M Date - Movies

Last weekend Corey and I had our M Date (yes, we are doing these way out of order).  We decided to go to Gold Class to see The Hunger Games.  I had been wanting to see this since it came out but hadn't been feeling quite up to it.  I am so glad we finally go to watch it.  I was so impressed with this movie. I think they recreated the world of the books so well.  The contrast between the districts and the capitol was done perfectly.  The capitol characters costumes were phenomenal. The colour, the eccentricity, I was very impressed!

And I must say Rue was the cutest little thing I have ever seen! I think she was my favourite character even though she only had a small part.  Have you guys seen The Hunger Games?  What did you think?

The End of an Era

Last night we went and saw the last Harry Potter movie and it was awesome! I really enjoyed it although there were some little points I would pick on as not being explained properly but generally I thought it was great. It feels like the end of an era for me. I started reading Harry Potter in grade 8 and have loved it ever since. I have read all the books a few times and am currently rereading them again. So as a little homage to Harry Potter I decided to find all my favorite Harry Potter projects from around the net to share here....

And how could I not share this very unsettling photo. Voldemort smiling, Bellatix hugging Dumbledore. It's just so awkward!!!
