I Like To Movie It Movie It!

Movies were a major factor of my weekend (one each day!) and I enjoyed them all.

On Friday I went to Paul's house and watched "Get Smart" on DVD with him and his family. It was fun, action-packed and found many ways to stay true to the original show, which I loved to watch with my Dad as a child.
Favorite Line-
Max: Are you thinking what I'm thinking?
Chief: I don't know, are you thinking, "Holy __, holy __, a swordfish almost went through my head!"?

On Saturday I also saw a movie with Paul, this time in the theater. "Role Models", starring Paul Rudd and Sean William Scott. It was very crass, but if you can look past a lot of swearing and a little nudity, it bears a very sweet message... And a fun rock & roll motif.
Favorite Line (That was difficult for this movie, because I can't remember a lot of them, but I loved this generations-old pop culture allusion)-
Auggie: And I may look like a young Marvin Hamlisch... Who in the world is Marvin Hamlisch?
Danny: He wrote the music for "The Sting"
Wheeler: That's a great movie.

Then today I went with a bunch of the girls I work with to see Madagascar 2. None of us had seen Madagascar 1, but that didn't really limit our enjoyment. Sweet storyline, great graphics, and the penguins are hilarious.
Favorite Line:
King Julian (attempting to stop a baby mouse lemur from getting on the plane with him): Stop him! Stop! (no response) He's got scissors and hand cream! (Security tackles baby lemur).

It was a delightful, cinematastic weekend, made even better by the fact that with each passing day (and movie) my nasty cold was going away. Yay! :-)

P.S. I've finally given in to Christmas music. Certain songs I won't break out or seriously listen to until after Thanksgiving, but I'm listening to more and more as November goes by. Plus, Thanksgiving is late this year, meaning waiting until Black Friday for Christmas music is a longer wait than usual! I'm only human :-)
