He came to another one of my friends birthday parties, where I was, and told me about it. Anyway, I just read The Hunt for Dark Infinity, and it was AWESOME! Or Awesomeitationalatieratistic! <br /><br />And the first person who commented (Garrett), is also one of my best friends. <br /><br />This is now going out really long, so I think I'll stop now.<br />Wait.<br />Nevermind.

Just wanted to let you know that I saw UP ...James,<br /><br />Just wanted to let you know that I saw UP a couple days ago and I've gotta admit... you were absolutely right about it possibly being the best Pixar movie ever! Yes, even better than Wall-E!<br /><br />The characters were hilarious and seemed very real, even though they were cartoons. I was seriously crying in the first 5-10 minutes of the film. And when I cry because of a movie, it's just gotta be a good one! I just felt so connected and invested with the characters already.<br /><br />Whenever I watched the previews, I wondered how an old man could be the hero and carry the story on his back. But after seeing his whole life beforehand, I could really appreciate his history.<br /><br />I agree with Dashner. Anyone who has not seen UP yet, I order you to do so NOW! You won't regret or forget it. I guarantee you will walk out of the theater with a smile on your face.Magentahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04079033662798955544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8648274871264107501.post-71105586672645127692009-06-26T17:15:54.304-06:002009-06-26T17:15:54.304-06:00Loved UP!

The people picking up takeout have to drive back home before they can eat. Consider if it's twenty below out (I'm from Minnesota), and you have to walk your hot food all the way across the parking lot... now there's no longer a point in take-out and the restaurant loses business.<br /><br />Anyway, that first part was just a stamina test. I've finished my copy of The Maze Runner and would be willing (with the Dashner Dude's permission) to mail it to the person who emails me first!Amy Lundebrekhttp://amylundebrek.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8648274871264107501.post-63708173558425166792009-06-20T23:58:45.244-06:002009-06-20T23:58:45.244-06:00James--

No, I haven't forgotten anything you said about your next few books and it's killing me that I have to wait so long to get them!) I thought it was amazing!!! And I'm incredibly picky about books(no I'm not either of the blondes that asked you all of the questions. Those 2 are just my friends.)<br />Any way, that was amazing, I love meeting authors(the profession that I aspire to be) and getting signed coppies of theirs books.
