Beauty and the Beast 3D/TinTin

OK so in a total of 3 days I've seen 2 movies! These are the movies I saw!

"The Adventures of Tintin Poster"

and



Since I've been seeing some more frequently than usual, I thought I would give a review on each! Sorry if you were hoping for an AG post! ;)

First off, let's start with "The Adventures of TinTin" !
Overall TinTin was an AMAZING movie! The animation was great so that's a plus for all you computer geeks out there! ;)

The story was cool and had lots of details added to make the movie a tad longer. ;) Snowy (the dog) was probably my favorite character. :) My parents said it was kind of slow, but honestly I didn't think it was at all! Why do I always love British movies made for America?

Second, let's take a look at "Beauty and the Beast: 3D"
I really wanted to see Beauty and the Beast because it out in theaters before I was born! In fact 9 years before I was born! :D . Compared to seeing it on TV, it looked like they touched up a few imperfects to make the picture look like it came out in 2012! Two really good scenes were definitely the ballroom dance, (duh) and towards the end of the song "Belle" when she rotates.....but you probably don't know what I'm talking about. ;)
Sorry for such a short post guys! I'm working on my really big ones! ;) I gotta let Tess use my laptop for one of her post I think. (or she just wants to check out the AG website) ;) Thanks!

Picture Problems

Ok so I really needed to get off the Christmas theme right? Well after changing everything and making a collage on Picnik, I tried to put it on my blog and this is what it said:

We're sorry, but you have exceeded your photo upload quota. For more information, check out this Blogger help page.
 
So like any normal person I clicked the Blogger Help Page! It said I needed to buy space! Does anyone know how to get around that? I really need to figure this out and find out why it's not working!
 
Anything would help! Thanks!

Disney Tag!

Greetings readers! Beast's Belle, owner of Never Grow Up: Doll Guide is doing a Disney tag so I just got home and I'm all prepared! Everyone is allowed to participate! If you want to see the official "rules" then click HERE .

1. Rapunzel
2. Eugene
3. Mike Wasowski (Monsters Inc.)
4. Belle
5. Lumiere
6. Beast
7. Gaston
8. Woody
9. Mr. Prickle Pants (Toy Story 3)
10. Buzz Lightyear

1. If you had #1 (Rapunzel) and #7 (Gaston) over for dinner, what would would you serve them and how would you entertain them?

I would definitely serve Gaston meat......;) . For Rapunzel I would serve cupcakes and any cheerful looking food! Entertainment.......for Gaston maybe some sort of shooting arcade? haha! Rapunzel would be baking. ;)

2. #6 (Beast) and #8 (Woody) are going to sing a duet. What is the title of the song they will sing?

Well first off let me say that there would be a major proportion issue they're! I think I would call it "Cowboy Lion, Tiger or Bear OH MY!" Wow. I didn't think the Wizard of Oz would interfere there, but you never know!

3. #2, (Eugene) #4, (Belle) and #9 (Mr. Prickle Pants) are on a quest. What is the purpose of their quest, and who is the leader?

Well I'd say to find Mr. Prickle Pants's suspenders, but that's a little bit of a stretch don't you think? As for the leader most definitely Eugene and Mr. Prickle Pants would fight over that! (Overall I think all Eugene needs to do is take a flame to the stuffed animal!)

4. Who would make a better librarian, #3 (Mike) or #10 (Buzz Lightyear)?

Well I think it's quite humorous to think of both of them in little librarian glasses! I'd have to say Buzz. He's more of a "stay on target" kind of guy. I do think however that I'd love to have Mike as my local librarian! ;)

5. It's the final showdown of a Disney film. #7 (Gaston) has to defeat #4 (Belle). How will he/she do it?

Oh my goodness. I'd seriously want it to be flip-flopped here! I mean that is just SO WRONG! Honestly I don't have a thought in my mind!

6. #6 (Beast) is holding a job interview. The interviewees are #9 (Mr. Prickle Pants), #3 (Mike), and #8 (Woody). What is the job they are interviewing for, and who will get the position?

I think that the job they're going for is comedian. Obviously Mr. Prickle Pants would stink at that job! It would definetely go to Mike Wasowski! I mean that dude is a riot!

7. In a sword fight between #1 (Rapunzel) and #5 (Lumiere), who would win?

Well may I say that a sword fight between those two would be AWESOME! I love both those characters, but I have to say Rapunzel considering I don't think Lumiere can hold a sword! For some reason I think it's kind of funny to see Rapunzel chop off Lumiere's wax head......I guess I'm kind of warped! XD

8. In a musical number, what sort of dance would #10 (Buzz Lightyear) perform while singing?

It would be really funny to see Buzz with a top hat and a cane doing what my friend would say, "Jazz Box style!" I think he would also sing a really bad version of "You've got a friend in me" :).

9. Who would make a better babysitter, #5 (Lumiere) or #2 (Eugene)?

Really? Two guys? If I have to, I'd say Eugene. I don't think I'd trust my children with fire! ;)

10. Once upon a time, in a faraway land, Mr. Prickle Pants dreamed of a different life than the one she/he had. Meanwhile, in another part of the land, Lumiere and Gaston were imprisoned and trying to escape. They were in the clutches of the sinister Eugene, who refused to show any mercy.


One day, Belle passed by the dungeon where  Lumiere and Gaston were held captive and heard their cries. Moved with compassion, he/she vowed to not rest until he/she had done everything in his/her power to rescue them. With that, Belle rushed off to get help.



The first people (or characters) Belle came across were Rapunzle, Beast, and Buzz Lightyear, who were involved in a street faire.  Belle told the others of the plight of Lumiere and Gaston, and they were determined to help! They decided to go to the nearest village to get the supplies they would need for such a rescue.


The nearest village was, of course, the village where Mr. Prickle Pants lived. When he/she saw the others so hard at work, Mr. Prickle Pants asked what they were doing and was told of their quest. Instantly, Mr. Prickle Pants broke into a spontaneous song, detailing that this was what he/she had been waiting for all of this time. Then Mr. Prickle Pants joined in their rescue effort.


On their way back to the dungeon, they were confronted by Woody, who had been hired by the villainous Eugene to stop them. Just when they thought all was lost, Mike Wasowski  appeared on the horizon...

He rush over to help all the recruits. He made his best jokes and made Woody laugh so hard he choked! (Sorry, Woody!) He rushed away to find some water! They all ran into the prison where Lumiere and Gaston were being kept captive by the evil Eugene!

Eugene let out a loud sinister laugh as a large cage came from above, trapping everyone.  Eugene thought that he had done enough laughing for one day and decided to go get a drink. After he left Mr. Prickle Pants was easily able to squeeze through the bars. He pressed a large red button that made the cage come up releasing everyone.Belle grabbed the keys and released Lumiere and Gaston from their doom.

Everyone celebrated and praised Mr. Prickle Pants for saving the day!

And finally Mr. Prickle Pants got what he was wishing for the whole time.......friends.


May I say that it was so fun doing this an mainly writing the end of the story! I wanted to end it all sweet and loving I guess. XD I was sort of sad that Eugene was the evil one.....but good for him! He trapped Gaston! Thanks, Beast's Belle!

No Internet?!?

I'm so sorry everyone! I did get back from Washington D.C. Monday, but when I got back my laptop wasn't producing any internet abilities and still isn't! I'm using my dad's old computer just to tell you all this! As soon as I get my internet back I will try and get a lot of post going! Same goes for The 5 Little Bloggers. Trust me when I say that it's horrible to have 5 dolls nagging you and asking you EVERY HOUR if the internet is back!

I'll update you all as soon as I can get things running. ;) THANKS A BUNCH!

Off to Washington D.C.!

Hey guys! I wanted to give all of you a heads-up that were leaving for Washington D.C. this afternoon and that we'l be back Monday. I am bringing Kanani and McKenna along with me so I'll be taking as many photos as my camera can take! ;) Kanani will be doing a few vacation posts on The 5 Little Bloggers when we get back. :) I hope you all have a great weekend!!

Mckenna Brooks!

Hello my faithful followers! I went to the AG store today but I didn't get photos because my camera was dead. (I think) I took a few photos of Mckenna in the car before I opened her. Sorry they may be low quality because they were taken with my iPod. ;)

I brought Lanie so she could keep Kanani occupied. (In other words, I brought Lanie to make sure Kanani didn't whine about Mckenna!)
 Here's her!! I was dying to open her!

Her outfit is adorable!
I told you it wasn't very good quality! ;)

 Her hair is really cool! What's very unique about her hair is that she has no hairline so you can part her hair anyway you want it!
I also bought these glasses. I think they look better on Kanani. ;)

If you want to check out Kanani's new post on 'The 5 Little Bloggers' then click HERE ! :)

( : HAVE A GREAT DAY : )

Happy New Years! :D

HAPPY NEW YEARS!! I wanted to thank all my followers and viewers who have made my year special and supporting me and my blog!

I do have some news to share with you all. I am using all of my Christmas money to possibly buy Mckenna Brooks! I want to see her in person so my Mom, Grandma and I are going to the AG store tomorrow!! I'm not telling you which store because that would give out my location but you may be able to tell by the photos. ;)

What I have decided to do is to set out on a eBay search and try and get some of the GOTYs so I can possibly in the "no where near" future have almost all of the past GOTYs.

May I share to you that Kanani is in a really bad mood today. (For the majority of you who don't know, I got Kanani for Christmas.) Why is she cranky you may ask? I'm sure at least a few of you have figured it out! She has been "replaced" by Mckenna Brooks. (at least that's how she says it) She won't even speak to Lanie who was replaced by her! Maybe I shouldn't bring her tomorrow........;)
