Avril Lavigne

Yo!

I was just searching for some cool new Avril news, AND i found a new Podcast that's pretty much all about Avril and William Shatner talking about their roles in "Over the Hedge" as Ozzie and Heather the Possums!
There's some pretty sweet new clips of the movie and Avril explains her character a little but more, and of course she talks about how her character always gets embarressed because of her dad always trying to play dead. Which apparently possoms do when they get scared ?

The video is great! Click here to check it out!

ALSO, if you were on the official "Over the hedge " website then you should definately check it out again cause its updated.



And be sure to check out the new Photo Shoot pics of Avril for "Over the Hedge" by clicking here! (Thanks to avrilgirl1 and missu in the forums!)




Plus here's my last "Over the Hedge" posts, if you haven't already seen them!

- Reviews of the Movie by (Lucky) People who got a Sneak Peek!

- A Big "Over the Hedge" Update about the Movie and Video Game!

UPDATE: I just added a video showing some of the game in the link above!

July 2006 Update: The post below was written back when Avril and Deryck anounced their engagement. But if you want to read my newest post about Avril and Deryck's wedding THIS weekend then click here to read it! (Just so you have the latest news) :-)
...
Okay, i'm always reading rumours about Avril on the internet, so i figured HEY why not make a talk about it hee too - So everytime i read a news paper, TV report, or something online about Avril i'll put it in here (and say whther I think it is real news or just a rumor.) Such as when I posted about the rumour about Avril being pregnant .

So yes, i've seen a few new repots in forums saying that Avril has been sending out wedding invitations! Ouu lala : )

According to eTalk Daily, Avril and Deryck have set the big day for August 26, 2006 taking place in BEAUTIFUL Santa Barbara, California.

There's a video clip online with the eTalk Daily video that mentions it : )

And TMZ.com, without mentioning an actual wedding date, reported:

Lavigne ... has told her friends to brace themselves for a traditional white wedding at an undisclosed church in Beverly Hills. But the reception will be a different story.

The "lovebirds" plan to have circus performers, comedians and "known" rock bands playing during the celebration. Afterwards, they'll jet-to Paris, then a villa in the South of France.

At the moment Avril, 21, and Deryck, 26, are renovating the house they bought together in Santa Monica. She's already turning one of the bedroom's into a nursery.

Coincidentally, Avril's mom Judy just got married too (remarried) in Picton, Ontario... which is like 20 minutes away from Avril's home in Napanee, not even. She said her "I do's" on April 8th! (I think that's the right date - according to a post I saw by someone who lives in Picton and saw Avril at during the weekend her mom got married... link below)

On a few forums they had some screen shots from a Newspaper about the wedding. They didn't give credit to the source, but i think it was written by Sue Capon for "The County Weekly News" in Prince Edward County.

I cleaned up the screen shot and divided them up so I could fit both the pic and article here...



UPDATE: It's funny what you can accidentally find on the internet.... because I just saw a post written by a woman who dated the guy Avril's mom just married!

It's an interesting post about the wedding AND she also says Avril looks like she could be 4 months pregnant!

Hey!

I've written before about the upcoming movie "Over the Hedge" that features Avril Lavigne as the voice of Heather the Possum, and today I saw that some (lucky!) people got to see a sneak peek of it!

The version they saw was not completely done though - two reviewers said "We were informed that the cut we were about to see was only 85% complete.." and "The movie was not 100% complete, so there were parts where the animation wasn't finished, and even a very short part where it was still storyboards, so no animation at all..."

But all the reviews for Over the Hedge are really good!

I'll just list a few quotes from the actual "reviews" of the movie and a few more blog entries by people who also got a sneak peek....

SPOILER WARNING!

I will not quote anything that reveals TOO much of the movie plot (a lot of it can be figured out by watching the movie's trailer) but some of the actual reviews and blog posts do talk about parts of the movie I didn't know about.

So if you want to be completely surprised about everything when you first see the movie hen it is in theaters, then don't read anything below here...! :-)

'Over the Hedge' is one of the cutest films I've ever seen...

Hedge also has some great and memorable sequences but a few of them really stick out...

Over the Hedge is a must see movie not just for families or animation lovers but for everyone..

Grade: A

Over the Hedge flies by, and satisfies every step of the way...

This is a film definitely geared towards kids, though it’s smart enough that adults will find it easy to get involved in...

A big part of why the film works so well is the character models they’ve used for their animal characters. They’re fantastically well done ... it’s a delight to simply sit and watch them hop around the screen.

Kids are going to love it, and geeky parents will get a kick out of William Shatner’s possum character and his penchant for overly dramatic deaths.

Wanda Sykes (appeared at the screening) (she) plays a feisty skunk, named Stella in the film!

Hammy (the squirrel) is a riot or more appropriately, NUTTY! LOL! In fact, one moment in the film that sticks out in my mind is his funny impression of a hungry, rabid squirrel! OMG! HILARIOUS!

Being the mom and kid at heart that I am, I took a likening to this film and I'll definitely see it again with my kiddies! We "humans" can be quite funny when viewed from the eyes of our outdoor neighbors!! :)

I just saw an advance work-in-progress screening last weekend of DreamWorks animated film, Over The Hedge and it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. As a matter of fact, I was pleasantly delighted by it.

Steve Carrell steals the show (as always) as Hammy the squirrel and his character's got most of the funny bits (particularly one involving caffeine) Imagine an over-caffeinated squirrel! It was just too much.

What makes Over The Hedge better than some of the bad CGI that's come out lately is that it dabbles in being a solid animated heist/caper movie at the end of the second act, playing to the strengths of the animal characters.

I brought my little sister to the screening and she loved it. Most of the adults laughed at the bits that were geared towards life in suburbia, but the kids in the audience got a kick out of the whole damn thing.... it's definitely better than Madagascar.

This past weekend I got to see a preview screening of "Over the Hedge" staring Bruce Willis.

This movie definitely is not on the zero to suck scale. This thing was laugh out loud fun! And to think, it wasn't finished when I saw it!!!

Wow, it makes you wonder what the rest of the world is doing when a movie that isn't finished is better then 99% of the crap out there.

Good Job Dreamworks! You really made a winner this time!

I think kids will like the movie a lot. It's full of talking animals, and kids dig that.

So that's all the reviews I could find about the sneek peek version of "Over the Hedge" - and I can't wait for it to hit theaters next month!
