..But before we get to that, I'll start this blog with something entertaining for those who are not interested in me talking about my boring life. Its a very popular video, and when I saw it I laughed hysterically.
If this was a real divorce, I'd be even more entertained. This just got me to thinking about how I'd love to have some sort of staged dance at MY wedding, but I was thinking more along the lines of my husband and I's first dance being epic. Like the dance at the end of Dirty Dancing. Unfortunately, I don't believe I will ever convince him to actually do it.
R.I.P. Patrick Swayze
Moving beyond that, I wanted to talk about the comeback of Tim Burton-esque style films. I recently went and saw the CG film 9, and I have to say I was fairly impressed. Although not a claymation, it was very well done (and I don't believe it would have worked out well in clay.) In essence, our world is destroyed by the machines we created, and our only hope of preserving humanity is a bunch of post-apocalyptic dolls created by a scientist I quite liked the character/monster designs and its something I would buy. Not sure about how much the whole saving humanity plot really is supposed to work, and there are allot of unanswered questions...but the doll's basic story is good.
Tim Burton is not the director, but is a producer. The cast features Elijah Wood, Jennifer Connelley, Crispin Glover, Martin Landau, Christopher Plumber, and John C. Reily. What a cast!
The music in the trailer is by Coheed and Cambria and I believe it is called Welcome Home. Bear with me for the lady blabbing about the movie, she is quickly finished and the official trailer directly follows:
Not long ago, another wonderful animated movie was released, and my fiance rolls his eyes and sighs when he arrives home and I'm watching it for the 50th time. Coraline. And yes, this one is claymation. I'd love to see more movies like this in the future. I loved Nightmare Before Christmas and was excited about Burton's newest claymation movie. I was quickly disappointed when Corpse Bride...well, sucked. Coraline made me feel gleeful once more. Featuring Dakota Fanning and Terri Hatcher (of Desperate Housewives fame.)
Its so very original! I love it! And I love the cat. :)

I'll wrap it up here. Things have been insane in the last month. I originally started this post mid-August. Since then we have moved, and Larry is no more. Well, he isn't dead...just out of our lives for all eternity. *Angels Sing.* I didn't play Sims 2 for long before I got tired of fulfilling all of my Sims retarded wants and desires (WooHoo with 6 Sims? What a whore!) So I quit. I didn't get very far in KOTOR 2 either considering our move, and I didn't play Viva Pinata at all. I did, however, start into Eternal Sonata. Very, very good. I highly recommend it for RPG players. I also played GR2004 for a week straight.
Alas, I didn't start Juan's filly either. I am too busy to do something like that for free. I am thinking about entering my yearlings in a local show in October and showing them halter, but we'll see.
