The 22 of February, one of the most important event for famous people toke place in Los Angeles. Every year actors, directors, producers, etc. try to produce the best movie to win an Oscar. The question is did people liked the Oscars this year?
As a page in the internet shown this year the Oscars had more views than last year. I think that one reason people watched them was because of the Oscar Head Ledger received. As we know he is dead so people didn’t knew if he was going to won the Oscar and if he does, who was going to receive it. He won the Oscar because he’s amazing performance, being the joker in “The Dark Night”. His family received it, her mother, his father and her sister.

emo!
EMO
I don’t have anything against emos. I mean, if they really believe in the emo culture and they really follow the "rules". If they want to dress all in black and cover one eye and cut themselves, let them do it. I think that they are responsible of their own actions and they will also suffer the consequences. What I really hate are posers. If you are going to be emo, be a true one. Don’t be an emo just because of the trends and fashion. I hate people who attack emos. These people should let them be.

My opinion about emo`s
I don’t have anything against emos. I think that by cutting themselves or attempt suicide is a bad way of ending with their problems. If that’s they culture they believe there should be a reason and think that’s the best way of living. I am against the people that treat then bad because we should respect everyone not just because you don’t like the way they dress, the music they hear or what they think.

Film review!
"Sweenet Todd (the demon barber of Fleet Street)" Film review.
Sweeney Todd is a Musical and is based on a Broadway play. The director of this movie is Tim Burton. The main characters are: Mr. Todd played by Jhonny Depp(Pirates of the caribean) , Mrs. Lovett played by Helena Bonham Carter (Corpse Bride.) .
The story takes place in London, in the 19th century. It's the story of a man, Benjamin Barker, who gets to prison years earlier on false charges by Judge Tupin. The Judge takes advantege of this and keeps the barber's daughter. After a few years Benjamin Barker comes back to London and decides to get revenge. He decides he will kill all who sit in his baber chair until he gets the Judge. From that day on he will no longer be Benjamin Barker but the Demon barber of Fleet Street: Sweeney Todd. During that time he meets Mrs. Lovett, a young woman with economical problems. She falls in love with him and decides to help him with his killing plan. He makes a series of mistakes and finally: dies.
I think Sweeney Todd is one of the best musicals i have ever seen. The movie is filled with suspence and drama. Jhonny Depp interpretates amazingly his character and sings for the first time in any movie. Helena Bonham is an excellent singer and an amazing actress.
