Friday the 13th (2009)
1) The story doesn't make that much sense. It shows little Jason seeing his mom get her head wacked off but in the original Jason was already dead when that happened. I also don't really get why Jason kidnapped the one chick.
2) The movie seemed to drag on for forever. That opening scene takes like 45 minutes and you think that'll set up the movie but then it starts all over like 30 years later. #jitsu. The reason most of these teen slasher movies are good is because all of the shenanigans go down in such a short amount of time. By the end of most horror movies 1 of 2 things usually happens; Either the killer has managed to survive a wreck of kills or the kills have just gotten so stupid that the movie just needs to end. I think this one coulda been cut down quite a bit.
3) What was up with Jason's hangout/cave place? I don't understand why they have to give these slasher guys little make shift beds and stuff like that. I just can't imagine Jason making it rain all day and then just going back to his little lair, shutting the lights off, and going to bread.
Not as good as a bunch of the remakes,

What Happens in Vegas
1) Thought it was a not as good version as How to Lose A Guy in 10 Days. It's got the same business going on where they both have some motive to cause havoc in the other one's life, it's just not original.
2) The ending was tight. It's probably one of the best romcom endings where the guy has to go track down the girl to tell her he's still in love with her.
3) Cameron Diaz's character was kind of jitsu in court. Did she really turn down 1.5 million dollars because she was mad that he didn't want to be with her? You think if she was all pissy at him that she'd wanna take the money and run.
The ending was sick, but the rest of it's just mediocre.
Taylor Swift's Thanksgiving Special
1) Really good business. They played less music than I thought they would but they still got quite a bit of it in. Showing her playing at all those different places was tight. The top of that building in NYC was sick.
2) It also showed her in the studio recording a bunch of the songs which was a first. I'm not sure they even show the behind the music stuff on the bonus dvds she releases. Hearing her explain the background of some of the songs was good shit too.
3) Wish I would've won that contest to go see her do all those performances in NYC. Being there live woulda been tight.

Last Kiss
1) One of the reasons it's so tight is how hot that Kim chick is. She's so good looking its almost not even funny. This reminds me of Swimfan where I thought the stalker girl is generally hotter than the wife/girlfriend.
2) BIC is going bonanza. Her mom that storms in on the dad in a psych session to tell him that she banged someone else? Or when his wife pulls the knife on him? The Kim part made sense about how she stalked him b/c (I assume) they wanted to portray her as being young/needy.
3) Had a lot of serious drama. I'm usually not a big fan of all the intense relationship shit in movies but this one was done well. For all the people getting left, cheated on, and generally TKO'd, that Kim girl seems to make it tight.
Great movie except for Zach Braff who is kind of a n00b. Did anyone see that Punked where he screamed at that little kid? That was fucked up.

Friends Thanksgiving Episodes 3-1
3) Season 8 - The One with the Rumor- Featured Brad Pitt as Ross and Monica's high school friend. Despite all the poor reviews Brad Pitt got I thought it was generally really well done. Lots of great lines. Including:
Monica: Hey, what are you doing? You gotta save room, you’ve got almost an entire turkey to eat. Joey: Let me explain to you how the human body works.
Will: Look at her standing there with those yams! My two greatest enemies Ross; Rachel Green and complex carbohydrates.
Ross: Look Rach I’m sorry, okay? I was a stupid kid, okay? The only reason I joined.. Will: Co-founded! Ross: …co-founded.
2) Season 10- The One With the Late Thanksgiving- Season 10 isn't the best because most of the season overplays inside jokes that were built up over the first 9 seasons. I thought this episode did a good job of stepping outside of that and it's by far one of the funniest Thanksgiving episodes. It's also one of the two episodes that mentions Kansas. Some good lines include
Joey: Don’t put words in peoples mouths you put turkey in peoples mouths!
Joey: (gasping) That's Alicia Mae Emory's outfit!
Joey: That's fire. Beats everything. Phoebe: Oh, really? Does it beat water balloon? Joey: Ooh! Well played, Phoebe Buffay, well played.
Chandler: you went to the game, I can see Joey's hand. Ross: FOR THE LOVE OF GOD TAKE IT OFF!!
And the part where they all have their heads sticking through the door and Joey's eyes get big. So good.
1) Season 4- The One With Chandler in a Box- it's close between Season 10 and this one. I'm still on the fence but I gotta think that this one edges it out slightly. This one takes place right after Joey finds out that Kathy cheated on him with Chandler, and Chandler spends Thanksgiving in a box in order to show Joey how much he cares. Monica brings Richard's son to Thanksgiving and Ross and Rachel bicker about Rachel returning gifts.
Some key lines (special thanks to @NPH for reminding me of these over the years)-
Chandler: The meaning of the box is three fold. One, it gives me the time to think about what I did. Two, it proves how much I care about my friendship with Joey. And three, it hurts!
Monica: Fine! Judge all you want to but, (points to Ross) married a lesbian, (points to Rachel) left a man at the altar, (points to Phoebe) fell in love with a gay ice dancer, (points to Joey) threw a girl’s wooden leg in a fire, (points to Chandler) live in a box!
Joey: Open the box! Rachel: What?! Joey: He can still catch her! Come on, get out of there! Get out of there! Chandler: So? Joey: Yeah, we’re gonna be fine! Get out! Chandler: Yeah? Joey: Yeah, you did some real good thinkin’ in there. Chandler: Man, this is… **They hug, probably one of the coolest Joey/Chandler scenes.

Friends Thanksgiving Episodes 10-4
Thanksgiving blows but it is responsible for some sick episodes of Friends. Here's a countdown of the 10 Thanksgiving episodes. It's a little bit of a longer post since this show is so dominant.
10) Season 2- The One with the List- This one is last just because it doesn't have any Thanksgiving stuff go down in it. There's a reference for the mocholate being the Thanksgiving candy but no real Thanksgiving business going down.
9) Season 3- The One with the Football- Nothing wrong with this episode just no real great/memorable lines. This is ironic too because for the longest time my disc would always skip this episode, but upon revisiting it there was nothing wild on it. The football is good and the story is fine but nothing that made you laugh too much.
8) Season 9 - The One with Rachel's Other Sister- This one was good because of how good Christina Applegate could play Rachel's sister. It's a little jitsued up because in Season 3 (the one where no one's ready) her voice is different when she leaves Rachel a message on the answering machine. There are some funny parts in this one- it's funny when they don't give Joey a real plate, or when he forgets to go to the parade. Not too high because nothing memorable/really funny goes down.
7) Season 7- The One Where Chandler Doesn't Like Dogs- Had some good lines. Ross "You know, I hate to lecture you guys, but it's kinda disgraceful, that a group of well-educated adults and Joey can't name all the states." and Joey: "Say hello to the new champ of Chandler's dumb states game." Not as high up because Chandler is just so awkward in Season 7. He's not real funny with the Pink Sweater and gets kind of jitsu talking to Klunkers.
6) Season 5- The One With All the Thanksgivings- This one was good but it's flashbacks aren't as good as other episodes. Phoebe being in her first/second lifes aren't great and I've never been a fan of high school Monica/Rachel. Had some good parts- when Joey talks about thongs, and when Joey gets the turkey stuck on his head/gets scared of the turkey on Monica's head.
5) Season 1- The One Where Underdog Gets Away- Good because it sets the foundation for the rest of the Friends Thanksgivings. You also find out that Chandler hates Thanksgiving. It's odd that they all have plans to go home for Thanksgiving but end up spending the next 9 Thanksgivings together. Only down part is it gets too sappy when they talk about being all together on Thanksgiving.
The last 4 were the toughest to rank because they're all so good.
4) Season 6- The One Where Ross Got High- Has one of those sick 30 second parts where everybody says good shit. **Ross: Monica and Chandler are living together! Monica: Ross married Rachel in Vegas, and got divorced, again! Phoebe: I love Jacques Cousteau! Rachel: I wasn’t supposed to put beef in the trifle! Joey: I wanna go!! Judy: That's a lot of information to get in 30 seconds. And the part where the pages are stuck together and Joey goes "Damnit Chandler". lol.
Tune in tomorrow for the top 3!

She's All That
1) Really pretty good overall. The plot's pretty original, and it ends good. Has a bunch of good lines out of it to(o). AM I A BET?
2) It does seem pretty unrealistic for a lot of the movie. Everyone's in their mid 20's (though not unique to this movie), the dance scene at the prom is way too scripted, the school has a DJ. And what about the speeches at the prom? When I was prom king I didn't get to give any speeches.
3) It also seems kinda jitsu in the way they pick Lanie. I mean they coulda picked someone who wasn't a babe in disguise.
4) That Kiss Me song was the shit back in like 6th grade. Much love.
B+
Annie Hall
1) it has too much hipster weirdness jitsu in it. it's Pretty jitsu when they talk to the camera in the middle of the movie. the part where they're talking and the dialogue pops up at the Bottom is stupid. AND the split screen where they have to show both dinners simultaneously for no reason is dumb. Jitsu.
2) The jitsu just goes on and on. He talks to a horse while he's walking down the street about his relationship problems. He even goes back into a cartoon to complain about stuff. He goes back in time 30 years ago pops up in the classroom and has his 5 year old classmates tell the camera about their jobs. They go back in time in Ghosts of Girlfriends Past but at least that had a point.
3) It's like When Harry Met Sally but really terrible. It's like they walk around and talk about their relationships and shit but this movie just doesn't go anywhere. In Harry Met Sally it makes sense because you know the plot of the movie. I don't know what the plot is here. Usually a movie has some problem then a climax then some kind of solution. But this is just two people talking about stuff and then go off on irrelevant tangents: they fight and then talk about chocolate milk; they start complaining about some random spider in the middle of the night and that trails off into a conversation about black soap. It's like what is going on?
4) It wasn't a total waste: they talked about getting better everyday, and Pete made a bunch of jokes about Jon. Besides that it was a turd.
How this movie won any awards is beyond me.
F
Thankskilling
This seemed up my alley but it was pretty stupid.
1) The killer turkey is pretty jitsu. He shoots someone with a shotgun, but how does that even work? When Chucky goes after people it makes sense because he has fingers. How would the turkey even carry around the gun?
2) The characters are all stupid. The turkey puts on a mask to look like the girls dad and she thinks the turkey is her dad. It's like, there's a 2 foot furry bird and you mistake it for your dad because it has a mister potato head mask on? That's some jitsu.
3) I always wonder if the people that produce these movies know that they're stupid. I don't know who could think this would be an award winning movie.
D-
Year One
In an attempt to start reviewing movies I haven't seen/movies I don't own I'm trying to branch out in movies. Unfortunately, this causes me to have to sit through horrible movies like this.
1) I'm all about immature humor but god this was stupid. There's like a scene where he licks poop, and another where he pees on the Superbad guy. I mean, I get it, it's just pretty stupid.
2) There's a bunch of shit thats creepy too. The snake part gives me the heebie jeebies. The big yellow snakes are the creepiest.
3) For how many big stars that were in this it was pretty lame. Jack Black hasn't been in a good movie since Enemy of the State, and everyone else is really ho hum.
3) Tight Friends FYI. Phoebes off and on boyfriend David makes an appearance as does Paul Rudd, who ends up marrying Phoebe in Season 10. They actually both appear in the same episode fighting for Phoebe's love (the one in barbados). When they filmed the movie they probably reminisced about how tight Friends was.
I wish this movie would have ended after 15 minutes,

Capitalism: A Love Story
Michael Moore's such a n00b.
1) A bunch of the people that he wants you to feel sorry for are pretty n00b. Why did that family at the beginning not open the door to their house? They video record the sheriff busting the door open but wouldn't just open it for them? Some serious jitsu could have been avoided by just opening the door.
2) The whole movie is really stupid. I don't have the energy to go into some political rant, but if Michael Moore hates capitalism so much he should just go to North Korea, or Cuba. There's obvi a lot bigger problems in other places in the world.
3) Here's the most serious jitsu of all time. An economics professor found out that Michael Moore went to request taxpayer money to help pay for his movie and got a million dollars for it. Maximum jitsu. How can you have a movie about how fucked up it is that rich people get taxpayer money, and then go get the same shit for yourself. It's not surprising that he won't comment on it because its one of the most jitsu moves for his movie. #da
4) Why does he always do stupid shit? He goes to the Constitution to look to see if it says what kind of economic system we should have, then he starts asking the security guard to point it out to him. I don't understand why he's got to be so jitsu and not just point out that it doesn't specify a system. What a n00b. A bunch of poor Michigan people paid for Michael Moore to go to Washington to look at the Constitution. If that's not n00bjitsu I don't know what is.
Dear god it was hard to sit through,

Taylor Swift at the2010 AMA's
1) The picture doesn't do her hair justice, but I like the different look. I think she was the best looking when she had the straight brunette hair on the You Belong With Me Video and this at least gets her halfway back to that look.
2) Good performance, but not her best. The whole Daniel Beddingfield clip thing at the end kind of jut'z up the performance but it was still good. The clip from the performance gives a better shot of her hair.
3) Makes me think Back To December will be the next song she releases. Reminds me a lot of White Horse and I imagine it'll get similar play time. I am excited to see what the video will be like, I'm sure it'll be sick.
Hard to go wrong with taylor,
A-
UFC 123
1) The obvious sad news of the night- Matt Hughes getting KO'd in 21 seconds. :( I don't know how I'm gonna start to find new fighters to get this excited about.
2) Phil Davis is better everyday. I couldn't tell what that submission was but I've never seen someone pull off a behind the back sub like that.
3) Sotiropoulos looks good but I think he'd have real trouble with someone who has good takedown defense that can stand with him (Kenny Florian).
4) Lyoto seemed like he was slacking. It might've been my 3rd long island, but I'm pretty sure he was slacking around a little bit b/c he thought he was winning. #braziliainjitsu
5)Man that Falcao dude looks scary. Surprised that fight went 3 rounds.
Good stuffy but the Matt Hughes loss makes me a sad boy.

Letters to Juliet
1) Really money movie. I know it's really predictable what happens but it's gotta be one of the best romance movies of the last decade.
2) The last part of the movie was sick. When she figures out she needs to go back to Italy and Love Story comes on it's tight. And it had to have had one of the sickest trailers of all time.
3) There were some jitsu parts. I don't get why they had to go door to door looking for that Lorenzo dude. Why not just call all of them or something? #europeanjitsu. And I'm all for these chick flicks, but some of the lines got way too cheesy. That shit he says at the end about moving his lips is pretty jitsu.
4) A random aside- how was this movie rated PG? There's a clip of a dude pretending to grab boobs and the old Juliet ladies make sex jokes. I can't imagine wanting an 8 year old to see that. #parentalguidancejitsu
Top notch stuff

In the Land of Women
1) This movie also looked legit during the preview. You can see the trailer here. Even the movie poster makes it look sick. It's a good story, guy gets dumped, goes to get away, meets another girl, has trouble with her but they still want each other.
2) Except the movie's nothing like the preview. Half way into the movie he kisses the mom (Meg Ryan). The preview makes you think he'll end up with that girl but then he's macking on her middle aged mom? Kind of ruined my hopes 20 minutes into the movie.
3) It's also too dramatic for me. I'm not wild about the real sad story lines and this was full of them.
4) The grandma was funnier than shit. Between her not caring and always thinking that she's dying she makes the movie light hearted enough.
5) Random historical sidenote- I will say I remember this movie came out the same day (4/20/07)that Vacancy came out and the DH and I decided to go to Vacancy which turned out to be one of the worst movies in the history of earth.
Had it's moments but nothing too wild
C+
The Break Up
1) It's pretty well rounded. It's got a bunch of funny parts/some good drama.
2) Vince Vaughn is really tight. He plays GTA3, has a gentleman's night at the apartment, and he talks trash playing video games. He'd fit right in at the cone.
3) It's got pretty realistic fights. That line where Jennifer Aniston gets mad at him for not giving her flowers even when she said not to is the universal story of relationship jitsu. Or the "I want you to want to do the dishes" lol.
4) The ending was a real depresser. I saw this movie in theaters and thought it blew. Why didn't they get back together? He came back and told her everything she wanted to hear. Then she just leaves him? And when they run into each other on the street? One of the most depressing endings of all light-hearted RomComs of all time.
It's really a pretty good movie, but the RomCom's with the depressing endings are just too jitsu for me. I mean I've watched it a bunch of time and I'm sure I'll watch it again, I;m just always gonna shut it off before the ending.
C
Down to You
1) This movie seemed so sick. I've already gone on rants about how tight Julia Stiles is, but FPJ is in a bunch of other teen movies that are all pretty sick. It's a college love story and somehow it was horrible.
2) There's so much jitsu it's hard to know where to start.
a) What was up with the friends who are in the porn industry? His buddy just volunteers for it one night and is all of a sudden this suave don juan? And the chick who's like a part time chem student/part time porn star/part time lurker? Weird shit.
b)Why do they fight over such stupid stuff? She's mad that he sleeps differently since she's been gone? WTF is that about?
c) Towards the end of the movie he tries to kill himself by drinking some of her shampoo? Huh?
3) It kind of freaks me out when the characters jump out of character and talk to the TV. Ever since watching Funny Games (2008) it just wierds me out too much.
I tried so hard to like this movie, but it was pointless.
D+
Just Married
1) It's got a lot of really solid parts. At the beginning when they fall in love is really good. The ending is also really money. I don't think I'll ever get tired of the dude going to tell the chick that he loves her, even if it's overdone all the time. It's kind of reminiscent of the Last One on Friends. #themostdominant
2) A lot of it isn't realistic. Why can't they manage to consummate? Beats me. Also a bunch of the shenanigans seem like they were ripped from some Home Alone movie. I think McCauley Caulkin short circuited the power to a bunch of buildings in those movies too.
3) How did Ashton Kutcher ever get out of jail to tell Britney about his love for her? I mean he gets thrown in jail in Europe, held over at the airport, after ramming his car into the girls house he breaks into her house, and they get caught attempting to do it in the airplane. Seems like he'd have some prison time before he could profess any love to her.
Overall legitimate, just a few minor drawbacks

Elizabethtown
1) This movie's a little too sappy for me, and I usually dig the romantic comedies. It seems too a more jitsu version of P.S. I Love You. These like life-defining journeys they take just get kind of boring.
2) It starts off stupidly slow and depressing. Back in the day before I slept with the TV on, I used to turn this movie on if I couldn't go to sleep it's so bad.
3) Kirsten Dunst made the movie better, but every time I see Orlando Bloom in anything it just makes me bored by association with this movie.
Very few good parts in this movie,
D+

Along Came Polly
1) It's fairly ho-hum. Jennifer Aniston's way too quirky and this has to be one of the weeniest roles Ben Stiller's ever played. I mean, who's afraid to eat peanuts from the bar?
2) It's hard to find the guy who plays his friend funny. After he got all fucked up in Red Dragon [Blu-ray] Everytime I see him I just imagine that Tooth Fairy guy jumping out and making it rain on him.
3) This is like a who's who from past Friends episodes.
a) In Friends Rachel dates Ben Stiller for an episode in season 3 (the one with the screamer).
b) The crazy hostess is Hillary who goes on a date with Ross in Season 5 (the one with ross's teeth).
c) Alec Baldwin dated Phoebe in season 8 (the one in massepeoqua).
d) The scuba instructor was David who was Phoebe's on/off scientist boyfriend. He was real scrawny in friends, I don't know how he looked so ripped in this movie.
The Friends shit is cool but overall this is kind of a turd
C+
Swimfan
1) This was my favorite movie for a long time. Me and @buns0n went and saw it in theaters back in the day it was so tight. It's a really solid teen thriller thats got enough twists and plenty of cool shit happening in it.
2) I get that Erika Christenson is crazy, but dear god she's good looking. I dunno why Ben didn't leave his girlfriend for her.
3) The way she dies at the end is kind of jitsu. Dying in a swimming pool? I can't swim either but I could even make doggy paddle 10 feet to the railing. #jitsu
4) How the fuck do they get into the school pool on the reg? I was watching a movie on the lifetime movie network and the kid in it just visits the school pool on the reg too. You think they'd lock that business up.
Solid stuff
A
How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days
1) One of the better romcom's. It has a pretty original storyline and touches all the sound bases that a romcom should.
2) I think this movie proved @Nate's BIC theorem as almost all the chicks do something crazy in this movie.
3) The ending is really tight where he flags her down on a bridge. It was a lot more original than the whole tracking someone down at the airplane thing.
4) A random sidenote- the guy who plays Tony is Chandler's roommate on Friends: The Complete Second Season. The only jitsu part is on the Joey spinoff show he comes back as Joey's high school friend and they somehow forget that he had a different name and was Chandler's roommate. #jitsu
Good quality stuff

Ghosts of Girlfriends Past
1) I think it had a good theme, but got kinda jitsu by the end. I think movies having Matthew McConaughey as a player have already been over done (see Failure to Launch (Full Screen Edition) and How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days. You think maybe he'd branch out of this role when he does RomComs.
2) I think the romantic storyline was good where he had to go back to get his childhood sweetheart. I mean, it was probably a foregone conclusion, but the part where he's a ghost and goes on that rant about taking chances on love is sick.
3) The only jitsu part is where he's with the future ghost and they make his life seem so terrible if he keeps hooking up with all these random chicks. Really nobody would come to your funeral? Seems a little extreme.
Good idea, but overdone
B-
A Lot Like Love
Probably one of the most dominant romantic comedies of all time
1) It did a pretty sick job of emulating When Harry Met Sally. I thought this was a lot sicker because they didn't start off hating each other like in WHMS.
2) It's probably better than WHMS because it's not so depressing the whole time. In WHMS there's all this mopey shit after they both get divorced and then at the end of the movie.
3) There's good stuff that connects the whole movie together. The little sister always does the 'you're such a dick' thing to AK, and at the end where he says 'don't you'll ruin it' it's what she kept saying when they left each other during the movie. #clozure #goodshit
4) It reps one of the most dominant towns of all time. If you watch when AK looks out the window on New Years Day you see a big SILVER LAKE sign. #yeahbuddy
It was so good I had a poster of it in my room for the last 5 years

Trick R Treat
1) It centers solely around Halloween, which I've got much love for.
2) All of the stories are set up really tight. The school bus story is real spooky, the first scene with the guy just staring at the chick is tight, even the girls who turn into werewolves are tight.
3) I could do without the principal guy. He's just real stupid looking, has some weird deal with murdering kids, and is somehow a vampire? Should've cut him out.
4) The Sam dude is pretty jitsu too. It's like a little munchkin running around trying to kill people with this candy shaped knife. I know this movie came from some comic book, but these comic book nerds invented some jitsu kind of killer. They should've just let that Michael Myers dude from the beginning of the movie be the killer.
I really want to be more into it, but every time I watch it I want to shut it off an hour into it.
C+
The Faculty
1) This movie really seems like the epitome of 90s teen flicks. The dude who plays Stan is in that awful movie Down to You. Stokely's in Identity and She's All That. And Josh Hartnett just seems like he was made for teen movies.
2) It's pretty sci-fi but still pretty good. The whole teen thriller genre movies are always really good and offset the goofy alien theme going on here.
3) The only stupid part is where the creature finally shows itself. It's like some giant mutating bug that looks like the creature from Beetlejuice. It'd be scarier if they were vampires or some shit- I dunno why the killers always have to be transformed into these weird blow up creatures.
Overall really solid

8 Mile
This really is the most dominant movie of all time.
1) How sick was the rap battle scene at the end of the movie? He just gets up and pwns all those n00bs. And that last battle is so tight where he preempts all the stuff Papa Doc is gonna say (some part of the debate kid in me thinks thats sick). It also is to that song Shook Ones which is what he was bumping at the beginning of the movie (there's some movie term for that when they connect the beginning to the end but i don't know what it is).
2) The soundtrack is real tight too. Lose Yourself has to be one of the most dominant songs of all time.
3) How many sick lines come out of that movie?
- CB: You drew lickity split in the first round, you okay with that? JSJ: I don't give a fuck who it is.
- JSJ: This whole crowd looks suspicious, there's all dudes in here - except for these bitches.
- JSJ: This guy's a gangsta? His real name is Clarence.
- JSJ: Ward, I think you were a little hard on the Beaver, so was Eddie Haskell, Wally and Ms Cleaver.
4) Jeanine is Ashton Kutcher's little sister in A Lot Like Love, which is another sick movie.
Top notch stuff right here-

Sorry for the delays

Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers
1) It's really good just because it fits the mold for the rest of the Halloween movies too.
2) There's a lot of questions/weird shit that goes down that's not in the other movies. Like the beginning of the movie where he gets to that dude's hut and then sleeps for like a year to come up on Halloween. I don't know where the hibernation thing came from. And who's the guy with the tattoo that shoots up the place at the end? I know there's a cult in Halloween - The Curse of Michael Myers but I don't really get it. And when did little Jamie get this psychic connection with MM?
Still really good, but not near the top of the Halloween totem pole
A-
Taylor Swift Speak Now
First non horror review but it should be good.
1) Reminds me of her first album Taylor Swift more so than Fearless. The thing about Fearless was that it had a few really good songs but a lot of them were just middle of the road for Taylor. Her first album had a few duds but a lot more really sick songs. Speak Now is like that. Some of the songs are really top notch and some are just kinda ho hum.
2) It's gotta be one of the least country albums of all time. Mine has kind of a country ring to it and so does Last Kiss but most of them are straight up pop.
3) I like that she's at least getting a little more unscripted. Her first album had to go get re-edited to get rid of her saying 'gay' and 'damn' (something that 97% of taylor fans don't know). In this one she talks about staying the night with a dude and some other girl being good on the mattress.
4) They'll be a bunch of huge hits off the album. Mine is obviously already really good. I think Story of Us will be a huge hit. Sparks Fly (which she used to perform live back in the day) should get some good airtime and be as popular as White Horse or Teardrops on My Guitar. Back to December will be top notch shit. Last Kiss is probably one of the saddest songs she's ever had, but it doesn't have enough of a catchy beat to go too far. If This Was a Movie is legit too.
Really good stuff here -

I'm gonna try to keep reviewing movies and tswift stuff. if it gets stupid i'll probably have to wait till next October to blog again. I'm gonna try to finish the horror movies off but there might be a romantic comedy or two. xoxo
