No Fast Food Anymore...

Today will be the last day at a fast food restaurant for me. I have decided that from 2012 on, I will no longer go to fast food restaurants. I will keep on eating unhealthy, though, because I only choose not to eat at multinationals.
I have been thinking about this for a long time now. I haven't been going to fast food restaurants as regularly as I used to since I became a vegetarian four years ago, and it has always struck me as a bit weird that I didn't eat meat, but I kept buying their vegetarian food.
So now you know.

I hope you all have a great time on New Year's Eve tonight!

Goodbye HipsterForce

I have googled the name HipsterForce, and I found out that it is already the name of a brand of underwear and the name of a kind of famous YouTuber. Because of this, my screen name will now be:

The Shy Hipster

I don't think it fits me as well as HipsterForce, but I'll get used to it.

Favourite Cutie Mark Story?

Frankenweenie (1984) Review

IMDb Rating: 7.2
Rotten Tomatoes Rating:
Notable Cast/Crewmembers: Tim Burton, Shelley Duvall, Sofia Coppola
Genre: Fantasy

I was so glad that I could see this. The one film that started Burton's career. If you are a Burton fan like me (or a fan of darker expressionism in general) , you really can't miss out on this short. It has an eerie darkness over it, but it's still funny.

SPOILERSSPOILERSSPOILERSSPOILERSSPOILERSSPOILERSSPOILERS

A boy is heartbroken when his dog dies, but with electricity and science on his side, he lets his dog come back to life again. Although the neighbours aren't particularly fond of a "Monster Of Frankenstein" version of good ol' Sparky at first sight, they change their minds when Sparky saves the kid from a burning windmill.

IMDb Rating: 6.9
Rotten Tomatoes Rating: 92% on the Tomatometer, 66% of the audience enjoyed it.
Notable Cast/Crewmembers: Paul Reubens, Tim Burton, Elizabeth Daily, Danny Elfman
Genre: Comedy, Family movie

Before I saw this movie, I didn't look funny to me. I only wanted to see it because it was Tim Burton's full-feature debut. After seeing it, I can say that it was nice to watch. Not a spectacular story, but hey, it's a children's movie.

This was a great ending, though it's a pity that they left out a lot of the storylines in the book. I mean, they had two whole films to fit 'em in...

The battle of Hogwarts against Voldemort. I am not going to tell the story here, because if you do not know it, that means you haven't read the books. If you haven't read the books, you shouldn't see the movie.

_______________________
The special effects were certainly better than I remember and the person who wrote the screenplay (was it Rowling herself? I don't know) certainly knows how to write. I especially loved the scene where the main trio is running across the battleground and the music's a bit soft so you only hear the sounds of destruction, and you can see that it is all just too much and they simply can't handle it.
Also, Snape's scene was very touching as well of course, but I needn't tell you, I think.

Batman Forever Review

IMDb Rating: 5.4
Rotten Tomatoes Rating: 44%
Notable Cast/Crew: Val Kilmer, Tommy Lee Jones, Tim Burton, Nicole Kidman, Danny Elfman, Michael Gough, Jim Carrey, Joel Schumacher, Chris O'Donnel, Drew Barrymore,
Genre: Superhero, Action

After reading the film version of the book (Confusing, I know), I thought this would be a great story. It is, in some ways, but in a lot of ways it is also definitely rubbish. The story is actually pretty great and focuses on the psychic problems that Batman has, but they didn't really work that out in the movie. Also, the dialogues consist mainly of one-liners, which is really fun to read, but spoken they sound forced and fake.

__________________________
Edward Nygma, a child prodigy, has always looked up to Bruce Wayne and tries to show him his new brain-wave technology. After he gets rejected, he goes mental and uses his brain-wave thingy to look into the brains of others.
Dr. Chase Meridian, a psychiatrist if I'm right, is very interested in Batman and his scarred psyche. She falls in love with him and at the same time falls in love with Bruce Wayne, not knowing that they are the same person.
Two-Face doesn't have a big role, he is just being Two-Face.
Robin saves the circus of a bomb, placed by Two-Face, but watches his parents and brother being killed by Two-Face's henchmen. After being convinced by Batman (he finds out that Batman=Bruce Wayne) that killing Two-Face isn't the right thing to do, he becomes Batman's protegé.
__________________________
If you only look at the story, I think this is the best Batman film of the Burton trio. Real comic fans shouldn't see it, though, because there are a few things that aren't the same in the movie as in the comics.

Top 2000 Is Awesome

In The Netherlands we have this thing called the Top 2000. It's a list consisting of 2000 songs, and in November people can vote on their all-time favourite song. That means that it's not new songs or pop songs, but there is a lot of classic rock, jazz and rock 'n roll. In December, from noon on Christmas day until midnight on New Year's Eve, they play that whole list.
Almost everybody listens to it, partly because it's chock-full of awesome music and because it's some sort of tradition.
Also, the top three is almost always the same:

3. Avonden - Boudewijn de Groot (A Dutch artist, that's why he has a weird name)

2. Hotel California - The Eagles

1. Bohemian Rhapsody - Queen

The numbers two and three can shift sometimes, but it is really uncommon that Queen isn't number one.

[Senior Ed Bloom]: "The milkman just dropped dead on the porch." Because see, my mother was banging the milkman.

[Senior Ed Bloom]: Most men, they'll tell you a story straight through. It won't be complicated, but it won't be interesting either.

[Sandra Bloom]: [of Edward to her fiance] He's almost a stranger, and I prefer him to you!

Genre: Drama, Fantasy

This is the third time I've seen it, and it just keeps getting better. It's funny, touching, the visuals are AMAZING and the acting is great.
Definitely one of my favourites.


SPOILERSPOILERSSPOILERSSPOILERSSPOILERSSPOILERSSPOILERSSPOILERS

The story is about a guy whose father is dying. Since he's always had the feeling he doesn't know his father, he tries to talk him into telling the 'real' story of his past. The original story, featuring werewolfs, giants and witches is told throughout the main story and takes up most of the time.
In the end, the son learns that his father didn't always tell the truth, but his stories were certainly based on things that really happened. The story was just exaggerated to make it more entertaining.
_______________________
Though this entire movie is great, I need a special shoutout to the scene with Jenny Hill. She has always been in love with Edward (main character), and she tries to kiss him, but he doesn't love her. That sounds like your average rejection scene, but it is certainly not. The acting is really subtle, but that just emphasizes the feeling of the scene.

Batman Returns Review

IMDb Rating: 6.9
Rotten Tomatoes: 79%
Notable Cast/Crewmembers: Michael Keaton, Tim Burton, Danny DeVito, Michelle Pfeiffer, Christopher Walken, Michael Gough, Danny Elfman
Genre: Superhero, Action, Crime

Even though I didn't like it as much as I'd hoped to, it is still a great movie. Tim Burton had a lot more influence on the visuals than in Batman and I thought the costumes were beautiful. It is, however, not as awesome as Batman Begins, because there is a lack of plot.

____________________
The Penguin, a guy who was abandoned by his parents as a kid because of his hideous exterior, wants to take over Gotham, because there is a power plant that is polluting the water. Meanwhile, a woman, Selena, transforms into Catwoman after being pushed out of a window by her boss. She becomes Batman's love interest.
____________________
What I really liked was the scene at the ball, where everybody was wearing a mask except for Bruce and Selena. This shows that their personas are actually their real personality, and Selena and Bruce are just masks.
____________________
The Penguin: You're just jealous, because I'm a genuine freak and you have to wear a mask!
Batman: You might be right.

Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas Review

IMDb Rating: 7.6
Rotten Tomatoes Rating: 40% on the Tomatometer, but 90% of the audience enjoyed it. I usually just take the Tomatometer rating, but I thought that there was too much of a difference.
Notable Cast/Crewmembers: Johnny Depp, Terry Gilliam, Benicio Del Toro, Gary Busey, Tobey Maguire, Mark Harmon
Genre: Drugs, Comedy

Personally I didn't like the movie, but I can understand why other people like it. I mostly look at the story when I watch a movie, but Terry Gilliam is more of a visual director.

_______________________
The story is about two guys and drugs. Yep. That's all I can make of it, because the storyline doesn't make sense (to me at least) at all. It has beautiful visual designing, though. To be honest, I only watched it because it has a cult status.

Christmas Songs I Like/Dislike/Can't Stand/Whatever

Whether you like them or not, you won't escape these songs:

1. All I Want For Christmas Is You. Even though it is really over the top (or maybe BECAUSE it's over the top), it's a nice song to sing along. Don't look at the lyrics though, because it isn't one of the best written songs ever.

2. Stop The Cavalry. Though this isn't a real Christmas song, but a protest song, it is in my opinion the best song in this list.

3. Last Christmas. Almost the same as number 1.

4. Feliz navidad. It'll give you a lot of energy if you sing along.

5. Thank God It's Christmas. I FUCKING LOVE QUEEN!

Merry Christmas in advance!

Doctor Who Quotes

Oh my, I love Doctor Who, I love quotes, so here are a few quotes from Doctor Who:

[River]: Well, I was on my way to this gay gypsy bat mitsvah for the disabled, when I suddenly thought: "Gosh, the Third Reich's a bit rubbish, I think I'll kill the Führer."

[Donna Noble]: You fought her off with a water pistol. I bloody love you!

[Donna Noble]: How about you, are you alright?
[The Doctor]: Oh, I'm always all right.
[Donna Noble]: Is "All right" special time-lord code for... not really all right at all?
[The Doctor]: Why?
[Donna Noble]: Because I'm alright too.

[Amy Pond]: You look human.
[The Doctor]: No, you look Timelord. We came first.

[Liz 10]: What are you doing?
[The Doctor]: [Adjusting machinery] The worst thing I'll ever do. I'm going to pass a massive electrical charge through the Star Whale's brain - should knock out its higher functions, leaving it a vegetable. The ship will still fly, but the whale won't feel it.
[Amy Pond]: That'll be like killing it.
[The Doctor]: Look, three options: One, I let the Star Whale continue, in unendurable agony for hundreds more years; Two, I kill everyone on this ship; Three, I murder a beautiful, innocent creature as painlessly as I can. And then, I... I find a new name, because I won't be The Doctor anymore.
[Liz 10]: There must be something we can do, there must be another way...
[The Doctor]: Nobody talk to me. Nobody
[violently slams hand down on console]
[The Doctor]: *HUMAN* has anything to say to me today!

[Amy Pond]: What if you were really old, and really kind and lonely, your whole race dead. What couldn't you do then? If you were that old, and that kind, and the very last of your kind, you couldn't just stand there and watch children cry.

[Amy]: Hey... Paisley. Ever fancied someone you know you shouldn't?
[Bracewell]: What?
[Amy]: Hurts, doesn't it? But kind of a good hurt.

On another note: It's almost Christmas time!

30DMLP:FIMC Day Seven

Favourite and least favourite song?

-I liked Winter Wrap Up and Find A Pet Song. They are both extremely catchy and Broadway-like at the same time. I didn't really like Art Of The Dress, because I listened to it as a song of its own and not as a take on Sondheim's Putting It Together.

Great Family Dinner Quote

Last week my family held their annual Christmas dinner (a whole week before Christmas!). I was talking to my cousin's wife, and we started to talk about Australia, since she's from Australia and I'm going there next year. She told me that, since we are going to the South-East going, we were probably going to meet a lot of Australian rednecks. I asked her if they were any different than American rednecks, and she said:

"Nah. They're not as dangerous because they don't have shotguns."

For some reason I found that extremely entertaining, so I remembered it.

Sophie Scholl-Die Letzten Tagen Review

IMDb Rating: 7.8
Rotten Tomatoes Rating: 87%
Notable Cast/Crewmembers: Julia Jentsch
Genre: Psychological Drama, WWII


We watched this during German class, because we are reading the book "Die Weisse Rose". I loved it, though the supporting cast wasn't really convincing, but maybe that has to do with me not being used to German acting.
SPOILERSSPOILERSSPOILERSSPOILERSSPOILERS

This is based on the life of Sophia Scholl, one of the founders of the resistance Die Weisse Rose. The film tells of her last days before her execution. What was exceptionally beautiful was the end, where you don't see the members beheaded, but you can hear it. It's really horrific, but also beautiful.

My least favourite episode is ANY episode with the Cutie Mark Crusaders. I can't stand them, because they are so DUMB. Sure, they are cute, but they are so damn annoying.

Batman Begins Review

IMDb Rating: 8.3
Rotten Tomatoes Rating: 85%
Notable Cast/Crewmembers: Christopher Nolan, Christian Bale, Cillian Murphy, Liam Neeson, Morgan Freeman, Michael Caine, Katie Holmes, Gary Oldman, Linus Roache
Genre: Action, Superhero

This is the best Batman movie I've seen so far. Literally, that doesn't mean a lot, since I've only watched three Batman movies. But for the sake of this review, let's pretend I know a lot about Batman and I know a lot about films.

NO SPOILERS THIS TIME BECAUSE I'M TOO LAZY TO WRITE DOWN THE WHOLE STORY AND WHY THE HELL DO I WRITE THIS IN CAPS LOCK?

This is the origin story of Batman. How his character has evolved since his parents' death and how he became interested in fighting crime. It is actually through this film that I became interested in background stories of people, and I became interested in Batman.
Since it was a long time ago that I'd watched it, I decided to watch it again.
The best things about this film:
1. The visual stuff. It's so beautiful. There's one scene where there is a giant flock of bats flying around, and you almost cannot see that it's CGI'd. So I thought that they had just trained a lot of bats to fly in certain ways...HERPADERPADERP
2. The acting/casting. Especially Cillian Murphy. He has the perfect just-a-little-too-fragile-but-still-intimidating look for Scarecrow.
3. The stroy. Though there are a few flaws (Batman leaving someone to die is OK, but he does think that his parents' death was his fault...WHAT?) it is still a beautiful story.

My Little Pokémon

In the spirit of the My Little Pony Challenge, here's a Pokémon/MLP cross-over.
(To the melody of Giggle At The Ghosties)

When I was a newbie trainer heading towards Pewter City The Pokemon along the way would make me feel quite shitty I'd run as fast as I could From every single brawl But Professor Oak said that'll never work if you wanna catch them all...

2. Arrested Development. Don't know why people think it is awesome, but I want to find out!

3. Torchwood. Because of Doctor Who.

4. Naruto.

5. Shugo Chara! Because of reasons.

6. Invader ZIM. It's a cult show, so it's probably epic.

30DHPC Day Twenty-Nine

Did you enjoy A Very Potter Musical?

-I am sad to inform you that I haven't watched it yet. I always seem to forget to, though I really do want to see it. I'll hope I'll get around to it this weekend.

Songs Glee Made Worse Or Bettah

as I have said before, I do watch Glee. Not because the plot is interesting (after season one it was rubbish) but because they really do improve some songs. However, they fail epicly as well. Here's a list:

Better (in my opinion)
1. Every Lady Gaga song
2. Forget You
3. New York

Worse (in my opinion)
1. Somebody To Love (The Queen song of course)
2. Valerie
3. Sweet Transvestite

There will be more!

Friends Clapping

I used to think that clapping to the Friends intro was lame (but then I took an arr...NO! THE JOKE IS DEAD!) but I just found out that it is actually quite common. I thought only my family was awkward (in a good way) enough to do that, but apparently lots of people do it!
Humans, I am proud of you. It's these little things in life that make me happy. The big things make me happy as well, by the bye. Gosh, by the bye sound even weirder than by the way. Anyway, here's a success-Freddie to celebrate:

Uncooth

For some reason I have a firm hatred towards the word uncooth. I think it's because it sounds like uncool. It could also be that I have no idea what it means.
This concludes my rant on the word uncooth.

Would you rather own the Invisibility Cloak, the Resurrection Stone or the Elder Wand?

Book Challenge

Oh my, how stupid. In the last post I wrote about my book challenge, while I haven't even told you what the challenge consists of. It's easy: I read a book every month (I'm not really a reader, so for me that's a lot) and blog about it in detail. This is my schedule:

January: Much Ado About Nothing - William Shakespeare
February: Abraham Lincoln, Vampire Hunter - Seth Grahame-Smith
March: Old Possum's Book Of Practical Cats - T.S. Eliot
April: The Remains Of The Day - Kazuo Ishiguro
May: Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde - Robert Louis Stevenson
June: Paper Towns - John Green
July: Big Fish: A Novel Of Mythic Proportions - Daniel Wallace

Batman Returns Trivia

I know, I know. I spend way too much time talking about:
-Tim Burton films
-Batman
-Films in general

But I've just seen Batman Returns, and I just had to share some trivia about it.
[Source: IMDb]
SPOILERSSPOILERSSPOILERSSPOILERSSPOILERSSPOILERS

-Composer Danny Elfman was one of the off-screen tomato and lettuce throwers during the Penguin's botched speech

-Danny DeVito spent two hours a day in make-up

-In Tom Mankiewicz's script for the first movie which featured the Penguin, he was described as "a tall, proper-looking, thin man".

-According to the book 'Movie Magic' by Robin Cross, Penguin's army consisted of real penguins, actors in glass fiber suits, animatronic puppets controlled by puppeteers, and computer animation. A technique called flocking was used where several penguins would imitate a master penguin, allowing control over large numbers.

-The final Christmas ball scene is quite symbolic: since it is a masque party all the guests are in disguise. The only two exceptions are Bruce Wayne and Selina Kyle. This implies that their real personalities are Batman and Catwoman respectively, and that their public appearance without a costume is just a disguise for the society.

Happy Feet Two Review

IMDb Rating: 5.8
Rotten Tomatoes Rating: 41%
Notable Cast/Crewmembers: Elijah Wood, P!nk, Robin Williams, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Hugo Weaving
Genre: Animation, Musical, Comedy

I must say I'm surprised by these negative reviews. To be honest, Happy Feet Two is one of the best animation movies I've ever seen. Sure, the story isn't all that (though it is still way better than most animation movie stories), but this movie was great in songs, jokes and it looked awesome. I can definitely recommend it.

SPOILERSSPOILERSSPOILERSSPOILERSSPOILERSSPOILERSSPOILERS

The penguin Mumble from the first movie is all grown up now and has a kid of his own. He gets in all sorts of trouble, but knows how to get out of them as well. Meanwhile, a krill decides that he doesn't want to end up at the bottom of the food chain and takes his slightly hesitant friend with him to be free. Also, a LOT of music. You can't even call it covered, more re-imagined, in a good way.

Nineteen years later, are you happy the way it turned out or did you wish something was different?

-I'd love to hear more about Luna, like what happened to her. Also, I'd like to know if there are still people who think the Death Eaters were right. All the tension is gone in the epilogue...

Tiny Tim

A friend of my told that there was a Spongebob song that was sung by Tiny Tim. Now, I didn't know anything about Tiny Tim, ecxept that people think that he looks like Tim Burton. I looked up the song (Living In The Sunlight: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qF4RCOcz9ow ) and I read the comments. I was surprised to find that there was almost no nice comment to be found. Sure, expected that a lot of people would comment on his high-pitched voice, but they also thought the song itself was terrifying.

I enjoy it, but appearantly I'm the only one.

Another Unpopular Opinion

I hate the Disney classics. The stories are predictable, they give the wrong view on how relationships should work and the songs are rhyme-forced. Also, it's kind of funny how almost all Disney princesses are Caucasian. Even Tiana (The Princess And The Frog) and Mulan (Mulan...Obviously) that should be afro-american and Chinese respectively have a slight Caucasian appearance. Mulan more than Tiana, though.

-HipsterForce

Unpopular Opinions

These are my unpopular opinions. If you don't agree with me and want to convince me that my opinion is wrong, respond nicely and we can dicuss as adults. I like discussions, but not internet style.

1. I don't like bananas.
2. I prefer Matt Smith as the Doctor over David Tennant.
3. I think people who are skinny to the bone are as beautiful as normal sized people. I wouldn't recommend it though, since that means you're almost dying. It doesn't mean that I think people who are not skinny are not beautiful. I know a lot of people who are normal sized or downright obese, who are some of the most beautiful people I just don't get how being skinny can be called ugly.
4. I like people with weird teeth or weird eyes. They have something endearing over them.
5. I don't like Lady Gaga.

Please don't be too harsh to me :(

30DHPC Day Twenty-Three

Any part of the books/movies that made you cry?

Christmas Movies

Since I'm bored, I'm going to make a list of Christmas and Pre-Christmas movies:

30DHPC Day Twenty-Two

Harry Potter or Twilight?

(This shouldn't be too hard to guess, since I'm doing a Harry Potter Challenge, not a Twilight Challenge)

-Harry Potter, definitely. A few reasons:
1. If you look at the actual story, nothing really happens in the Twilight series. There is a lot of build up to a climax in every book, and everytime the climax is avoided in some weird way. In New Moon and Breaking Dawn Stephenie Meyer built up to big fights with the Volturi, which ultimately didn't happen. At all.
In the Harry Potter series they have an ingenious and climactic "battle" at the end of every book.

2. J.K. Rowling got Bellatrix killed by Molly Weasley to show that love for the family always triumphs over obsessive. Ironicly enough, this obsessive love is the exact same kind of love Bella Swan feels for Edward.

3. The HP movies have better (and British) actors. Although it's not really fair that I say this, since the only Twilight movie I've seen is the first one, and I only saw the first part. After that I got bored.

4. Edward takes all the scary stuff out of being a vampire. People think vampires are cool because they are dangerous, though you can't tell by their looks. Edward is as scary as Fluttershy.

People I Wish I Could Have Met

I made a list about beautiful soundtracks and I forgot to mention Requiem For A Dream! The horror!
If you haven't seen this movie, go to a movie rental store thingy and RENT IT! Even if you're not interested in beautiful drug stories with wonderful actors at all, you should see this movie only because of the amazing soundtrack.

30DHPC Day Twenty-One

If you could bring back one character out of all the characters who died, who would you choose?

(I kind of rephrased the question, because it was written rubbishly. And yes, rubbishly is now a word)

SPOILERS! (If you say this in an Alex Kingston voice, you are a true Doctor Who fan)

-I could make this easy for myself and just say Bellatrix because she is my favourite character, but that would be stupid.
I think that I would bring back Tonks, because she has a son. It's also Remus' son of course, but I don't really think that the baby would have needed Remus, 'cause he never fights for something. Tonks would have been the best mother ever.

Do you prefer the books or the films?

-I think I enjoy the films more, because I'm a fan of British cinema (just saying in case you hadn't noticed). However, the books are so funny and charming, and there are definitely a few books that are better than the films. To be honest, I think the books and films are so extremely different that you can't really compare them.

Lauren Cooper Vs. The Prime Minister

Love Actually Review

IMDb Rating: 7.8
Rotten Romatoes Rating: 63%
Notable Cast/Crewmembers: Alan Rickman, Richard Curtis, Hugh Grant, Emma Thompson, Liam Neeson, Laura Linney, Keira Knightly, Bill Nighy, Colin Firth, Rowan Atkinson
Genre: Romantic comedy

I LOVE THIS MOVIE. There is absolutely no reason why this is rated lower than an 8 (or 80%) on both Rotten Tomatoes and IMDb. It's funny, the actors are awesome, the story is credible in contrast to most American or Dutch romantic comedies.
Definitely one of my favourites.
_____________________________

The story follows a few people in London, a few weeks before Christmas. They are all related to each other (friends, siblings, colleagues, etc.) and they all have problems with love. The story is too complicated to type out, I suggest you just watch it and enjoy.

30DHPC Day Seventeen

Are you excited about The Deathly Hallows movie or scared it won’t do the book justice?

(Since I have already seen the movie, I will tell you my thoughts about it.)

-I was a bit disappointed that they chose to make it an action movie instead of explaining the story (What happened to Dumbledore's sistah?). I also thought the special effects were a tad bit cheap (since when does one explode when one is Avada Kedavra'd? -Referring to Bellatrix's death). Nevertheless, the actors were great as usual, the costumes were beautiful and overall it's just an amazing story.

-HipsterForce

Useless Trivia Part Two

1. Tom Felton, the boy/man who is Draco Malfoy in the Harry Potter series, had never read the books when he was cast as Draco.

2. There used to be a public toilet in London, where you could look to the street from inside the cabin, but you couldn't look into the cabin from the outside.

3. There was an artist who made a purse of her cat. She received death threats from people who thought it was cruel to do that to your cat. Irony?

4. The fruit kiwi was named after the bird, not vice versa.

5. Wednesday, February and colonel are some of the most annoying words, since you either pronounce it with a letter that you don't write (Curr-nul, while there is no "r" in colonel) or you don't pronounce a letter that IS in the word (Wensday, though it's WeDnesday). This is really annoying if you're still learning English. I speak from experience.
