The " funny" thing about movies .....
One of the reasons I wanted to start this blog was not to talk just about scrapbooking, but from the design of the blog (and if you read my bio)you gotta figure I LOVE movies! I love eveything about them. For some people it's reading that can transport them to different places and times. They can experience the wonders of different countries and exotic places. Well, that's one of the things movies does for me. I enjoy watching a GOOD movie over and over again. I love to pick up little things that I didn't catch the first time. I love to watch the acting and see how lost the actors become, that I cannot tell thay are ACTing!I planned on blogging alot about movies here, sharing my excitement and passion for performances that I found spectacular.
But, frankly there hasn't been much to rave about. Let's face it movies are expensive, who wants to waste their time? I amjust so dissappointed in what has been out there.
Today I was supposed to see a movie and we had the theatre wrong. So, my friend and I went home made popcorn, and popped in a movie I had rented that I hadn't watched yet. the movie... Step Brothers!
The movie case exclaims....." The funniest movie I've seen this year!" "Eternally funny... but, subly touching!"
This movie was CRAP! There I have said it, CRAP, Thank God I didn't waste movie theatre money on this junk!
Here's my Big problem with the description of funny movies latley...... Hillarious should mean EXTREMELY FUNNY! I would expect to laugh out loud from my gut! slap my knee and bend forward in my seat and stop my foot! That is Not what is happening to me. To me the funny movies are ones that I have just found on cable or on demand. Two of the funniest movies I have found in the last year... The Rocker and Just Friends. I recently saw Australia Reviews were so-so , but I went to see something that was reported to be visually appealing and epic like. Not so. The movie was so visually boring it put me to sleep. The entire first hour and a half didn't even need to be in the movie, that would have cut down the agony considerably. The movie couldn't decide if it wanted to be Peter Pan, Sophies Choice, Out of Africa, or The Wizard of Oz. Don't waste your time. Looking forward to the 25th of December hopefully they are just saving the best for last! Found these clips of the best movie moments, not all my favorites are on there, but these movies are all worth seeing. Gangs of New York is not for the weak stomach though, so beware or fast forward.
