Jessica Alba
^^I agree. It's like she lost all her fashion sense ever since she had her baby. The hair/fringe is awful, the outfits are horrendous....I mean, she's only 27 and she used to look fabulous. Sure, I get that she's busy as a mom and has other priorities than her looks, but if she goes through the trouble to dress at all, why not dress nicely?

First Kiss <3
^^Don't worry hon, it'll happen at the right time. I had my first kiss when I was 14, at a party. The boy was 17 at the time and he apparently knew what he was doing, for I certainly didn't. It was quite....well awkward. I just didn't really know what to do, so I just let it happen. It wasn't bad, but not like I'd imagined. I haven't really had time to improve my kissing expertise, because I've only kissed like, 3 guys after that over the years. ;-) I'm sort of "hard to get" in that way. Not intentionally, but if I am going to kiss someone, I want it to be someone I really like, you know? My friend gets into misunderstandings frequently because she ends up kissing guys at parties and they're under the impression it meant something and she's like "you can't be serious." Haha

Twilight
The first, obviously. I read it before it was tainted by the hype. Also, I don't like Jake's character that much. Sure, you got all the psychiatrists jumping up and down about what a bad influence Bella is to young girls and how Edward's behavior is supposedly a red flag for an abusive relationship (I take it all these goofballs are still without wives and such. Seriously, worry about that kid with Schizophrenia, instead of analyzing a YA book to death. Before we know it, we've got a new terrorist organization called Meyerpires, who consume people's blood in the name of Edward.... ) So yeah, the first is the best. Bella got a bit too whacked in New Moon, so it was hard to understand why Wolf Boy was so into her. Also, there werewolf thing has been done many times before and better. Just read "Bitten" by Kelly Armstrong and you'll understand. Eclipse was a bit better, though Edward proceeded to act like an overprotective parent in the first half of the book. The "ultimate battle" disappointed me too. Breaking Dawn...well let's say that the chemistry between Dazzle Sparkle and Perfect Dull Girl wore thin.... Hey, that's fine. I actually enjoyed myself as well. It's just that the Cullens left a whole trail of babypowder behind them and the baddies were just....bad. No matter how much I liked James' six pack.

Looks vs. Personality
I've been thinking this over for a while, and come to th conclusion that though my entire statement about how personality is THE ONLY thing that matters, it's simply not true. I think the two things co-exist. I've met gorgeous people, girls that were as pretty as Jessica Alba and guys that match whatever poster boy you have put up as the ultimate fantasy. Some were nice, others weren't. And what really surprised me is how much their appearance is influenced by their personality. I remember this beautiful guy (yes, beautiful was the only word for him) and I wanted to like him (heh, as did the 20 other gals working in the store) but he was just so arrogant and irritating, I went cold on him within a minute. He suddenly looked very different from the way he did when he walked in. I don't know if I'm making sense. It also works the way around. Who else has grown attracted to people they didn't notice at first? Like Q's example, I'm betting there are many more out there.

Boob-to-butt ratio
hmm visuals. I think you're just looking for an excuse to post Keyra Agustina. She's like the billboard advertisement for girls with small boobs (but with a great ass). Anyway, for all the boys secretly keeping tabs on this thread, I'll set the example for once and who knows, this thread might grow into a another 100 page visual of bums and flat chest appreciation Anyway, here we go: Keyra: What can I say? Her ass is better known than her face. You don't have to be a scientist to see that her ass definitely outmatches her bust in the size department. Keira Knightley: One thing I always noticed about Keira is that unlike other lollipop skinny girls, she actually has very "normal" (as in slim-not bony) legs and a bum. That's also the reason why she's not on my too-skinny list. I mean, her bust is as flat as Samantha Ronson's but where sam actually looks like a 10 year old boy on meth, Keira still looks like a woman. Visual: here's a pic that illustrates this well:

Well, I got a whole bunch of movie screencaps, still, so if everyone feels like guessing, I'm happy to supply the pics. But I'll wait to see what Joe wants.

Yeah, it was an upgrade by fakefactory for the game Half Life 2. The female character Alyx is replaced by a next-gen version of Adri. If I had a comp to support the specs, I'd download it, but oh well.....

Oops sorry, I kinda let myself go I was simply sifting through my random collection of screencaps, thinking "how fast will they guess this one?" and just started putting it up. Sorry Alien777, didn't mean to take your turn!

Yup, correct! Trust your second thoughts, I'd say. Anyone have a clue on which episode?

Runway
That too, KK is and always will be gorgeous I was just wondering. Belly buttons are pretty much the ugliest feature on a body, and hers is non existent.

I actually think 2007 was better than 2008. Maybe it was the music. There's no denying Adriana's figure is better in 2008 show, but the make-up ruined her look. Also, did you guys notice the public responded a lot less than they did in 2007? In 2007, Adriana walked in and pretty much took off the roof. And that moment Ale walks up and people instantly started clapping and cheering. You didn't have that in 2008. When Adriana came in with the diamond bra, there was hardly any response. What had been advertised as "the big surprise" barely seemed to draw attention. In 2007, she model goddesses seemed to be goddesses: they had everyone at their feet. It made it easier to suspend your disbelief. In 2008, all the pretty kisses, over the top smiles, and hip shaking looked oddly rediculous. I wasn't as impressed with Doutzen as I thought I would be either. She's like a...perfect barbie. Beautiful, but boring. She's from my country, so naturally she scores higher with me because of that, but Candice was the real blonde looker in my opinion. And what the hell happened to KK's bellybutton?!

Hair
No problem Glad I could help. To get it that shiny, here are a few pointers: -I stopped blow-drying my hair and I used some deep conditioners. -Also, I use a hair mask every week (deep conditioner, leave it in for 20 mins, after shampooing and you'll have really smooth shiny hair. And not to advertise, but that John Frieda Color Glaze for brunettes really works. Great shine and it revives hair color. It's just very expensive. But there are cheaper versions out there. -I don't comb it while it's wet: to detangle, I simply use my fingers. -I only comb it twice a day, to prevent damage. Also your hair doesn't get greasy quickly when you do that. - I don't use harsh rubber bands, just those soft ones, or chinese hair sticks. They look pretty cool. - When that pic was taken, it was a week after the dye job, so the color was real fresh. Also, they chopped off a good piece of my hair, so all that was dead was gone: instant thickness.

New Moon
Death wishes? That would imply I have no life at all! No worries, I understand why you don't like him. If I hadn't seen him in several interviews being entirely the opposite of the movie role, I would've hated him too. I honestly think it's just bad directing. Everyone seemed forced, as if unsure of what to do with the dialog given them. No wonder Kristen Stewart sounded so monotone. I enjoyed the film, but it would've been better if the actors had been more into their roles. Pattison was pretty bent on meeting the phsyical requirements and isolating himself to get an idea of what that must be like for the character. But then the director told him and KS to "lighten up" since she didn't really take it seriously herself and that's when everything started to derail. I think that with movies like this-- you either do it true to the book, including the acting, or when you tell the actors to lighten up you give them dialog to lighten up about. The only funny thing Rob got to say was Spider Monkey and that wasn't even thát funny.

Twilight
Great, another likeminded person! Check this little rant: a Breaking Dawn review by a boy; it's hilarious and he coveys exactly how I feel about the book. WARNING: contains spoilers! As for the original choice to play Edward, when I saw this picture, I thought he fit the bill pretty well. Still though, Spunk Random (a.k.a. Pattison) did the job well and I like his dry humor.

New Moon
They recast Jacob, because that Taylor kid looked too young to fit the part Jacob will fill in the movie-- Their words, not mine Storywise, I prefer Edward over the Jacob character, but that's just because I like Pattison. If only they'd allow some of his British humor in the movie...then Edward wouldn't be such a stiff cardboard.
