Across the Universe.
Sooo I know all of you saw this movie a week ago. But I've been busy. Busy like whoa.

I thought the beginning and end were amazing. The beginning moreso. When that mother collapsed against the door frame I got chills. And the dead boy and that black woman. It killed me.

The middle of the movie sucked and completely ruined it. Like. WTF. I understand they're all high and on acid and blah but panorama after panorama of crappy photoshop filters is stupid and tasteless. And the songs sung within said panoramas weren't even that good. I loved the scene in the beginning where they all got drunk AND HIGH and were just crazy. It was sooo effective at letting the audience know the characters were in an altered mindset, why couldn't the director chose to do something similar for all the other times that illicit drugs were involved?

I didn't mind the crazy-ass army songs, though. I actually really enjoyed those.

I would've loved the end of the movie more if it hadn't come after the middle. Like. Really. The middle pissed me off.

WTF Prudence? Why even have her in the movie? I mean, I understand why. But give her more of a role. I mean, really. REALLY!

But yea. I'm downloading the soundtrack right now.

I'm so tired. I got three hours of sleep. Yea, so I think I'm going to go sleep. Night!

I LOVEDDD ITTTT

Helter Skelter is my FAVORITE song, oh my god I love it so much. It's my ringtone.

Anyways. For me it took a while before I really liked it...like I had to sleep on it, then I realized how much I enjoyed it. I agree that the middle was slower but I didn't by any means hate it. It just wasn't as good as the beginning and end. But you're right, the beginning's just amazing. But the SONGS. I've been listening to the soundtrack constantly. I bought the extended one because the one I downloaded was the 1 disc one and I was too impatient to wait for someone to upload the better one. That's right--I actually bought this CD.

3 hours? I hope you are sleeping.

Ben when are you coming home so I can maul you with my love?
