"I'd Nuke Indians For You"
Dec. 10th, 2007 06:14 pmRecap of my weekend.
Saturday - Steve, Angela, Kevin, Justin, and my sisters came over for my birthday party. Good times, though not enough people wanted to drink. We played Loaded Questions, Karaoke Revolution, and Guitar Hero. Rock on!
Sunday - Boyfriend took me horseback riding! ♥ The place even let us trot and canter (the horse n00b inside of me was awed)! My horse, Cato, was a darling too. Awww. After that, we decided to go see The Golden Compass because I'm a sucker who will watch anything fantasy. It pretty much sucked and was very disappointing. Never read the books and now am not inspired to at all. The whole movie felt like random scenes picked out and slapped together, and the ending was crap-tastic. It literally felt like they just randomly stopped filming because they felt like it, and that was the end. I later heard that they had chopped off the last three chapters of the book so they could put it in the sequel. WTF?!? I hope they don't make a sequel now because I don't want that to become a lesson to other directors. "Hey! Stopping your movie in the middle of the story is a GREAT ploy to lure audiences!" Uh, no. Just NO.
Positive points of the movie were: Prince Caspian trailer on the big screen (so excited) and Nicole Kidman/Nicole Kidman's wardrobe.
Things I'm not sure about: Inkheart trailer... Brendan Fraser? We shall see.
Then we had TGIF which was delicious.
In other news, I don't really want to go to Nationals, but I feel like I'm not being "supportive" if I don't. So I guess I will. It'd be nicer if it wasn't just me stuck with the parents.
