My mailbox was a happy place when I got home from school today, because my little "before Christmas" order had arrived ^o^ Wohoo! Look!

DSC00139

My order contained:
New Moon - The Motion Picture Original Soundtrack
HOME ALONe - Family Fun Edition DVD
HOME ALONe - Christmas Album

I just had to own the New Moon soundtrack myself after having watched the masterpiece of a movie. The music is great and there is a lot of variation in the genres ^^ About the other stuff, well it's Christmas! XD I'm a sucker for Macaulay Culkin's cute face and adorable acting. I've been watching the HOME ALONe movies every Christmas all my life, as long as I remember! :D

Home_alone_5

It's the best Christmas movies ever made! (Except movie 3 and 4 - for God's sake - skip those!)
I look forward to all the neat special features on this DVD release, especially the commentary by Chris Columbus and Macaulay<3 That's going to be fun! And then there are the 15 deleted scenes and alternative takes :O That's something huh?
The HOME ALONe music is really something special in my opinion. Every time I hear John Williams' "Somewhere in My Memory" it's like being in another dimension, a Christmas dimension where everything is warm and safe. It's amazing... Maybe I'm exaggerating a bit, but I just love the score and music so much XD The song "All Alone on Christmas" by Darlene Love is one of my favorite songs from the movies, it's so happy and exhilarating. But actually I like every song and music score composed for this movie :D <3<3<3

Now to the New Moon soundtrack

New Moon Soundtrack Cover

I have looked forward to listen to this album for two weeks now, so you can imagine what a relief it was for me to put it in my Cd-player this afternoon! ^O^ The first number "Meet Me on the Equinox" by Death Cab for Cutie is really nice, and I have already listened to this many times before buying this soundtrack. The other songs, on the other hand, I haven't heard really, other than when they played in the movie itself. I love the tracks: Rosyln by Bon Iver & St. Vincent, Satellite Heart by Anya Marina, Possibility by Lykke Li (from one of my neighbors - Sweden! cool ^^) and Slow Life by Grizzly Bear and No Sound But the Wind by Editors<3

Besides this soundtrack, there is the New Moon Score, which I have listened to on the net. The score is actually much much better than I expected, because at the time I watched the movie I didn't really have time to notice the beautiful composed music in the background XD The first track "New Moon" is fantastic, I love the mysterious sound to it and the sad tone as well. It's composed by Alexandre Desplat (sounds French doesn't it? ^^) and there's a piano version of the track "New Moon" on the soundtrack as well ^o^ Wonderful, wonderful :3 I also love the tracks: Dreamcatcher, Edward Leaves, Almost a Kiss, Break Up, To Volterra, You Are Alive and Marry Me, Bella. XD *Sigh*
I can't wait till Monday, where I'm going to watch New Moon again! Wee~ ^o^ I know... I'm a crazy fan \(O3o)/ (<-- look! a crazy smiley XD) Haha
Here's some extra pictures from HOME ALONe - now I had them already ^^

nobody@vox.com(Nino-baby) — Tue, 01 Dec 2009 22:26:48 +0100

Yes finally Buono's new PV Bravo Bravo is out! I've waited so long for this PV that it's rather odd it's finally here XD Haha...The song is brilliant, really catchy<3 Airi shines in this single (also on time - right?) and the clothes are so fine X3 Kya<3
I loved Momo's solo part in the third chorus - sounded somewhat different from her usual voice - nee? ^^ Well just watch and enjoy!

Buono - Bravo! Bravo! (full version)

I can't wait for the single release!

Seira's such an unlucky girl!

Shida Mirai

I'm watching Shokojo Seira (小公女セイラ) right now and I'll have to say the protagonist is a really unlucky person >o< The story is based on Frances Hodgson Burnett's classic novel A Little Princess. I'm watching this series, because one of my favorite actresses from Japan is playing the main character:Shida Mirai-san XD I love her! But the first episodes were really really tough to watch, you just felt so sorry for her! I nearly couldn't stand it.. But now the story are starting to feel a little happier and Mirai's character Seira is finally starting to open her eyes for Kaito (Hayashi Kento - man that boy is hot!)<3 Yatta ;D

Shokojo-Seira

I'm looking forward to the ending, I haven't got a clue; how it will end, other than I know how the original ends of course, but this version is so different from the original, so I'm very unsure XD Well I hope it turns out well, and I hope the evil Maria-sama ends up being a much better person, because I really can't stand the bitchy personality >@<;;;
Here's more pics ^^

Twilight-newmoon

I've just watched New Moon this Friday... And all I can say is: I totally adore it!!
Taylor was even more amazing as Jacob in tthan I had imagined. He is just so hot! >#< I'm more team Jacob now than ever XD The wolves were incredible, and they had really great facial expressions. The animated fur really looked like real fur! Really well done.

I was surprised about the beginning of the movie. They had visualized Bella's dream about her growing old with Edward forever young beside her. It was a breathtaking beginning, really great! Then of course I loved all the Jacob/Bella scenes, especially the one in Bella's room, when Jacob visits at night and gives Bella the clue. The hug was really intense... XD Sigh... And then the "almost kiss" scene... *dreamy*
The Volturi was

so intimidating! lol ^^ Now that I'm a fan of Dakota, I was bound to love her performance, but I will have to say that she really nailed this. With the read eyes and the grave mood - she was a totally different Dakota :OThen there were Aro, Caius and Marcus... They were fantastic! Sheen was perfect for Aro, he's such a talented actor

The ending scene of the movie was so nice.Jacob seemed so vulnerable when he left the scene... *sob* D'X And those wolf eyes he did; so cute! XD And then Edward ended the movie with the line "Marry me" all the girls screamed - haha ^O^ Actually they screamed through the whole movie (sometimes I screamed too ^#^) The funniest time was when Jacob took his shirt of in the bike scene, the girls were really surprised, so the screams were even more intense XD haha

Bella-jacob-truck

I will have to say this cimema experience has been one of the best I've ever had. I will never forget it.

Finally! The new Paramore album is here XD

nobody@vox.com(Nino-baby) — Mon, 28 Sep 2009 20:59:44 +0200

Today the new Paramore album Brand New Eyes went on sale, and of course I had to get myself a copy! ^__^
I'm a big fan of Hayley Williams, she's so cool! I think she has a very unique and beautiful voice :D
Their new album is absolutely wonderful! I really like it! But of course I say that about everything Paramore has done XD [heh] The track "Ignorance" is really cool and very catchy - I keep getting the song in my head >w< Haha
I also liked the track "Playing God", "The Only Exception" and "Feeling Sorry" they are very different :)
Here's the back cover:

Shugo Chara Musical?! :O

nobody@vox.com(Nino-baby) — Thu, 17 Sep 2009 20:22:43 +0200

Wow, they have made a Shugo Chara musical! :O I discovered the great news on Hello!Online's site, it's just great! XD Maeda Yuuka is playing the leading role Hinamori Amu, which I think is a brilliant choice. She was Amulet Heart in Shugo Chara Eggs, where she portrayed the role really nicely. Now, when she has taken the pink wig on, she just simply has become Amu!
Here's a picture of the other cast members.

Photo2_1

Nadeshiko is played by co-member Fukuda Kanon (Shugo Chara Eggs, S/mileage) which I first found a little bit odd, but now I have gotten used to her and she actually looks all-right. I don't know the other actors, but most of them seem like fine choices. Tadase is played by a girl, which I find amusing ^_^ But it's also quitet fitting, because Tadase is probably the most girlish manga-boy I have stumbled upon in a long time! XD Haha
I like the girl who plays Rima, she seems cute and then her height fits with the manga character as well ^_~ To the costumes I think the blue ones are a little too bright, or is it just me? The read ones are great - no complains there ;)

The roles of Utau and Ikuto is again played by actors I don't know of. But I think the girl who plays Utau looks okay, but for Ikuto I would have liked a boy with more delicate features (like Hongo Konata!...In my dreams I guess...XD)

Costumes: Every cosplayer's dream!! *O* They look so nice<3

I really look forward to it's release in October, please sub it someone! XD I just need to watch this.

My first cupcakes!

nobody@vox.com(Nino-baby) — Sun, 13 Sep 2009 19:36:53 +0200

This weekend my sister and a friend baked cupcakes for our first time ^O^ I've baked muffins many times, but never cupcakes with the delicious icing on top :) heeh I think they turned out well, even though we didn't have that thing you form the icing with XD Look:

It tasted really great!

Finally it's here!

GOTH is finally gets English subtitles on an UK release!!

They have given the movie the title: "GOTH - Love of Death" Sounds a little bit cheesy, liked the simple title better. But it doesn't really matter of course ;) What matters is the COVER! And here it is:

GOTH Love of Death

Personally I liked the Japanese version a lot better! This cover is just plain ugly.. Why choose such an unimportant picture?? Well they probably tried to make the movie look more like a HORROR film... What a shame :/

But I can't be complaining now. It's already made it to Europe, that's just the best! XD Yay

New H!P and Ghibli stuff! ^3^

Ponyo DVD + Berryz Concert og CD 001

I finally recieved my order yesterday, I'm SOO HAPPY!! X3 As you can see on the picture I got:

- Ponyo on the Cliff by the Sea 2-disc DVD (Hong Kong Version)

- Berryz Koubou: Dai 2 Seichouki [第②成長記] Limited Edition (Japan Version)

- Berryz Koubou Concert Tour 2009 Haru ::: Sono Subete no Ai ni (Japan Version)

+ Gashapon: Kuro Neko cell phone strap!<3

I've lisened to the Berryz album, and it's great as always ^^ I also watched the Berryz concert dvd, and it really impressed me. I think it's the very best concert I have watched from Berryz so far. The clothes and the stage was stunning, and the track list was really great too. Some of the members cried at the last song, which was quite amazing! (I won't say which members here - you'll have to watch for yourself ;3) I also think hey proved themselves much more grown up in this concert, not only the choice of clothes, but also the way they just seemed so natural on the stage. It's was a great exsperience - I really recommend this! \(^o^)/

I have already watched Ponyo, when I was on summer vacation in France. But I watched it with French dub, so it was a little hard to understand it all. Now when I have wathed the movie with original dub and english subs, it was much easier to understand. I loved the way Sosuke loved Ponyo for the person she was, it was so cute! XD And then the whole warm family feeling in the movie was really great. It's been a very long time that Ghibli has made I movie like this - you know like Totoro ^_~

And then I have also ordered the "Ponyo on the Cliff by the Sea - Original Soundtrack", I can't wait to get my hands on it! :D Joe Hisaishi forever!
