Animal randomness and a movie...

Have I mentioned lately that Tony is the cutest mouse in the world? If I haven't, I'm doing so now. Not only is he the cutest mouse, but he's also the sweetest! Ever since we found that plastic ball in our storage unit we've been bringing him in the kitchen and letting him run around like the Mad Hatter! He loves it too. Every hour or so, we get him out and clean his ball out. All the while feeding him treats while he sits in our hands. He's just to die for.

In glider cuteness, LaVaughn had both Kira AND Logan in her shirt pocket a few minutes ago. Talk about cute! Logan was the first to go in, then Kira followed where she layed on top of him. It's sickening how cute they are sometimes.

Also, we watched Taken 2 last night... wow! Now that was something special. It started out a little on the funny side, then got a teensy bit better. It took a few minutes for the action to really  kick in and by that time we were nearly 30 minutes in. I questioned a few things that were taking place at the time - they just seemed so... fake and unbelievable. There was one good part involving a gun, then the movie started spiraling downwards into a vortex of ineptitude. By the end of the movie I just wanted to watch the original Taken and pretend the second one didn't happen. They seriously tried WAY too hard with this one. Of course, Liam Neeson was awesome, but the dialog and the concept of the movie completely blew. The whole time I was watching, i couple help but think that they were trying to prove a point or something. It's worth the watch if you want to say you watch it, but if you want to spare yourself, just stick with the original.

Here are the photos:

 Is he not THE cutest little albino mouse in the world??


 And who knew mice loved yoggie treats?


 He's such a little fat white fuzzball!



 Love his face. 

We were trying something new with his cage.

Not the best thing in the world, but the pink fleece will keep him super warm!


Hungry cat eyes!



Sleepy kitties.

I don't know how she's breathing.



Believe it or not, this was a chopper!

And here as well.

Kira in LaVaughn's pocket.

Isn't she cute?


That's a lot of glider for one pocket.

Yoggie time!

And yes, there are two in there.




More reviews anyone?

Since I have nothing better to blog about, I may as well do some more reviews. If I could ever get caught up enough, I'd like to start adding the trailers and movie posters to the review. I guess that all depends on how fast I can get this long ass list done. Only time will tell.

Fido

I can honestly say, this is a zombie movie like no other! For one, it's set back about 50 years ago and they have zombies as slaves. I'll admit, this never looked very appealing to me, but we decided to watch it anyway. Although it's not in my top 10, it is actually a pretty gnarly little zombie movie. I must warn you, there's not a lot of chase scenes or gut eating, but it will keep you entertained.

Teeth

I heard from a few different people that this was an out there type of movie. We watched the trailer one day and thought, "Why not?" So we found it on Netflix and began watching. All the good stuff starts at the very beginning, so you wont have to wait very long for any action. There's not too much in the action department, or even the blood and guts department for that matter. It's actually a fairly quiet, fairly twisted movie to just watch one evening when you have nothing better to do. And to all you little boys out there, don't get all worked up and think that you're going to see a twat shot, there's practically no nudity in it.

Grown Ups

With a cast like one Grown Ups has, how can you go wrong? As if Adam Sandler, Kevin James and Rob Schneider (amount other great actors) aren't funny enough on their own, some genius decided to throw them all in a movie together. Grown Ups has the Great Outdoors feel to it, except with a new age twist that oh so many people love. I admit, I actually enjoyed watching this one. But it's probably a once (maybe twice) in a lifetime watch. That's just me, I'm sure some people will fall head over heals with it and watch it obsessively. And I say to them, more power to you!

The A-Team

Once my hands stop shaking of excitement, I may be able to write a proper review. Oh man, where do I start? I guess I could just say these to little words and let that be the end of it... Liam Neeson. Any would you need to know anything else about the movie. Other than the fact that it was beyond awesome and worth every penny in the world! As if Liam Neeson is good enough, they hit you with one of my personal favorites, Sharlto Copley. I'm sure most of you know him as Wikus van der Merwe from District 9. I know him as my little African hottie. The movie also has, Quinton "Rampage" Jackson. and the too gay to function, Bradley Cooper. Every plays their part well and gives you that classic A-Team feel. So if you liked the TV show, have a love for great actors or are a gay man that wants to see Bradly Cooper on screen, then this is the movie for you!

Resident Evil: Afterlife

I've always been a huge Resident Evil fan. If there's a game, we've played it. If there's a movie, we watched it. All of the RE movies have been great so far, including this one. But, to me, there's not much going on story wise. The movie feels rushed, like Paul Anderson just sat down with an idea one day and wrote it in like 3 hours. It doesn't have the love like the previous 3 had. Is it still pretty awesome, of course. How can you not love watching Milla Jovovich kick zombie ass? I have to say, the highlight of the movie, at least for me, was seeing Shawn Roberts kick ass as Albert Wesker. It's so awesome, considering we watched him when he was Dean on the second season of Degrassi. Oh how times flys. Anyway, if your a fan of the RE franchise, then you'll love this one like all the others.

Devil

When I first watched the trailer to this, I thought it looked pretty good. At the time, I thought Jodi Foster was in it. And after a quick look on IMDB, I realized that she wasn't. After that, the movie seemed less appealing. Well, we went against our best intentions and decided to watch it anyway. It starts out pretty dull, but that gets better at the end of the movie. Man, I seriously think I passed out once or twice while we were watching it. It's seriously one of the most boring movies ever! I think the loudest it gets is when the one bitch screams "Turn on the lights." And the ending is SO lame! It has one of the worst plots every. But, I'll let you be the judge.

The Boondock Saints

I know this movie came out like a decade ago, but we had never watched it. I actually don't think we even heard about it until like a month or two before we watched it. Anyway, we decided to watch in on Netflix one night, just to see how it was. And holy shit, this movie is 10 shades of awesome! As if their ass kicking isn't badass enough, they're doing it with Irish accents! I mean, how can that not be awesome? And the cast is stupendous. How can in not be with actors like: Willem Dafoe, Sean Patrick Flanery & Norman Reedus? Ugh, I could go on and on about how awesome this movie is, but I think it would be best if you just picked it up for yourself. You wont be disappointed.

I'm sure that only a handful of people have seen this movie, that's probably cause it's old and flew way under the radar. It's probably best that it did, considering it's not the best movie in the world. It's extremely cliche and you can almost predict what's going to happen next. It's not the worst movie that I've ever seen, but it's definitely not the best. I suppose it's good for quiet evening alone, but it's definitely nothing to get excited about.

Mommie Dearest

Anything that needs to be said about this movie has already been said. It's a classic that doesn't need to be messed with. I highly, highly recommend you watch it if you never have. This is a movie that everyone should see at least once in their lifetime. It's weird to, because I grew up with someone almost exactly like Mommie Dearest. I'm not naming names (you know who you are). Anyway, you'll definitely have a new outlook on wire hangers after you watch it.

I believe that's all for now peeps. Until next time, you know where to find me...
