I thought the first one was great, and I want to see this one. ^_^

I really enjoyed the themes in the first one (ugly duckling, being oneself rather than a figurehead, importance of family). I'm worried that this one is going to be shallow in it's approach to marriage and finding love. I think that's a deep subject (especially when you want a marriage that will last). Hopefully it will be good though!

At any rate, I can't find anyone who will see it with me though! :doh:

The other nite me and my friend Lara rented the first one and it just really made me wanna see the 2nd one.

But it won't be the same without Robert Schwartzman/Carmine from Rooney- 'Michael'. He was cool. :(

But I wanna see it sometime soon.

I saw part of the first one when I was babysitting... and I wasn't sure I would like it.. we didn't get through much of it and I had to go home. Then I was on a ferry and it was on and I wanted to see the end of it so I watched it... I love that movie!

I haven't seen the 2nd one...

I read the first book. I really didn't like it. All the 'Oh My God's and whatnot. It seemed pretty far from the 'G' rating of the first movie. Even Michael (is that The Moscovitz' boy?)'s IM screenname was 'CracKing'. Also, Mia's teacher was found in Mia's and her mother's apartment in his boxers. Beer and other forms of alcohol were also mentioned. That I didn't like. I'll just keep sitting in the theatres with the seven-year-olds, thank you. ;)

Valid concerns, but part of the reason I think the books are so great is the way they make light that culture and those preoccupations. I don't think they're there to influence people. I bought the first one expecting it to be nice and sweet like the film and ended up loving the wicked, laugh-out-loud humour of them. The author was really clever, I thought, in creating a character who's an average teen girl (struggling at school and with friends, dealing with her mum's new relationship etc.) but at the same time is living out this unbelievable fantasy - finding out she's a princess. I'm currently pushing the series on all my friends :)

Eeek, that probably belonged in the books forum :blush: lol

I find the first Princess Diaries a really fun, enjoyable, safe, cute romp. Perfect for when I'm in the mood for a chick-flick that isn't rated 18A (that's R to those South of the border)...I perfer to keep the higher ratings for really excellent movies with a message or a point.

I hope the second one is just lots of fun, too!
