In My Opinion....

Although, every once in the awhile I love a good movie re-make, I usually enjoy originality in my movies these days. Perhaps, because most movies lack originality. I recently watched two movies Fame(2009) and 500 Days of Summer.

Personally, I was never really a fan of the original movie Fame, but love the soundtrack of the musical. To be honest, I can't even remember a lot of the original movie; since it bored me. I expected a lot of 2009's remake though. The movie had too many "creative differences" from the original and the play. It just lacked so much, and I can see why the director of the original movie hated this version. Bottom line, not worth seeing.

500 Days of Summer on the other hand, was extremely original. The movie is cute,creative and funny. I would recommend the movie to anyone and everyone. It is definitely a boy meets girl movie,boy falls in love.. but with a twist. Definitely will brighten your day and make you smile. Plus the lead actor is uber cute = )

As for books, I am currently reading "Something Borrowed" by Emily Giffin. I have not yet finished it but am a Chapter or two away from being done. I would definitely recommend this book to someone who was looking for a pleasant light read. The premise of the book, is Rachel this normal type-A lawyer has an affair with her best friend since elementary school Darcy's fiance. The book is realistic but will have you rooting for Rachel, even if you are not an adulteress most women can easily relate to the life style and personality of Rachel. Unless, you're a Darcy... then maybe you won't like this book. The book is cute and not completely original, but not something you've really read before. Once I'm finished I plan on reading "The Lovely Bones" by Alice Sebold. I want to see the movie SO SO bad, but I am a firm believer in reading the books before seeing the movies,mainly because the book is ALWAYS better then the movie. Then after that I will read the follow-up book to "Something Borrowed" called "Something Blue".

Not That My Opinion on these movies or book really matter, but I thought I would share. Besides, that life in Burbank has been nice. Minus the crazy rain storms we've been receiving, which has kept me inside... no offense to southern Californians, but they don't really know how to drive in the rain. So I opted to stay of the roads while it was raining, which is annoying since I need to go run some errands. Hopefully, today won't be so rainy.
