Did ya'll see...

the trailer for The Chronicles of Narnia: the Voyage of the Dawn Treader? It looks sooo good!!! I'm so glad they finally found someone to make their films after Disney dumped them. I was afraid they wouldn't end up finishing them off. They are great movies, though I liked the first better than the second. but the second was still pretty good. I hope they stay closer to the book this time though (because C.S. Lewis was a genius!!!! :)), but we shall see. :) Either way, can't wait for December!!! :D

This is so cool!

My favorite YouTube person theheartrender (whom I indeed would favorite if I had a YouTube account. haha. I really ought to get one, as much as I love YouTube...anyways. LOL! :)) did another beautiful harp cover by ear of the song Hot Air Balloon by Owl City. It's gorgeous!! She's so talented! I just loooove harp music! She does the best covers by ear, they are perfectly accurate to the actual song! I don't how to embed a link- I'm not the greatest with technology. :D - but here's the link and you can copy and paste it. :)

Check it out, it's amazing! :)

WHOA.

Okay, so did ya'll see the Twilight Saga: Eclipse? What did ya'll think? You know what I thought? One Word: WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (more words:) I LOVED it! LOL! :) It wasn't exactly like the book and the book is better, but can anyone honestly think of a book that isn't better than it's movie? (I think the reason for that is just that there's a lot lost in the translation process because you don't get to hear what the character is thinking or how they perceive things.) It was a REALLY GOOD sort of different though!! :D The screenwriter (Melissa Rosenberg) finally realized that the lines from the books are the ones that fans love and is getting better and better at just keeping the originals. she did pretty good with New Moon, but Eclipse was the best one as scripts go. Though there really is a good sense of humor that she added throughout the films, not always from the books, but it always fits well and makes us laugh.
And the director (David Slade)! Again WOW. :) I was pretty dubious when I heard that he was directing it, because he's primarily a horror movie kind of guy, and you could see that at some points in the film, but this was a tense story, what with the sadistic newborn army and all. haha. :) But my expectations were very pleasantly exceeded. He blended the action, humor, romance, and tension expertly, so that it flowed flawlessly together. It was very artfully done, I was really impressed. Of course they took things out that I would've loved to see, but when you've only got two hours and you're condensing a nearly 600 page book... well, they couldn't possibly fit everything (though that would be super awesome! LOL! :)), and they did pretty good deciding what to put in and leave out. I can't wait to see the deleted scenes for this one (hopefully there will be something about Alice's Porsche! loved that! haha. :))! The graphics and special effects were really good too! I loved the part where the Cullens and Quiluets are chasing Victoria along the treaty line! It looked so real (except for the vampires and werewolves! haha. :))! Seriously though, i can't wait to see the making of! :D That'll be awesome! I have to hand it to David Slade, the guy did amazingly awesome. Let's just say Bill Condon (director hired for both Breaking Dawn parts) has BIG shoes to fill! Can't wait to see how he does, though I don't know how it could possibly be better than Eclipse! LOL! :D
What was yall's reaction to the music? Personally, the more I'm listening to the soundtrack the more I love it, Definitely my favorite one so far, like the movie! :D
And the score! :o At first (when I listened to it the day before the movie came out), I didn't really like it that much, but whether it was seeing it fit perfectly into the movie or hearing it more, it has really grown on me! :) Howard Shore did sooo good fitting the mood of the story and it was nice of him to give a nod to the two composers that proceeded him in his music. For Carter Burwell (Twilight), he took a bit a darker feel for the score as well as adding in Clair de Lune (a personal favorite of mine-not just because it was in these movies. :D), and for Alexandre Desplat (New Moon) though you can;t hear it as much, you tell when you're playing it (as someone on YouTube has put together a rendition of Jacob's Theme with sheet music to keep me from going insane till the official stuff comes out. haha. Compliments to dvrancic, from YouTube. You did phenomanal! It sounds just like the CD! :)) that much of the left hand and a bit of the right is the similar, just in a different key. That's only Jacob's Theme though, for the rest, I suppose I will (unfortunately. :| haha. :)) have to wait and see! :)
Okay, so this is really long. Sorry. *sheepish grin* i get really excited and tend to go on and on. haha. :) Hope ya'll enjoy the novel! LOL! :) God bless!! <3

Hello!

Hello Davison Sisters! :) Thanks for following my blog! What's the name of your blog? I'd love to check it out! :D God bless and thanks again!! :)

Good movie...

A movie that I saw recently that was AWESOME was Letters To Juliet. I loved it!!!!! It was so sweet but also realistic - and very funny!!! I would definitely recommend it to pretty much anyone, it was amazingly clean for a movie these days, I was really impressed by it. And they used Love Story by Taylor Swift in the movie, which, of course, made it even better! :) Can't wait till it comes out on DVD so i can see it again! LOL! :)

Eclipse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow, I cannot wait for this movie! LOL! :) 13 days!!!!! I've been on YouTube (I really love YouTube! LOL!:)) watching scenes and sneak peeks. there's a lot more there than on iTunes. Though there are a few good ones there. So, what did you guys think of the soundtrack? Personally, at first I was kinda disappointed, but the more I listened to it, the more i liked it. It's very different from the others, but I assume the movie will be also. I can't wait to see where they put them all!!! :) My personal favorite on the soundtrack was 'Ours' by The Bravery. It kinda makes me want to dance! haha. :) The score comes out on the 29th of this month and I am VERY much anticipating that!!! i love Jacob's Theme! i can't wait till the piano music comes out! LOL! :) So, how do ya''ll think the movie will be based on what they've released so far? It looks pretty good to me; scary, but good! :) Can't wait to see it!!!!!!!!! :)

Amazing...

Last year, after I saw Twilight for the first time, I fell in love with the music. I was really wanting to learn Bella's Lullaby on the piano. I searched YouTube for a few days before I found one that actually sounded right. This particular arrangement was by theheartrender, and she did an amazing job. She figured it out by ear and her arrangement is actually better than the original sheet music! Recently, when i was looking for something else, i stumbled across her again and saw this:

It's Fireflies by Owl City on the harp. i particularly thought of you, Really Tall. :) WOW! It's phenomenal! She does such a beautiful job, i could listen to it all day! She's SO talented! Her name is Kat and she's 16. she plays the piano and the harp. And she's a Christian. seriously, look her up! she's awe-some! :) She did a really neat Narnia cover where she took bits and pieces from the different songs on the score and made a song out of all the morphed pieces. It's really beautiful!
Anyways, hope you all enjoy the vid! :D God bless!!
