Things I am Excited About

The hubby and I went to the cinema on friday for date night. We ended up watching The Fifth Wave, the most interesting part of which was seeing the universal truth about characters written specifically to be love interests never being interesting hold true even when it's a dude. I mean, I had read as much, but seeing is believing and all (also, you ( Read more... )

I am greatly looking forward to "Pride and Prejudice and the Zombies". I do wonder if I should read the book first though.

I doubt it. I mean, yes technically it is adapted from a book. And I haven't read that particular version. Mostly because Austen fans who did tended to say it wasn't hugely different from the original.

Nah, like Torrilin said, I don't think you need to. I heard it's just a lot of copy-pasting from the original, interspersed with weird zombie apocalypse stuff. I have a feeling the film might actually be better :D

P&P and Zombies looks wonderful. The other thing is a sort of live action Frozen, if Anna hadn't managed to save Elsa, isn't it?

Lol, pretty much, with added Hemsworth eye candy ;)

Oh my goodness finally another who wants to see Pride and Prejudice and Zombies!! Everyone I mention this movie to are all bashing its potential. Its a pity you don't live in Vancouver otherwise I'd beg that we see it together! =P

Am so stoked for The Huntsman: Winters War too! Saw the trailer the other day and just squeeing!

What seriously? Have they SEEN the trailer?! I mean, it might turn out to be dreadful, but not based on the promo material!! Even my hubby said it looked good and we have very different taste in cinema...

I'm so glad someone else is squeeing over the same stuff though :D

I know right? I've been trying, and failing miserably so far haha, to convince my sister in law to watch it with me when it comes out. She's a huge fan of Jane Austen but thinks the whole 'zombie' aspect to be too 'over the top'. But that's the whole point! You know I'm going to be totally imagining Buffy, Willow, Anya, et al while watching this movie for sure! ;)
