The Matticus Kingdom 
I’m kind of getting sick of telling you congratulations for all your dang awards! Again … congrats! 🙂
LOL! And all you have to do is say “Congratulations!” Imagine my side of it… grumble, grumble, all those people reading my blog and liking it and nominating me for things! It’s terrible! 😛
I can only imagine!!! I feel horrible for you!
It’s a burden, I won’t lie. Thank you for the support! Perhaps you’d like to share in this burden with me?
OK, ok! I’ll take all your awards from you! Feel better?
No, no, no, not taken from. Shared! I’ve added you to the nomination list for the Awesome Blog Content award! Congrats! Can’t wait to see what you do with the A – Z. 😀
Thank you for this award and I will try my best 🙂
Thank you for the nomination!
You definitely fit the bill – awesome blog content. Plus, with your creativity I’m interested to see what you’ll come up with for the A-Z.
I’d better get cracking on with it then!
Ack! Homework! I mean, uh, thanks? Yeah, that’s what I meant.
I know exactly what you mean. And, you’re welcome. 😉
Lol.
You went with X-Men: The Last Stand over X2?
I thought I might get some flack for that… Even though they butchered the Dark Phoenix story line (butchered isn’t even a strong enough word); I still liked the movie more than the first two. “That’s why you send the pawns first.”
It felt like two movies crammed into one. They should have just wrapped up the Magneto storyline and kept hinting at Phoenix for part four.
I agree – they could have done so much more with that – it definitely could have been at least one movie on its own, if not more – probably could have been a trilogy.
Same thing happened in Spider-Man 3. It’s like when they get to part three, they get tired of it all, and try to cram everything together.
Spider-Man 3 broke my heart. The second one is one of my favorite superhero movies (“Go get ’em, Tiger.”), I’d probably have in my top ten list of all movies. And then they came out with 3… Too many story lines trying to get twisted together and it was a complete disaster. My wife, who enjoyed the first two movies, kept asking when we were going to watch the 3rd one (I had seen it without her) and I told her “never, ever, ever, am I going to subject you to that, the series ends with the 2nd one, and the bittersweet image of MJ watching Spidey swinging off to save the day again.”
Haha, clever way to answer this! And I must commend you for your excellent movie choices too! Though I’m curious; why did you go with The Two Towers? =o
“Ride out with me.”
“The Ents are going to war.”
And a few other moments in that movie, make it my favorite of the trilogy. 🙂

Congrats and thanks! How am I going to stack up to your list? P is for pressure!
R is for Rising to the Challenge! 😉
Congrats and thank you, haha! I love this. I’m going to have to put my thinking cap on. 🙂
Which is exactly why I nominated you! Wanted to see what you would come up with in response!
It dawned on me at some point today that if I had it to do over again, instead of movies, I’d do an A – Z of the blog posts that have meant the most to me since I joined WP.
Dude, Princess Bride? No, no, no! Bad! Just bad!! Haha, sorry – someone had to say it!
Inconceivable?!! It’s only one of the great movies ever made. Romance, true love, sword fighting, comedy, Andre the giant, pirates, secret plots, mystery… It’s perfect. But, if you don’t like perfect, who am I to argue with you. As you wish…
It’s probably the one of the worst movies I have ever seen!
It’s old, doesn’t make any sense what so ever to anything and it’s not girly princess movie thing-a-ma-jig!
Yes, there is a level of “girly princess movie”!

Thanks for thinking of me! I’m probably not going to take this one on (slightly busy over here, haha) but I appreciate it.
No worries at all. 😉 Busy? Busy? It’s not like you are trying to sell one house and move into another one… Oh, it is like that? Oh, yeah, then of course you get a pass. 😉
