Practical Magic & Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief





Last night I had a go at Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief because the net went down for a bit. I'd actually started on it earlier a few days ago for the same reason, but the Internet got back up not 10 mins into the movie, so I closed it and went online. LOL.


Anyways, if anyone is familiar with Greek mythology, and likes it, this movie is fantastic. I'm totally a fan, I'm familiar with the creatures and myths, though I couldn't recall the specific name of the lotus flower thingy until Annabeth explained it. And -now-, I recall that Odysseus'(Latin: Ulysses) men fell under that very same trap as well. I think Uma Thurman was HOT as the Medusa and this movie has good comedy value as well. I have no idea why Persephone is black. I figured every Greek had a porcelain complexion. But tha's ok. She's still pretteh. ^.^ Cerberus didn't look like a dog at all. *shrugs* All in all, a good movie. Charon's awesome. Heck, the graphics for the underworld were awesome. If anything at all, you have GOT to see that.


Then I continued on with Practical Magic. I was reading a blog that mentioned it and it suddenly hit me that I had not seen it. I like Sandra Bullock, she looks very down-to-earth and not SUPER DUPER glamorous which makes her all the more awesome. :P Her romantic comedies are great, and this was one that I really really liked. I suppose we have a little girl in us that always wanted to be a witch, or cast spells like one. I know I have. Heresy, I know, but eh... I was young then. :P


This movie is funneh. Watch it. Nicole Kidman is sooooo much prettier when she's a redhead. *nods*
