Yesterday I watched three movies. Which is quite unusual for me, but I've been watching movies more and more lately. What were the three movies you ask? Oh...you didn't ask? Too bad.
First I watched Letters to Juliet. Now it's actually not that great of a movie but I'm a sucker for love stories and Amanda Seyfried. She's amazing. Anyway (spoiler alert) girl is engaged to a rude italian man who never listens blahblahblah. Clearly it's not going to work out between them. Clearly. So they go to Italy (for a business trip) and they both do there separate things. Long story short she falls in love with a gorgeous British guy while they search for his grandmother's long lost love. They don't tell there true feelings, she goes home, goes back for a wedding BUT WAIT. He is back with his love Penelope from forever ago...only there's two Penelopes and the one at the wedding is really his cousin not his ex. -___________- That really pissed me off. Two Penelopes. Ugh. Lame.
From there I watched Toy Story 3. Pixar really outdid themselves with this one. The first time I watched this was in theaters with Mary and Nik on.....dundundun GRADUATION DAY. Now if you've ever seen this movie you could just predict what happened to us.. best friends + Toy Story 3 + graduation day = MAJOR CRYFEST. MAJOR. Anyway it's a fantastic movie and everyone should watch it. It brings back amazing childhood memories and has the best message about friendship. So even after watching it the second time a bawled my eyes out. My younger sister said she had "tears in her eyes" but didn't cry. I'll make her watch it after she graduates...she'll cry..just wait.
Then I re-watched one of my favorite movies. Whip It. I freaking love this move. If I'm not including Harry Potter it's definitely top five. It's so empowering and kick ass that I wish I did roller derby. Hah I was actually asked to join a while ago after leaving Hot Topic. I wish I did it...if only I could skate...maybe lol. Ellen Page is the best in anything she does. She's so talented and I'd probably watch anything she's in. This movie is about passion and doing whatever the fuck you want. I wish I was like that. Getting away from the norm would be nice. Like Toy Story teamwork is also a major theme. (lol theme? I'm not writing a paper here...) And I LOVE that. It reminds me of how I can always rely on my friends for anything.
I feel like I watched another movie but I honestly can't remember.Right now I'm watching The Boy in the Striped Pajamas. The first time I watched this was with my sisters. We are kind of Holocaust movie junkies. One night we had a whole marathon. I miss those days. This movie is terribly sad but I love it. Again FRIENDSHIP. Wow sentimental here.
I wish movies were like real life...(well not the last one..).
THE WEAPON WE HAVE IS LOVE.
