The Fifth Estate

DOUBLE POST DAY! You may celebrate however you see fit.

I have a trailer that I just couldn't wait to share. 'The Fifth Estate'. Trailer first.



That's right people. WikiLeaks. You may or may not already be aware that this movie is coming. There has been a lot of buzz about it for a long time. I. Am. So. Excited! This movie is so up my alley! I love a good intelligent, political drama. This one is so relevant that the interest is through the roof. Let's break it down shall we?

The acting. Benedict Cumberbatch is Assange. Perfect, I love it. Stanley Tucci appears to be some sort of Washington man. He can pull that off I'm sure. David Thewlis appears to be a friend of Assange. I love that actor so much. I'm totally biased when it comes to Thewlis. As if that wasn't enough Peter Capaldi (The 12th Doctor in 'Doctor Who') and Dan Stevens (Matthew Crawley of 'Downton Abbey') are also present. I am overwhelmed by this awesome lineup! I may or may not have done an actual little dance.

As for the story: If you followed WikiLeaks while it was happening you know what's up. If you didn't I  don't think I have the time to break it all down for you. It's going to be intense and incredible, I presume.

It looks fantastic. I'm excited. Enjoy the rest of your day!

I have since seen the movie and written a review.

    I am really really REALLY excited about his one. My goodness, I felt like I was actually watching Assange. That Cumberbatch is talented. I hope to learn a lot from this movie.

Emergency at the Pony Express

It was a hot dusty day at the Pony Express station. There were no packages coming and the riders were getting antsy. Jesse, the youngest rider at age 16, was re-shoeing his pony, and Kale, Jesse’s older brother, was sitting on the porch watching the Texas dust blow. Jesse stood up, patted the pony and said, “Well Sarah, we are ready to go now.” He then walked to the water barrel and drank a large ladleful, liquid rolling down his shirt. Kale looked at the horizon and saw two dark silhouette’s approaching. “Hey Jesse!” Kale hollered, “I think a job’s a- comin’.” Jesse looked around the corner of the station to see the figures growing by the second. He quickly ate a biscuit, then stood on the porch watching as the men arrived. The men were obviously military, both wearing navy blue uniforms, their horses were stark black with manes and tales cut short. “What can we do for you’s today?” Kale asked. “We need you to deliver a package to Baton Rouge, Louisiana,” one of the men said. ...

DISNEYLAND 2007!!!!!

This last week, May 13 through 17, I was in Disneyland, California! We flew into John Wayne airport and settled into our hotel room in time to see a WONDERFUL fireworks show out our window above Disneyland! Early the next morning we used our early admittance tickets and entered the park an hour early! That was a fun filled day as we hit every ride we wanted including The Indiana Jones ride three times, The Pirates of the Caribbean ride two times, and many others! We were fortunate that they opened Splash Mountain the day we arrived when we had read that it would be closed, a happy surprise! Another Happy surprise was seeing crewmen setting up the set where Pirates of the Caribbean will Premiere, on May 19. The next day we went to Disney's California Adventure where we enjoyed Elevators that dropped ten floors (we rode that twice), and many very very fast roller-coasters! We ended this day with a water rafting ride that COMPLETELY drenched my Mom... hilarious. : ) All in good fun. O...

KIds Can be Cruel

I can hardly believe the capability of people to just be heartless. Cliques are such a horrible thing, making so many people sad. Don't you hate it when someone says, "Partner up!" and you are the last person chosen? It is so much worse when you are the last person for months. Kids can be soooo cruel. What about when the kids start playing dirty? When they start spreading rumors? What if they are trying to crush a person? It sure stinks to be the person on the "crush" list! As you can tell I am having social problems.
