HBO new series "Trueblood"

I watched the first episode of HBO’s new series “True blood” last night on demand and I have to say that it is FANTASTIC. A MILLION times better than I expected. I’m seriously looking forward to seeing this series even more than the new season of Showtime’s “The Tudors”.

 

The point of the series evolves around Japan inventing “True Blood” which is synthetic blood. It causes the underground vampire world to come “out of the coffin”. People also drink it to get high. And there’s a bunch of people called “Fang Bangers” who get off on sleeping with vampires. I guess there’s also prostitutes who drink Tru Blood and let vampires feed off them for a thousand dollars.

 

There’s also people who hunt down the vampires and drain them. I guess it makes them better in bed and heightens the senses.

 

That’s just the overall story— it seems the MAIN story line revolves around this girl. She’s a waitress in a small Diner down south. She’s psychic, and can hear everything everyone says inside their head. She meets a vampire and saves him from a drainer and it seems like she’s totally interested in him. Her favorite thing about him is she can’t hear inside his head. And when he touches her hand all the other voices stop while he’s touching her.

 

I really can not WAIT for the next episode.

 

Heres bloodcopy report #1. There were reports aired every week before the series started.

Movies.

Last night I watched The other Boleyn Girl. It was AWESOME. As much as I love SHOWtime’s The Tudors, I think this was a lot more entertaining. It really went into detail about King Henry’s affair with Annes younger sister. But overall it didn’t seem to be as historically accurate as The Tudors. It didn’t even mention King Henry’s first bastard son at ALL. It even went as far as to almost make it out as if Mary Boleyn was Henry’s first mistress. In reality his first son ( who he tried to make king before the kid died at a young age ) was mothered by Elizabeth Blount. And they weren’t even sure Mary Boleyn’s son Henry was even his, since she was already married to someone else at the time of their affair.

I think it’s messed up that he got rid of one wife and beheaded an other all because they didn’t give him male children. They both gave him healthy girls. Anne Boleyn had Queen Elizabath who ruled England alone for over 45 years. And his first wife had Mary Queen Of Scotts, who lived until her sister Elizabath beheaded her for treason. NOW we know it’s the males chromosone that determines the sex of a baby, and has nothing to do with the female at all. I’m sure King henry wouldn;t have liked to hear that tho.

“King Henry the Eighth, to six wives he was wedded: One died, one survived, two divorced, two beheaded”.

Tonight I watched Penelope with Christina Ricci. It was cute! The pig nose didn’t even look that bad on her IMO.

Anyway off to bed for me.
