Hello!

With all the excitement of starting a blog, I just jumped right into a movie review without introducing myself first, very sorry about that.  

My name is Nicole, nice to meet you and thank you for reading my blog. Hopefully we can talk about books, movies and maybe even the occasional video game with each other.  That is the reason after all why I started to blog or more like aspire to blog.  I'm still learning how this all works after all.  

Originally I wanted to create a YouTube channel or (BookTube) channel because I love watching YouTube videos on what people are reading, the reviews and what new books people got.  That I thought I could totally do that as well.  But sadly when I made "practice" book reviews I didn't feel like I was myself so that is a work in progress.  Maybe one day I'll make a video and be confident enough to post it but till then I'll be here just a typing away.  My friend actually suggested blogging to me, I never thought I could do it because I'm not a very good writer.  My grammar skills are horrible and I'm not a very good speller either.  I will try my best to make sense but in reality I won't. 

I hope to start reading the Host soon by Stephenie Meyer, since it is going to be made into a movie after all so I got to know what its all about. I know I'm a little late to start reading this book. But I wasn't sure if it would be something I'd like on a side note: my goodness it looks massive! Totally could kill a zombie with that book. I'll have to remember that just in case for a zombie apocalypse.

For movies I'm so looking forward to the Hobbit I know its a ways away (well not that many ways anymore really) but still the excitement is in my heart.

  

I started watching American Horror story,  oh my goodness it scared me but I love it.  Season two just started and even though I've only seen two episodes of season one I still watched the season premiere anyway what a risk taker I am.  Nothing got spoiled or anything I believe its kinda like a prequel of sorts.  

Lastly for video games on the Xbox 360 I'm so looking forward to Assassins Creed 3, till then I'm playing Darksiders and get ready for it Pokemon White 2 ooooh my goodness cool kid right here.

Thank you once again for reading my blog 

Hope you have an Awesome! day 

Movie Review Time: Hotel Transylvania

Hotel Transylvania

Tells the story of a Vampire dad Dracula to be exact, and his 118 year old daughter Mavis's birthday. He is throwing her a huge birthday party, but all Mavis really wants is to go outside of their "Monster Hotel" and see what the world is like for herself. Dracula wants to protect his daughter like most fathers but can be a bit over protective. The world is a scary place for a monster because of the dreaded humans that lurk around every corner. Dracula just wants Mavis to understand that Monsters and Humans can't live together. He does let her see the outside world by letting her explore a near by village. But the "Humans" do not take a liking to her and she goes crying back to Daddy, because he was right all along. Dracula's guests start to arrive and everything is going according to his plan once again now that Mavis's dream to leave the hotel is gone.  But then an unexpected guest arrives a human dun dun dun! And Dracula is now in panic mode to hide the human from everyone but most importantly his daughter Mavis.

Now on to the Review part:

 

Like most movies the trailer does tell you a lot of the funny moments of course, so some punch lines weren't as funny. But that is bound to happen especially with movies that are geared more towards a younger crowd they tend to over play them on TV. Not to worry though there are still some funny surprises in the movie. The character that made me laugh the most would have to have been Dracula(Adam Sandler)he interacts with most of the cast making him more of the main character than Mavis(Selena Gomez)which surprised me. 

 

There were a lot of cute parts at the beginning of the movie between Dracula and Mavis. I think those parts were my favorite parts of the whole movie lol. Like Dracula and Mavis's bat form, oh my goodness soooo cute. But Mavis and Johnny's(Andy Samberg) friendship had some really cute moments as well. Just not as many friendship/love interest building moments that I thought would've happened. For the majority of the movie Johnny had to hide his identity (which makes sense) but his character had more involvement with Dracula than Mavis because of that reason.  

 

It's definitely a good Halloween/October movie but i don't think it's going to become a "classic" sadly. For me it was missing a little something and I'm still trying to figure out what it was exactly.

Rating 7/10

Side Note: I thought it would've been cool if they played Hotel California but switched it up to match Hotel Transylvania. But that did not happen. lol
