Which Hairspray movie though? That is an important detail :) Also, love seeing She's the Man and 27 Dresses on your list!
ReplyDeleteI agree with so many of your book to movie adaptations. You've picked some great choices.
ReplyDeleteHOLY SHITE that HIMYM finale was freaking awful! I have never been so let down in my life. At COMPLETE odds with the rest of the season. just EUGH! Sorry, I fell into a rage pit also. I also loved the Amazing Spiderman - their chemistry was off the charts!
ReplyDeleteI've stepped away from tv for so long that I need some new recommendations. Thanks for sharing these. I'm taking notes today.
ReplyDeleteAnd, since I'm not really in a position to recommend tv or movies, I decided to venture off on my own this week and post about mood-boosting books: Be-Happy Books.
Psych, yes! I'm so glad to see this show and quite a few lists this week. Such a fun show.

Alright so, let's start from the top and work our way down shall we: Love the Amazing Spider Man and Pirates of the Caribbean too! As far as book to movie adaptations, we obviously share Harry Potter,LotR and the Hunger Games films. And then in t.v. shows, we share Doctor Who (♥!), Sherlock (♥),Avatar: The Last Airbender, Supernatural, Merlin...and we used to share HIMYM but that finale was so terrible it pretty much RUINED the entire series for me. Like I can't even. UGH *calms self* Anyways, we share a lot of same shows :D awesome picks ^^
