This Year In Movies: January

This month I watched

Napoleon Dynamite- Me and my sister watch this about once a year. It cracks us up everytime!

Camp Rock- Actually better than I expected, everything was cute besides the oldest Jonas's hair, that was just distracting.

Sweet Land- Sweet movie!

The Wackness- This movie was awesome! I heard about it from a friend and just knew I had to see it. Definitely will be watching again!

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button-
Wow. This was like the greatness of two movies. I loved it. Just bought a book of F. Scott Fitzgerald stories that has the short story in it so I can read it as well. I'm surprised I had never read it seeing as The Great Gatsby is one of my favorite books!

Towelhead- Interesting. Never made up my mind about this one. Anyone else see it?

Hancock- Fun-ish.

My Best Friend's Girl- This was pretty funny!

Aa Ab Laut Chalen- Loved this one minus some ugly 90s fashions.

The Duchess- Ok, made me kind of angry but I think that was kind of the point.

The Promotion- Quirky, totally random cast of actors.

Tropic Thunder- Even randomer cast of actors and collaborators. Pretty stupid actually, not sure if that's a good stupid or a bad stupid, probably a bad stupid.

The Ultimate Gift- Sweet movie that made me a little teary eyed.

Strange Wilderness- Stupider than I could have imagined! :/

Question, how would you feel about possibly one actual movie review a week, would that interest you?

  1. I would love to see a regular movie review. I am a movie nut though that passion has taken a backseat to reading the past few months.

    Review the classics that some of these younguns don't know, Hughes stuff. You know, the Molly era lol

  2. Wow ... I can't believe how many of these I haven't seen! A movie review would be great. I also love movies and I really feel that books and movies are just different ways to do the same thing - explore lives that you don't lead.

    We just watched Hamlet 2. Have you seen that one?

  4. Oooh I'd love it if you talked about movies more. A lot of the ones you watched this month I've never even heard of, so that'd be great to hear about new ones.

  5. I'd like to see a movie review too. Old or new, doesn't matter. We're always looking for DVDs to add to our NetFlix queue.

  7. Thanks for the feedback everyone! I usually watch about 3ish movies via my Netflix subscription a week so it will be one of those. It could be anything from a new release to just a random movie! Or maybe even a tv show I watch on dvd! I'm really excited about this!

    Adele- I was going through an 80s spell about a month ago, I wish I was doing this one!

    Kristen M- No I haven't seen it but it's on my queue! How did you like it?

    Lenore- Oooh I want to see Revolutionary Road!

    Taren- Yay! I'm so glad you think so!

    Beth F- It will probably be something I watch via Netflix! I heart netflix!

    sharonanne- Sure, I could talk about the dvd covers!

  9. I'd love to see more movie reviews...I never know what to watch.

    I love Napolean Dynamite too. It's been playing in re-runs on E! and you can start anywhere in the middle of it and still be laughing within minutes. It's so random!

  10. Did you read Towelhead? I liked the book very much, but I don't know if I will be watching the movie as I have heard it was just so-so.

  11. You are a pop culture junkie! My whole family liked the Benjamin Button movie.

  13. Yay movies! I'd like to see them.

    I really want to see The Wackness still. And I thought Camp Rock was fun too.

  15. I just saw a promo for The Wackness - looks good. And I agree - Napolean Dynamite is a guaranteed laugh!

  16. A movie review a week would be great - then I wouldn't feel quite so much like I was blatantly ripping you off. =)

    I was really torn about Towelhead - honestly, it made me so uncomfortable, but there were moments that were very good. I'm interested in the book, also - isn't the book always better??

  17. Bookworm- I haven't seen it yet but definitely want to, will probably be on dvd when i see it!

    Kimberly Derting-Exactly, the whole movie is just great!

    Emily- I haven't read it yet but I have a copy, hopefully I'll like it or understand it more than the movie.

    bermudaonion- It was so so great!

    Keri Mikulski- Yay I'm glad you think so!

    Shooting Stars Mag- Can't wait to hear what you think of them!

    Michelle- I have random taste lol!

    Luanne- It was great!

    Elizabeth- Hahah! I agree with you about Towelhead it went back and forth to both extremes. Yeah I think for the most part the book is always better!
