The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo (2011)

Hi!

I forgot to write here last year when I read the book but during the past week I saw the film adaptation.


Obviously the book is better. Without any question. But I think they did a pretty good version.

I did no think Daniel Craig could pull something this type of film off but he did it. I enjoy watching him as a journalist. But Rooney Mara. as the main character, is the star in this. While reading I actually amagines someone physically like her which is a positive aspect. Usually when you read a book you imagine one character in an specific way and when they tunr the book into a film the same character is totally different and that often is a deception.

I haven't read the rest of the tilogy but I'm sure I will eventually.

Here's the trailer.

Olympic Games London 2012

Hello!

I know it's been several days since the opening ceremony but I'm still asking: are you following the Olympic Games?

These are the mascots in case you don't know. I think they look weird but cute at the same time.

Last Friday was he opening ceremony that I'm sure thousands of people saw on tv or even live at the stadium. I must confess I was expecting something more... sports related but I loved the part when Daniel Craig met with The Queen and them both went sky diving.

I did no found any video with those images but I'm sure in a few weeks they will be everywhere. Until then, we have gifs.

Anne Greenwood Brown - Lies Beneath

Heya!

I'm late on my book reviews. According to my iPad I still have 5 books to write about here but today is Anne Greenwood Brown's Lies Beneath turn.

"Calder White in the cold, clear waters of Lake Superior, the only brother in a family of merpeople obsessed with killing Jason Hancock, the man they blame for their mother's death. To lure the aquaphobic Hancock onto the lake, the mermaids charge Calder with the task of seducing the man's daughter, seventeen-year-old Lily Hancock. "Get close to the daughter," they tell him, "and you'll get close to the family. Get close to the family, and you'll get close to the man. Get him in the water. We'll take care of the rest."

But Calder screws everything up by falling in love. Now he's in the unenviable position of trying to love the girl while simultaneously plotting her father's murder. Suffice it to say, his sisters aren't pleased with his effort, and Calder's running out of time (and excuses)."


This is the second book I've read about mermaids.Being the first Of Poseidon written by Anna Banks. Between the two is complicated for me to say which is the best because they're different.

Emma Stone's Best Moments

Hey!

I discovered on Youtube a video that someone did with some of Emma's best moments.
I have to confess that even though I watched all of those scenes I still laughed pretty hard. She's so amazing!


After this, I think I'm going to watch one of her films.
