Rachel Off-Topic #17: "From books, TV, movies...we've got it all covered!"

Let's continue!

Quote:
I saw Robin Hood yesterday and I liked it. It was entertaining. I also liked the trailers that were attached to it.
That's good to hear. Russell Crowe's movies are always good, but I think I'll wait for it. There are just too many movies out in theaters now!!! What trailers were attached?

Quote:
Have you bought Adam Lambert's CD?
No, but almost all of the songs on the CD are good! He's got great vocals, and he's just plain interesting.

How was everyone's day today? It's my day off today -- and it felt so great!! I got errands done and did all of the things on my to do list for today. I feel so accomplished. I also finally finished The Gargoyle... what did you guys think of it? I was a bit disappointed by the ending. It kinda fell short. Which of Marianne's stories did you guys like best?

Are you guys reading this month's book club?

You're always great with reading all of the book club nominations, Sarah! I don't know if I'll get to this month's book club... I've started Succubus Shadows by Richelle Mead, and I'm just so busy with work and all. I'm not good at reading multiple books at the same time unfortunately.

What did you think of The Gargoyle though, Sarah? I finally finished it today.

Hey

Sarah, what's your favorite book from the whole saga? I asked this now that you are re-reading Twilight.

I went to watch The last song yesterday... I'm not a Miley fan... of course, she's gorgeous but... just no Well, i went because it was a Nicholas Sparks production. I thought the movie was pretty good, sad, but good indeed.

Thanks for the new thread.

What movies do you want to see that are out? They had the trailer for the Cameron Diaz/Tom Cruise film (Knight and Day) - it looked like a fun summer action movie. They also had The Adjustment Bureau with Matt Damon and Emily Blunt that looked interesting. I hadn't heard of that movie before.

My favorite story of Marianne's in The Gargoyle was the Japanese lady that was buried alive.

I'll try to read the month's book club if I can find a copy. I'm reading kinda slowly at the moment though.

Sarah - I've read Richelle Mead's VA series. They're very good. It's my 2nd favorite YA series.

Is her other series really good, Rukia?

Val - What's your favorite of the series? It's good to know that the movie was good. I've not seen that yet or Dear John.

It does looks perfect for the summer.

There's a new movie with Ashton Kutcher/Katherine Heigl that just came out today. They showed the trailer for that one as well, and it looked pretty fun as well (it was about spies).

You've heard of it? I don't like Katherine Heigl that much, but I like her romantic comedies...they're a lot of fun. I just looked it up and it's called Killers.

Breaking Dawn! mostly because of the amount of Edward and Bella moments, but there are things from that book that i didn't like and would like to change... then my second favorite is Twilight for sure, because EB were alone and there was no one in the middle

what's the name? I want to see it! I love Ashton Kutcher!

Knight and Day with Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz looks great! I'm not sure about their chemistry from what i saw in the trailer... but i guess we'll have to see it when it's in the movies

Funny, Breaking Dawn is my least favorite. If I had to put them in order it would be Twilight - Eclipse - NM - BD. Sorry, just not a fan of the last one at all.

It's called Killers. Here's the trailer.

Aww, Roswell. I used to watch that.

Eclipse - Twilight - New Moon - Breaking Dawn

Also sorry but BD just was my least favourite, I liked the Jacob POV stuff but it just got a little crazy. Did like it more after a re-read

I miss Roswell got all the seasons though, started a re-watch a bit ago but never finished it. Should do it and Dark Angel

Jacob's part was my favorite part of the book, even if I didn't care for him in Eclipse/New Moon.

I loved S1 and S2 of Roswell. I didn't like the last season as much.
