Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day

Based of the children's book by Judith Viorist is the story of Alexander who wakes up to have the "worst day ever". The movie follows Alexander (Ed Oxenbould) and his "perfect" family from their usually great and wonderful days to a horrible and treacherous one that continues to just get worse and worse. Since the movie is being made by the Walt Disney Company it can be assumed it will be family friendly, full of laughs, and will most likely have a lesson or two that your children can learn while watching it. The film is set for release this October.

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them Movie

We were informed last year that J.K Rowling would again be taking part in writing the screenplay for the new book to movie adaptation of her novel, Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them. As much news as we've been given so far is that the book will be split into three movies just like The Hobbit. November 18th, 2016 is the set date for the release of the first movie.

Synopsis:

The story is about a "magizoologist" named Newt Scamander, and his career and related adventures in the pursuit of magical creatures. Just like the book, it will take place 70 years before Harry Potter and his gang make their debut. And it is expected to take place in New York.

Insurgent Begins!

They're off to Atlanta!; the Insurgent cast has begun their journey to Atlanta, Georgia for the filming of Insurgent.  Recently in Insurgent  news we have found out that Octavia Spencer as joined the cast as Johanna, the leader of Amity,  and Romeo Miller has auditioned for the role of Uriah but no news has of the actual role has been heard yet. Ugh! Personally, I think Romeo looks liKe he'd we a very good Uriah; however, I don't know much information on his acting skills. Octavia, on the other hand, I think will do a FABULOUS job coming from seeing her oscar nominated performance in The Help.
Insurgent is set for release March 20th, 2015, but stay tuned for more Insurgent info!

Holy Stars

Holy Stars! my physics classroom is FREEZING. It is so cold and I swear I'm turning into an ice cube. It's summer outside, but it's still freaking winter in here. Like do we reallyy need the air conditioning on FULL BLAST. I swear..

In other news I am currently reading Scarlet by Marrissa Meyer, hence the holy stars reference. I finished Cinder quite quickly but have yet to do a review which will hopefully be up soon! I have some pretty intense weeks coming up though.  This and the next week is all test and finals.. wooooo. super fun.. So, hopefully I will still be able to post some on here and my youtube channel. I think I'm going to prerecord and rewrite for both so I don't have too much to do. gosh? school is so stressful? I can not waittt until it's over. ONLY 4 MORE DAYS OF SCHOOL AND 2 FINALS. YASS.

Well I'm just going to post this now. Nothing interesting is really happening, we're just watching videos on color and mantis shrimp and reading comic articles on the same thing. Like what? I can't even comprehend how there are more colors that we can't see or imagine. It's bat crazy. lol. someone find out more colors and write a book to do with it! Or just write about a mantis shrimp because it's a pretty sick animal

Blood of Olympus Cover Reveal

The fifth and final book in the Heroes of Olympus series by Rick Riordan just released it's cover for the book! As we know a huge, long awaited battle is going to take part in Greece between the seven and Gaea's forces. The book will continute with where House of Hades left off and is set for release October 7th, 2014.
Click the video down below for my reaction to the cover and for some close ups!
Summary:

Though the Greek and Roman crewmembers of the "Argo II" have made progress in their many quests, they still seem no closer to defeating the earth mother, Gaea. Her giants have risen-all of them, and they're stronger than ever. They must be stopped before the Feast of Spes, when Gaea plans to have two demigods sacrificed in Athens. She needs their blood-the blood of Olympus-in order to wake. 
The demigods are having more frequent visions of a terrible battle at Camp Half-Blood. The Roman legion from Camp Jupiter, led by Octavian, is almost within striking distance. Though it is tempting to take the Athena Parthenos to Athens to use as a secret weapon, the friends know that the huge statue belongs back on Long Island, where it "might" be able to stop a war between the two camps. 
The Athena Parthenos will go west; the "Argo II" will go east. The gods, still suffering from multiple personality disorder, are useless. How can a handful of young demigods hope to persevere against Gaea's army of powerful giants? As dangerous as it is to head to Athens, they have no other option. They have sacrificed too much already. And if Gaea wakes, it is game over

Dangerous Creatures by Kami Garcia, Margaret Stohl

A "dangerous" new spin off series from the world of Beautiful Creatures. The first book in the series, Dangerous Creatures, is set for release May 20th, 2014 (in 2 days!)

Summary:

Ridley Duchannes is nobody's heroine. She's a Dark Caster, a Siren. She can make you do things. Anything. You can't trust her, or yourself when she's around. And she'll be the first to tell you to stay away-especially if you're going to do something as stupid as fall in love with her. 

Lucky for Ridley, her wannabe rocker boyfriend, Wesley "Link" Lincoln, never listens to anyone. Link doesn't care if Rid's no good for him, and he takes her along when he leaves small-town Gatlin to follow his rock-star dream. He teams up with a ragtag group of Dark Casters, and when the band scores a gig at a hot Underground club, it looks like all of Link's dreams are about to come true. 

But New York City is a dangerous place for both Casters and Mortals, and soon Ridley realizes that Link's bandmates are keeping secrets. With bad-boy club owner Lennox Gates on her heels, Rid is determined to find out the truth. What she discovers is worse than she could have imagined: Link has a price on his head that no Caster or Mortal can ever pay. With their lives on the line, what's a Siren to do? 

Cinderella Teaser Trailer

Set for release of March 2015 is Disney's new live action film Cinderella; which is based on the classic fairy tale by the Brothers Grimm. The movies stars Lily James as Ella and Cate Blanchett as the evil stepmother along with other well know actors and actresses.

The trailer obviously doesn't show us or give us much insight to the actual movie. Then again mostly everyone know the story of Cinderella. it does have spectacular special effects which gives the movie high hopes. Though this is another Disney reboot I do believe it will be a success. This seems to be a pattern with Disney now a days. With Maleficent, Into the Woods, Cinderella, and now apparently Belle; i'm really questioning whether or not Disney is running out of ideas or juts knows what will make them more money.

Mockingjay First Look

This photo was recently released of Julianne Moore as president Coin! Honestly, I can say this is definitely not how ! pictured her. I for some reason saw her more of a short, stout women with short black hair. Don't know why but, hmmm.. However, I do think her look goes with the theme of the movie and books. and it gives her the official and strict look meant for her character. I also think she'll do a great job as coin coming from seeing her role in the recent version of Carrie.
