On Thursday night Ashlee and I went to the movies and saw
Love and Other Drugs. It was a great movie starring Jake
Gyllenhaal and Anne Hathaway and one I would definitely recommend! The film is rated R for a reason (fair amount of nudity) so be sure to leave the kiddos at home! The best part of the night, other than watching Jake and Anne on screen together, was seeing all the coming attractions.
A bit of background here: I am the type of person that looks forward to the previews in the theaters. J teases me about this but I hate being late to movies and missing the previews. If a showing has weak previews (only a few or of movies that have been out for a while) I leave a little disappointed. I know I could watch as many previews as I want online, but there is something about being in a dark theater with my soda and popcorn watching these previews unfold on screen that I just love.
But I digress. We saw several very good previews while we were at the show, including Black Swan and The Fighter. The lobby also had posters for several movies I had previously seen previews for: True Grit and The King's Speech.
Looking at the posters after the film, I realized something. This might be the year I watch all the films nominated by the Academy Awards for Best Picture because for the first time in a long time, I want to see them all. Usually there are one or two movies nominated that I have no interest in seeing, but so far all the films being discussed for Oscar nods look amazing! Oh, and if I can pull this off, I will be able to cross off number127 off my list!
What is on your must-see list this holiday season?
I am a dance teacher and I'm just dying to see Black Swan!!!
ReplyDeleteAshly, it looks creepy and like I might not get a good night sleep after I see it, but oh so good!
