[26] Pitch Perfect

[angelamaria]

So last weekend I got to watch Pitch Perfect, which was a fun light movie; I really enjoyed the songs and the humor and Skylar Astin. It was an impulse watch and I had no idea what the story was about, just that it was a musical and it was supposed to be funny, haha. Well, as I was looking to icon something easy for inspired20in20's 16th round ("Simplicity"), I

~*~ PRESTO MAGIC ~*~

XD lol, kidding! I just immediately thought of that song. Because, you know, I don't have the soundtrack on repeat. Nope.

AND OH YOU, SHUSH. Let me hug you and squish you, you are too qt~~ HUG HUG HUG

And OH GOSH SOMEONE WHO CAN RELATE OMG. Honestly I kept asking WHY IS IT SO DIFFICULT TO COLOR YOU, CAPS?? I have like 398579237 attempts at the cap I used for 08 because Skylar Astin omfg and it's such a damn pretty cap and well lit and everything but OMG WHY WHY WHY it kept looking so LQ and ugh. IDK IDK, I ended up painting stuff for pretty much most of this set lol.

And damn Anna Kendrick is pretty, no? :D (I almostalmostalmost want to watch Twilight now to see her.) I had no idea she could sing.

So I am super happy you like them (to a moderate degree~~~ ). I really want to rewatch the movie again, the youtube vids are just plain not enough urgh why are DVDs coming out December only?? T_T And it's not on my VOD either and nothing in other places DDDDD: WHY.

[ionizable]

HAHA oh man i've been replaying the heck out of the soundtrack too, but i'm actually a little angry at how many songs were left off it. what happened to titanium???? and the i saw the sign/bulletproof mashup?? and some of the other acapella songs that were performed through the movie, like blame it on the boogie? the dvd better have all those + all the blooper reels. haha it could not be december soon enough, i'm running out of people willing to go to the theatres with me ㅠㅠ

also

1) LOL PLS DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME GOING TO SEE TWILIGHT, she's only in it for like 2 minutes each time and she's not even in the last one (which isn't a bad thing though). just watch all her other films over and over instead \o/
2) her singing is the most adorable thing ever
3) there is no number three, it just looks weird if i only have two points

yeah, i was working on some colouring last night and kept getting mad haha, you're RIGHT everything comes out looking lq and i hate it. i'm probably going to have to end up cutting everything out and painting everything too like you did, if i want to finish the set i want to do for the7days. but i'm lazy and blarghghgh i don't wanna 8(

[angelamaria]

Ugh, I was totally looking forward to Titanium as well :( I has a sad about that one. And The Sign/Bulletproof mashup too, I did like that one. Ugh. Maybe they'll release a "special edition" soundtrack sometime? :P

BLOOPER REELS. I LIVE FOR BLOOPER REELS. GIMME ALL TEH BLOOPERZ.

I'm at work right now so can't go around watching Youtube :-| lol but I will check them out when I get home!

AND GO YOU~~~ \o/ Cutting them out at least means lesser icon areas that you have to fix because of the LQness, hahaha.

[angelamaria]

Haha just saw the two Youtube clips. Awww she's a qt also~~ and OMG. I totally forgot she was in 50/50. I loooove that movie and I loved her character and omfg. It's fantastic~

The icon you posted at The Comm That Must Not Be Named is adorable! I was so going to guess you but ugh, someone beat me to it so I'm like, oh well lol. Seriously though, what is up with that, there was totally some hinting going on with Chloe/Beca but it totally completely disappeared somewhere. I mean, okay they decided not to pursue it but I'm like, um where did it go?

[ionizable]

YES omg i was so surprised by how much i enjoyed 50/50. it was SO good, and she was perfectttt in it. then again i tend to think she's great in everything she's in lol #unapologeticstan

and thank you hehehe! and OH MY GOSHHHHH YES that was my exact thought process. i mean skylar astin is adorable and all and he needs to always be shimmying while singing, but when all that chloe/beca chemistry got relegated to the background so he could have qt little snuggling scenes with beca instead i was just like

ಠ╭╮ಠ oh i guess that's cute
ಠ╭╮ಠ but what happened to all that lesbianism earlier
ಠ╭╮ಠ there was so much lesbianism
ಠ╭╮ಠ where did it go
ಠ╭╮ಠ ...

like why did they purposely load up the beginning of the movie with all that ridiculously overt subtext if they were going to pretend it didn't happen at the end ಠ╭╮ಠ

hahaha I DON'T KNOW IF YOU CAN TELL BUT I KIND OF GOT INVESTED IN THAT SHIP

[angelamaria]

Awwww! Yes, I can tell ;) I personally am a very boring shipper and mostly ship het, so I was fine with Jesse/Beca (okay maybe can I have Jesse all to myself) but I didn't like how they were baiting and adding that very obvious subtext and then just completely forget about it after that party. :/ It was really badly done, IMO.

And yes to the Singing Skylar Shimmying, all the time. Damn.

50/50 is so fantastic. Love love love it. I will watch it again and love it twice over!
