I didn't see Avatar, (3-D movies make me barf), and I have never read one word of any sort of Vampire Trash. Sorry Mom, I just think it's for losers. Yeah, I see movie trailers and think, "Man, that's looks like a kick ass movie!" But if you wait long enough, you'll forget about it, and then one day... It's on HBO! Awesome. The are only TWO forms of paying for movies that I agree with.
1. Alamo Drafthouse. We don't have this is Woodrow Compton, Texas. I am still lovin' it like a tourist, as I am with most of the things in Austin. I keep tellin my Dad that if he wants to make millions, he should open an Alamo Drafthouse right next to Texas Tech University.
2. RED BOX. This fool.... wow! Mad props to you. You have a box at every Walgreen's and McDonalds in the laziest, most movie-watching country EVER! RedBox passed Blockbuster in sales by 2007! It's the easiest way to rent a movie, and not get screwed into all sorts of debt.
3. Even though I said two, I just thought of another one. I'll have to admit that there have been a few times in my life where I couldn't find ANYTHING on the television, and I just couldn't help but to buy a movie for $4.99. Atleast you can't risk getting late fees, and you can record it!
Okay, this is not even what I wanted this to be about when I started writing about movies today. What I wanted to talk about was chick flicks. I love a good chick flick! Unfortunately, I have a low tolerance for emotional scenes, and sometimes it just feels good to just cry over a sad love story! When I imagine going to see one, I think of going with my mom, or girlfriends. NOT with a boy! I saw something today about a girl MAKING her boyfriend go see a sappy tear-jerker about a boy.... and a girl.... and they were separated by war.... and they wrote letters.... and you know the rest. What MAN wants to see that!?! None of them! Don't get me wrong, props to you for being able to get him to agree to it, he must really like you. Barf. You may be doing it as some sort of punishment, or to prove a point, and if that's the case, even more props! But me, personally, wouldn't really have interest in a guy who watched chick-flicks. I am not a fan of pansies, and I think that 8 hours a day of ESPN is sexy. You have to be careful that you don't let them fall asleep with Sports Center on though, because it runs on a 30 minute repeat-loop, and it could have some adverse effects on the brain. The moral of the story is, men should not watch chick-flicks. Stand up for yourselves, just say no.
