Chapter 1.
I stared into the gaping jaw and the long teeth in the HUGE black wolf's mouth, the smell was vile; it smelt like dead...things and blood. I was frozen with fear of dying; blood surrounded me like Red Riding Hood's cloak, the wolf growled a deep growl that reminded me of something, but what? I stood as still as I could, gasping with pain and trying not to move. I stared into the wolf's blue eyes that bored into mine.
My eyes flew open, my heart thumping I was definitely scared out of my wits. I was breathing in and out heavily, those eyes.... such a beautiful blue....as blue as the sky in the morning before the pinkness infects t
Capture the Flag
"Campers please! Silence!" Chiron yelled and everyone shut up instantly; this was the first game we've had in months since the Lightning Bolt had been stolen. And the only reason we were having a game of capture the flag is because the Ares cabin haven't wailed on anybody yet and the Hermes cabin haven't pranked the Aphrodite cabin for two days in a row, which is what I would call a record for them.
"This is the first game of capture the flag we've had in a while but I still expect all of you to know the rules! The creek is the boundary line; the entire forest is fair game. All magic items are allowed, the banner must be pr

Napoleon Dynamite - Review
Early promises were broken by this lacklustre film. The beginning was slow and boring and throughout the movie it continued its decline. The only joke worth laughing at in this movie was the pointless plot, and even that's not funny
Napoleon Dynamite is a student from Preston, Idaho who lives with his grandmother and his older brother Kip who brags about spending hours talking to 'babes' in an internet chat room and training to be a cage fighter; and his grandma's pet llama Tina. Napoleon's day consists of daydreaming, doodling and being bullied.
Napoleon's Grandmother then has a quad bike accident and ends up be

Nightmare Before x-mas Review
Once again I have been tricked by the trailers....first thing you should know about this movie is a musical. Yes, you heard me (really read but you get my point) a musical. Singing and dancing....but not just any song and dance, this is a musical set in Tim Burton's Halloween Town. A place were Jack skellington rules as 'Pumpkin King', the music helps set the setting but also gets a bit annoying with in the first 9 minuets there had been two songs and one in the background and I couldn't help bored and count them 9 minuets.
The story has a original plot, but then again Tim Burton's work usually is something else... This movie is a cross bree

Water for Elephants review
Water for Elephants.
This movie is just another love triangle with Robert Pattinson as a lead. Yes, Twilight haters don't bother.... I don't hate Twilight I'm just not OBSESSED...like a lot of people who shall not be named.... This movie has a kind of original plot - just not totally it kind of reminds me of Disney's Dumbo the flying elephant.
After Jacob Jankowski's 71 year old son forgets to show up, he decided to go to the Circus alone. While he is there he is found by two circus workers, who insist on helping him. Jacob mentions that he was part of the Benzini Circus in 1931 and one of the workers is intrigued, having heard that the Ben

After you watch this movie, you may or may not want to burst out in song. I certainly wanted to and tried until I was told to be quiet by a relative of mine. This movie uses the songs of a well known and still loved pop band ABBA e.g. Dancing Queen, Does your mother know? and of course Mamma Mia! I think this movie has cleverly entwined the songs of ABBA into a musical which is now global, I reckon that you could ask anyone have you heard of 'Mamma Mia!' and they will know exactly what yo

If your looking for a good movie with a new and orginal plot.....your looking at the wrong movie. This movie has a plot that must have been used over a thousand times, 'Going back in time. I personally hated this movie I reckon the only reason it sold was because it had 'Teenage heart-throb' Zac Efron as the lead. Though it does have some good points...like a moral (a valuble lesson) at the end, and a few extra twists to the scenario of going back in time one of them being the fact that he is

This movie had a promising opening and a cheesy ending just like 'Twilight'. No offence to Twilight lovers, but it even had a guy that looked like Edward (Robert Pattinson), and the heroine's father is played by Billy Burke....familiar? And it was also directed by Catherine Hardwicke (The director of Twilight). Don't get me wrong I love Twilight but I'm not crazy about it, I like my Vamps to burn in the sunlight not sparkle. From Catherine's previous movies it is evi

Sorry!!!!!!
I really imagined back in April 2012 I'd be using DA regularly again, but I just haven't felt the motivation to come back on here. So I'm really sorry about that!! Again........ :B
Any how, I hope you all had a fantastic Thanksgiving, a great Halloween, A Merry Christmas and a fantastic New Year's day and Eve!!! (Crap I missed a lot of holidays.... O.o)
My Christmas Holidays were fantastic, I really enjoyed them and I hope you all have too! I just sat and watched Doctor Who, Coronation Street Special and of course Downton Abbey. My christmas would be nothing without those shows. I discovered a really cute little shop that sells
Miss me much??? ;)
Okay I have now sort of sorted out the issues preventing me from coming onto DeviantART and I'm so very sorry for all those months in which I was practically inactive... or rather was inactive.
But I have a remedy for all you DA addicts... don't go on it for months. Seriously it works. Any ways I am back and I am writing plenty of reviews!!
Which reminds me, on this sad day (I'm writing this at like 2:04 A.M. 15.04.12) It has been 100 years since titanic sunk. A tragedy that never should have happened and in a sad and morbid way it was really a tribute to man's arrogance. To say they can build a boat that is un-destr
