Before I list my top ten movies of 2007, I'll tell you why is been so long since I've really been on the site.

First i was busy with my first job before my hours got cut, then i was barely making enough to pay anything, so I got a second job, well only having one day off a week takes it toll after a while and I was getting tired of the way I was being treated at the movies so i quit, and now I just have one job, 2 days off Sat and Wednesday, at least 20 hours a week.

Second I've had internet problems, I bought a router for my computer so I could connect my two computers and wii to one box, well it worked for two days then quit, so I'm hoping that this one will last longer, I have been checking the site from time to time checking my queue, but haven't had to to respond to anyone, so I'm am sorry for not getting back to anybody when has messeged me in the last few months I will try to be on as much as I can, and I will respond to anyone who has sent me a message, and feel free to still pm me I aplogize ahead of time if it takes me awhile to respond.

Since that is done I'll list my top ten movies of 2007, I will say having a free movie pass while working at the movies had its advantages, and even I'm a little surprised at the turn out of this years list.

1. Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

2. Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End

3. Transformers

4. The Bourne Ultimatum

5. The Seeker: The Dark is Rising

6. Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer

7. Alvin and the Chipmunks

8. The Game Plan

9. Underdog

10. Spider-Man 3

I'll go back to my theme blogs with my next one.

Character of the Blog

Hermione Granger

Hermione Granger portrayed by Emma Watson in the films is Ron and Harry's best friend, she is very smart and intelligent, able to concocts complicated potions, and memorize tough spells, Harry and Ron didn't care for Hermione at first, but after the troll incident in their first year, they became friends, and since then have looked to Hermione with help on homework, and as well as other things, Hermione is the sensible one which irritates Harry and Ron at times, though she has become more relaxed since the first year and is not as against breaking the rules, one example is talking Harry into teaching Defense against the dark arts in their 5th year when Umbridge refuses to do so.

Its been awhile since I've blogged sorry about that, I guess I really had nothing to blog about, well this blog is another movie, or double movie blog on to movies I've seen recently Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer and Ratatouille.

Starring: Loan Gruffudd, Jessica Alba, Chris Evans, Michael Chiklis, and Julian McMahon.The fantastic four face a new threat, as well as an old one, but is this silver surfer the real threat or is he working for somebody much more powerful?

I think this movie was better then its predecessor, it has a lot more action, and the effects are pretty good too.

Starring the voices of: Patton Oswalt, Ian Holm, John Ratzenberger, Brad Garrett, and Peter O'Toole

Ratatouille is about a rat named Remy, who ends up in Paris after being separated from his family, he dreams of being a cook, and meets a clumsy garbage boy named Linguini, but is Linguini all that he is cracked up to be? Or are there great things in store for him that not even he is aware of?

Another Disney/Pixar masterpiece the animation is amazing as always, the story is well written, and the acting is great.

Now on to the blog....

Starring Johnny Depp, Orlando Bloom, Keira Knightley, Geoffrey Rush, Jack Davenport, Lee Arenberg, Mackenzie Cook, Naomie Harris, Kevin R. McNally.

Picking up where Dead Man's Chest left off, Will, Elizabeth, Barbossa, and the others travel to the end's of the earth to rescue Jack Sparrow and the Black Pearl from Davy Jones locker, then in a climatic battle with the british royal navy and Davy Jones himself, they fight to determine the fate of all pirates.

The movie was amazing, it was sad, and funny and romantic, and the battle sequences where incredible, I recommend this movie to anyone thats a pirates fan, if you liked the first two, you will more then likely like this one, if you haven't seen the first two I would strongly recommend seeing them before watching this one, it will be better to follow if you do.

My Great Grandma, the one the hospital blogs where about passed away on May 1st, just two days after her 99th birthday.

Mrs. Yard was educated in the Walters School, Irwin Township, Venango County.

She worked many years cleaning houses.

Mrs. Yard loved crocheting, raising house plants and family gatherings. Her favorite song was "You Are My Sunshine."

She was married in New York March 3, 1924, to Kenneth Waldo Yard, who preceded her in death.

She was a remarkable person, having survived through so much, she had a great personality always with a witting comeback, no matter what was said to her and she always lit up the room.

she lived a great life, and will be greatly missed.

After months of calling every Wal-Mart, K-Mart, Best Buy, EB games, Target, and getting a relative in California to look for me.

I finally got a wii, last thursday, and I can see why noone had them, I only have one game for it the game that came with it wii sports, I did pre-order Harry Potter and The Order of The Phoenix for it and even though I have Twilight Princess for the gamecube I still plan on getting it for the wii.

Hope everybody had a great easter.

^The cover for the seventh and final Harry Potter Book^

I was going to put this up last week, but everytime I tried, it keept sending me back to the new entry screen and the blog as gone, so I though I would try again.

I think it looks great. Though now questions arise about the cover, does it have somthing to do with the final battle?, Where Harry is?, among other things.

Here's an article I found explaining the cover.

Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows Book Cover



Here are some more images of the cover.

Yep, March 8th the day of my birth, I was really suppose to be born on March 28th, so I was two weeks premature, had I been born on March 28th I'd be an Aries instead of a pieces (a fish).

So gift wise, I got a new vcr/dvd combo, since my old one kept skipping everytime I'd watch a movie, and I got a check from my grandma, so I'm going to be saving up for a wii.

Happy Birthday to anyone else who's birthday is March 8th too. 

It has just been announced that the final Harry Potter book:
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, will be published on July 21st 2007, just
8 days after Harry Potter and The Order of The Phoenix is released in theaters,
so a movie and a book the same month, sounds pretty good to me.
