Watching it with the girls
Good friends with great taste are such a blessing. And we had soooo much fun watching it together. It was such a blast and am glad we had the opportunity to do so.
Dax Sheppard and James Franco surprises
All of the guest stars in the film were great during the club scene but Dax Shepphard (Kristen Bell’s real-life husband and father of her daughter) is a complete idiot trying to hit on Veronica—seriously nothing made me laugh more.
The next best guest star was definitely James Franco, Dick mentions a viral video and they literally watch it and then the film cuts to James Franco in his trailer. So much perfection.
Mac, Wallace, and Veronica
Lifelong friends that allow you to fall back into old patterns is amazing. Plus it was like they missed Veronica as much as we did. Also, Mac's hair is amazing!
Texting her Dad when facing death
Her dad is literally lying unconscious in a hospital and even though she knows he won’t get the message for a while she makes sure he knows that she loves him more than anything. It is the sweetest thing in the movie. Those two always take care of each other and their bond is so strong.
Piz and Veronica break up
Okay, I’m not heartless. While yes it did provide the opportunity for the now respectful Logan and hesitant Veronica to reunite, it also for the first time ever made me feel bad for Piz. Because after all, he is a good guy, he just happens not to be the right guy for my girl Veronica. In this scene, we see his strength, because he tells her that they don’t belong together. Which is not an easy thing to do, especially if you love that person. He realized it wasn’t enough and in his heartbreak was strong.
Old Jokes in a New Movie
There were several amazing moments and references to the series but I definitely loved the fact that Piz never having a murder charge made him a great boyfriend. Veronica sure can pick them.
Logan has changed for the better
 |
| "You should only wear this"-Veronica |
So Logan, ahem actually became an adult. He’s still charming, still has his fire and is often fighting a battle within himself. But he’s a JAG, what he could have become yet another celeb’s kid gone bad but instead, he decided to serve his country. And he was pretty sweet with Carrie Bishop, he took responsibility in their relationship even for things that may have been beyond his control. I can finally say kudos, Logan.
Lesson Learned
The film starts with Veronica in New York, she made it out of her small idiotic town and was on the path to become a successful high power lawyer. I mean that’s the dream, right to successfully escape your hometown and never look back. But it turns out dreams aren’t always what they’re cracked up to be. In the end, Veronica discovers that she was always meant to fight the good fight in Neptune. Being a good guy and feeding her habit.
It’s extremely comforting to know that sometimes you don’t have to look too far to find your true purpose, your happily ever after.
LoVe Scene(s)
Yes! I am a total girl for this but when Logan carried her up the steps after her Father’s accident. My heart just soared because I knew it was on, I knew it was meant to be, I knew nothing could ever separate them again. And I literally started having flashbacks to the good ole days before rape accusations, Madison, Piz, lies, and arguments. Their chemistry was off the charts and just so perfect. I could not have imagined/wrote it better myself.
My hopes and dreams were confirmed, when they are separating for 180 days and they repeat my favorite scene to one another, line by line. Epic indeed.
