Movies!
What movies has Betty watched over the summer so far? Well, lessee.
Journey From the Fall [2006]
I found out this was showing in the theaters in our city so I wanted to watch it because it was about the Vietnamese history. Then we found out, my dad had it on DVD all along, for a while now! Haha. He laughed at us for that one but told us it was good. So I watched it with my mom and sister and it was good but sad too. ;_; I learned a lot.
Shooter [2007]
I watched about half of this with my cousin and uncle. It was an okay movie. I guess I'm just not that interested in gun/shooting movies.
Ghost Rider [2007]
I also watched this one at my cousin's. It was a pretty good Marvel Comics movie that isn't as famous as the other superheroes. What really surprised me was the Carpenters was in the background music once! Superstar, haha. I was singing along.
Breach [2007]
I watched this one in Government class. I totally didn't get the ending and it was just one really weird movie. Insanely boring.
Narnia: The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe [2005]
I watched this one around my birthday. I guess I was just bored enough and decided I'd watch something from my dad's big 'ol case of DVDs. So basically, I sat and watched it by myself. It was an alright movie, one that I'd probably never watch twice.
TMNT: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles [2007]
Oh man, I was wanting to watch this one for the longest because I love the Ninja Turtles. So my friend gave me a copy for my birthday party and we watched it. Let me just tell you, I was really disappointed. I thought it'd be great like the other Ninja Turtle movies but this movie was completely in CG: even the people were CG-fied. T_T I got bored halfway through the movie. I think the only part I thought was funny was when everytime one of the turtles points at something, it'd look like they were giving the middle finger (they really were). Haha. I don't think they intended it to be funny in that way though.
Transformers [2007]
I really loved this movie! I'm so glad I got to see it with my family. It was a lot better than I thought it would be. It was hilarious too.
Premonition [2007]
This is one I wanted to see ever since I saw the preview on TV. My dad got a copy and we watched it together with my mom. It was pretty good and interesting but the ending was disappointing. D= It wasn't what we wanted to happen. So because of that, I probably wouldn't watch that one again either.
I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry [2007]
Just saw this one in the theater yesterday. It's so hilarious. It was fun to watch with my friends too. Haha.
Letters From Iwo Jima [2006]
This one I waited more than a week just to rent it. I'm so so glad we eventually did. I watched this one last night after I came home from watching Chuck and Larry first by myself. Ah~, it was so good and Nino is such a great actor. :3 My dad comes home at 2:30 AM and I told him I'd watch again with him. It wasn't until 4 that we started to watch so we didn't sleep until 6AM. While we were watching my dad explained a lot about the planes and the history of WWII. It was great, he was a like an encyclopedia. "Oh, that's a JAP 0 plane -- JAP is for Japanese." XD I was like, "Yeah, I know Dad." But anyways, while I was watching I was praying for Nino. "Don't die yet, don't die Saigo! Your name means last/final. You better be last to die." He was so lucky so many times. Haha. One day I'll buy the DVD. One day.
I can't remember if I watched any other movies during the summer. Now recalling all of these movies, I watched more than I thought. o_o
