Super Saturday

This is my birthday weekend, so I decided to go to the movies today with my younger sister Chandra since she was off work. (She is the best movie buddy ever!) They are so many good movies out right now, so I decided to see a triple feature. That's right, three movies! I feel sort of silly in a way since I spent more than six hours at the theater watching movies today, but I just enjoy it so much. I can't tell you how many hours I've spent at the theater in my life when you factor in all the movies I've seen, in addition to all the hours I spent working at the theater back in the glory days before my accident. (I worked at the theater at least 25–35 hours a week for three and half years.)


The first movie we saw was Green Lantern with Ryan Reynolds (absolute hunk!). Next we saw X-Men First Class which was my favorite movie of the three we saw today. It's really good. As I've said before, I love comic book movies, so these two were right up my alley. Finally, we watched Super 8. This was a disappointment and I kept nodding off in it which was okay since I wasn't really into it. Sci-fi and alien movies really aren't my cup of tea, but I didn't know that's what this movie was about before I saw it. Plus there was quite a bit of language in it. In my opinion language just spoils movies and I cringe every time I hear a bad word, or when the Lord's name is taken in vain.

Two superhero movies + one called Super 8 = a super Saturday at the movies!

  1. my dad LOVES going to the movies. He would be in movie heaven to see 3 in a row. I know he has gone, BY HIMSELF, to see 2 movies in a row. But I don't think he has done 3 (although I am pretty sure he would love it)
