Wallace and Gromit

For those unfamiliar with this cartoon, Wallace and Gromit are the main 2 characters of 4 British animated cartoons made by Nick Park of Aardman Studios. Not alot of people in the US are familiar with this cartoon, but soon learned about them by seeing the movie Curse of the Were-Rabbit. This cartoon is referred to as claymation and filmed by using stop motion clay animation. Wallace is an inventor who lives in Wigan, Manchester and is a cheese enthusiast, mainly Wensleydale. Along with him is his intelligent dog Gromit, who communicates through body and facial expressions. For the voice of Wallace, he is voiced by British veteran actor Peter Sallis. BBC News calls this the best loved and best known stars to come out of the UK.

How can you not love Gromit? He's so cute!!

Sorry to be or sound so predictable, but I just adore this cartoon. I never really knew what it was until 6th grade. My then teacher for 6th grade, Mrs. Scott, got me forever hooked on it. She loved that cartoon and on the last day of school, we, as in my class, all watched Wallace and Gromit A Close Shave, Thw Wrong Trousers and A Grand Day Out. I have a little stuffed animal of Gromit at home, it's so cute!! I wish I could have gotten a stuffed animal of the rabbit Hutch from the Curse of the Were-Rabbit movie.

The Beatles in Retrospect

You know how if someone would use the term retrospect or something to that effect, meaning to look back on something? Well, I thought about making this post of images and things about The Fab Four as some call them. They're one of my favorite bands, have been since 12th grade and will always be my favorite!!

30 Day Movie Challenge. Part 1

I was inspired by a fellow blogger named Taysha the Film Geek to do a blog about some of my favorite movies.

Basically, I have a feeling I'll end up adding movies I've seen so many times I can probably watch them in my head while sleeping.

Day 01: Best Movie You Saw Last Year.
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, pt. 1

This was, by far out of all of them, the best one. I would not recommend it for kids because there is a bit of bad language in this movie, mainly the characters saying things like 'bloody' or hell or whatever, and also there is a scene of very brief nudity between Emma Watson and Daniel Radcliffe. It is in a scene where Ron is having a dream that Hermione likes Harry more than him, and also you get to see Daniel in nothing more than boxers.

Sweet! My wish has come true, lol! A hundred Daniels!! Lol!

Hey Ginny, switch ya!!
