Two weeks ago, Melissa came to see me :) We went out for lunch at Famous Dave's and Mojo met us there! After we ate, Mel and I went to see "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire". Mojo (who watches "Charmed") didn't want to go see HP4 because of the subject matter. I never have and never will read the Harry Potter books.
I saw the first movie with Kristy way back when and now I feel obligated to see the rest of them for the sake of completeness. This movie was not the best of the four. It was mostly the Tri-Wizard tournament (with 4 wizards) and then some story at the end about the bad guy. Not very good.
After the movie, we went to K-Mart's closing sale and then we parted ways with Mel leaving me an aloe plant :)
I've seen "The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe" twice now. On St. Patty's day, I went out by myself for dinner and a movie. (How lame, right?) I saw Narnia at the $2 theater. I saw it again later with Mike and Darren. It was quite enjoyable and I didn't mind seeing it a second time.
I haven't read the book since sixth grade, so throughout the movie, I'd find myself surprised by scenes I had forgotten. I hope they make the other six books into a movie too. I won't wait as long to see those!
I didn't find "V For Vendetta" particularly entertaining. Mike, Darren and I saw it. They probably shouldn't have. It's pretty much all they've been talking about since we saw it. I wanted to leave as soon as the lights dimmed and the DC Comics logo showed up on the screen.
The movie's about politics and "good" terrorism. Not my cup of tea. Sure, there was some action, but it didn't make up for the dryness.
Who were the people interrogating Natalie Portman's character while V held her captive?

Yes, we had an excellent time when I visited! I'm so proud that you are taking such good care of your aloe plant! ;-)
I haven't read the Narnia books since about sixth grade either, so the movie was fun to see because I didn't know what would happen all the time.
Woot. Let's hang out again soon.

Oh, and you totally aren't lame for doing dinner and a movie by yourself. I eat dinner out at nice places by myself all the time! ;-)
