The Phantom of the Opera 25th Anniversary

So today I watched "The Phantom of the Opera: 25th Anniversary", and I can say that I'm still as amazed as the first time I saw it. 

I'm still in LOVE with the way Ramin Karimloo portrays the Phantom. He is the first man that actually makes me think that the phantom wasn't just some crazy man, who killed people; thanks to him (and that I read the book), I understood better this character (and I sort of fell in love with him). If I were Christine I would have a though time choosing between Raoul and the Phantom, just because they both are the best option for different reasons...

If anyone ever wants to watch a good musical, I recoment "The Phantom of the Opera", but not the 2004 movie; because that movie is NOT good, the stage musical is.

Scarlett O'Hara

So you guys already know that I'm a BIG! Gone With The Wind fan, so it wouldn't be a surprise if I told you that my favorite character from all time happens to be Scarlett O'Hara. One of the reasons of why I like her character so much is because she's not the typical female protagonist you expect in a romance novel. Scarlett has a very interesting personality and she's not what was expected of a woman back in the 1860s, she's not afraid to do what may be needed to keep on going with her life; even after she's been hit by tragedies all along the way. 

I persanaly believe that Scarlett is such a stronge woman, which is one of the reasons of why I like not only her character but also the book.

When it comes to how her story ends and the end of Gone With The Wind, I was a bit (and by that I mean "a lot") sad because she finally understood, or rather saw that she had been in love with her husband for a long time, but just because of a childhood fantasy she "Threw happiness away with both hands" as Rhett says on the book.

Gone With The Wind

Remember I told you guys that I have a thing for Gone With The Wind?... well, if anyone here does too, and has watched the movie or read the book; I would like to know what you guys think about it. I honestly believe is a great book and an AMAZING movie, and that Vivien Leigh is the best Scarlett O'Hara there could have ever been. If anyone agrees or disagrees with me just let me know, I would love to know what you all think.

Fanfictions

So like I said, I'm a BIG Narnia fan, if anyone has ever wrote a story, poem or something about Narnia... or even changed the ending of Prince  Caspian and made everyone happy by letting the Pevensie siblings stay in Narnia or made Peter and Susan go back to Narnia during the Voyange of the Dawn Trader, even though they were told that they weren't going to go back... send them to me and I'll be sure to read them all :D

The Chronicles of Narnia

So lately I've been reading "The Chronicles of Narnia", by C.S. Lewis, right now I'm on the fifth book, The Voyage of the Dawn TraderWhen it comes to me, I'm a BIG Narnia fan, but there's just one thing I don't seem to like... and that is Susan and Caspian's ending; I honestly believe they were meant for each other, but I guess it just wasn't meant to be... but no matter what I will always believe that they were the perfect couple :D

I think (or rather I know) that if I watch the second movie, which is The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian sometime soon, I will absolutely cry at the end; just because they should have been together, that was the perfect ending for that movie/book. 

Anyways, as for the rest of the characters, I ABSOLUTELY LOVE EDMUND... he's so cute and funny. I love him in all the books/movies, but I love him even MORE in the second and third movie; he just looks even more adorable and Skandar Keynes aka Emdumd is just... beautiful:D

Ps. Remember I ship Caspian and Susan, 100% :D
