That new Spider-Man trailer officially did it for me. I wanted to see it, but wasn't pumped for it...well consider me PUMPED! I'm saying it now Andrew Garfield, a personal favorite of mine, will ROCK as Peter Parker/Spider-Man. I like how the film seems less cheesy than Raimi's version, but also seems to have humour and Emma Stone was her usual cute self and I think she'll be a fantastic love interest.

The new episode of Skins UK was fantastic. A new character was added to the cast and I believe I'm in lust! The character of Alex, played by newcomer Sam Jackson, was quite a character. He was likable, weird, unique, strange, and a bit psycho meaning he is the typical Skins character. But I loved him! He was quite likable and was very interesting. Best of all, his character was gay, but he was written in such an uncliched way, which I very much appreciated. Sometimes I get sick of how every gay male character must be a stereotype, so it was nice to see one that wasn't like one I've ever seen before on television.

Sloths are one of my favorite animals, so to be honest if I met one, I'd probably have the same reaction as Kristen Bell

My friends had a super bowl party tonight...I ended up in the kitchen with the women ^__^ It was a blast :P

To finish off my Period Drama kick, onto one of my favorite films, the new version of Jane Eyre :)

I Capture the Castle was fantastic! I loved it! Romola Garai proved once again she is a terribly underrated actress. She gave a fabulous performance and her whole family was wildly eccentric, but well developed. I grew to love the wild lot. Also Cavill was great in his small, but memorable role, making me fall in love with him. The film was beautiful to look at with a likable and relatable protagonist. Flaws: Cavill's character was underused and I couldn't help but wish Cassandra ended up with him, but then that'd ruin part of the plot :P Other than that though I felt Blucas was miscasted as Neil. His performance just didn't ring true to me. He was the weak link acting wise. Verdict: 8/10

Hey Oscars, Romola Garai is LONG OVERDUE for an Academy Award nomination!

Absentia proves that Indie horror is where it's at yet again. The film is a slow-burn creepy/eerie film with some nice suspense and two very likable characters who seemed like real sisters. Both women gave very real/sympathetic performances, especially Katie Parker as Callie who was fantastic. The film was well shot had a great score that was as creepy as the film is. I will say though, the film could have been a bit scarier. Eerie, yes, but it wasn't exactly terrifying. Then there was a cop whose non-stop gum chewing acting got on my nerves. But my biggest flaw would be the ending. It's not bad...but I'm on the fence with how the film ended. I don't know what I wanted, but maybe it just needs a re-watch. Overall, a very good spooky horror film done well. Verdict; 8/10

I'm on a period piece drama kick, so I think I'm going to watch I Capture the Castle today on netflix instant, while doing my homework :)

BBC's "mini-series" Birdsong, also based on a novel (which I must read now) was fantastic! It was a brilliantly told love story that took place during WWI, boasting fabulous lead performances from Eddie Redmayne and Clemence Poesy. The film was beautiful to look at with masterful editing, and a gorgeous musical score. The film is quite sad and reminded me a bit of Atonement in look and tone. If I have ANY flaws it's just that the film didn't focus a lot on the love story in the second half (or part 2) and towards the ending the editing got a tad annoying. But these are minor flaws to a beautiful love story. Verdict: 9/10

Would you count a miniseries as a movie or a television show? Such as BBC's Pride & Prejudice starring Colin Firth, for example.
