So it's been a while since I posted, but mainly because I haven't watched anything worth talking about.

I saw "The Avengers" again yesterday and it's still my current favourite movie. A movie should take you to a place where you forget anything that may be stressing you out and this movie has the ability to remove me from all the frustration that currently surrounds me and just allow me to enjoy life for 2 hours. It is what we call a 'popcorn' film. Of course, getting my Loki fix was the main reason for seeing it again, and boy did I get my Loki fix. Weeeeeeeeeee!! I'll survive for another week or so now. :)

We did also watch "Young Adult" with Charlize Theron and Patrick Wilson and I really was so unimpressed by it all. The trailers looked great and very promising, but the reality of the situation was that Diablo Cody is a one hit wonder and will probably never get the same success she got from "Juno". It was almost embarrasing to watch and Charlize Theron was not at all convincing as someone who has depression. She was just a deluded bitch really. Don't recommend this one at all.

Also in the last few days, a teaser trailer has emerged for "Les Miserables" with Anne Hathaway singing 'I dreamed a dream' and while the images themselves are powerful, I'm not convinced she is the perfect Fontine. Check it out below.

I am still very much looking forward to seeing this movie though and am sure, like the stage show, I will be a complete mess as I watch.

The MTV Movie Awards have just been shown for 2012 and every year they cement to me what a joke some awards shows are. I used to love watching the MTV Movie Awards because they were more light hearted than the Oscars, but they have become a complete slave to teenage hormones and nothing that actually deserves to win does. It was all about "The Hunger Games" this year, and I'm  more convinced than ever that this is the new "Twilight". I guess it's a sign I'm getting older, (40 today infact. LOL), and less tolerant of people pandering to the fickle teenage market.
There are still so many movies I really want to see, but actually seeing them at the cinema is expensive so I have to wait for DVD release. Look out for the following reviews from me.
Dark Shadows
My Week with Marilyn
J. Edgar
50/50
Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter
Snow White and the Huntsman
The Woman in Black
Brave

I'm sure there will be lots more, but these are the ones that come to mind.
Thanks for reading guys and sorry for the lapse in posts. :)
