Movies watched in 2009
Filed Under Lists, Movies | 10 Comments
I’m a movie addicted. I can sit and watch four movies in a row because I simply love getting lost in them (and I like lots and lots of actors hehe). Last year I decided to list every singe movie I watched (no matter how many times, I’d still list it). Yes, I know is kind of scary but it was the only resolution I did from the beginning to the end haha. And now, it became an habit to write down the movies I watched, so I think I’m going to keep this until I get bored.
Anyway, I got to sit down in front of my TV to watch a movie 243 times… I re-watched lots of movies because I love doing that but they’re still in the list. So here’s my list… it goes under a cut ’cause it’s LONG!. If you’re interested on watching any of these movies, I can let you know if it’s good or not before you get it haha!.
– Watched on Theater
– I own

Loved in 2009
Filed Under Actors, Concerts, Lists, Me, Movies, Musicians, Songs, Videos | 6 Comments
I saw this at my friend Illara’s journal and thought I should do something similar since I tend to love a lot of things in one single year, so here’s a list of things that won my heart on 2009. I shall warn you it’s going to be a LONG list hehe!.
1.- DEAD BY SUNRISE
Obviously, the best about 2009 was Chester’s band Dead By Sunrise. Like I’ve said before, whatever Chester Bennington is in, I’m going to support it and I simply fell for this new band, the music is AMAZING. And I was extremely happy that I finally heard something totally CHESTER. His lyrics, his music, his voice, this was a true work of Chester Bennington, so it’s very special for me!.
2.- RYAN SHUCK
I was never really into Orgy and I never paid that much attention to Julien-K and at first, I thought I wouldn’t like Dead By Sunrise’s other members, ’cause I only cared about Chester, I seriously thought it would be hard for me to like other guys that weren’t Linkin Park. BUT it only took me one interview to love Ryan, he’s so funny and I simply liked him. Plus, I love the interaction in interviews with him and Chester, you can easily see they’re true friends just having fun and that’s amazing.
3.- MIKE SHINODA’S PICTURE
What can I say? I’m loving his style and this picture is simply PERFECT and I fell for it, I can spend minutes staring at it.
4.- TALINDA BENNINGTON
I know she’s not a real celeb. And I don’t normally follow Chester Bennington’s personal life, ’cause after all it should be PERSONAL. But I got a chance to know this lady a little bit more than only from pictures and she’s amazing. I never thought she’d be as nice as she actually is, and I really really liked her.
5.- HE’S JUST NOT THAT INTO YOU (Alex & Gigi)
This movie rocks, I loved it. I totally fell for Alex and Gigi’s relationship since the beginning. How Alex was always true to her even though he seemed to be cruel. I watched it again last night, and I could watch it over and over again. Simply PERFECT!. And it was always good to learn that when a guy wants to see a girl, he’ll make it possible.
6.- TWILIGHT SAGA: NEW MOON
I never thought I would like this movie as much as I did. There was one time in my life that I had a love triangle that I usually compare with these three fictional characters. My personal brand of heroin that I could never resist, and the guy that offered me everything a girl would want and was healthier for me but I always rejected. And this movie reminded me of that time. Specially the line that goes something like “Don’t make me choose, it’s always been him” or something like that.
7.- TAYLOR LAUTNER
If you wonder why I put Taylor and not my RPattz on the list, it’s because I fell for Robert in 2005, not in 2009 heh!. Anyway, I never liked Taylor, never ever… until I saw New Moon. Then I read he was 17 and now I feel like a sinner for lusting after a CHILD haha. I’m still Team Edward though hehe.
8.- ENRIQUE BUNBURY’S CONCERT
It was AMAZING the best concert I’ve ever been in. Even though I had a heartbreaking moment when it was canceled in my city, I got to travel and still see him live and it was totally worth it. He’s an amazing performer and I got to sing my favorite songs along with the man itself. An experience I’ll NEVER forget.
9.- ENRIQUE BUNBURY’S AUTOGRAPH
I’ve never had an autograph in my entire life that I trully treasured. The only three pretty cool autographs I got are Alex Lora’s (from a band called El Tri), Ty Dennis’ (from Riders on The Storm formely The Doors) and this one, but this is the coolest one ’cause I adore Enrique Bunbury and is one of my top favorite artists from all time.
10.- AMERICA VS. ATLANTE MATCH
My favorite soccer team has been America since I was a little kid. I had never seen a match live, I did for the first time this year and it was AMAZING being there in the crowd, shouting things to my team. Specially ’cause I have a crush on one of their players called Memo Ochoa haha!.
11.- CHESTER’S TWEET
Even though he got my twitter name wrong, I really appreciated that he thanked me. It was trully, one of the best days of my life haha I was so incredibly happy I couldn’t believe he knew a ChesterDEAN existed somewhere and it was really really sweet. He made me smile like prolly no one has ever done it.
12.- CHESTERDEAN.NET
Even though the site isn’t that great and sometimes it lacks of interesting content, making it was GREAT and I’ve got to know amazing people and it’s always nice to have a place to go and rant about my favorite things and read about the things my friends likes. So, making this site is part of the things I loved this year.
13.- BIGGER
I don’t have the actual album yet (This is Us) of the Backstreet Boys but I have it on my computer. And I’m simple addicted to the song Bigger. The lyrics reminds me how I could have loved a jekr and still stood by his side because I was in love… like he could dedicate this song to me and fit our relationship haha. Plus, Brian looks freaking adorable in the video and AJ is wearing a Jim Morrison tee. Even though I’d have loved if the video had something to do with the lyrics, that’d had been awesome.
14.- CHESTER’S PLAID SHIRTS
I’m loving that Chester’s wearing plaid shirts again. It brings back the nostalgia when plaid shirts were his favorites around 2001 and I was a brand new fan. It reminds me of the good old times when I was young and found the band that I’d love forever.
15.- FIRE
And finally… the song Fire by Dead By Sunrise. I’ve already made a post about this song and how special it is to me. Back in 2005-ish that I was going through the worst time of my life, Chester Bennington gave me “Let Down” and now, that time changed me, he now gave me “Fire”. And it kind of expresses a lot of things I feel and think. So this year, THIS is MY song and I’m gonna always be grateful with Chester Bennington for always making a special song that would help me cope with my personal demons.

A dedicated fan?
Filed Under Actors, Lists, Movies | Leave a Comment
Well, I think I’ve let everyone know already that I don’t usually follow actors for too long, they are just a few actors I really like and Robert Downey Jr is one of them. I remember liking him when I was a kid but I didn’t follow his career until I saw him in Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang before I even saw Iron Man. It’s been almost a year and a half already, and I can’t believe I’ve already seen 26 of his movies, that’s a LOT specially coming from me, because if I can’t find them I download them, I usually buy the DVD’s, so… it’s a real hard work and I do it happily ’cause I love watching his movies. I saw In Dreams the other night and he keeps reminding me how much I love him, he’s amazing and a great actor. He won the title of “Favorite Actor” along with Ewan McGregor (and I’ve followed his career longer and haven’t seen as many movies) in only a year, isn’t that crazy?. Here’s the list of the movies I’ve seen of RDJ.
The Soloist (2009)
Tropic Thunder (2008)
The Incredible Hulk (2008)
Iron Man (2008)

So, CHESTERDEAN.NET finally has a new layout up. A lot darker than the other one, I was already tired of the light colors hehe. This time featuring my John Lennon, you see? Lennon and McCartney HAVE to go one after the other, or the two of them together, I just can’t tear them apart hehe. I also added a list of links in a section called “Topics” which are the most used topics on my blog, in that way you can surf the site more easily or look for something you’re interested.
Anyway, here’s the list of movies I watched in July:

I can’t believe I only watched 17 movies. I haven’t had enough time to watch them it sucks! But I’m glad I’ve kept my summer active and eventful. On the other hand, my account at chester-land.net isn’t working right, so I can’t post anything or login for that matter, that’s why I had a little time to come here and change the look of the site. I should do the same with CL as soon as I get my account back.

I have to say, that I had never seen Shakespeare in Love before because I thought it was boring, so every time I caught it on TV I’d switch the channel right away, but I didn’t this time and I quite liked it. Joseph Fiennes is really cute on that movie, and I finally saw another Ben Affleck film (I used to love him hehe). And that’s it, I don’t have much to say right now!.
