HW2 Soundtrack


Well, I just started searching around for more news on the Hoodwinked 2 soundtrack and here it is: it turns out that the digital soundtrack is coming out April 26th, and it will be released on CD format May 17th. To add to that, Amazon now has all the names of the songs up, as well as thirty second or so previews of them. The names are as follows:

1. Happily Ever Before
2. Operation Free The Children
3. Out Of Reach
4. Red
5. Sister Hoods
6. HEA
7. Hoodwinked Hop
8. A Hasty Exit
9. A Long Standing Feud
10. The Amazing Granny Puckett
11. How It All Started
12. On The Trail Of Evil
13. An Unwelcome Disturbance
14. Three Pigs
15. A Pitiful Fight
16. The Song Of Kirk
17. The Unstoppable Hoods
18. A Dastardly Growth Spurt
19. Red Down
20. Legs
21. Go Red!
22. A Gigantic Problem
23. In Training
24. All In The Balance
25. Swaggering Through The City
26. Fight The Fight, Fighters
27. Until Next Time
28. Hoodwinked Logo

I'm fairly relieved that the song names don't really spoil anything (I spoiled part of Tangled by looking at the soundtrack names once). They tell you just a little bit, but are vague enough to keep you guessing. The weirdest one, though, is "Legs". While I have a slight idea of what it means, I don't get why they called it that. :/

The previews are pretty interesting as well. The whole soundtrack seems to have a bit of a jazzy feel to it. I'm partially glad that they only give you part of the songs, because I caught what I think is the cue for something happening in the movie and it cuts off almost right after that. You can find the previews here.

Ugh, it's SO close! Less then four days! I think I'm gonna go insane from waiting! x_x

New Countdown Timer

Just stopping in to say that I finally found a countdown generator. This is great because even if I don't post, the countdown is here and it's more accurate. So... yeah. I don't have much time to type, so I'll put another post up later sometime. :)

A Few Corrections

Countdown to Hoodwinked Too: 1 week, 2 days.

Okay, I meant to say this earlier, but I never got the chance to. First of all, I'd like to make some corrections about what I updated about in the webcast. The "two or three new trailers" are actually commercials. Looks like I was too excited (and exasperated, at seeing a spoiler) to see new footage that I forgot to check how long they were. Oops.

Second of all, if you missed the webcast, it's been recorded on the player on the post below. Just wait for the trailer to end, and it'll show up. Just be aware that at the end, the host gives away the same spoiler that was in the commercial I saw, so if you don't want to know it, turn the video off when she starts reading the cast list.

And, yes, that is a countdown at the top of the post. I might make a graphic for it, but I seriously doubt I have time to, so I'll just keep it like I have here for now. :/

HW2 Red Carpet Premiere LIVE Broadcast

Today is a big day. The Hoodwinked 2 premiere is just about to start! For those of you who don't live in California, which includes me, you can watch the LIVE broadcast below.

Live Streaming by Ustream.TV

The channel is switching between the trailer and some short footage of what's going on at the theater right now. It said at 9:35 PST that the broadcast would start in 25 minutes, so it'll probably keep the loop going until 10:00 PST. I can't wait! :D :D :D

Stay tuned for further updates.

UPDATE: Two or three new trailers commercials have just been shown. One, unfortunately, contained a spoiler. Sigh. -_-
UPDATE 2: The broadcast has officially started! :D :D :D

Don't Go Too Far or You'll Miss It

Hey howdy ho! I meant to put up a post a few days earlier than this, but oh well. There are just a few HW2 updates today.

-The soundtrack comes out April 26th, according to Amazon.
-Commercials are now on the air. Not sure how many, but the one I saw looked like a shorted version of the trailer (audio sounds that aren't in the movie and all). :/
-A new movie still has been released!


Granny's head looks a bit too big, but that's just me.
This picture is especially interesting, because it's the first to show all the main characters together in the actual movie. 

And the biggest news so far, (that I actually found out while writing this post) THERE'S A CLIP! It shows the first part of the fight between Red and the Bridge Troll. When's April 29th gonna get here?! I want more!

And for those of you who have not seen the Cars 2 promo Pixar put up April 1st, I'd suggest that you do. It's HILARIOUS. Plus, there's something... interesting at the end of the video.

Long Time No Post

Wow, I really need to work on updating regularly. My last post was, what, March 7th? So... I've gotten my computer back with everything except my Favorites still intact. I was kind of upset about that, but I needed to clean up the list anyway.

The Hoodwinked 2 people made another update a few weeks ago by putting up recipes on both their Facebook and official site. And by "recipes", I mean "recipes that are probably no different from any others and that have nothing to do with the movie".

I mean, I can see why they'd put up recipes, with the Sisters of the Hood being that cooking group or whatever, but it's kind of weird to see a company promoting with recipes that don't have anything the film they go with besides decorating it with characters and backgrounds from it. (I'd like to rewrite that sentence, but I don't know how to word it differently. :/)

Anyhow, at least we got to see a new picture of Kirk/the Woodsman that isn't a Woodsman Because He's a Yodeler.

I'm thinking about writing some reviews sometime, but I'm not sure about what at the moment. Right now, the top choices are Chrono Trigger DS, the new VeggieTales 'Twas the Night Before Easter, or some other movie/game that I want to put down my opinions about.

Originally, I was going to end this post with a video of a song that talked about things not being related to a movie. But there are no videos of it up on YouTube, so instead, here's another video of a song that's from the same series. It has absolutely NOTHING to do with this blog post (except for the fact that it has nothing to do with it), so I think it's a good replacement. Enjoy!

Computer Problems

I have some good news and some bad news. The good news is, I've found two new posters for Hoodwinked 2!



Well, technically, I found them yesterday, but I didn't get the chance to post them. Which brings me to the bad news. My computer has been having a problem with the blue screen of death for a while now. Basically, every time we restart the computer, it comes up, unless we're really lucky and it allows us to bypass. Well, yesterday we had to turn off the computer because we thought the power was gonna go out. And when we turned it on again, guess what came up?

I'll give you one guess.
  I was fed up with this, so my dad and I called the computer repair guy we go to. We described the situation to him and he thinks that the hard drive is corrupt. We're taking the computer over to his place tomorrow to get it fixed.

Basically, I won't be able to go on much until we get it back. We do have another computer and laptop, but the computer is my dad's and the mouse pad on the laptop always makes the page scroll instead of moving the mouse. So, I'll see about updating you guys once I get it back.
