Last Movie:
The Hunger Games I am proud to say. I love the movie because it is such an amazing adaptation to the book. Yes there are bits in it where you go "but that didn't happen" but you know it would be too much effort to but in the backstory to keep it there. Katniss got bread not a riot from District 11, but in a way I really prefer it that way because it really gets to the heart of the theme of the movie. It would have been to hard too turn the bodies of the dead contestants into muts. The direction choices in some areas were perfect. The movie could have easily turned the Hunger Games into a sport. In the first few seconds of the games there is just silence during the violence. The movie does not celebrate the hunger games or glorify them. Its not meant to be action like a cops and robbers film, there are kids killing kids and you want Katniss to move and get out of there. I could go on forever about the movie but I wont... I'll just say to watch it if you can, because it's not about kids killing kids, but inequality, ignorance, and power in the wrong hands.
Last Book:
I think the last book i finished was 50 shades of grey, but I am not going to count that because a) It was an ebook, hence not a book, b) Poorly written porn, hence not a book, c) I only read it last because i stopped reading it to read the Black magician Trilogy, so I will talk about that. Zoe lent be the last two books in the series. They were quite good. I had a different take on it because I had read another book that was kind of a prequel to the series, based hundreds of years earlier. I did get annoyed at one point and skip the next three lines if you don't want a spoiler. I really liked this one guy that the main character fell for. Then she started to ignore him so not to put him in danger from this guy that was holding her captive pretty much. Then she found out the dangerous guy wasn't dangerous and fell for him. And just after I got used to the good dangerous guy and started to like him he dies.
But other than that it was a pretty good story.
The last person I spoke to other than my mother telling me to get something out of the dogs mouth would be Jess, the drummer in my band. She has a new puppy called Harley, and he puts my dog to shame. She is training him and he is going sooo well. It kind of helps that he has practically imprinted on her, but she has taken him to a lot of classes and is really dedicated. She is such a fun person to be around and talk to. She is the photographer and always on instagram. She is a fast driver, absolutely in love with City and Colour and always tired from work and uni but still lets us in her house twice a week for band practice. Who's that girl...its JESS!
