Now remember, these are my top favorites so if you disagree, that's fine and I'd love to hear your opinions!!

Number 10 is.... Epic!!!

I was expecting to go to this movie and watch a fun little hour long movie. And I was not disappointed! The characters were all three-dimensional and had many layers to fall in love with and the plot although not new was interesting to watch. Basically I fell in love with the leafy kingdom. Seriously, I was not bored at any point throughout this movie! The villains were totally hateable and though the final battle scene went on for a while, I still liked most of it. I did however find it kind of sad that MK grew to normal size and couldn't really be friends with Nod anymore. Overall this movie was seriously EPIC (pun-intended).

Number 9 is.... Oz: The Great and Powerful!!!

Now I really liked this take on the Wizard of Oz and when I first heard of it, I was on the fence as to whether or not to check it out because I never really liked the story of Dorothy and Oz. When I checked out the trailer, I was blown away! I thought it was super fun that the movie was about the Wizard when he first came. The special effects were incredible and I loved the twist in the movie that Glenda was the good witch and Evanora was actually the evil witch. The ending battle was epic and it was definitely my favorite part of the movie. There were negatives however which is why it's at number 9. I did not enjoy how Oscar broke Theodora's heart and then all of a sudden, she's the bad guy because he played her. The movie also began to drag right after he meets Glenda and before the preparations for the battle. But all-in-all, this movie was fun to watch!

Number 8 is .... Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters!!!

Can I just say: I loved this movie more than I should have. It was funny, sarcastic and soooo creative! I loved this take on the classic Grimm brothers' fairytale! It seems totally likely that after almost being eaten by a witch, the siblings would become witch hunters! I was surprised to hear Gemma curse in this movie because I've only ever seen her in Prince of Persia! I loved all the characters including the villain: Famke Janssen aka Jean Grey from X-Men. No seriously, Muriel was a great villain and the end fight scene was sooo cool! It kept you on the edge of your seats! There really wasn't much of a plot other than having to stop the witches but that's enough for this movie-goer!!

Number 7 is... The Wolverine!!!

As you all probably know, the X-Men franchise has a small place in my heart right behind the Star Wars trilogy (the originals because who the hell liked the prequels?) so it's no surprise that this movie is on the list! I really debated where on the list this movie would go because as you knew from my review... there was a lot I loved at the time but thinking back, the movie was not as epic as I thought it was right after seeing it. Finally I settled on 7 because it wasn't too high and it wasn't too low. The plot of this movie made perfect sense to me, the ending was totally not predictable and the amount of Jean dream scenes were just right! I did not enjoy Mariko's romance with Wolverine because I didn't see any chemistry there and Viper wasn't enough of a villain for me to properly enjoy her. Thus, number 7 it is. [Check out my Wolverine Thoughts post if you want more details]

Number 6 is.... Iron Man 3!!!

You knew this was coming! You had to! Now I loved Iron Man because of its creativity and I liked the second movie because of the Black Widow but this movie, it was just amazing! The emotion! The action! Pepper finally kicking ass! Now as most of you know, I really like when a hero shows emotion behind his character. I think that makes the character even more lovable and the fact that Tony Stark was having trouble sleeping and going through stress after the Avengers made me love him more. It makes total sense that he was worried. I also loved the fact that the Mandarin was just an actor! It was a totally unexpected twist and although I would have enjoyed seeing the actual super powered villain, this one was fun to watch. I thought the final battle scene was a little longer than needed and the scenes with that little kid were a little Disney-esque. Normally there's nothing wrong with that but in a superhero movie, I don't need a little kid getting the superhero pumped up again.

Number 5 is.... Percy Jackson: Sea Of Monsters!!!

This is probably a movie that wasn't on most people's radars let alone their top ten but the truth is, I loved this movie. It was fun and although didn't really follow the book to a tee, it was enjoyable. After watching the first movie, I kind of separated the books from the movies so when I went in to watch this movie, I wasn't expecting it to be accurate and it really wasn't. There was a bunch of stuff that made so sense to me but overall the characters were lovable, the battle scenes were fun to watch and the comedic one-liners made me die. Seriously, when Percy and Annabeth were singing it's a small world after all and Clarisse told them to shut up, I died. [Check out my Sea of Monsters post for more details]

Number 4 is... The Hunger Games: Catching Fire!!!

I have never read the books. There. I figured I should get that out of the way. But I have watched the first movie and I really loved this one. It was funny to see how much more of a budget this movie had compared to the first. I love Katniss and Peeta and Haymitch although Gale I could live without. I loved the acting in this movie! I loved the Quarter Quell! I loved that Katniss slowly fell in love with Peeta! President Snow was so cunning and awesome and I totally knew that Plutarch Heavensbee was on their side from the beginning but I loved how cunning he was with Snow! I'm not sure how I feel about Finnick or any of the new characters yet. I've heard everyone who's read the books rant and rave about Finnick and how excited they were to see him but he was alright in the movie. I didn't hate him but I didn't love him either. Maybe I just have to wait for the next one... Speaking of, I can't wait for the next one!

Number 3 is.... The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones!!!

Oh TMI.. where do I begin? How do I count the ways I love you? I only just read the books in the beginning of 2013 so I didn't really need to wait too long for the movie to come out but to me, it felt like forever and you all knew that. I loooooooved this movie. Seriously. I watched this three times in theaters. I loved the way the characters came to life. I loved Lily Collins and Jamie Campbell Bower! I loved that they mostly stuck closely to the books (except for the ending which I can rant and rave about forever but it won't change anything). The chemistry between Lily and Jamie was fantastic and I loved all of the scenery and the fight scenes! I loved Jamie's one-liners and their emotional scene when they realized that they were siblings! CAN NOT WAIT FOR THE NEXT ONE! [Check out my TMI post for a more detailed review]

Number 2 is... The Great Gatsby!!!

Bet you didn't expect this one to be on my list! But it is! Shows how much of a nerd I am!!!! I seriously can't praise this movie enough. Like there are not enough words. I loved this book and I love this movie. Leonardo DiCaprio was beyond perfect and I can't picture anyone else in his place. In fact, all of the castings were perfect and every actor played their roles perfectly. The scenery was just flamboyant enough to show off the 20s and the costumes were gorgeous. I loved the influx of modern music in different scenes and I literally started CRYING when Gatsby was shot. I knew it was coming. I did. But when it happened I gasped anyway! I've watched this once in theaters and like five times on DVD!!!

AND the moment you've allllll been waiting for (not really but let me have my fun). Number 1 is.... THOR: THE DARK WORLD!!!

That was expected. Don't you think? Haha honestly I went back and forth on whether this should be one or two.... I just couldn't decide. When I thought of the Great Gatsby I feel warm and tingly inside but I finally realized that it was probably more to do with all my nostalgic feelings about reading the book four years ago and thus, this movie came out on top! I LOVED IT! I did not really enjoy Thor but this movie went above and beyond! The acting was fantastic! The plot was amazing! CHRIS EVANS HAD A CAMEO! Loki was incredible and I almost cried when I thought he died and I was soooo relieved when he didn't. I loved the battles and it was so sad to see Thor's mother die! I did not really like the ending but I figure they need a way for Thor to stay on Earth so he could be an Avenger. BUT I loved this movie and I can't gush enough about it!


Well that's all for today! Thanks for tuning in! Check back in tomorrow to see my top 10 favorite tv shows of 2013!!

Random Confessions (Not WWE Related)

Hey guys!!! So I was internet stalking today and I decided that it was time for me to lay down some confessions. I already did one of WWE so I figure I'd do one on random other shit. Now children this may get uncomfortable so you are forewarned.... LOL doubt it though.





1. I am a huge nerd. Like you all probs know this but it's so funny. Get me started on anything Marvel, Batman, X-Men or one of my favorite books, I will go on and on for days!








2. Spiderman bores me. Like I've seen the original Spiderman movies and I saw the most recent Amazing Spiderman, but it just doesn't do it for me. Like I enjoyed the Amazing Spiderman simply because of Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone and all the humor. The character of Spiderman never interested me.






3. I do not understand how girls/guys find asses attractive... Like I just don't get it. They are not attractive to me and in actuality, they're kind of gross. Like anytime I see a naked ass, I'm slightly disgusted. #IsThatWeird?

4. When I get into a TV show, I GET INTO IT. Like seriously, I dive in head-first! I will cry and scream at the TV and I'm stalk literally everything about the show from the cast to spoilers to reviews on episodes. It's creepy.

5. I love sleep. Like seriously I will sleep for days and still want to sleep more!!!

6. I have this undying love for Klaus from TVD/TO. Like when he cries on screen, I cry. As in, I hate everyone on the Originals except for Rebekah, Marcel and Klaus. I mean look at his face. His smirk will make you melt! How could anyone not love him? And his voice! Shit. It's like velvet. And his character, christ. The badness flowing from him. I swear to you, I sooooo want a poster of him for my dorm room. Santa, are you listening?








7. I love with Captain America. Like I don't know what it is about him but I do. Maybe it was how awesome sauce the movie was. Or maybe it's Chris Evans: both his acting and him in general. And it's soooo weird. Like I always like the bad boys on TV, movies, books but something about Cap just... I can't explain it.





8. I love Disney movies. Like seriously, I'm nineteen but I will make my way to the movies to watch practically every Disney (animated) movie. But this only works for animated movies because seriously a lot of other Disney movies sucked like The Lone Ranger. Gag me with a spoon.

9. If a show/book/movie has one cast, I CANNOT stand it when they're replaced with another for a sequel. Like I just can't. I fell in love with the original characters so why would I need new ones? Maybe that's partially why I hated the Star Wars prequels... or the fact that the plots just sucked.






10. I have this obsession for coffee. I don't drink it to stay awake, I drink it because it tastes good. I seriously just had the tastiest Wawa coffee ever the other day. You would not believe! It's called a Peppermint White Chocolate Mocha and I seriously died drinking it.








11. When I was a kid, I was obsessed for the PowerPuff girls. I used to write stories about them, had their dolls, VHS tapes and even my bedspread was PowerPuff girls.










12. When I used to watch Pokemon, the Advanced generation was my favorite because I loved May. I thought she was the best female companion Ash had (who did not suck at everything like Dawn or well I actually loved Misty but I hated that she really didn't do anything other than walk around with Ash). I also loved her rival Drew and thought he was the most awesome guy on the show and I BELIEVED that May and Drew were meant to be together forever.











13. I was in love with Aladdin. Yes the Disney movie animated guy. Every little girl had a crush on one of the Disney "princes" and mine was Aladdin. I loved the way he talked, looked and acted. I loved his story and I loved the characters in this movie!






14. When I like a guy, most of the time it's not because he's attractive. For me, if the guy's personality is amazing, he automatically becomes "hot" to me. Like I'm not being cliche or anything but a hot guy without a personality becomes less hot to me. For example, that new show Reign on CW, I love Francis. Now Toby Regbo is not the most traditionally attractive actor but his character on the show is so awesome, that now I find him super attractive.







15. Speaking of Reign, I was watching episode 4 of Reign again because I loved it so much and I realized something creepy. I find it really attractive when a man wears a ring on his index finger. Like wtf? The hell does that mean? What does that say about me? #I'veLostIt






16. I'm not really a shoes person. Most girls are but I'm really not. I just need one basic color for each pair of shoes so that it can match every outfit. Like heels-wise, I have a pair of silver, black and gold shoes and that can go with everything. I have three pairs of boots: grey, black and brown.

17. I hate sneakers. I think they're clunky and big and don't look good with anything unless you're working out. I will never wear a pair of sneakers when I'm going to class or the mall or anything. The worst is when someone wears them to amusement parks or abroad. Ugh. Shivers.

18. I love dystopian romance novels. I can't get enough of them. I love the plots, the characters, the wars, everything.

19. I HATE Twilight with a passion. Like not just because the story and plot and characters sucked but because they ruined vampires. Anytime I tell anyone that I like the Vampire Diaries or tell someone about a book I just read, they ALWAYS say "Ew, vampires. So like Edward Cullen/Robert Pattinson?" or "Ugh. So that book is like Twilight but with __enter whatever "difference" book has__" KLAUS MIKAELSON IS NOTHING LIKE EDWARD CULLEN!!!! Okay. I'm done.

20. I love recommending books and movies to people and I will explain plots but my BIGGEST pet peeve is when that person's response is "Oh so it's like Twilight but better" or "Oh so it's like the Hunger Games but lamer". Like please people, open up your smallish minds and realize that not every book with a romance is like Twilight or every book set in a dystopian future is like Hunger Games.

Okay so I think that's enough. I hope you enjoyed my random confessions!!!!

Thor: The Dark World Thoughts

Hello internet universe!!!!!! So I finally was able to watch Thor: The Dark World last night and let me just say, I HAVE NO WORDS!!! It was soooo good! Much better than the first. First I'm probs going to talk about random shit before actually going into my review of the movie.

Okay so I went to see the movie with two of my friends but they were both girls and the only reason they went was to see Chris Hemsworth which was pretty annoying... I mean he's super mega hot but I can't stand when people go to movies just to ogle the actor/actress. It's really obnoxious. I mean I was there to see the actual plot of the movie while they were giggling in their seats... Anyways, so about a quarter of the way into the movie, the projector broke and I was literally about to kill someone! Ugh. I hate when the projectors break. Long story short, we ended up getting free passes and were allowed to go to a different showing of Thor which had only gotten about half an hour into it so we had to re-watch a little bit of what we already saw but positives, I was able to see Thor! If I hadn't seen it yesterday, I would have been really pissed. Sorry if that was rambly...

From here on, there will probs be spoilers so I'd go to the last paragraph if you haven't seen Thor yet!!!

Like I said, I loved the movie. The acting was fantastic, the plot was crazy good and there was a Captain America cameo!!!! (For those who don't know, I LOVE Cap). There was just the right amount of humor in the movie mixed in with drama and sadness. And Loki was beyond incredible. I love Tom Hiddleston soooooo much! When Loki turned on Thor and chopped his hand off, the first thing I thought was "sucks to suck Thor". My second thought was that Thor's hand will probably grow back and Loki attacked him just to get close to the elves so he could kill them! I didn't even think of the fact that Loki was creating an illusion. I also seriously teared up when Loki "died". I couldn't believe what happened although I thought as far as deaths go, that was a pretty incredible one. I was so happy when I realized he was alive and I laughed at him outthinking everyone and becoming king in the end.

The Captain America cameo was hilarious. I know it was only for like 5 seconds but seriously it made me so happy to see Chris Evans. The little speech he made about loyalty and trust was hilarious coming out of Chris Evans's mouth in Tom Hiddleston's voice.

Now for the things I didn't like or in other words, Jane Foster. I seriously can't stand her character and Natalie Portman and Chris Hemsworth seriously have no chemistry. The scene when they first saw each other was awful. It was really awkward when I know it was supposed to be romantic. The whole story wouldn't have happened either if Jane hadn't been so curious and touched the ether. Thank god Loki didn't die or else Jane would have been the cause for both Loki and Thor's mom's deaths!

Also, the ending was kind of weird and not really in Thor's character. Why would he be so selfish and leave Asgard when they need him the most to be with Jane? Will he age as a human on Earth? Is he going to stay with Jane until she dies and then return to Asgard? Will he loose his powers? Is he giving up being a god? I have so many questions and no answers! Thor just left Asgard with no heir. I mean they thought Loki was dead and Thor's dad was pretty old himself so no one would be able to take the crown.... I feel like Thor is not normally that selfish...

Anyways, so overall I'd give the movie about 4.5/5 stars. I loved it a lot and I would definitely see it again. If you haven't seen it yet, definitely check it out although I'd say if you haven't seen the first Thor, you might be a tiny bit confused. Love you all.

Fall 2013 New Shows

Hey all!!! So this is going to be my thoughts on the Fall 2013 TV line-up. A bunch of new shows have aired and because of this, I figured I'd let you all know my feelings on them. Now, these are just my opinions and my no means does my saying yes or no to the show mean that you may or may not like the show. You always want to give a new show an episode or two before you turn it down!


Okay so first up is the Originals on the CW! Regardless of whether you watched the Vampire Diaries or not, you can follow the show. It follows a family of vampires called the Mikaelsons who were the original vampires. Klaus is a hybrid, half werewolf and half vampire. He, along with his older brother Elijah and younger sister Rebekah wants to take down Klaus's old protégé, Marcel, who is now in charge of New Orleans, the city that the Mikaelsons originally built. They had left the city after being chased away by their father Mikael, a vampire hunter, while it was being constructed and Marcel took charge. Now Klaus has returned after many years and he wants to become the king of the city. So if you like the supernatural and covert politics, this might be the show for you! The core theme of this show is family unlike the Vampire Diaries whose core theme was a romantic triangle. Oh and one last thing, you have to get past the pilot of this show before you'll like the Originals as the pilot pretty much sucks. I'd even watch the backdoor pilot that was a Vampire Dairies episode and skip the actual pilot.

Now onto my thoughts! If you haven't seen the first two episodes of the show, skip to the next paragraph. I loved the Originals in the Vampire Dairies so I decided to give this show a shot even though I hated Hayley and her baby. And so far, I'm really liking the show. I like the thought behind the show and I definitely like that Klaus does not have a love interest yet! My Klaroline heart isn't able to handle that yet. I love all the interactions between the siblings and Hayley is growing on me. I really feel for Klaus after learning about his relationship with Marcel as the last episode showed. All the relationships are so complex and twisted and I'm falling in love with Klaus even more! I'm definitely going to be watching!

The next show that is new this fall is.... Marvel: Agents of Shield on ABC! Basically the show is about the agents of Shield handling weird cases. Agent Coulson is back after the Avengers and he's created a new team which is made up of a mish-mash of agents and they need to learn how to work together. The main character is a woman names Skye who was a hacker that hated Shield originally but now is a part of the team. If you like shows about spies and secret agents, you'll definitely love this show! Each episode is about a new case with the overarching storyline of the agents learning how to work together and teaching Skye about the innerworkings of Shield.

Now, my thoughts! You don't have to skip this section because there aren't any spoilers here. I seriously love this show. I was a bit hesitant because I didn't know how much I would love these new agents after getting to know some of them in the Avengers but Marvel definitely knows how to make a great show. The show is full of drama yet is funny to watch. Most of the characters are all multi-dimensional and lovable. I'm in love with Fitz and Simmons! They are sooo adorable and funny! I like Ward and obviously Coulson. Melinda is super badass and her character is slowly being revealed. It's taking me longer to like Skye because I feel protective of Shield and the fact that Skye seems so wishy-washy is bugging the shit out of me. Sometimes I like her, others I don't. My brother tells me I don't look at the big picture enough haha.... Anyway, I'm definitely going to be continuing to watch this show!!!

The next new show I started to watch was Once Upon a Time in Wonderland on ABC! The show follows Alice who is now grown up and placed in an asylum because everyone thinks she's crazy for believing in Wonderland and her doctors are trying to to cure her with a treatment that will make her forget everything. Alice seems ready to put it all behind her because of the painful memory of the genie she fell in love with and lost forever but deep down she knows this world is real. Just before the treatment occurs, the Knave of Hearts and the White Rabbit save her by telling her that Cyrus is alive. Alice is determined to find Cyrus while evading the plots of Jafar and the Red Queen.

My thoughts... I was excited to watch this show at first after seeing the trailers but .... after watching the pilot, I didn't like the show... First of all, I feel like since this show is a spinoff of Once Upon a Time, you need to watch that show in order to understand this one. I was pretty confused through 80% of the pilot and that was weird. Since it was a spinoff, you would think that the writers would explain the world but I guess they figured only loyal watchers would check it out. Secondly, the acting is pretty terrible. I was literally cringing through the pilot. I don't know if they wanted it that way but the actress that played Alice was sooo stoic and I can't stand when actors are always stoic. To me that does not show off their acting abilities. Anyone can sound like a robot. But the final and largest reason I decided against the show is that the show is too dark for me. Personally I found it extremely weird and not too entertaining. I will probably not be watching any more of this show but again, you should check it out before deciding for or against the show!

Next up is Witches of East End on Lifetime! This show is based on a book series with the same name but you don't have to read the books to understand the show. In fact, I think the writers of the show don't want you to read the books at all by the way they are holding back certain information! The show follows the Beauchamp women, a family of cursed witches. Freya, the main character and Ingrid, her older sister, did not know that they are witches until they are in trouble and their mother had no other choice but to tell them the truth. Along with them learning about their heritage, Freya is engaged to a man named Dash but meets his younger brother, Killian and she begins to have weird dreams about him. 

Now onto my thoughts! I think I like this show. I'm not in love with it yet but I definitely think it will grow on me! I love Freya's mom and aunt and Killian! Killian is mega-hot and the chemistry between his and Freya is unbelievable! I don't really like Ingrid too much yet. She seems so hesitant and annoying because she doesn't really seem to want to except that she's a witch. I really don't like those kind of characters who try to pretend that nothing is going on when it totally is. Freya's fiancé is annoying too, like a Stefan-level annoying. He's kind of good-looking but he's a roadblock between Freya and Killian so I don't like him. [SPOILERS: I'm also waiting for when Killian and Dash are shown as the gods they were in the book. Dash is supposed to be the evil one while Killian is the one who has loved her. I think they did sort of hint at it when Killian mentioned in Freya's dream that he was happy to see Freya again but she's not even really there: END SPOILERS] I definitely will be continuing to watch this show.


And finally, Vampire Diaries has a new season as does this new show that I've fallen in love with called Arrow. Both shows are on the CW. I will also be looking forward to the premiere of Reign as I said in my last post! I still need to check out that new Dracula show as well as the Tomorow People, when I have time.

I hope you enjoyed this post on my new favs!

Stephanie Perkins - Best Contemporary Novels
























Hi everyone! So I just wanted to post a quick blog about two of the BEST contemporary novels I have ever read! Anna and the French Kiss & Lola and the Boy Next Door by Stephanie Perkins. These two books were amazing! Now normally I don't read a lot of contemporary. My go-to genres are definitely dystopian and supernatural I guess (is that what the Mortal Instruments and Percy Jackson would fall under?) because I feel like a lot of contemporary novels are too slow and boring. A lot of problems in the character's lives could be solved by talking to one another and it drives me crazy!

But these two novels, were beyond EPIC! I read them straight through in one sitting. They aren't extremely long and they'll make your insides melt. Like why can't I have a Étienne or a Cricket in my life? The characters in these stories are so well written that you fell in love with them! And the boys! The boys have flaws, they aren't supermodels, they aren't confident and that's exactly what makes them perfect! The girls are strong in their own way and grow through the books. If your upset, these books will make you feel so happy inside.

If you haven't read these books yet, I definitely recommend picking them up! I swear you won't regret it! I even preferred these books to Nicholas Sparks novels! Okay, that's enough fangirling. Love you readers!!

Recent WWE Thoughts

Hi all! So today I'm going to talk about my thoughts about what's been happening on RAW and Smackdown. I haven't been following as closely as I should because Kaitlyn's been taken off screen and I've been bored by most of the storylines lately.

So first I'm going to talk about the WWE divas storyline. Now I've said before that I really don't like AJ (this is the part where AJ fans scream at me and call me soulless) but with her new storyline, I'm starting to warm up to her.... Shocker right? Well the thing is, I sort of agree with her #pipebombshell. Now I by no means hate the Total Divas. I mean I like Nattie and Brie Bella and Total Divas is fairly interesting but the fact that AJ is losing her title to a Total Diva so fast, bugs me. They've only started feuding two weeks ago and AJ's going to lose the title? That seems a little rushed. I would prefer that they had more of a longer feud and maybe someone would win the title at Battleground or Hell in a Cell!

I do however like the idea that AJ is gathering up the just divas onto her side. I think it would be cool to have a Survivor Series match where its Team Just Divas v. Team Total Divas. That would be super fun. And if anyone wins the title, I'd want it to be Nattie or Brie. I think Brie turned face this Smackdown when Layla kicked her. And what a sell! Brie looked like she passed out!

I also wish that they would do something with Kaitlyn too. She's gotten so popular with the crowds and the fact that she doesn't even appear on the show bugs me. I wouldn't even mind a few backstage segments or a romance. Are we just supposed to believe that all the divas in the locker room have picked sides except for Kaitlyn? If I were writing it, I wouldn't make Kaitlyn on either side. She would laugh at all of the girls. Mock the TD girls and then turn around and mock AJ and her posse. She could say that the TD girls are just trying to be famous and AJ's just whining about not being invited to the TD party while the rest of them follow like drones. NONE of them are empowering women because they're all acting like fools. She could talk about how she's being kept backstage and her talents wasted because she isn't willing to sell her soul to a reality show (TD girls) or date the ENTIRE ROSTER (AJ) or take selfies (Layla) or blindly follow AJ for table scraps (Alicia and Aksana). Instead, she could tell Triple H & Stephanie that what happened to Cody, Dolph & the rest is not right. I mean what could they do to punish her? Sic AJ on her again?

Sigh. Wouldn't that be something? Couldn't you imagine how awesome that would be?! Truthfully, I doubt anything like that could happen. I just want her back on TV!!!!! I don't really care which side she takes! I just want her to be there. Turn heel, stick with the TD girls... ANYTHING! Okay that's enough of my breakdown.

What do you guys think? I'm a little biased about Kaitlyn but as for the rest, I'm slowly liking AJ and if any diva has to win the title (other than Kaitlyn), I'd want it to be Nattie or Brie. I kind of wish, the whole corporation angle would effect the divas division too. Wouldn't it be cool if they picked a diva, like Brie or AJ to be the face, and then someone else had the role of Daniel? Wishful thinking I suppose.

Speaking off, I love the whole Corporation angle minus Big Show crying AGAIN. It reminds me of a mix of the McMahon-Helmsley era and the Vince/Stone Cold/Rock storyline! Talk about EPIC! Also I love CM Punk but this Paul Heyman/Punk storyline has been drug along too long. Let's get payoff and move on.

Alright. I guess that's all for now!!!

Percy Jackson Sea of Monsters Thoughts

Hi everyone!!! So I FINALLY got to see the Percy Jackson Sea of Monsters movie last night and let me just say, it was AMAZING!!! And this is coming from a fan of the books... actually I'd go with a series fanatic! Seriously. I've read the books like a hundred times!

Okay so first of all, I'm going to get this out of the way. The movie is like 60% accurate and that's just my opinion. If you ask most other book lovers, they'd probably give you a lower number. But I personally loved the movie. I didn't think it was too cheesy or had too much child-like humor although that may just be due to the fact that I'm a child at heart! If you haven't read the books or seen the first movie, I'd say you could still follow the movie pretty well. Now just a warning, this may contain spoilers for the movie so if you haven't seen it yet or read the books, skip to the last paragraph!

So I liked how they were much more accurate to the books in this movie. Annabeth's hair, Dionysus and the oracle!!! Oh god the oracle! She was soooo creepy but totally spot on! She looked exactly like how I pictured her look and voice to be! Dionysus's portrayal was PERFECT! I loved the way he got everyone's names wrong and pushed Percy to the side for Clarisse and talked down to the half-bloods! The humor in this movie was spot-on, the action scenes and much of the CGI looked great! I loved the ending with Thalia and I loved Hermes! Oh and Grover in a dress! EPIC! I was a little afraid we wouldn't be able to see that scene from the books but we DID! The subtle chemistry between Percy and Annabeth was present too! I also liked the scene in the stomach of the sea monster and the scene with the cave. I DIED when Percy and Annabeth were singing Its a Small World Afterall and Clarisse yells at them to shut up! The beginning flashback was also great because I feel like it really set up the story of Thalia and the camp barrier!

Saying all that, I have to mention that there were some scenes that annoyed me... The first would have to be Luke surfing on the wave that Percy rode. I mean Percy walking on water is a given but Luke? That didn't make much sense. Since when did he become a son of Poseidon?  The second scene I didn't like was the scene when Tyson fell over the cliff and "died" but then you found out that he could heal with water like Percy could and I really didn't think Cyclopes were able to do that... Also the fact that they made it a huge deal that Tyson was a son of Poseidon when all Cyclops are sons of Poseidon. The final thing I didn't like was Kronos and Percy fighting in the end. Kronos was NEVER resembled like that so it seemed kind of weird. I was literally sitting in the theater with a WTF look...

But overall I do think that this movie was fairly accurate to the books with just a few minor setting and plot changes. I really do think that they fixed most of the storyline problems from the Lightening Thief in this one! I'd definitely recommend going out and seeing it. I'd give it a 4 out of 5! Thanks for tuning it!!

Vampire Diaries

Hey guys! Sorry for not posting in forever. I really don't have any excuse except for THE VAMPIRE DIARIES!!! I know I know! How did Allie get sucked into a vampire show? The truth is I HATED Twilight and I'm just not that huge of a fan of vampire shows because the producers always make the vampires soooo broody. You see I tried watching the first episode of Vampire Diaries almost a year ago and I hated Stefan. Elena was alright and I loved Damon. I knew Elena and Stefan were supposed to be a thing and I couldn't stand that so I stopped watching it.

Recently however, I found out that Claire Holt was playing Rebekah and Phoebe Tonkin was playing Hayley. I knew both girls from H20: Just Add Water and Phoebe was in The Secret Circle so I wanted to check out the episodes with them in it. The first episode with Claire was the one where Stefan and Klaus were looking for Gloria. I could handle this Stefan as he wasn't all annoying but the thing that caught me was Klaus and Rebekah! I loooooved the Original vampires and I literally watched a lot of the season 3 episodes for them. Slowly I started to like Elena and Damon as well and wished they would get together.

I probably didn't react how most fans did. While they probably wanted the Mystic Falls team to kill the Originals, I was there hoping that most of their plans failed. I mean I didn't really care too much about Kol and Finn's death or if anything happened to Elijah but I loved Rebekah and Klaus. I felt for those two. They were just lonely and wanted to be loved! Damon was pretty much the same. He hid his loneliness and pain behind a mask.

Vampire Elena was great except for when she was skipping around Stefan like an idiot. I literally rolled my eyes when Caroline realized that Elena was sired to Damon. Stefan during this time was SOOOOOO annoying! God! He was so vindictive and self-righteous! He was acting like it was Damon's fault that Elena was sired and then when they found out that the sire bond doesn't effect feelings, he jumped right onto the "let's find the cure" bandwagon because he hoped that the human Elena would come back and pick him. He doesn't deserve her love if he can't love her how she is now! The scenes between Elena and Damon were my favorite and I looooved the Graduation episode when Elena tells Damon that she's not sorry that she loves him!

I also loved Caroline and Klaus. Their interactions was absolutely adorable and you could FEEL the chemistry between them! I loved the Miss Mystic Falls episode in season 4 when Klaus and Caroline were on a date and he was reading her Miss Mystic application to her! And the graduation episode! My heart MELTED when he told her that Tyler may be her first love but he plans to be her last! Oh god! Stupid Originals show taking away one of my favorite parts of the Vampire Diaries. I did hear however that they aren't planning on Klaus having a new love interest soon but I will stab someone if he starts flirting with that CAMILLE girl! He and Caroline are (to quote Caroline herself) EPIC! Also wanted to mention, I hate Hayley... I understand why the producers had to make her pregnant but that doesn't mean I like it!

Katherine was funny as a character too. Hats off to Nina Dobrev for being able to act as both Elena and Katherine while being totally different! I can't wait to see how Katherine handles being a human although I have heard that she gets close to one of the Salvatores in season 5 and I will stab someone if it's Damon!

So all in all, I'm looking forward to season 5 of the Vampire Diaries and I SERIOUSLY hope there will be a LOT of crossovers between the Originals and the Vampire Diaries because I can't stand the idea that Caroline and Klaus will never meet again! I kind of do wish that Rebekah and Stefan would hook up again because I really did them better as a pair than Matt (thought he was freaking ANNOYING and it was totally his fault Elena was a vampire, I mean let's go for a drive and get away from Mystic Falls? ugh) and Rebekah. I probably will end up watching the Originals if not for just Klaus. If you don't watch the show, definitely check it out (at least from season 3 on because it's not too difficult to understand what's going on). Bye bye for now!

The Wolverine Thoughts

Hello internet universe!!! So the Wolverine just came out on Friday but I went and saw it on Saturday night! Let me just say, it was freaking EPIC!!! I LOVED IT! I'd definitely give it an A and its definitely a must-see movie!!! Now these are my thoughts on the movie and it will probably contain spoilers! If you haven't seen it yet, go check it out!!! Totally worth the money!

Okay so first of all, the ending was NOT predictable!! I've heard that it was but for me, I did not see it coming that Yashida was alive! I totally thought he was dead and that Viper was trying to get Logan's healing powers to put into Mariko. But that may have just been me lol...  I went with Adam (my younger brother) and he told me he say Yashida coming from the very beginning of the movie... But then again, he's like the worst boy ever because he didn't even want to go see the movie and I dragged him with me because none of my friends wanted to see it. They all think I'm nerdy for liking superhero movies lol.

I felt so bad for Logan throughout this movie. When he wasn't going through emotional pain (Jean's death), he was going through physical! I literally cringed when Yashida put that drill into Logan's claw stumps! And when he broke Logan's adamantium claws! Yikes. The worst was probably when he had to cut himself open and pull out Viper's parasite off his heart! I KNEW that Logan couldn't die but when he crushed the parasite and went limp, I gasped... as did the rest of the theater. Speaking of the Viper, the only thing I didn't like about this movie was her. I mean I think she could have been an amazing villain but I feel like she was all bark and no bite. She was only there to prevent the viewers from knowing about Yashida being alive although I did love the scene when she pulled off her skin!

Now onto Jean! I knew she was in this movie and I was looking forward to it because I totally believe that she and Wolverine BELONG together! Having said that, I was pleasantly surprised at the amount of Jean appearances in this movie!!! I thought she would only appear in the beginning of the movie in a dream but she was ALL OVER this movie! I liked how she appeared at all his most vulnerable moments and then in the end, he was able to move past her. I got all girly when he told her that he would always love her but he wants to stay alive.

So the relationship between Mariko and Logan seemed a little forced to me. I mean I like how she helped him move on from Jean but at the same time, she was so much younger than him. There was no chemistry between the two! It was also obvious that the two of them wouldn't have a real relationship because he needs to return to the US and she needs to stay in Japan as the head of the business. Until the point where Yukio died, I thought that Mariko would choose him in the end but guess not.

The post-credit scene was great too! I love the way it was set up and the way Logan is going to return to the X-Men. It made me excited to see X-Men: Days of Future Past. I feel like its funny though for Hugh Jackman. Practically his whole acting career in X-Men. As soon as he finishes one X-Men movie, he's onto another! He finishes X-Men 3 and goes onto Wolverine Origins. He finishes that one and is onto First Class. Finishes First Class and does The Wolverine and now Days of Future Past.

The action in this movie was amazing too. There was a perfect mix of action and storyline so no one is bored! Like I said in the beginning, definitely go check out this movie! You'll definitely love it! It's much more dark than Origins but it's always a new side to Wolverine that you will love! Over and out!

My TMI Addiction... It's a Problem

Hey guys! Sorry I've been gone for so long but I am a such a procrastinator.... Anywho, can I just say.... I have a problem. And that problem is The Mortal Instruments. I am sooooo freaking excited for the movie, I can't even explain. I swear it's like an addiction now. I've watched like all of the trailers: the US teaser trailer, the theatrical trailer, the international trailer, the UK trailer and even the German trailer. The German one is in German so if you do watch it, it's kind of hard to understand it. It also contains a LOT of spoiler scenes from the movie so if you don't want to be spoiled don't watch that one. I've also been on the TMI Hot Topic merchandise site and seriously want that 14 dollar TMI mug (to the left). The runes appear with heat! How cool is that?!

I like seriously cannot wait for the movie to come out but it's like two months away... Sigh. I don't even know what I'm going to do after I watch it... Probably go through withdrawals until the next one... or the final book, whichever comes first :D

That's pretty much all I had to say... I'm sorry but I just HAD to blog this... Maybe I've got it out of my system.... Haha no. I can't even keep a straight face while saying that! It comes out August 21, 2013! Hope you guys are excited for this movie but hopefully not like I am!

Book Review - The Selection by Kiera Cass

Hello internet universe! Allie here with a book review! I just finished reading The Selection by Kiera Cass and omg! I can't even describe how I'm feeling right now!!!! I LOVED THIS BOOK!!! Ahh! Normally I'm not really into books like this one but I've heard some pretty good reviews so I decided to check it out and it was definitely worth it! Basically this book is a slightly dystopian universe (although much more positive than most) where the US has barely managed to survive World War IV. The country has combined with Canada to become Ilea which is run by a royal family. There are several castes in society and depending on how high you were in the caste system, the better of you were. If the royal family has a son, when he comes of age, he will marry a girl from Ilea while a daughter will marry a son from a different royal family. Prince Maxon has to choose a wife by a large application process which is narrowed down to thirty-five. The female protagonist, America Singer, has been selected as one of the thirty-five but she's not happy about it because that means she has to leave her secret love, Aspen, who is in a lower caste than her, making it impossible for them to be together. This book originally reminded me a lot of the Bachelor which is why I was hesitant to pick it up but its very different from the Bachelor. That is all of my non-spoiler section. If you haven't read the book, I would suggest checking it out!!

Now for the spoiler section and my thoughts! Okay so first of all, I LOVE Maxon! I wasn't expecting it due to my biase about dystopian books. I thought that Maxon would be stuck up and wouldn't care about the country but it turned out to be the opposite and I just fell in love with him! From what I gathered about the royal family, his mother (the queen) is an absolute sweetheart and his father (the king) really seems to care about the country. This threw me a little because I really didn't like the caste system so I was expecting the royals to be cold when in fact they were much warmer than I expected. I mean America teased Maxon so much and all three just seem to enjoy it rather than get angry with her! Also, I don't like Aspen. I don't know why but something about him just rubbed me the wrong way... Maybe its just that I loved Maxon but I think it also has to do with the fact that Aspen first pushes America to apply but then gets upset when he realizes that America might actually care for Maxon. Double standard much? I have this feeling that Aspen actually does have another girl besides America but once she became famous, he wanted her again. And of all the places he could go, he ends up at the palace as America's guard! I hated that he just crept into her room while she was sleeping... I find that to be super creepy not romantic! I was happy though at the end that America decided to actually try and win over Maxon because she realized she did like him. I seriously hate Celeste because she's so fake! When she was trying to rip the dress of America, I wanted to reach into the book and smack her! Marlee seems like a sweetheart but I'm curious as to why she's still here if she doesn't like Maxon... Of all the girls, I feel like America is the only one who truly may love him...

This is supposedly the first book of a series and I know The Elite is coming out in a few weeks and I'm SUPER excited!! I can't wait to see what happens and I really hope America pushes Aspen away and Maxon picks her. I feel as though in the next book, Maxon or someone is going to find out about Aspen and America and drama will ensue because afterall the whole book can't be about the Selection. If there are future books, I think they may be about Maxon and America fixing the country and possibly getting rid of the caste system which seems to be the only negative thing about the country.

Well that's all I have to say on this book! Definitely check it out if you haven't already. I give it 5 out 5 stars! Ciao for now!

First Post!!!

Hi everyone!!! My name's Allie and this is a blog for my random ass thoughts since I have sooo many of them! I doubt anyone's reading this but for my own mental well being, I shall pretend as though people are :D

Hmm so about me... I'm eighteen years old and I'm a freshman in college... I have a younger brother named Adam and an older brother named Kyle. I am a huuuuuge WWE fan! I know that's super geeky but I love it. I'm not like most girls however because I don't like the superstars/divas that most girls do.

Let's see.... My absolute favorite superstar is CM Punk, not John Cena (who I actually really don't like... shh). I also love Dolph Ziggler, Chris Jericho, Triple H and Fandango/Johnny Curtis!!! I don't know if you saw RAW this last week but the fact that the crowd was singing Fandango's theme song just made me die!! Oh yeah and the fact that Dolph is Heavyweight Champion! I thought he was going to lose when Alberto put him into the cross armbreaker and I almost had a heart attack! Hmm I also loved Edge (god, can I marry him? Lucky Beth Phoenix!!), John Morrison and Sean Michaels. I used to love the Miz but I hate him as a face... So sad.

I also have weird taste in books. I love the Mortal Instruments (Jace and Clary forever ;D), the Percy Jackson series and the Uglies (wish they would make a movie of it!!). TV shows I love are Pretty Little Liars and I used to love the Hellcats! Oh and I have a YouTube account and a FanFiction although both are mostly lame... The links to both are below.Let's move on to my favorite divas :) My absolute favorite diva is Kaitlyn right now. I also looove Natalya and the Bellas (although the fact that they came back and stole Cody from Kaitlyn made me sad). I used to love Eve (almost cried when she quit but I totally wish her the best with Rener!), Mickie James and Maria (who most divas fans hate but I love). I was never really a fan of Kelly Kelly or AJ. They both just rub me the wrong way... idk why.

Hmmm what else about me? Oh! I looove superhero movies and action romance. Chick flicks sometimes bore me (I HATED the Vow). I love the X-Men movies (although I think Jean and Wolverine belong together), the Avengers, the Batman movies (how great was Anne Hathaway as Catwoman?!) and oooh I loved the Pirates of the Caribbean movies (although I wished Elizabeth had chose Jack Sparrow because come on, who wouldn't love Johnny Depp?!).

Well I think that's all for now! Over and out blog universe :)

xoxo Allie
