The Cinema Club is very cranky.

I am the Canadian Puck Bunny. And as a hockey lover and resident Canadian, Winter is my busy season (for those of you who don't live in Canada, I shall inform you that we have two seasons here in the north: Winter and Not Winter). It is during the winter time that I am active on The Twitter, watching Hockey, "studying" in University, and (of course) keeping up with this blog. As regular readers have noticed, this blog has been dead since Winter decided to take a break and let "summer" have a turn. What has awakened me from my backwards hibernation, one may ask? 

A Number of Things. 

First and foremost, I would like to mention right now that I am CONSIDERABLY PO'ed. Puck Bunnies do not LIKE to be awakened from their hibernation!!! But a considerable list of matters has reached my rabbit ears and I feel the need to set the record straight. 

Everybody STFU and listen to what I have to say.

 1. Blogger changed their editing layout around since I was last here. AND I DON'T LIKE IT.

 2. DO NOT go to see that new Batman movie. Apparently you will be shot to death.  Be patient and wait for it to come out on Netflix.

 3. And this is the biggie- apparently they're re-doing and/or adding to the Bourne Movies. This is VERY BAD.  When I first made this discovery I was comfortably snuggling with my boyfriend on the couch. Then the preview came on and I pretty much shot up and asked the TV:

 You CANNOT re-do a movie trilogy that is already perfect in every way shape and form!

I repeat: perfect.

After my spastic reaction to the trailer, my annoyed boyfriend called me a Cry-Baby. Although I quieted down, I desperately tried to use telepathy to tell my boyfriend: 


  I quickly dismissed the matter and attempted to pass it off as a bad dream. But alas, today I was watching TV when the trailer came on again. My Reaction?  Something like this: 


Photobucket

I am thoroughly irked by this matter. I'm sorry, but one cannot replace Matt Damon's sexy action packed adventures through Europe with... with... THIS: 


IT'S ALL WRONG.

I'm too distraught to keep writing this post.

Newsies! We're on the Youtube now?

Dear Readers, so my Tequila week has gotten back on track, thanks of course to last night. Before I get into that, I'd like to mention that The Cinema Club is now on Youtube. Here is a link to our channel: Clicky this Link to go to the Youtube! Unfortunately, the channel is extremely boring at this moment and there aren't any videos to watch. Yet. 



Right. So I'd like to mention all the shenanigans I got into last night, as it was ever so much fun. But since this is a movie blog, I must avoid the personal anecdotes as much as possible. So I cleverly mashed Movies and Tequila Night together and created a video to share with you all. So here it is: 

The Story of my Night, Cleverly Retold via Movie Clips

 

Now that I'm all partied out, I'm ready to just eat popcorn, play video games, and watch movies with my brother and our two cats. What's this? I have 3 novels to read for my English class? SHHHHHHHHH!

Shush your mouth, we're on vacation.

ALSO, the Oscars are on Sunday and there isn't a hockey game that day, so I will be able to watch the awards from start to finish. 

OSCARS!

Regulars here at the Cinema Club will be attending the Oscars on the 26th. We'll be looking out for George Clooney (as per usual) and Gary Oldman, as they are both nominated for best actor in a Leading Role. 

Furthermore, Tintin has been nominated for Original score and I am entirely disgusted that it hasn't been nominated for Animated Feature. Seriously, who was smoking enough crack to not nominate Tin-freakin'-tin for best animated feature??? Uhhhg.

Drive, which was just previously "reviewed" by the Cinema Club (psst, scroll down!) has been nominated for Sound Editing.

I'm looking forward to seeing Ryan Gosling on the red carpet. And I'm crossing my fingers that Tim Roth will decide to make an appearance. Meanwhile, I am extremely hungry and this post ends now.

Newsies/ I'll be going MIA for a while.

My dearest Readers, 
I must inform you that over the next week you will likely not be hearing from me. Because it's reading break, which means myself and all the other Canadian University Students run free, drinking alcohol and dancing on tables. 90% of us Students will look like this throughout the week: 


Thanks of course to Tequila.

Before I abandon you all, I'd like to make a quick Newsies post. We have important things to catch up on, of course. 

1.) My favorite Hockey team has actually been doing quite well and whenever a game is on I look like this: 

Photobucket
I LOVE YOU SO FUCKING MUCH!

2.) Tim Roth informed us via Twitter that he has been nominated for an Academy Award. Meanwhile, all Tim Roth fans weep from happiness and start saving up for fancy champagne to drink when he wins. Way to go, Rothy!

3.) So last Thursday I mentioned that horrendous answer I put on my film test. For those of you who have not read that post, I recommend you educate yourselves. Here is a Link for your Convenience. For those of you who did read the post, you are well aware of the idiotic things I wrote. Well guess what, folks? Today I got the test back. And I didn't die/ get expelled/ fail. I wrote: 

"These questions make me want to rip my hair out of my own head. Or gauge my eyes out with a plastic spoon. etc." 

and my TA wrote me a note back. Saying something along these lines: 

"I am very sorry to hear that. I understand the first question was difficult. Anyways, I'm sure you'll do better next time."


It's because I'm cute.

 Well, then. That went better than expected! Thank you, Mr. TA for saving my buns from almost certain doom. I like you.

Now, it's a bagillion hours past my bedtime and I need to catch up on sleep before Tequila Week Reading Break. I hope you all you Canadian University peeps have an enjoyable break, and I hope all the rest of you have a good week. May muffins and smoothies be in your future. 

-Captain 

How I expect my reading break to go: 

Step 1: Tequila: 


 Step 2: Dancing



Photobucket
(exactly like this).

Step 3: More tequila. 





Step 4: Thinking I'm all fly like this: 


Though I'm actually like this:


Step 5: More tequila 



Step 9: Do something stupid that will likely result in injury


And Repeat. 
Yeah Buddy!

Newsies! important matters that must be discussed.

38 thousand views will soon be upon us.

Yes. Really.

Let's talk about important matters.

1.) My favorite hockey team lost last night ...again... and I'm ready to wail in despair. It's like my own personal apocalypse. If this shit keeps up, this is going to be me: 

   


2. It's really freakin' cold outside. The kind of cold that makes you cough and freezes fingers off. The kind of cold that only real Canadians can withstand.

3. Tim Roth, Jamie Bell, and Gary Oldman were all in Milan together and I don't know why. Though after running a brief Google search, I figure they're in Milan for... a modeling gig??? 


Yep. That's right. They're modeling Prada.

For the longest time I'd see Jamie Bell and Tim Roth tweeting about Milan. Rothy is an avid TwitPic-er so every morning I'd have to look at pictures like these: 

While I froze my ass off in conditions like these: 

Hullo? Anybody dere? Cannot see, snow too thick. Steve? Dat you? No, just frozen penguin.
^ What I see when I look out my window.
 But then Tim Roth tweets a Photo like this: 

Jamie Bell on the left.

And I feel like this:
Toasty.

The fact that Tim Roth is taking pictures of Jamie Bell is just so.... *flail*


 ^This was me when I discovered the two were in Milan together. 
Fangirl Pandemonium

Then Jamie Bell kept going on about a "Motley Group of Bastards" and I assume that by that he is referring to the Pretty Boy Squad that went to Milan to model Prada.

So there you have it, The Cinema Club Newsies. Lets recap on what we've learned today:

1. My hockey team makes me cry.  (But I still love them).
Look what they've done to me.
2. Canada is cold. Especially the part I live in.
Streets are buried under  6 feet of snow. Walk dog on roof.
3. Jamie Bell and Tim Roth joined up with Gary Oldman and Adrian Brody (and some other dudes) in Milan and had good times while modeling Prada clothing.
Epic Brodeo.

I think that perhaps the Evil Gnomes that got together and created The Grey with the sole perpose to scare the living daylights out of me felt bad and decided to do something nice. So they said:

Evil Gnome #1: Rothy and Jamie, go forth to Milan to model atrociously expensive clothing.  
Evil Gnome #2:Take pictures of each other and put them out in the Twitterverse. Your bromancing will bring forth Merriment and glee to El Capitain. 
Evil Gnome #3: She has recently reached the all-time low of buying a second-hand sweater and wearing her sweatpants in public. You must bring joy into her life. 
Evil Gnome #1: Milan is the prefect stage for Bromance Merriment.
Evil Gnome #2: Gary Oldman should tag along too.
Evil Gnome #3: This is our best idea yet.
