My husband just yesterday purchased a copy of The Incredible Hulk DVD and I must say it’s better than I thought it to would be. We see scientist Bruce Banner living in darkness, scrubbing the world for an antidote. However the militarists who daydream of abusing his abilities won’t leave him be, nor will his need to hook up with the only woman he has ever loved, Betty Ross.

The Incredible Hulk stars the perpetually strong Edward Norton. It also stars the beautiful Liv Tyler and every bit as real Tim Roth and directed by the gifted Louis Leterrier. The movie grossed a acceptable $134 million at the box office since it’s debut June 13th. It was wrote by Zak Penn and Edward Harrison, produced by Avi Arad, Gale Anne Hurd and Kevin Feige.

I’m still not excessively overenthusiastic about the persona, but the film is rapid, well acted, and captures that precious comic book sense. From its metaphorical anger management to a stringently platonic not so incredible hunk, this massive on the muscle mass and low on the drama The Incredible Hulk Blu-ray is not exactly new and improved, but does shape its own brand of differently conceived mega action magic. A solid thrill ride. In That Respect are a couple witty pieces, and the whole moves swiftly.

Still, even if there weren’t script and performance inadequacies — and there certainly are — the big problem with both Hulk movies is that the lead character is an unconvincing CG innovation. Boring pacing and a muted sound production only contribute to the CGI disaster inflicted on what could have been a believable superhero made with 21st century engineering.

On the whole The Incredible Hulk is a worthwhile waste of a weekend. Strange a design as it is, The Incredible Hulk actually calculates as something of a winner. The Incredible Hulk offers the action and hullabaloo to please comic book buffs and re-ignite this failing franchise.

The Queen Of Hearts costume for Halloween for Halloween may not be the one on most people’s lips this year but from an attention grabbing point-of-view, there will be few to match it. It’s just perfect for the season of ghouls and Goblins.

In fact, there is some variety to consider as well. Her trademark gown which made a huge fashion statement, well in Wonderland anyway and then there is the card costume for those a little more adventurous. The Queen Of Hearts had a mean personality to match her loud costume yet no one would dare make comment about her outfit.

The “off with their heads” cry sent fear through the hearts of her subjects and as a Halloween teaser, she is an ideal choice. If you like the color red then great. The Queen Of Hearts saw red most of the time in Alice In Wonderland but we’re talking costume color.

The accent is on fun and while you may be the loudest person at the party in terms of both vocally and visually, be sure to have fun with it. Let’s look at the two options for a Queen Of Hearts costume for Halloween.

Queen Of Hearts Costume

The skirt of your Queen Of Hearts costume for Halloween should be red, white, and black – and don’t forget the lace! You’ll need some extra lace and fabric to make the sleeves of the dress puffy with ruffles, as that is the style fit for any queen. You will also want to cut out fabric hearts – at least six – to sew or glue onto the skirt of the dress. If you have enough, you might want to affix some hearts to the bodice (probably four). You cannot forget the hearts.

In order to make your crown, you will need poster board, cardboard, or fun foam. Measure your head and cut the material so that it fits you perfectly. You will then need to cover it in glitter and plenty of hearts, since you are the Queen of Hearts. Make sure that you use the same glitter and materials for the hearts that you affix to your scepter as well.

Making Your Own Card Costume

The other version of the Queen Of Hearts costume for Halloween is a flat playing card outfit. Sometimes the queen is a card and other times she is a woman; it just depends on which version of Wonderland you like best. The playing card costume is easy to make – all you need is two large pieces of cardboard and a little drawing skill.

Make sure you connect the two pieces of board with heavy red ribbon or string, so that it fits over your head, covering your front and back. Decorate the boards to resemble the Queen of Hearts playing card. Make the scepter and crown as explained above.

You could get a large box from a moving or storage facility and assemble it, cut holes for your head and arms (leave the bottom open) and paint it to look like a card. Or you could cover the back of it with red wrapping paper and cover the front with white wrapping paper. Cut out a “Q” and hearts in red and stick them on the front, then cut out swirls and attach them to the back to make it look like a playing card. Get a deck of playing cards for reference.

Obviously buying a Halloween costume is the first thought on shopper’s minds this year but in many cases, with a little ingenuity, you could create your own.

A Princess Leia Adult costume for Halloween is a good challenge and the truth is, the original costume which attracted fans is really a simple piece of clothing which could quite easily be crafted by someone with a little knowledge with a needle and thread. Are you up to it. If not, don’t worry, there is no shortage of Princess Leia Halloween costume selections this year and it’s almost like the famous Star Wars royal has had yet another lease of life with fans.

The original look consisted of a long white gown, long sleeves and boots. But the unmistakable look is achieved through the hairpiece. Remember that. The bun like appearance which probably wouldn’t turn hair stylists on today but it was definitely the hair fashion trend of the future. If you are putting the costume together yourself then just be sure that the fabric is lightweight and flowing.

Princess Leia Adult costume for Halloween

If you are sewing your own dress, use extra material or white pillowcase for the hood. The dress Leia wore in the film had a high collar, so you could use a white turtleneck shirt under the dress. A pair of white go-go boots will do nicely.

You’ll need the belt to mimic the look she had in the movie, and to keep your dress in place. Ideally, you will use a silver and white belt but if you cannot locate or make one, use a black one. Get creative and use a strip of white material and affix silver jewelry or decorations to it.

For the infamous Princess Leia hair, you may want to get a long-haired wig and style it before you put it on. However, whether you do it with a wig or your real hair, the idea is the same. Part the hair down the middle and twist both sides into tight rolls that look like cinnamon buns. The buns should be on both sides of the head, over the ears, and rather large. Fasten them with plenty of bobby pins and clips.

If you don’t want to go with the traditional Princess Leia Adult costume for Halloween, you could choose her looks from any of the three films. When she was on Endor with the Ewoks, she dressed very sporty with a vest, pants, and boots. While she was a prisoner of Jabba the Hutt, she wore a metal bikini with long leather flaps in the front and back of the bottom. If you are dressing like Princess Leia this year, go ahead and get creative with your ensemble!

There is something creepy about the latest Joker played by Heath Ledger in The Dark Knight so much so, the look is going to be one of the most adopted themes this Halloween.

In fact, very rarely does Batman get upstaged after all, he is a super hero but the reality is, the Joker did exactly that in The Dark Knight despite being the villain. The role played by Ledger added a real twisted side to the Joker, something we never really saw before and the truth is, it suited his role perfectly.

But we’re here to tell you that’s not the only Joker Mask option for Halloween available to you. In fact, the look lends itself to many various forms given it’s cheeky nature as we display in this Joker walk of fame.

as we mentioned above, the Joker Halloween Mask doesn’t need to be based around Ledger’s character out of the Dark Knight. Jack Nicholson played a great Joker in the late 1980’s while the early version was owned by Caesar Romero. That long Joker face and wide mouth look is hard to forget. Romero was so good at his portrayal of the villain that it really wasn’t until Nicholson came along with his version that we started to see him in a different light.
