"You're a wizard, Harry!"

Ok since I'm still obsessing with the damn Harry Potter movies I thought I should just go ahead and review each movie! :)

Harry Potter and The Sorcerer's Stone:

The first movie of the series is my favorite so far because it

explores the world of magic more than the others because they have to introduce everything thing to you through the first movie so you know what is to come. It's also my favorite because you get to meet the characters for the first time and see their relationship start and bloom. Harry, Ron, and Hermione are so adorable as their 11 year old selves and you fall in love with them instantly along with some of the professors at Hogwarts like Dumbledore, Professor McGonagall, and Hagrid! And who can't help but love Professor Snape who is constantly after the three first year students! :)

Harry Potter and The Chamber of Secrets:

In the second movie it seems to focus less on the simple fact that the kids are learning magic and more on the story that will continue to grow

throughout the series. The relationships between all of the characters will continue to grow in the second year and my favorite things to watch are the bonds of a strong friendship between Harry and Hermione and the beginning of young love/shyness growing between Ron and Hermione. It's also in the second movie where Harry and Dumblebore start to form their own kind of relationship with each other where Dumbledore takes on a grandfather like role in Harry's life!

Harry Potter and The Prisoner of Azkaban:

In the third movie the darkness of that will the movies will start to take in the future is introduced and you learn a lot more about Harry's past and the possibilities for his future. It's also in the third movie that Dementors are introduced, these are the guards of Azkaban and they will play a very important part throughout the rest of the films. Dumbledore's stance as their teacher is even more signified in this film when it is learned that he gave a time travel device to Hermione at the beginning of the terms so that the three can go back into the past to help change the future of those who had recent events come into extreme contact with themselves.

Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire:

The fourth film took on a whole different purpose than the other films before and after this, instead of tracking the kids throughout their classes during the year they follow them as two other school join with them for a wizardry competition that Harry was unknowingly entered in. This year also shows us some breaking points in the three friends relationships. Ron becomes angry at Harry because he thinks that Harry entered into the competition behind his back and refuses to speak to him which in turns makes Harry made at Ron himself, then later as a winter ball arrives Ron becomes jealous that Hermione goes as the date of a very handsome and popular student from the all male wizards school that is visiting for the competition. Lord Voldemort makes his very first appearance as being back from the dead and out for Harry and that fact alone will change the lives of everyone to come!

Harry Potter and The Order of The Phoenix:

With the return of Lord Voldemort the wizarding world is in a state of chaos. With the wizards council refusing to believe that the dark lord is back, they send in their own member to be a professor at Hogwarts, Professor Dolores Umbridge who sets off to change the way that Hogwarts works. When Umbridge decides that she will not allow the student's to practice or learn defensive spells, Harry, Ron, Hermione, and a group of their closest friends gather together in Dumblebore's army to help each other learn the defensive spells they will need to know in order to face the dark lord when the time comes. Those spells then come in handy when the student's are faced to battle a group of death eaters who work for the dark lord.

Harry Potter and The Half-Blood Prince:

In the latest films it seems as though life at Hogwarts has returned to somewhat normalcy with Dumbledore back as headmaster and the three best friends hard at work in their sixth year. But this year is where everything changes- Malfoy is chosen by the dark lord to perform a task that plays heavily with his conscience- killing Dumbledore! Meanwhile Dumbledore has Harry becoming friends with Hogwarts newest professor who might lead to some discoveries about Lord Voldemort's past that will help Harry and the others fight him in the future. Also in this film it becomes obviously clear of three major relationship- Harry and Hermione's friendship, Harry and Ron's little sister Jenny, and Ron and Hermione's relationship. All are tested with Jenny and Ron find boyfriend/girlfriends and the others adapt to having to be witnesses to their loves being with other people and in that Harry and Hermione's friendship grows tenfold!

All in all the series is utterly fantastic!! I think everyone out there should watch all of these movies... multiple times! :)

So until later, I'm just Simply Bitsie!!

"I'm an English teacher, not fucking Tomb Raider."

So for the last two weeks, ever since I had to have surgery to remove all 4 of my wisdom teeth I cannot stop watching the 6 Harry Potter movies! Literally! I just keep switching around the DVD's in the order as they go, just watching them over and over again. So tonight I finally put all the HP DVD's back on the shelves and pulled out tonight's selection...

The Descent!

The Descent is about a group of European women who meet up in a remote part of the Appalachians for an extreme exploration of a cave hidden deep in the woods one year after a tragic accident that killed the husband and daughter of the groups best friend Sarah who will be joining them for the first time since the accident.

Only the friends don't know that the mastermind behind the trip, Juno, the newcomer to the group of lifelong friends, is taking them into an unknown cave that hasn't been explored before-- and has no known way out.

So as the ladies struggle with the effects of the dark and the conflicting feelings towards each other they continue to travel further and deeper into the cave and discover that they aren't alone.

This movie truly creeped me out! I remember seeing this in theaters with my boyfriend and clinging to his arm the whole time.

Not only do you get scared by the creatures that lie within the dark of the cave but the whole film is either really dark or an creepy red tint, so you really can't see what's coming at you or when!

The creatures in this movie were really amazing too, whoever thought them up were really creative. It's as if these... things were mutated humans who thrived in the dark and fed on the flesh of people who entered their cave!

There is also a sub-story the runs throughout the movie- a certain love triangle/betrayal thing, Juno had been having an affair with Sarah's husband right before he died! So once Sarah finds out- and she does- she goes out for revenge!

Juno is still my favorite character, even though she was a husband steeling whore! lol. She is just such an epic character! She risks her life and the lives of her friends to go through this unknown cave in hopes of naming it out of Sarah- out of guilt over the affair- and doesn't really care about the reaction of said friends! And once the shit really hits the fan she really works hard to get her friends and herself out of there!

I seriously recommend this movie to every horror movie buff out there! It will really creep you out and keep you on the edge of your seat!

Also, just last year they released a sequel to this movie and it is just as epic as this one! So I recommend everyone to go out and rent both The Descent and The Descent: Part 2!

So until later, I'm just Simply Bitsie!

"I like smart girls. That's why I married your mama. Well, that and I knocked her up."

Tonight's movie is Whip It!

Whip It is a movie about a teenager who tries to get away from her life where her mother puts her in beauty pageants and goes off into the exciting world of Roller Derby in the heart of Texas.

This movie cracks me up for several reasons, one of them being simply because Ellen Page

is in the movie. Her characters are always a laugh and full of funny lines that I can't stop quoting. Another reason I find this movie so good is the element of roller derby itself and the fact that the people playing this rough ass sport are these itty bitty ladies!

But I must say that my favorite part of the movie had to be Bliss' best friend Pash! Pash and Bliss' relationship reminded me so much of me and my best friend which made everything even funnier! Pash also has some of the greatest lines in the movie, so if you watch this keep an eye out for her and be prepared to laugh!

Whip It marks the directorial debut of Drew Barrymore! And for a first time job I think Drew did a spectacular job! I truly believe that you cannot tell that this was a first time director while watching! A+ goes to Drew!

I totally recommend this movie to every woman out there who loves to laugh and see women kick ass! Also, I think men will like it for the simple fact that half naked women roll around beating the crap out of each other! :)

So until next time, I'm just Simply Bitsie!
