New Doodle

Okay, I finally have a doodle up. It's not that great (heck, it's down right horrible), and I had to edit it in Photoshop a little (my PS skills suck by the way). Hopefully, though, someone out there will appreciate it. The good news is that this doodle is the first in a "series" of six. They were all drawn on the same piece of paper. Basically, all the doodles are a group of friends-or so they thought. Really, some of them hate each other. I could only get one up today, but I'll try my best to get the others up this weekend (no promises!). I hope you like it!

So long...

Gah...it's been so long since I have last blogged, and I feel really bad about it. I've been busy packing so I haven't had time to post, but I promise I will get a doodle up today (hopefully in color). Now on to what's been going on lately, I haven't been doing much this week. I went to work yesterday, and I got a really bad backache but luckily I didn't get a splitting headache. We also ordered pizza, which was okay I guess. So my week has been really boring.....I guess I should just end this here.

Review: The Last Airbender

So I haven't blogged in the last few days because I have been so busy. I've been packing for my vacation, finishing up my summer homework, and, of course, I have been working on some doodles. But I wanted to do a movie review today on the newly released movie The Last Airbender. First off, I'm a huge fan of the show, and when I first heard they were going to make a movie, I thought 'Oh yeah, this is gonna be great!' Boy was I wrong. When I heard M. Night Shamaylan was going to direct it, I was a little disappointed. Honestly, I'm really not a big fan of his movies, and the past few that he directed weren't all that successful. But I thought that it would be unfair of me to judge, so I just tried my best to go into the movie with an open mind. But, there were so many things wrong with this movie.

1. The cast. The actors M. Night Shamaylan chose for this movie were TERRIBLE. I can understand Dev Patel as Zuko (he has actually acted in a serious role before) and Jackson Rathbone as Sokka (Jasper from Twilight), but the other actors he chose were horrible. I'm not saying that no-name actors and actresses can't be good, but the director should have chosen better ones. Katara was extremely annoying and looked worried throughout the entire film. The actor that played Aang was really only chosen because he could do martial arts. What about his acting? He was horrible. Also, none of the lead characters fit the way they were supposed to look! That made me so mad. All in all, the cast was messed up. However, I do have to say the actress who played Princess Yue was really pretty.
2. The pronunciations. They messed up the characters names. Throughout the whole movie, the cast members kept saying Aang, Avatar, Sokka, and Iro wrong. It made me so annoyed throughout the entire movie. I wanted to punch them in the face every time I heard them say it. And it made me wonder if M. Night Shamaylan even watched the show. If you are going to make a movie based off the show, at least say the names correctly.
3. The pacing. The pacing in this movie was horrible. At best, Shamaylan created miniature snapshots of moments in the show. It seemed as if the characters just hopped from place to place, without any explanation as to why they were leaving. I also felt that the writers of the movie left out some important characters that showed up. Basically, everything moved to fast, and if I hadn't watched the show, I would have been extremely confused.
4. The lack of comedy. Avatar is a serious show, but it was also funny. That's what made it so good. There were so many amazing, hilarious moments from the show that were absent, and my frustration grew larger as the movie went on. There was only one remotely funny part, which was when Katara accidentally froze Sokka, but it wasn't even that amusing. The writers of this movie could have lightened the mood by adding in some of the comedic elements of the show.

In conclusion, I would not recommend this movie. It was poorly made and extremely sloppy. Honestly, don't see it. All those bad reviews are right. It really does deserve 0 stars.

Boring, boring life

So today was just another boring day in my life. I didn't really do that much. I went out with my family, and we just bought some shoes and clothes for school this August (grr...I don't even want to think about that). Well, besides shopping, I didn't do much else today. Well, later I watched some Shaytards on YouTube (I ♥ them!). They are probably my favorite people on that website. They are such an awesome, cute family! I could go on and on...but anyways, so besides watching YouTube and going shopping, my day was extremely uneventful. But, the good news is, I got a doodle up! It's my new profile pic as well, so I guess it's not too big of an accomplishment, but at I finally got one up. Yay!

Work and No Doodles (Again!)

I had work today, and I still haven't posted any doodles yet! I feel so bad...and lazy, but I WILL get one up tomorrow, no matter what! I tried uploading a new profile pic today, but it didn't quite work out. Anyways, work today was...work. Work is never fun, but of course I do it to get a little extra money on the side. I work at a tutoring center where all the students are extremely annoying. I had such a bad headache once I got there, and my back was hurting and my hand was cramping up. Uggh, that is so not worth $7.25 an hour.
