New Movies & Christina Aguilera

The Messengers- 4 Stars
Transformers- 4 Stars

Kristen's performance in the Messengers was amazing.
Transformers got four stars for good action and robots with a good sense of humor.



So I've pretty much liked Christina Aguilera since the beginning and while I didn't enjoy her bad girl appearance during her Stripped tour/cd launch, I loved her voice. Even my father could appreciate her talent, he bought the Stripped cd after hearing her on Letterman :) I stole the cd later. I chewed him out for buying the cd and condoning her less clothed appearance (and I was only 10 then). But after I listened to in my opinion her best cd -lyric wise- I quickly loaded it onto my iPod. A year or so later I got really deeply into rock and punk, so far that I got rid of anything that wasn't, by then I was 11. At around 14 I saw the error in my ways, just because I really like rock doesn't mean I can't like other genres of music... so I quickly started exploring all kinds of music, aside from country and mainstream R&B. I'm now two years older and still looking at any music I can get my hands on; a few days ago I was organizing my cd shelf in my closet. I stumbled upon the Stripped cd case (the cd was missing), I immediately remembered all the amazing songs on the cd. I finished downloading the songs I liked yesterday and I must say her voice is like magic. My favorites on the album hands down have to be 'Walk Away,' 'Fighter,' and 'Get Mine, Get Yours.' The last because I love the beat. So I definitely recommend going out (or staying in, can you say iTunes?) and buying Stripped.

MOVIE QUOTE OF THE DAY
Ironhide: [brandishing large cannons] The parents are very irritating.
Ratchet: [trying to calm him] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
Ironhide: Can I take them out?
Optimus Prime: Ironhide, you know we don't harm humans. What is with you?
Ironhide: Well, I'm just saying, we could... it's an option.
