movies!!

one of the perks of having loads of free time is that i can go see all the movies i want during the day when the theater is less than crowded. even when it's a new movie and i get there just as the previews are starting. i love that! i've seen 3 movies in the last couple of weeks: harry potter, julie and julia, and time traveler's wife.

1. harry potter: loved. it was so good. i enjoyed every minute and i need to reread the book b/c i read it so long ago.

2. julie and julia: so much fun! you all already know how much i love to cook, but i thought this story was so well told. and the love story part was all so warm and fuzzy and gooey and sentimental and where the f do i find one of those guys?! i'm also wondering how tall julia and her sister were. i bet my height. just back then everyone was shorter... i'll have to look that up. anyways, it was a lot of fun. now i think i'd like to read her book.

3. time traveler's wife: i read this book in about 2.4 seconds - i loved loved loved it. and i want to reread it again b/c i loved it so much the first time. anyways, i thought the movie was great. was it as good as the book? no - they never are... but it was still a very good representation of the book. and i loved rachel mcadams and eric bana in it. i couldn't have pictured better people to portray those two characters. now... again... where's my epic love story. hmmmm... in the meantime, i'll live in this fantasy world b/c it was such a good movie. and when you go see it, bring loads of kleenex. you'll need it. i balled my eyes out!! and i knew the ending b/c i'd read the book!
