About My Reviews

You may have noticed my first review below...I know, nothing special. No I don't intend to get all in depth with these things and no I do not plan on being a critic or journalist/writer someday. It's just something I've been wanting to do so that other people can see my casual take on movies/games/TV etc. and maybe it'll help them (or you) decide whether or not they want to fork over their hard earned cash for some entertainment or not. So please people, don't take my reviews seriously lol. That is all..........for now.

Movie Review: Toy Story 3




Pixar never fails to amaze me. And this is arguably their best film yet. Definitely a great film for adults and children alike. It's especially great for us young adults who grew up idolizing Buzz and Woody and the nostalgic factor is always a plus. I'd put this film at par with Toy Story 1 at the very least. You owe it to yourself to go see this movie.

5 out of 5 stars!

NHL Draft 2010

Today I went to the NHL Draft with Sirena and her mom and step-dad. What a great experience. It was my first time ever going to a draft for any sport and it definitely was entertaining in its own way. Basically you are watching all the important people of each NHL team's organization argue and discuss what players they wanna pick, who they wanna trade etc. It's all very political actually. It was a bummer though that Our LA Kings (Sirena's whole family are Kings fans) didn't end up getting the player we were hoping for. Hey, hopefully the organization knows what they are doing. Eh, I'm sure they do. It was also great that the draft was held at the LA Staples Center...home of the Los Angeles Kings! It was very exciting to see all of the Kings fans going crazy. It was very annoying to see all of the Ducks fans even being there. If there are three teams I don't care for it is the Canucks, the Ducks, and the Red Wings. Luckily there were not many Red Wings or Canucks fans in attendance today. Although the Kings did not get the player we were hoping for (the freakin Ducks ended up picking him up by the way) I am excited to see whats in store for the future of the player they did end up going with. Go Kings!

2010 Stanley Cup Champs!!!


Congratulations to the Chicago Blackhawks for winning the 2010 Stanley Cup Championship! It will be very memorable for me since technically it was my first time seeing the Stanley Cup finals as a genuine hockey fan. No my Los Angeles Kings did not win it all this year, but my backup team did (second favorite team)! It was a great final series against the Philadelphia Flyers but Chicago came out on top in game 6. I'm so happy I finally found a sport that doesn't frustrate me and a sport that I can watch from the beginning of the 1st period all the way until the end. I will definitely be watching next season. Until that time I will be focusing on a different cup....The 2010 World Cup!!!! USA! Italy! USA! Italy! (if either team wins I'll be extremely happy lol)
