Toy Story 3

2010-06-27T13:31:00.000-07:00

What about this movie that caught my attention: Watched the first and second one when I was younger. Loved them both. I'm heading into college this "Fall". I've grown up with toys...
Why I actually finished watching this movie: I was watching it in the theaters... plus it was really good o.0;
My favorite coupling: Buzz & Jessie I suppose
Other?: Love the accent of Mr. Pricklepants and loved the Spanish Buzz xP
Grown up Andy was cute ^-^;;
Quotes:
Andy: [opens box, and takes out Jessie] This is Jessie, the roughest, toughest cowgirl in the whole west. She loves critters, but none more than her best pal, Bullseye!
[pulls out Bullseye, and makes a whinnying sound]
Andy: Yee-haw!
[holds the two tows out to Bonnie]
Andy: Here.
Bonnie: [shyly walks over, and takes Jessie and Bullseyes, a smile on her face]
Andy: [pulls out Rex] This is Rex! The meanest, most terrifying dinosaur who ever lived! RAWR! RAWR!
Bonnie: [recoils a little, but the giggles, and takes Rex too]
Andy: [pulls out Mr and Mrs Potato Head] The Potato Heads: Mr and Mrs. You gotta keep them together because they're madly in love.
[Andy sets them down in front of Bonnie, before pulling out Slinky Dog]
Andy: Now Slinky here, is as loyal as any dog you could want.
[Andy then pulls out Hamm]
Andy: And Hamm, he'll keep your money safe, but he's also one of the most dastardly villains of all time: Evil Dr Porkchop!
[Andy then places the two with their friends, before pulling out the three aliens]
Andy: These little dudes are from a strange alien world: Pizza Planet!
[Andy then sets them down before reaching into his box again]
Andy: And this, is Buzz Lightyear, the coolest toy ever! Look! He can fly, oh, and shoot lasers!
[Andy pops open Buzz's wings, and fires his laser]
Andy: He's sworn to protect the galaxy from the Evil Emperor Zurg!
Bonnie: [Bonnie takes Buzz from Andy, and presses one of the buttons on his spacesuit]
Buzz Lightyear: To Infinity, and Beyond!
Andy: Now, you gotta promise to take good care of these guys. They, mean, alot to me.

Andy: Now Woody, he's been my pal for as long as I can remember. He's brave, like a cowboy should be. And kind, and smart. But the thing that makes Woody special, is he'll never give up on you... ever. He'll be there for you, no matter what.

Andy: [taking a last look at his toys before he heads off to College] Thanks, guys.
---------------------------------------------
Molly: [Andy is climbing up the ladder to the attic to put his toys away when Molly walks out of her room carrying a box] Uh!
[a small heavy ball falls out of the box]
Andy: You need a hand?
Molly: I got it!
Andy: Here.
[he puts the ball back and picks up the box]
Andy: So, you gonna miss me when I'm gone?
Molly: If I say no, do I still get your room?
Andy: [they walk down the stairs] Nope.
Molly: Then, yes, I'll miss you.

Short and sweet note from Sw33tPandaZ:
Alright... I didn't expect it to hit THAT close to home. I mean the whole going off to college stuff...
the ending was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING o.0; I couldn't stop crying. What I've learned from this film:
1) I didn't play with my toys enough when I was younger.
2) I should NOT donate my toys to day care centers (I should donate it to kids I know wouldn't destroy them)
3) I'm going to miss my family dearly when I head off to college... D:

The Spellmans Strike Again

2010-04-04T06:45:00.000-07:00

>>>>Read my reviews on the 3 previous books HERE<<<<

What about this novel that caught my attention: I've wanted to read this novel ever since it came out (On March 16th, 2010)! So glad I was able to get a hold of a copy on Amazon. I wasn't able to find it at my local Borders :(
Why I actually finished reading this novel: I can't stop reading a Spellmans novel. I mean seriously. It's just that good. It felt like the time when I was obsessed with Harry Potter. I just CAN'T STOP READING!
My favorite coupling: Henry & Izzy (hands down), but David & Maggie, Fred & Rae were pretty cute as well... xP
Other: I have new found respect and love for Henry in this novel. He started to change (for the better of course). He learned the way of the Spellmans.
Quotes:
I'll add some later... it's a long list, so I am trying to narrow it down.
My rating out of 10: 9
Short and sweet note from Sw33tPandaZ: I can't believe it's over. OVER! :'( I am going to miss this series oh so much. I think it will take me some time to find another book that I'll like "/ the characters grew on me way too much.

Ghost Whisperer- Implosion

2010-03-06T09:55:00.000-08:00

Episode Review

This was the 100th episode in the series. What did I have to say about it? The short little story that was mentioned in the beginning of the episode where if you die you don't really die, you live on in the memory of everyone you've ever met was pretty cute/ cliche, but cute. The story about the ghost's father dying in Afghanistan because he stepped on the mine, but he saved his whole platoon was good as well. Pretty good episode.

Autumn's Concerto (Next stop, happiness)

2010-01-01T13:35:00.000-08:00

What about this drama that caught my attention: I really liked the title of the drama, but I decided not to watch it... until 1/1/10 because the day before this date my neighbor recommended it to me & I was like eh why not?
Why I actually finished watching this drama: It's actually really good. I couldn't stop watching this drama because I wanted to know what would happen next. The characters were well thought out and had depth. The little child is a very good actor.
My favorite coupling:
Other?:
I still think that Jacko (Figaro Ceng) is adorable.
Episode 5- was when Guang Xi saved Mu Cheng after her foot got caught in the fishing net & when Mu Cheng confessed that she loved him & he told her that he was being a jerk and rejected her was because of his tumor
Episode 6- Date before surgery (swing kiss & photography story)
Episode 7- First showing of the Xiao Le! D'aww
Episode 10- Santa Clause story, family time, totally adorable
Quotes:
Ren Guang Xi: Once upon a time, there was a princess who was kidnapped by the devil. The devil said to her, "You can continue screaming (till you" 'lose your voice', 'nobody' is coming to save you."
And the princess started screaming, 'lose your voice! lose your voice!'
Do you know who came?
Liang Mu Cheng: Who?
Ren Guang Xi: 'Nobody' came. There was a man called 'Nobody'. Because the princess shouted, 'lose your voice,' so just like what the devil said, 'Nobody' came. He came to save the princess.
Liang Mu Cheng: That's so lame.
Ren Guang Xi: I'm not just trying to make you laugh. What I want to say is, if you come across any danger in the future, you don't need to scream until you lose your voice. You just need to call out the name, Ren Guang Xi, and I will come to save you.
-----------
Xiao Le to Mu Cheng (episode 15 pt6):
You adults are the strangest animal in this whole wide world *pat Mu Cheng on the head*
--------
Mu Cheng: 6 years ago...I truly love you. This is what I had hidden from you for 6 years...an unspoken promise. If I told you, I love you, can you, for this reason, stay?
Guang Xi: I will leave...if you ever let go of my hand again.

My rating out of 10:
Short and sweet note from Sw33tPandaZ:
This drama reminds me of Prince Who Turns into a Frog (buying village, forgetting love), My Lucky Star (little kid, and 5/6 years later thing) & Fated to Love you (changing over time) all mixed into one drama. This drama has made me cry too much, but the tears were worth it. There were so many conflicts that arises in this drama, it didn't seem like all of it could be solved in the end. Xiao Le is adorable. He says he wisest thing ever and he has so many tricks up his sleeves.
Fantastic ending to an utterly amazing drama.

Short and sweet note from Sw33tPandaZ:
I really did enjoy this new Disney animation. It reminds me of the old Disney (you know the cheesy one with a happy ending & life lesson) It was really nice. The theme of doing what you can to achieve your dreams and not giving up on love is fantastic. Having wits is also a plus :D

Bones - The Foot in the Foreclosure

2009-11-21T11:46:00.000-08:00

Episode Review

The mystery in this episode was alright, didn't like it as much as the connection between Booth and his grandpa (Pops). It was super sweet :D Their relationship nearly brought me to tears.

Bones - A Night at the Bones Museum

2009-11-21T11:42:00.000-08:00

Episode Review

My first Bones episode, it's terrific :D It's becoming an addiction.
Anyway this episode is about a mummy and Brennan changing history with the new discovery of the mummy's brother and clear him from the misunderstand of him killing his brother.

Ghost Whisperer - Head Over Heels

2009-10-31T10:37:00.000-07:00

Pre-review note: I'm deciding to add episode reviews here as well so I can remember which episodes I don't like.

Episode Review

The Headless Horseman from the Legend of Sleepy Hollow is referred to in this episode of Ghost Whisperer. Comparing this episode from the last two episode: it was so much better! This one made me cry. The love story was sweet. The actor who played the "headless" horseman was attractive. I quoted the word headless because you will be able to see his head nearing the middle and end of the episode :D Other than that, I hope that the producers will have more touching episodes like this from now on! The last two weren't as heart tugging as this one :D

Project Runway

2009-08-31T07:09:00.000-07:00

Why I actually stuck to watching this show: The drama, the designs, the competition, Tim Gunn. I love it all!

Short and sweet note from Sw33tPandaZ: I've only watched season 2, 3, 5 and 6. I watched only bits and pieces from season 4.
10/31/09: Just thought I'd update. I stopped watching season 6 due to the lack of Nina and Michael and the lack of creativity in the challenges.

LG Xenon

2009-08-17T06:24:00.000-07:00

What about this product that caught my attention: The color/ design on the back & the slide out qwerty keyboard.
Why I actually like this product: Fast and easy texting.
Other: It's a bit annoying when it freezes... it happened to me twice since I got this phone back in May.
My rating out of 10: 7.5
Short and sweet note from Sw33tPandaZ:
Talking on the phone, the quality is alright, the speaker phone is okay quality as well. It is more of a messaging phone. There are 3 colors you can choose (black, blue or red). The music player is pretty good. I really don't like the volume of the ringtone, in my opinion it's a bit too quite. Sometimes I miss calls because my phone isn't close to me. The con about my phone is that sometimes it just freezes and you have to remove the battery and put it back together to get it to work again "/ I guess I really can't complain much about this phone, I mean I was the one who asked for a touch screen phone in the first place...

Other: n/a
My rating out of 10: 9
Short and sweet note from Sw33tPandaZ:
Right now I currently own 3 pairs of these jeans. They are so soft and comfortable you would have to wear them for yourselves to get what I'm talking about. I bought mines at Ross for $12.99 a pair. It's worth it :D

My rating out of 10: 9.5
Short and sweet note from Sw33tPandaZ: Footnotes were fun & the appendix was good for clarifying stuff.

What about this novel that caught my attention: I've wanted to read this novel ever since it came out (On March 16th, 2009)! I finally got a hold of it at the library.
Why I actually finished reading this novel: It's so funny and I wanted to see if my hunches were right >.^
My favorite coupling: I can't really say. I love Izzy with all the guys she's been with! xP
Other: David Spellman is amazing. He's "tall, dark and handsome" what more can you want? Plus pg 327 he was actually kind to Izzy! :D pg. 299 his confession about Maggie to Izzy. Pg. 340 the blackmail found, sad ending to chapter though Pg. 360 super entertaining :D
Quotes:
"'I'm all ears,' Earnie said. 'Yes, That's true. You do have big ears,' I said (yup, out loud)." pg. 195
"'I'm thinking about moving to Arizona.' 'Why?' 'I'm in love.' 'With a cactus?' 'No, Isabel, a woman.'" pg. 236 conversation of Milo & Izzy
"I had a sudden urge to pick up the crackers and hurl them at Henry, one by one, with a g-force never before experienced by a cracker. Then I had a separate urge to toss them on the floor and crunch them into the carpet with my shoe. Then, you'll be happy to hear, I had a sudden urge to hang on to whatever dignity I had left." pg. 254
My rating out of 10: 9.5
Short and sweet note from Sw33tPandaZ: This book contains so much awesomeness that I can't control myself! I can't believe I have to wait 7 months until The Spellmans Strike Again comes out! @-@; How can I wait that long!? Near the ending of this book made me sad. I can't believe Morty and Milo left :( This book was utterly amazing. Loved the longer appendix.

What about this movie that caught my attention: The cover I suppose.
Why I actually finished watching this movie: I wanted to see the sappy ending.
My favorite coupling: Kevin Doyle & Jane Nichols
Other?: n/a
Quotes: "What color is it? Vomit?"
"No. I don't. I'm Jesus"
My rating out of 10: 7
Short and sweet note from Sw33tPandaZ:
It was a bit cliché at times... I mean this wasn't a complete blower of a movie, however it just didn't hit me much. I mean it's cute, sure. But the thing I didn't like was the acting. I guess it's because I got annoyed at the younger sister, then the boss was being stupid and the cliché topic of sisters being jealous of each other as well as the other cliché topic of changing yourself to match your lover more (is the latter a cliché topic? I'm not so sure) still. It annoyed me, so I didn't enjoy it much. Maybe it will be different for you?

The Proposal

2009-08-09T18:11:00.000-07:00

What about this movie that caught my attention: It was part of the Romance/ Comedy section :D
Why I actually finished watching this movie: Ryan Reynolds was attractive... and because I liked the plot.
My favorite coupling: Andrew Paxton & Margaret Tate
Other?:
White dog was adorable!!
The amazingly terrific grandma!!
Quotes: "Congratulations, I'm 100 years old."
"So you'll do it? *no response* Before I'm dead?! *thumbs up*"
"Yeah! Show her who's boss Andrew!"
My rating out of 10: 9
Short and sweet note from Sw33tPandaZ:
This was a very comedic romance movie. A super uptight boss (Margaret Tate) and a pushover/ trying-hard to please employer (Andrew Paxton) joined together by a threat. A proposal is then thrust upon the innocent employer. Lying to the family which treated Margaret like she was their actual in-law and then falling in love with Andrew was too much to handle. The deal was called off and a new love arose. The grandmother was brilliant, very comical.

Il Mare

2009-08-09T13:47:00.000-07:00

What about this movie that caught my attention: It was what 'The Lake House' was based from.
Why I actually finished watching this movie: The plot is a bit different, more sad.
My favorite coupling: Sung-hyun & Eun-joo
Other?: The mailbox looked pretty
My rating out of 10: 8.5
Short and sweet note from Sw33tPandaZ:
So this was what 'The Lake House' was based off of, and I must say. This movie was really good for a Korean movie. I remember watching 'Unstoppable Marriage' and thought... "Man, this could have extended a bit more" and 'He was cool' and thought "They should have added more explanations" this movie was straight through understandable. It was a bit sadder than the American version of the Lake House, that's for sure. However, the ending made you hopeful for a better future for them.

The Lake House

2009-08-09T05:08:00.000-07:00

What about this movie that caught my attention: I wanted to watch it, but then I kept thinking it wouldn't meet my expectation, so I didn't watch it.
Why I actually finished watching this movie: It was such a sweet love story! Clean and pure love.
My favorite coupling: Alex Wyler & Kate Forster
Other?: The lake house was so pretty!
The quote "There could have been no two hearts so open, no tastes so similar, no feelings so in unison...." from the novel Persuasion by Jane Austen interpreted in the movie was just brilliant!
My rating out of 10: 9.5
Short and sweet note from Sw33tPandaZ:
I finally decided to watch this movie after watching the trailer for 'Time traveler's wife' (I will watch that soon so I can do a review on it). Why did I think this movie when watching the trailer for another movie? Well. The time difference thing. I wouldn't mind having a pen pal from two years ago right now xP This movie prompted me to watch Il Mare (the movie it was based off of).
The love story of two people in a different time (2 year time difference) conversing over written letters, to me seemed pretty romantic. I mean sure, the other person could be a complete pervert... but this is a love story. Waiting two years for someone with an unchanging heart, knowing that you have to wait because they won't recognize you from your time. It's pretty heart- breaking. I love the ending to this movie, and I think this movie is now my all time favorite.

Valentine's Day

2009-07-25T07:40:00.000-07:00

What about this movie that caught my attention: The adorable dvd cover
Why I actually finished watching this movie: Good story line/ plot
My favorite coupling: n/a
Other?: tiger cubs are absolutely adorable! Picture on the side is of Sangha (name of the tiger in the movie)
My rating out of 10: 9.5
Short and sweet note from Sw33tPandaZ: This is a completely awe-inspiring movie! It made me cry at least 3 times (I might have possibly cried even more than that) I totally loved the story line. The cubs were so expressive. After watching this I really hate hunters and people who likes using actual animal fur instead of using faux fur. Those people are despicable. This movie also changed my mind on dogs. My goodness are they annoying -_-; I used to LOVE them! But after this movie I cannot stand them, those hunting dogs as well as the normal house dogs. I've also now think I like tigers more than pandas! How bad is that? Do I have to change my username now? Haha. Oh well, I shall keep my username... but my favorite animal shall be the tigers.

Short and sweet note from Sw33tPandaZ: This movie is pretty fun. I love how it's a spy theme. Have you ever thought of owning a super high tech suit that allows your to dance, cook, and perform other various tricks without your previous knowledge of it? This is such an original idea! And as always, with Jackie Chan as the main actor, you know you're in for some butt-kicking laugh out loud time of your life! :D

"You have your charm. You may not know it. But sometimes because you're 33, you're even more charming." - Kang Tae Bong to Dal Ja (ep. 5-3)

"You're pretty too. You're pretty when you smile and laugh a lot. You're pretty whenever you frown so easily. You're pretty when you get embarrassed. And when you get shy. At times, you're pretty when you're naive. At other times, you're pretty when you act like a lady. The way you are now, you're already pretty enough." - Kang Tae Bong to Oh Dal Ja (ep. 12-3)

"I love you! I... I love you! Do you still not know that?" - Kang Tae Bong to Oh Dal Ja (ep. 21-4)
"Whoever you chose, age is not important. Your feelings for that woman are what's important. That's the correct answer." - Kang Tae Bong (ep. 22-2)
My rating out of 10: 9
Short and sweet note from Sw33tPandaZ: At first I thought this was just an okay drama, I was only watching it because I liked Lee Min Ki (Kang Tae Bong), however the plot of this story isn't so bad. There's a LOT of fantasizing, haha no doubt, but it's really funny. You will also grow attached to the main characters as well as the minor characters (ex. Seon Joo and Sae Do). The grandparents were also good comic reliefs I suppose. I was also pretty satified with the ending.

My rating out of 10: n/a
Short and sweet note from Sw33tPandaZ: At first I thought the teacher was a good person, but as the show continued I've grown to hate her with a passion. Choi Seung Hun is amazing, can a guy get any more understanding and committed? No. I don't think so. This guy gives it his all without complaint because he is so much in love.

2009-06-22T11:40:00.000-07:00

What about this band that caught my attention/ how did I come across them: I first came across this band when I was looking for the OST for Hana Kimi (drama in which Jiro and Chun acted in) my favorite song at that time was "Chao Xi Huan Ni" sung by Fei Lun Hai. I didn't know much about them, but I saw that they were a pretty handsome group so I looked them up. I ended up becoming completely obsessed over this band.
Why I still like them: They have improved so much from the first time I've heard their soundtrack.
My favorite member: Yan Ya Lun (Arron)
My favorite song: Xie Xue
Others: The banner above is actually from a forum which I am assistant admin of. So, yeah... I was obsessed enough to join a forum about them and I've been an active member of that forum for about 2 years now.
My rating out of 10: 9
Short and sweet note from Sw33tPandaZ: I love this band, they have such a wide range of talent. Their acting skills are also good as well. Lyrics to their songs are also very meaningful.

My rating out of 10: 6
Short and sweet note from Sw33tPandaZ:
Old drama, humor was off at times. Somewhat annoying at times too, but I put though with it because I wanted to complete it. Special effects were really bad... I think it's intentional though... either way. I didn't like it.

My rating out of 10: 9.5
Short and sweet note from Sw33tPandaZ: This is a completely awe-inspiring movie! Even though it's long, it's worth the watch. There were parts to this movie that made me tear up (of course, it was to a minimal level because I was watching this in class...) This movie was during the busing of students so there were many problems with the different races. It also include reasons why the kids joined gangs and the secrets the hid behind their tough fronts.

Short and sweet note from Sw33tPandaZ: OMGSH! Yan Ya Lun was so hot in this drama. At first I really didn't like it that he was acting with Gui Gui, but now I fully support them.

Ghost Whisperer

2009-04-11T11:32:00.000-07:00

What about this show that caught my attention: The plot seemed interesting to me, just the basic "talking to the 'earthbounds'" was an interesting subject. Though I must say even though I am not the horror fan, this show isn't grusome enough to keep me away from it. And another thing I must add. It is seriously a tear jerker. My god. I really don't think that there's ONE episode that didn't leave me crying or made me feel like crying (not just a little feeling either, it's the one where you're trying REALLY hard to hold your tears back and in return your throat hurts) the cause of this could be because I'm an emotional person, but whatever. It's still good. And that goes into why I stuck to watching this show (even though after seeing re-runs on TV I stopped watching, but reacently -after hearing that Jim died- I got curious, and asked my parents (who also watches this show) -I know I know, kinda weird... but whatever, like I stated before it's a good show!- what happened they told me... but that wasn't enough... so I started to reasearch the plot of that online. Still it wasn't enough... so I started to see if I could find episodes online to watch (again) and I did. However, I am like 2 seasons behind and I can't find most of the episodes so I started some parts of season 4 where things start to happen and now I am waiting for new episodes (or see if I can find episodes online to watch)
Why I actually stuck to watching this show: read the statements above
My favorite coupling: Jim & Melinda
My rating out of 10: 9.5
Short and sweet note from Sw33tPandaZ: Such a sweet TV series. Very touching.

The weekenders

2009-04-07T11:54:00.000-07:00

What about this show that caught my attention: I don't really remember... I was a kid and I liked the show. What more can I say? Cartoons back then (1990s) were awesome.
Why I actually stuck to watching this show: I don't know the reason why back then (but for my spring break I spent my whole time watching all 4 seasons) so I will say my reasons for watching it at this age; THEY HAVE THE BEST LINES EVER! There are so much innuendos, sarcasm, and repeated lines in this show it's amazing. I don't know about other people, but at my age right now I am still completely in love with this show. Why can't they bring it back and cancel those lame cartoons on TV now? I mean seriously. They should bring this back (along with some other 1990s/ early 2000 cartoons)
My favorite coupling: no couplings, all just friends. I love all the characters. They are amazing!
4/11/09: I completed the whole entire series. There's only one episode that I haven't seen in this series. Overall. It's AMAZING!
My rating out of 10: 9.5
Short and sweet note from Sw33tPandaZ: This was an AMAZING cartoon! I mean seriously.

"It's not a dream. If it was a dream it wouldn't have been that hard. I realized it after I sent you off. That I couldn't do anything all day long. I came to my senses, I was sitting on the plane. That's why it's not a dream, because you're here right now, in front of me." -Yoon Ji Hoo
“No, I came here because of you” -Yi Jung to Ga Eul
"When I come back... you'll be the first one I find. I mean, that's only if by that time, you still haven't found your soulmate." -Yi Jung to Ga Eul

My favorite coupling: Zuo Yi Quan & Lu Rui Xi
Other?: n/a
My rating out of 10: 7, the ending just killed it.
Short and sweet note from Sw33tPandaZ: Not a terribly bad drama... but I can't say it's a good one either. This drama takes some part of the manga into consideration, but the ending ruined my image of this drama. It was very cute, but sometimes it's just annoying. Only good thing about this drama was it introduced me to the band Fei Lun Hai.

-------------------------------------------------------------------What about this drama that caught my attention: It was the Japanese version of Hana Kimi!

Why I actually finished watching this drama: I had to see how this drama would end! By this time I had finished reading the Manga so I know how it would end... however I wanted to see how the Japanese version ending compared to the sucky Taiwanese one.

What about this drama that caught my attention: The first thing that caught my attention to watch this drama was that Ming Dao and Qiao En were paired up again! They have such great chemistry, I had no other choice but to watch and see what this drama was all about.
Why I actually finished watching this drama: I like the plot of this drama. Most characters were quite likeable, even the bad guy. (Though I do hate the principal and Kong Long's father) xP There was also much action (as in fighting) I thought that was pretty interesting.
My favorite coupling: Yang Jia Jiang& Xia Tian
Other?: I love the OST to this drama!

My rating out of 10: 9
Short and sweet note from Sw33tPandaZ: What should I say? I loved this drama. The coupling of MingEn was of course, fantastic! I was so excited that they were working together again in another series. The plot of the drama itself was pretty interesting. I loved the fighting scenes. I also especially liked when Jia Jiang and Xia Tian went on a date. Very cute, heart warming drama.
