'...I'm so starstruck, baby, could you blow my heart up...?'

Saw Race to Witch Mountain on the weekend with Netty. *wriggles* Thoroughly enjoyed it and I am totally getting it on dvd- or making someone buy it for me. :D

I'm not even pretending it has award-winning merit of any kind, but who cares? The movies that win Oscars are generally weepy and tragic and involve people suffering hardship and loss and

OMG HI.
*spams randomly*
I wanna see this. Wonder if I can convince the family that my survival depends on hitting the theater...

[borg_princess]

Hey, if I can convince my jail guard parents to let me out in order to see this movie- this simple request necessitated a 'discussion', omfg- I'm pretty sure you can persuade yours. :D

[odakota_rose]

Hm. I wish... We'll see, my parents are a bit overprotective.

[borg_princess]

Wait, seriously, your parents won't let you out to see a movie? I mean, it's not even like it's Watchmen or something, child-friendly PG Disney movie here!

I downloaded it a few weeks ago and was entertained. I wasn't expecting anything deep. It was a kid's movie FCOL and like you said it was just fun. I loved the geeky!Alex! Reminded me of all the fangirls I've met (although we'd act way cooler if we met an alien. Or maybe not... Heh.)

[borg_princess]

Ack, you and your d/l skillz! *envies* Well, I had a free ticket so it was worth going to the movies and seeing Carla on the big screen. *bounces*

Lol, I TOTALLY thought of fellow fangirls when she was babbling on about aliens and all, it was so very cute- but yes, we would be so much more calm and matter-of-fact if we ever met extra-terrestrial beings, I'm sure. Like, when the Rock was freaking out at Sara levitating stuff? I just wanted to thwack him- 'this is an awesome moment in human history, dude, try to be cooler!'

Carla does the geeky very well. I LOVE her in the first Night in the Museum. When her character, Rebecca meets Sacagweea (totally butcherd the name...shame on me it's part of American history. LOL ). Geeky!Alex just made me squee on the inside (I had already gotten looks for my outward WOOHOO! when Carla's name appeared on screen). I gotta say I LOVED her hair cut for this movie. While this movie is not at all like the original it was fun and I enjoyed it.

Oh I LOL when we learn the Alex is apparently afraid of heights.

I like that they left it sorta openeded (watch the scene during the ending credits) so there could be a possible sequel (which I certainly hope isn't nearly as lame as the sequel to the original. Return to Witch Mountain was pretty lame).

AHAHA! I don't have the guts to cheer in movie theaters, I'm always afraid someone will come and bash me, but I love the image of everyone giving you sidelong glances as you're geeking out!

She is super stunning in this movie, my attention was devoted thusly: 80% to Carla's awesomeness and 20% to the plot, lol. It was just so fantastic to see her on the big screen. *wriggles*

Oh I LOL when we learn the Alex is apparently afraid of heights.

Great scene! [Okay, so they're ALL great when she's in it, but whatever]

I was like, 'OMG, get out of the tunnel! It's probably the launch tube for a missile or something!' and then two seconds later, they had to scramble out to avoid a scorching hot demise. I'm proud of my ability to pick cliches. *beams*

Yesss, I enjoyed the end credit sequences, it totally sets up the possibility of a sequel. *prays the movie is a box office success* Would next year be too soon for a sequel? *iz greedy*

[sunkrux]

FIRST - LOVE THE NEW LAYOUT AND THE BANNER. But you probably knew I'd love it. LOL

As for geekin' out on Carla in the opening credits, yes I did. I'd do it again too. LOL

The end credits were cute. And if they make a sequel, they had better get Carla back as Alex or I won't see it. It's that simple. LOL

[borg_princess]

Awww! *huggles* Thank you! It was actually a byproduct of my epic fail in accidentally deleting the old one, but I think it worked out quite well. I was absolutely enraged with myself yesterday, but now that I'm calm, I think this looks to be a case of serendipity! *twirls*

they had better get Carla back as Alex or I won't see it. It's that simple.

You know, it hadn't even crossed my mind that they WOULDN'T get her back. But now you remind me that I saw the previews for the second Night at the Museum and it has a new chick in it! I don't know what happened to Carla's character in the first, but I was surprised at the new face. If they replace her in this franchise as well, I'm so boycotting it. *nodnod*

[laurandbillever]

sounds like a really nice movie... I'll dowload it some weekend.
I stopped carying about The Oscars a looong time ago.... about them and The Emmys- the people who give those awards are just driving me nuts....

[borg_princess]

It is a SUPER fun movie and you'll enjoy it!

Yeah, I don't give a damn about 'official movie awards' anymore. A movie can win ten Oscars/Emmys etc. etc. and still bore me to tears. Or reduce me to a teary, emotional wreck and I DON'T ENJOY THIS. Give me a humorous sci-fi/action movie any day. :D

[laurandbillever]

Humorous scifi mkovie is not my passion but scifi action is what makes my day bright ^_^ any suggestions? :P

[borg_princess]

Ummm....I don't watch a lot of movies, so I'm probably the wrong person to ask- I did like Next, Red Planet, Paycheck, I, Robot and Constantine. A few of these are old movies, but it's all I can come up with right now. If I think of any more, I'll let you know. :D

[chibi_tenshi24]

Ahahah... if you're telling me to watch it, so I shall!!!!! :D

[borg_princess]

*feels smug* I haz power, yo. :P
