So...how is everyone's Christmas time going? Mine is fine. I am not going to Virgina like we usually do. But...this should be fairy good...even though I won't get to see my family and all...Still, I can spend Christmas and my birthday with my friends...which I have never done before in my life.
And the 2 count downs began!!!
7 days till Christmas 9 days till my 17 birthday
EXCITED!!!
Okay...this song is so addictive...it is called "Jack the Ripper" and it is by the very cult Screaming Lord Sutch!!! They are sorta like cornish, horrorish, campish, gothic like artist...like The Cramps, The Misfits, and Alice Cooper...except a lot lighter sounding. Jack the Ripper...Jack the Ripper.
Omg...I just watched really one of the best films of all time..."The Deer Hunter". I really advise movie buffs to see it.
The Russian Roultte scenes are terrifying!!! The films does revolve somewhat around it. But the whole thing about the deaths of approximately twenty-eight people who died playing Russian roulette were reported as having been influenced by scenes in the movie-Is really dumb...no affense to the people who died but this movie is ANTI-Russian roulette...for gods sake it makes men cry in this movie to be forced to play it.
Everything about the movie is amazing!!! How did they get so many good actors...you have Meryl Streep, Christopher Walken, Robert De Niro, John Cazale, and John Savage...who was extra amazing in this movie. It is one of the most dramatic stories ever. Booty!!! It won 5 Oscars...and Christopher Walken won for best supporting actor because he kicks butt!!! It is the only Oscar he has ever won...
But yeah...it will make you cry. The whole first 1 or so is happy...after that it starts to get serious and sad.
Christopher Walken is pretty...look at this pretty pic of him!!!
I saw "School for Scoundrels" at our dollar theater. It was really funny. It wasn't dumb funny...it was just really dark funny. And odd funny...it was sooooo weird. And I am weird so I liked it. Billy Bob Thorton cracks me up. I really like him...he seems cool and he is really weird, I don't know why...he just is.
Darn!!! The Sopranos doesn't air on A&E till January 10th. They will show new episodes every Wednesday. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------1Lillita1957's Subject Post: Hard Candy
Wow...another film I have never seen or heard...this make me seem like such not a movie person. (lol) I like the poster...it looks awesome...makes me wanna see it.
Plot: For three weeks, 14-year-old Hayley Stark has been chatting on-line with 'Lensmaster319', a 32-year old fashion photographer, named Jeff. The two agree to meet at a coffee shop called Nighthawks. They hit it off, despite the massive age difference. Hayley appears to flirt with Jeff, and Jeff generally restrains himself, even admitting that he must wait 4-years until he can be with her. But his reservations are apparently not enough to decline when Hayley all but invites herself over to his house. Once at the house, manipulation becomes the name of the game, and the pedophile seems to be on the non-traditional side of it.
It's a thriller...as you can see...
It stares Patrick Wilson (Phantom of the Opera), Ellen Page, and Sandra Oh.
So, school is almost out. I got out at 1:15 today. They are exam days. I had 2 partys today and one exam. So...it was really fun.
WHEN IS "THE SOPRANOS" COMING ON A&E!!!? Ergh...I can't wait. I have seen quit a few episodes and my friends house. But I don't get HBO which sucks. Even though it will be edited for t.v. It will still be amazing, though not half as good but still amazing.
Christopher Moltisanti is my favorite character. Though he turns into a fucked up druggy.
Man, now I wanna watch "The Goodfellas"!!! Aww...poor Spider gets shoot in the foot!!! :(
And then he smarts off and dies...And then Ray Liotta/Henry Hill is dumb enough to say..."He's dead", no crap he is dead!!! He got shot like 5 times.
U can tell I am bored...but trying to entertain myself. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lillita1957's subject post:The Piano Teacher
I have not seen this film...but I have researched it and now I want to, its odd but I like it. And it is based off the book Die Klavierspielerin , which is suppose to be even more shocking then the movie.
Erika (Isabelle Huppert) is a piano professor at a Vienna music conservatory. Although in her late thirties, she lives in an apartment with her overprotective and controlling mother (Annie Girardot). Lonely and alienated, she has an unhealthy love-hate relationship with her mother. She is a first-rate teacher but cruel to her students, even attempting to ruin a talented girl. Behind the prudish façade, she is a sexually repressed woman with a long list of extreme fetishes. Upon meeting a charming engineering student in his twenties, she becomes obsessed with Walter (Benoît Magimel), who is also a capable performer and shares in her appreciation for Schumann and Schubert. However, when she finally agrees to a relationship with the insistent young man, he is unable to accept her sado-masochistic fantasies. After an unsatisfying attempt, the two return to their lives as if nothing had changed.
Doesn't that sound dramatic!!! :o
And it is French for all you French lovers...I am because I love French films.
Wow, it is already December. And SO much has happened since I last wrote an entry.
Let's see...
I have seen the movie Casino Royale 4 times already. I am obsessed with the film.
On Thanksgiving all I did really was watch James Bond films. And it was awesome.
I just saw "Christine". Um, that movie is kick ass. The car is sexy. I want a car that will kill all the people that are mean to me...but I don't want one that will make me obsessed with it and kill my friends. And make me not a nred anymore and more of an ass whole.
So, we had rehearshals liast night!!! And it was hilarious!!!
Yeah, I am in another play. It is our dessert theatre play. It is called "The Marriage of Bette and Boo". I play the "dumbest white woman alive", that is what my husband would call me...but my name is Soot. It takes place in the south and is about what the title says it is about. Now Bette has a lot of still born babies, 4 to be exact, and everytime she has one the doctor says "It's dead", and drops the baby on the stage. WOW!!! This is a really dark...oh yeah, comedy. I have read the script and I think it is really funny...I like it. But, I can imagine people coming to see the play and getting really offended by it...and just plane shocked!!! But, I don't really care, I am happy to be in such a dark...weird comedy where a Catholic preist falls on the floor and acts like a piece of bacon. Yeah...that happens too.
I have a cold...which really sucks!!!
We went Christmas shopping yesterday, which was really fun!!! I can't wait till Christmas! And my Birthday...which is the 27th. I will be 17!!! WOW!!! I am getting so old!!!
Am I a dork because I love the movie "Three Men and a Baby"? Steve Guttenburg is my absolute fav. , which makes me seem even more dorky. My likes are very random.
I's love this video. Gary Oldman is SO SEXY as Sid.
I saw my first opera Friday!!! It was the opera "The Barber of Seville". It is a sequal to the opera "The Marriage of Figaro". The most famous song in the opera is the song that goes like this "Figaro...Figaro...Figaro". It was great. The man who played Figaro was surpisingly hot!!! I never pictured Figaro as hot, but I guess he is. It was a pretty bad opera for its time...using the word damn like 5 times. Also...there was this Scottich guy in front of us named Liam and he had red hair and wore a kelt. He was hot. He was also nice. He talked to me and my friend before the play and after and during intermission. It was fun.
I am being so random bored!!!
I got 2 more Beatle albums. I got Rubber Soul, shich is one of my favs. and the new Beatles Love album. I love the love album...the songs are beautiful. Mwah!!! I love that pic!!!
Dudley Moore is my pimp!!! (lol) He cracks me up-see previous entry on way and how...exc. I just love this pic.
I am tired and need to go to bed...and I am getting to random. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *EDIT*
I almost forgot!!!
Lillita1957's Subject Post: The Rocky Horror Picture Show
This has to be one of my favorite musicals of all time. Its references to old horror movies is great...if you don't know this is a tale simalair to Frankenstein...he has created a man. Also the opening number, "Science Fiction Double Feature", contains references to many classic science fiction films.
Also...all the characters are amazing!!!
My favortie male character has to be Frankenfurter...SEXY!!! I love him so much. Those legs :)!!! (lol) Plus, he is such a drama queen with outfits to die for.
My favorite female character is Columbia. She is sooo cool!!! (lol) Her outfits are so kick ass. Plus, she taps...which is awesome!!!
Also...there is Brad and janet...who are the cheesiest white couple ever to walk on EARTH!!! They were just asking for it...weren't they? The song "Damnit Janet"...is a piece of corn!!! But, You gotta love it anyway. No offense to Susan Sarandon because I like her...but Janet is a hoe!!! (lol) She sleeps with Rocky & Frankenfurter...and is going to marry Brad.
Riff-Raff and Magenta are just freaky. (lol) They scare me. :o And I am really mad at Riff Raff for killing Rocky and my man Frankenfurter!!! SHAME!!!
I also like Eddie...because Meatloaf can rock the house on any song!!! "Whatever Happened to Saturday Night?" aka "Hot Patootie (bless my soul)" is probably one of my favorite songs in the whole musical. Oh...I didn't say anything about Rocky yet. Well, he really isn't my cup of tea. I am not much of a muscular bleach blond freak myself.
Let's do the time wrap again!!!
oh yes!!! Definitly one of the best scenes!!! Sweet Transvestite.
Oh...if you like this musical check out "Reefer Madness"...because if you like "The Rocky Horror picture show" then this musical is probably your thang too!!! They are both so odd.
I see that my Xanga site is not dead. Wow, thanks for caring enough people to post a comment on my site when I really haven't been on for such a long time. I try to mix up my entires a lot lot by putting stuff I have actually done, my personal life, and interests. Mostly I know, I talk about movies. But people seem to enjoy that. Anyhow...
I did steal this from my Myspace entry but I don't really care, no one has read it anyway...
I saw "Casino Royale", which of course is the new James Bond movie. First of all...it was a great film. Actually now one of my favorite James Bond films of all time!!!
Daniel Craig, though some people don't like him because he is blond (which is dumb), I thought he was a really good Bond!!! He was more dark, in attitude, than the other Bonds. He just seemed so unemotional at the times where he killed people. And well...there was a whole lot more physical stuff with him fighting then it seemed like in the other movies.
Also this Bond movieseems to be really geared toward woman too, not just men. Because in the opening credits it was just Bond, not the usual half naked lady...(lol). And Bond had well...his shirt off most of the time. I mean, it did have eye candy for men too...but damn did Daniel Craig look fine!!! (LOL) Also they made Bond have actual love feelings toward a woman, not just wanting for him to have sex with all the women.
The bad guy, one of them anyway, was completely awesome!!! And his name is Le Chiffrem, how fun is that to say!!!? He has the odd looking eye, which he crys blood out of!!! And he wears black all the time. Also he has asma...which was like wtf? It made me feel sorta sorry for him...lol
And the new Bond girl Vespa was quit good too...I don't want to give anything away, so I will keep my mouth shut. She is more dark beautiful...with the really pretty dark brown hair.
You know what this movie is mainly about!? Hehe...figure it out by the title!!! It is mostly about a poker game being played and involves a lot of poker. I LOVE POKER!!! It is fun to play, I which I could play better now.
But there is one torture scene where Bond is naked in a chair with the bottom of the chair out and the bad guy has this weird whip thing and well he whips his balls!!! And this is one of the funniest scenes in the movie because Bond says some funny things to the bad guy...you have to see it to get it!!!
Well...I really love the movie...I give it 10 out 0f 10 stars. And...I want to see it again very soon.
So my sis and I watched "Beyond the Fringe". I love it. OmG!!! More hilarious British comedy!!! And adorableness!!!
Hummm...I would have to say my favorite is freaking Dudley Moore. Because I am just crazy like that!!! Well...I just think his style of comedy is so funny. Plus he is really good at music also and does comedy with that. Plus, I love his later work...hilarious!!! I need to see "Arthur" before I die...which could be anything so it means soon.
And don't know...I sorta how this Peter/Dudley love going on. Okay...Pete is a close 2nd. (lol)
AMAZINGNESS!!!
Hehe...us theater people would say...sick!!!
More silliness!!!
I watched "Gods and Mosters". Wow...um that film touched me right here...and if you could see me I would be pointing to my heart. If you are going to watch it bring a tissue because it made me cry. Maybe because I am a big classig horror movie it even touched me more.
It movie stares the great Ian Mckellen as James Whale, the directer of "Frankenstein", "The Bride of Frankenstein", "The Invisible Man", and yes even "Showboat". This is more about his personal struggle with dealing with his past life...his father and fighting in the war. It also deals with his homosexuality and him being looked down on beacuse of it. But yeah...he was fucked up. He has something in his head where it would recall memories and he couldn't really deal with it that well. And it has one of the greatest endings I have seen of any movie...that part was touching, it made me cry.
So Lillita1957 won the contest and here is the post for her of the entry. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lillita1957's Subject Post: The Marx Brothers
Basically I love them sooo much. Actually I have seen and own all of their fims, all but one of them..."Love Happy", which also stares Marilyn Monroe.
My favorite of the 5 Marx Brothers, if you want to include Gummo, has to be Harpo...hence the name. He is the most physical out of all of him. He is the clown/mime character of the group. He never talks or sings, he does all the physical gages. He put his leg on a persons arm when they try to shake his hand...he chases girls around and he honks his horn. He also plays the harp beutifully...and is completely serious when he does so.
My favorite Marx Brothers film has to be "Duck Soup". this film actually is considered one of the most important films in hollywood history. It is so important because of the brilliant political satirethat is in the movie.
Here is the plot-To rescue the small country of Freedonia from bankruptcy, Mrs. Teasdale agrees to donate 20 million dollars if Rufus T. Firefly is appointed its new president. Firefly is a cynical, sarcastic dictator who refuses to play politics by the book. For instance, he does reduce workers' hours~~by shortening their lunch breaks! Firefly attempts to win the hand of Mrs. Teasdale, as does Ambassador Trentino of the neighboring country, Sylvania. When the two leaders cannot resolve their dispute over the wealthy dowager, war between the countries is declared, and Mrs. Teasdale's house comes under attack. Who will save the day?
Zeppo...who isn't anymore really one of the famous Marx Brothers is great!!! Some people don't like him at all. I love him. He is handsome and his singing is really beautiful!!! I love the song "Everyone Says I Love You!!!". I like the Marx Brother films after he left, they are okay. But, I am not going to touch on those because well...Zeppo made the films more whole.
I LOVE how Zeppo sings!!!
Groucho is the one with the funny lines and the wise cracks. He is the most famous Marx brother of all time...and has the most iconis look. Even if you have never heard of the Marx Brothers you know what he looks like.
Chico Marx...how do I discribe him...well his name was chico because that is spanish for girls. Um...he played the piano brilliant. I always am SO amazed when I watch a MArx Brothers film and see him on the piano. Also Chico also had some of the best lines ever...such as....
Chico: Right now I'd do anything for money. I'd kill somebody for money. I'd kill *you* for money. [Harpo looks dejected] Chico: Ha ha ha. Ah, no. You're my friend. I'd kill you for nothing. [Harpo smiles]
Hammer: Now here is a little peninsula and here is a viaduct leading over to the mainland. Chico: Why a duck?
And that is how I got the title for my header which rocks all!!! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So, I hope I did a job at posting about them!!!
Though he turns into a fucked up druggy.
