Greek God Plush!

I just had a cute idea! I would love to make a line of mythological plushies! Of course, I'd start with Greek mythology and its gods and creatures. Can you imagine a Zeus plush with a lightning bolt in its hand? Or Hephaestus?? Or Poseidon, Hades, Hera, Aphrodite, Hera, and Athena? Not Ares; nobody likes Ares, except for Rome. Dionysus could have grapes! And they could all come with those little labels that has their bios and powers! I'd collect them all and give them to my kids, but I'm completely infatuated with Greek mythology.
The mythical creatures would be a huge hit. Pegasus, a phoenix, griffins, and sphinxes! We could even have a MEDUSA!! This is EPIC! I wish I could start up on them! We could later expand to Egyptian mythology and some other one that's fun.
Totally just an idea, but I'd kill to make it happen. Well, maybe not kill, but definitely push some people down.

Dear Jesse McCartney

Jesse McCartney. I just tried to read the lyrics to your song "Up". One line, and I'm floored with you, sir. Not even "good sir" anymore. "Make that body go boom boom cat." You can't possibly expect me to finish this song, or even listen to it. Jesse. JESSE. Get yourself TOGETHER. You songs have gotten wacker and wacker (I'm not even using real words anymore) and it can't keep doing this. I'm not saying go back to "Beautiful Soul", but at least "Leavin'" will do.
That is all, sir. That is all.

Random Attack!

I'm listening to a Let's Do This podcast from December and Korey, Co-Host, and Billy are talking about Leon getting a box of pork rinds from someone via Amazon. My first thought was "I wish someone would send me a box of sunflower seeds." Dude, that'd be friggin' amazing! If someone sent me a case of sunflower seeds out of nowhere, I'd go back to church.
The season finale for Pretty Little Liars airs tonight, and we finally get to see who A is. I'm getting a little tired of this show, to be perfectly honest. At this point, I'm only watching it because I'm using one of the characters for a story I'm writing. And the TT's on Twitter about this! "Is Melissa A?" "Is Jenna A?" I posted "Is Kira A?" Only my roommate was laughing, because we both watched Death Note.
I rediscovered my love for boybands and DBSK this morning and watched the "Rising Sun" video. I'm really sad that three of the guys left that group. I rarely think boybands need as many as five guys anyway, but they were a lot of fun together. And I think the had the largest fan club of all the time, which is pretty awesome.
In case you couldn't tell, I'm rambling. I started thinking that I need to update my blog with something more than Top 5 lists, so I decided to post about other stuff. Hopefully my next attempts will be better than this one lol.

Top 5 Movies I'm Excited About for 2012

Since Harry Potter's OVER and there's no more new movies coming out, this list is almost pointless, but parts of my life do revolve around other fandoms than Harry Potter (though very few of them are getting movie adaptions, and thank Ra for that!). Ever since 2011, I've been looking forward to the movies of 2012 because some of them look EPIC and I can't wait to see them! Here are my top 5 2012 Movie Releases. (By the way, these pictures, not mine. Disclaimer!)

5. Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2: I'm just ready for this series to be done with. I don't care about Bella, Edward, or Jacob. At this point, I just care about Renesmee and Charlie, and that's that. Yes, I know that's a poster for Breaking Dawn Part 1, but I don't care enough about this series anymore to be correct with it.




4. Expendables 2: Yeah, you read that right. I loved the first one, and was so happy when they announced the sequel. I don't care if the plot was basic or if the dialogue was cheesy, the action ROCKED and that was the whole bloody point! Oh, and it has CHUCK FREAKING NORRIS. Hopefully Sylvester Stallone will stick to his guns and keep at it. Oh wow, no puns intended, those were horrible...




3. Dark Knight Rises: Who isn't excited for this movie? Dark Knight was awesome and this one has Tom Hardy as Bane and Anne Hathaway as Catwoman! I don't know when I'll get to see it because I'm sure the first week will be full of people, but see it I will.





2. The Avengers: I'm Team Marvel all the way, and after last year's May movie, I'm Team Thor. It's not the X team to me, but the Avengers have some awesome man-candy in store for me, so that guarantees my ticket. I've honestly been excited about this movie since the ending credits of Thor informed me he'd be in it.





1. Raven: Yeah, I've been led to believe that my Moby Raven is being released next month. There's a huge possibility that the sites I went to confused it with The Raven, the John Cusack movie coming out on the same day, but there's also the hope inside me that it's true, and I can either finally see my beautiful Rudolf Martin on the big screen or get a DVD release date. It's going to be a horrible movie, I already know, but Rudolf's my boy! Gotta support! This movie's been finished for over 2 years and it's about time I caught my Moby Raven.


Those are my movies. Yes, you may laugh, but when I'm sitting in the theaters with my popcorn and the poor sap I either tricked or dragged along with me, I'll be having the last laugh. Or dreamy sigh. Either way, winning!

Best of 2011!!

Okay, so I've taken my last idea and switched it up, because I know I'll be too lazy to actually think up 5 of my favorite shows, artists, and movies of 2011 and put it up before June. I'm picking out one favorite of all of my categories, and then I may, MAY, do a Worst of 2011 list as well. Here....we...go!

Favorite Movie
Yes, I know, I'm completely biased on this one. I've been in love with Rhys Ifans since I first saw him in Little Nicky and I love Elizabethan dramas, so I was going to see this no matter what. But WOW! This movie blew me away! This movie introduced me to the Oxfordian theory of the authorship of Shakespeare's work, and, somehow, the plot captivated me as much as the hot guys (Rhys Ifans as the Earl of Oxford, Edward de Vere, and Xavier Samuel as the Earl of Southampton, Henry). I adored it so much, I saw it twice in two days and bought the DVD on the day of its release. The movie's two hours long, but I wished it was longer. Bravo, Rhys, for not only picking a great project, but for doing so splendidly in this role. Hollywood, take notes!

Favorite Television Show
I know, I know, I'm late, but I really didn't hear that much about this show until my dad showed it to me. I quickly became obsessed with it and watched every available episode in a two-week span. Luke is painfully adorable, Cam and Mitch are the uncles I never knew I wanted, and don't get me started on the beautiful and hilarious Sofia Vergara! Gay people, a hot Latin woman, and genuine comedy; why wouldn't I fall in love with it?

Favorite Artist
I didn't want to fall into her fanbase at first, but through Glee and sneaky radio stations, I was introduced to Adele, and she is never leaving my playlist. Through every bit of drama and rage I had over the past year, her songs would conveniently arrive so I could say "See? This is what I've been saying all along!" and good thing too; my Papa Roach CD's were crying for a break. She deserves every award she gets! Good show!

Well, that's my list. And it's so short.... Well, at least it looks cool.

Ever since I posted my last blog, I've been coming up with ideas for blogs, like "Top 5 Glee Mashups" and "Top 5 Internet Fads", but so far, they haven't panned out. However, I'm currently listening to Spill.com's Best and Worst of 2011, and I'm thinking about doing something like that about my favorite music, movies, and shows of 2011. It'll be a poor list, mind you, because I don't get out much, but it'll at least be something. I don't know, we'll see :).
