Scorch Trials Movie Trailer Reaction!

Roses are red,
Violets are blue.
It's called Scorch Trials,
Not Maze Runner 2.

Okay, first and foremost, watch the trailer to Scorch Trials (the 2nd movie after The Maze Runner,  which if you have not watched, you must).


Give me a minute to breathe and restrain myself from typing all of the next sentences in all caps.


Okay, I'm good.

I have absolutely no idea if my expectations were just too high or I imagined it to be so much like the book, but I didn't love the trailer for several reasons which I will now tell you.

WHAT?
The story the trailer is trying to portray is so far out. I mean, WHY ARE THEY ESCAPING? What's with all the other people? Why are they hanging upside down on the ceiling?

What's with Dylan O'Brien sliding on the floor? Okay, that, I gotta admit was pretty awesome. I get that they had to make adjustments to the movie, but I hope it doesn't stray too far from the book.

Was that supposed to be RAT MAN?
Why doesn't he look like.. well.. Rat Man? He's supposed to be this lanky, old, and mysterious guy that is cautious about the distance between him and the Gladers. What's with the passing a WCKD folder to Thomas?

Anyway, even though I didn't love the trailer, I did enjoy watching and it made me more excited for the actual movie! The cinematography in a matter of minutes was stunning, just like the first movie. It sets a darker vibe, which is exactly like the 2nd book (amazeballs!).

I'm also looking forward to seeing new cast members add to the story and suspense of it all. James Dashner, the author of the Maze Runner trilogy, was there during the entire shoot and I trust all the decisions he makes regarding the changes from book to movie.

Needless to say, I am so excited to see the movie! And come on, who would deny oneself of Ki Hong Lee a.k.a. Minho in black? People look better in black. Admit it.

The trailer portrayed a quite a different story from the book, if it's good or not, I am yet to know when the movie officially comes out in September!

September, come at me! I am ready for you.


Are you as excited as I am? Share the hype!

The "A" in LAMP,
Andrea

P.S.
WHERE WERE THE CRANKS? I was so ready to be horrified. But I guess they're a surprise and are meant to freak people out in the big screens!

CHEESEBALL BLURBS

Recently I found myself posting things that I felt I needed to post. I realized that this is my blog and I post what I want to and although traffic is good, I'm not posting to be famous or known, and I kind of forgot that during the past few weeks. I started this blog because I love to write and today, that is exactly what I'm going to do.

It's been a long while since I wrote a one-shot or anything original story related and since I have this habit of compiling dialogue or lines or events that randomly pop inside my head when I'm doing something, I decided to share some with you guys.

Most of the lightning ideas I have are about the on-going story I'm working on, Gehenna, but I do have a couple that are just cheesy lines that I think might be useful in the future when I'm working on a fanfic or anything under chick lit or of that sort. I'll also include some of my favorite cheeseball lines from books and movies I love.

Without further ado, the Cheeseball Blurbs blog post!

Yes, that happens to be a picture of cheese and books.

Truly, Madly, Deeply: A Reaction to Zayn's Exit

Truly, madly, deeply
I am foolishly, completely falling
And somehow you kicked all my walls in
So baby say you'll always keep me truly, madly, crazy, deeply in love with you

Warning: This is a very emotional post concerning a certain boy band. If you don't like them or think that this is completely pathetic (e.g. my family), I suggest you stop reading and do something else. If not, then continue. Thank you.

Also, I highly suggest you listen to Truly, Madly, Deepy by One Direction while you read this.

Andrea Reacts: Night Changes Music Video

I know, I know, you're all wondering (or not) why there's suddenly a Sunday blog post. Well, folks, I didn't plan this either. I've never blogged on impulse and I always, always overthink about my post topics, but tonight, or this morning (it's past 3AM from where I am), I just feel the need to release the fangirl caged inside of me. I know some people are going to say this is really boring, but this is really important to me, so you could just skip this post and go on with your lives. =)

The Night Changes Music Video. This 4-minute and a single second video meant the world to me. I teared up when I first watched it (which was two hours ago). I replayed it several times and by several, I mean almost 73 times. This video is just adorable and it basically fulfilled most of my dreams. I mean, seriously, a date with all five of them? I couldn't care less if it went on as breaking all my limbs, my hat being puked on, you catching on fire and me getting spilled by water thingy, getting chased down by police for over speeding, or my ex-boyfriend crashing in. I had an amazing time watching this video. It served as a constant reminder of why, of all the people in the world, I chose to truly fall in love with these five dorks that don't even know I exist.

NIALL'SSMILES ARE THE BEST THINGS ON THIS ENTIRE UNIVERSE AND I FEEL LIKE HE'S SMILING RIGHT AT ME AND ASJGDLHGALDUG WHAT IS AIR

I'd break a thousand bones for you, sweetie.

You are allowed to puke on all my hats.

You arrest him, you arrest me.

Niall, I thought you were Fireproof?
I think you're a little too hot, love. 

Hey, I came in here with you, right? And nothing's going to change that. NOT EVEN THIS GIANT PRICK WHO DECIDES TO SPILL WATER AND PASTA OVER YOUR BEAUTIFUL FACE.


I may not be able to see them in concert in my country next year, but I know that time will come and I will see them.

Patience is a virtue, yeah? ((((Money Management in this case as well HAHA))))

I'll see you guys Monday night for another blog post! =)

Movie Marathon: Hayao Miyazaki Films

For those who are wondering why I'm at home on a Wednesday, it's because the Seniors are taking their National Achievement Tests today and all the undergrads are given the day off. Anyway, I wanted to share one of my favorite things in this world to you guys: Hayao Miyazaki films.

Hayao Miyazaki is a well-known Japanese animator, illustrator, film director, and manga artist. He is the director of the Film company Studio Ghibli. Best known for their animated film creations such as My Neighbor Totoro, Ponyo, Arietty, Spirited Away, Howl's Moving Castle, and Princess Mononoke. These of which are also a few of my favorites.

I'm sure that everyone who is a lover of his works also knows that they are somewhat very lengthy movies, but worth the watch. What I love most about his works is that he shows everyone that he recognizes no boundary for his creations. His movies are set in completely different worlds, each brimming with their own magical elements. He's an amazing illustrator and in my opinion Princess Mononoke and Howl's Moving Castle showcase his talent in illustrating more than the rest.

My first ever Miyazaki film was My Neighbor Totoro. My dad worked abroad for a really long time and he said that watching this film reminded him of me and my sister. Thanks to my dad, I have a lot of Hayao's works and I appreciate them very much. I enjoy watching them again and again (and again). These films continually inspire me to keep creating and keep making worlds of my own as well.
