Re-reading The Hunger Games

I am just starting to re-read The Hunger Games, getting ready for the movie in a couple of weeks. I can't wait to see it! My friend B invited me to go with her and when I told Scott he said I couldn't go without him. Lame. I'm glad he likes it so much, but sometimes a girl just wants to hang with another girl. Oh well. It will still be fun, since it will now be a double date instead.

I couldn't find our copy of the book anywhere since more than 50% of our stuff is in boxes in the basement right now, as we are house sitting for my in-laws. So I got on the hold list for our library last week and ended up in line as number 177! I thought I'd be lucky to read it before the next movie comes out, but it only took a week to get to the top of the list! This copy has obviously been devoured. Pages are falling out, and it looks like it's been at the bottom of a 6th graders backpack for 9 months. Not that it bothers me much. I'll still devour the book myself (once more), and douse my hands in purel as I do.

BTW, have you guys seen the movie trailer yet? It is so intense! It makes my heart race and my eyes leak some sort of salty substance...

You should check it out. You know where I'll be on March 12th!

Exit Through The Gift Shop (239:365)

Scott convinced me to watch this movie (he muted the 4 bad words for me) and I am glad he did!

If you have any interest at all in art, or more specifically, in street art, this movie is for you. Enjoy it, then talk to me about it. The Art History part of my brain was reawakened and rejuvenated.

Here is a link to a good review from EW magazine.

Movie Night (203:365)

Another $5 girls night movie night tonight! 

Heather, Julie and I went to The Green Hornet.

Yeah, it's not exactly a "girlie" movie but I'm not exactly a girlie girl.

The action was great, there were a lot of funny scenes, and Michel Gondry did the best he could with what he had - meaning, Seth Rogan left a lot to be desired, as usual.

Rogan did have a few good moments, however, for the most part, Jay Chou, the sidekick, was the best part of the movie.

I give it a 3 1/2 out of 5 stars, because Rogan was mostly lame.

Goose's First Movie in the Theater (155:365)

Today we tried something new.

All four of us went to a movie in the theater.

I was a little bit worried about how well Goose would do, but she's a snuggler, so she did very well considering her age. Dee is the one that ran around the theater. She was on her seat edge for the first half, then slowly her patience ran out and she ran off.

Overall it was a good experience and we all enjoyed Tangled. 

Even Scott. 

He laughed it up!

We'll have to try it again soon!
