The plot of the movie is the exact same storyline as Pocahontas. Like freakishly similar. The British/Earthlings come to Virginia/Pandora to dig up the local delicate ecosystem for shiny rocks. One of the intruders goes native, has some fun running around the woods, learns the importance of living in harmony with nature and marries a princess.
It's just like that... only with Dinosaurs. Lots of Dinosaurs! The gran finale is dinosaurs fighting attack helicopters and giant robots. I guess you could get technical and say they're dinosaur like creatures, since it's another planet but... yeah. So if you see this movie don't expect heartwarming relationships and intricately engineered plot twists. Just go to see Futuristic technology rumble with the late Cretaceous.
Also it helps that they replaced that guy in the purple pilgrim hat from Disney's Pocahontas with Duke Nukem. Yes, Duke Nukem is in the movie. They call him something different and made him a Bad Guy but you should still be able to pick him out.

Ouch
Sorry for the delay in postings.
I didn't really get a chance to scan in my final projects yet.
Christmas was lots of fun. My mom took over the responsibility of Christmas Eve dinner from Grandma this year and my dad made some sushi. It's not really Italian but close enough to tradition as it includes fish. I'm glad I got a chance to see my grand parents again as well as my friends Sarah and Dan, my parents, Jaron's parents and my younger brother and sister (I love you guys) .The Holidays were pretty much a mad rush to see everybody over the course of a week. So right now I'm recovering from about five holiday parties and a seven hour flight in addition to four final exam projects. Really, taking four studio classes seemed like a great idea until final projects. At least there's light at the end of the tunnel. Next semester will be my last at Hartford!
I'm supposed to be doing some sketches for my senior thesis project over the break. Right now I don't even want to think about drawing but I'll start doodling a bit and maybe get some thumbnails worked out over coffee tomorrow.
Oh and Jaron and I are in the embryonic phases of planning out wedding. We've narrowed the date down to "Summer 2011". Lauren has helped me pick out a dress, which is a bit backwards as we haven't booked a location yet. I'm just glad I settled on a groom. That part seems to take the most effort :P

today...
I spent the past three days being an utterly shameless fan girl.
James Gurney liked my headband...
I really like his books and um....
He liked my headband...
did i mention that I really, really, really liked Dinotopia?
I hope I didn't look too stupid. O.O gulp
Anyway he was here because there's a fantasy art show at our school with some of his dinosaur paintings in it. They've also got two Kinuko Craft paintings (squeals with joy) and some artists who i didn't even know before but now absolutely love. Including this one landscape painter who some how managed to mix Hudson river school with Chinese landscape. Which is just so cool and inventive and REALLY REALLY COOL!!!
Ok I won't make you sit through much more of this. I'll just come back later with some more names and titles from the show and then you can google them and you know understand my heartfelt admiration.
