Vampire Diaries season 3 ep 2

Okay... What was Elena thinking? Who in their right mind would go into the mountains two hours before sunset, on the night of a full moon, hunting down a pack of werewolves? An idiot that's who... As I watched her and her band head up the hill side through the trees I just kept thinking "it's dumb, dumber, and dumbest."
At least we did learn that Klaus can't make his arm of hybrids, at least not yet. That was a good thing, but I have an idea when he realizes Elena is still alive he is going to put two and two together and it is going to equal Elena must die, for real this time. That should bring "The Ripper" back on the wagon again, and back at his brother's side where he belongs.
I will have more on episode 2 a little later, but that is it for now. This will be my last post until October, we are moving this weekend, and my IP company (Time Warner) doesn't have an opening for service until the first. Sucks for sure, last time it was 2 weeks, and turned into 3 weeks before we got our service. It better not happen again, you will know if it does...

Queens of Scream


Scream Queen is a term that was specifically referring to an attractive young damsel in distress in horror films, but it is more than that now. Since Fay Wray was crowned the first "scream queen" after her role in the classic film "King Kong", things have changed. That change started with Jamie Lee Curtis in John Carpenter's "Halloween". The modern day "scream queen" has to not only be attractive, but sexy, seductive, romantic, seemingly attainable to the average guy, and a strong actress. She has to be able to portray emotion both audibly and physically, nor does she have to be the damsel in distress. The modern "scream queen" can be tough - even defeating the villain herself. Another change is that the film does not have to be "Horror" anymore, it can be science fiction, or any type of thriller, and lets not forget about television either. A "scream queen" doesn't have to make her home on the big screen, but can be right in your living room every week.

Some of the more notable "scream queens" today are: Sheri Moon Zombie, Jaime Alexander, Andrea Bogart, Crystal Lowe, Mercedes McNab, Tiffany Shepis, and Cerina Vincent. The reining Queen of Scream according to the NY Daily News is none other than Danielle Harris.

But lets not forget those lovely ladies from TV, like Nina Dobrev, Sarah Wayne Callies, Emily Rose, and Anna Paquin.

Vampire Diaries Character Review: Elena Gilbert/Katherine Price


I want to start by saying that Nina Dobrev does a bang-up job portraying the polar opposites Elena and Katherine. Playing a dual role is not easy to start with, and these two can prove to be very difficult, but Nina makes it look easy and natural, even at her young age of 22 years-old. Both Elena and Katherine are so believable, and real, you'll be looking at every girl around you differently, if not a little fearful.
Elena Gilbert, the main love interest in the show is unquestionably sweet, loving, compassionate, and adorable. While Katherine Price, the vampire version of Elena, is vicious, self indulgent, and sensual, to a fault. The only similarities between the two characters is looks, and their love for the Salvatore brothers. They walk different, they think different, they act different, and at times I even hear a difference in their voices. Katherine seems to have a slightly deeper, more whisky kissed voice. Listen closely and you will hear it yourself. Katherine may be every man's fantasy, but Elena is the type of person everyone loves and strides to be, or at least should anyway.
Nina Dobrev was born in Sofia, Bulgaria. She moved to Canada with her family at age two. She also speaks fluent French, English, and Bulgarian - which I'm sure helped her in playing the role of Katherine. Nina has been a fan favorite at the teen choice awards winning Break Out Star Female in 2010, Actress Fantasy/Scifi in 2010 and 2011, and nominated for Female Hottie in 2011, only to be beat out by Selena Gomez.
