The Pink Rock, Percy Jackson vs Harry Potter and Alice in F*cking Wonderland

It's 3.31 AM on a Monday morning and here I am yet again, unable to fall asleep even though I've been trying to sleep since 9.30 PM. But goodie, besides Facebook-stalking people and staring at the clock, I've watched two episodes of How I Met Your Mother and three episodes of The Big Bang Theory. Man, I love those two series. What would life be without them? And then I watched The Tooth Fairy and Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Lightning Thief.

The Tooth Fairy
was kind of...odd to me. It isn't something that you'd think someone like Dwayne Johnson (The Rock) to star in. The last film I've watched starring him was The Game Plan and it was also quite ...'different'. Let's just say that it is a movie you watch with your 5 year old kid on a lazy Sunday afternoon. It is a family movie after all and I didn't say it was bad, I just think it is a movie that is very unlikely I'll want to watch twice, considering I'm not 5. But trust me, the best part about the movie was seeing a full grown man in a bright pink fairy costume together with huge fury pink wings. That is enough to make you drop down from the pain of laughing. Overall, I'd rate it 4/10.

Now, Percy Jackson & Olympians: The Lightning Thief started out as a movie I thought I'd be bored watching but right after the evil looking creature flew across the hall, I knew I'd like this show. And it was a good movie. Loved the graphics and the light effects, though I can't help but to think it has a similar concept as Harry Potter. I feel this is the movie I'd love to watch with friends, and I do recommend watching it with your kids. It tells a story of friendship, honour, love and adventure. It isn't too 'threatening', so you wouldn't feel gory after watching it. Nevertheless, I there could be more things that could be done with the movie to make it more interesting. Overall, I'd rate it 6.5/10.

I'm waiting for the 11th March. And you all know what 11th March means?!!! ALICE IN WONDERLAND. YAYYYY!!! Alice in F*cking Wonderland yaalll!!! I can't wait!! Johnny Depp is so cute. I've managed to resist the temptation of reading any reviews or critics about the movie, because I want to have absolutely NO expectiations at all. I'm going to have so much fun watching Johnny Depp playing the Mad Hatter. And Anne Hathaway is so beautiful, she'd look amazing as the White Queen.

Well.

It's nearly 4 AM now, and I still can't sleep. I'm going to hate myself at work. Why do I always do this to myself? I always sleep all day on Saturday and then not sleep at all the night before work. Especially on Mondays. I swear, it's like a curse.

Gonna go re-watch more episodes of The Big Bang Theory and try to fall asleep.

Adios.
