I can't believe that I found you, fate did a number on me. If you end up with my arms around you, it's meant to be. Well, maybe my crazy is showing, but baby I'm hooked on your touch. But wherever my life is going, there ain't no rush. 'Cause wherever you're goin', I'd like to go too, if you don't have anything better to do. I'd love to spend some more time together, so what are you doin' between now and forever? I'll take the blue with the gray days, I just pray the road will be long, 'cause if I'm beside you there's no way I can go wrong. - Bryan White

CLOVERFIELD *Caution: Minor Spoilers*

So, yesterday Cristin, Chris, Ryan and I all went to see Cloverfield. I've been dying to find out what it was all about ever since we saw the first preview for it before Transformers. Well, I couldn't even begin to describe the monster to you - it was some weird combination of lots of terrible things. All in all I really liked this movie (I love monster movies in general), but those I saw it with were skeptical. I thought the "home movie" look of this film would get to me, but I really only remembered it when they were running. A lot of things go unanswered because the film only consists of the home video, not any epilogue of what happens after the video ends. It's from this fact that most of the criticism was made from my fellow movie-goers. I, however, don't mind it too much - the only thing that I really wanted answered was: What the crap happened to Marlena behind the curtain?! Did her head explode because she got bitten or what?? Anyways, overall I'd give this movie a "B". It was highly entertaining and had really great visual effects and I totally believed the whole home video angle. I would totally recommend going to see it on the big screen!
