Movie Weekend

We are all film buffs in my house and this past weekend was my husband's birthday. So we went to the movies. Friday night, we saw "300". We wanted to see it in IMAX format, but the tickets were all sold out. What I saw, (I fell asleep through parts of it because it was just too late at night) was pretty good. The queen killed the "sucka" that raped her and that was sweet! The king died and that was not! Sorry if I ruined it for anyone planning on seeing it but haven't as of yet done so. Saturday night, we went to see "RENO 911: MAMI". Both my husband and son have a sick sense of humor. And sometimes, I'm right along with them and sometimes, I'm just along for the ride. We all knew "RENO..." was just going to be utterly stupid; no thought-provoking value, just plain stupid!

I try not to get to deep where entertainment media is concerned. I go to the movies for entertainment. I've walked out of some movies and been outrageously entertained by others. Always wanted to be an actress, myself. Haven't given up on that one, yet. I find cinema fascinating, which is one reason why I probably would rather watch than read.

Well, that was my weekend. I'm going to bed now. Reality is setting in -GEPA tomorrow; gotta get up early.

Hey,
I can see you as an actress.... You definitely have the personality to draw people to you! It's never too late so don't give up... Hey, you never know...

I'm a movie buff too.... My "beau" is totally into graphic novels and 300 comes from the Frank Miller graphic novel...we want to see it on IMAX this weekend. It's not my type of movie but he generally makes good movie pics, so I'll try it. Plus...we're going to Palisades Park Mall to see it... I need some shopping therapy after this week of standardized tests and parent/teacher conferences....
