Book or Movie First?

Ever since I was in grade school and learned to read, I’ve loved to read. I read books all the time, from the classics to those nasty romance novels that are good for a quick read on the bus or while baking on a beach lounge chair.

The Twilight books and movies caused a dilemma for me. Should I read the book first or watch the movie first? I wanted to maximize my reading or viewing enjoyment and not be disappointed with the second one.

Any suggestions from someone who has already done both as to whether I should read the book or watch the movie first?

Movie Night

Tonight I wanted to watch a movie and just chill out, but I couldn’t decide what to watch. I have a good collection of DVDs with a variety of genres, but nothing sounded appealing. So I turned to the On Demand listings and scrolled through the listing of free movies. They have an oldie but goodie on the list, a movie starring Cher and Wynonna Ryder called, “Mermaids.” So I think that’s what It will be for me tonight. Mermaids and popcorn.

Dinner and a movie

So happy. Last night we went out for dinner and a movie. We ate at one of my favorite places called Joes Crab Shack. I love seafood and this place has the absolute best there is in town. I had the Samuel Adams Steampot and boy was it delicious ! We hadn’t been there in so long, I was overjoyed when we pulled in. I didn’t know where we were going until we got there. My honey is so sweet. He knew exactly what I was going to love and made sure we go it. Our movie was really good as well, and we came home to curl up on the couch for a little while before bed. Probably shouldn’t have watched the news though.

A little depressed

I don’t know what is wrong with my today. I just can’t seem to get out of this funk. Life has been a bit difficult lately, but I am usually not one to become morose over it. I think it is time to snap myself out of this and need a distraction to do it. I think I will take the kids to a movie this afternoon. Actually it will be early evening, but we can go for pizza and a movie. That will make them very happy. I hope they don’t have a lot of homework to do. We shall see.

Movie tonight

I need a break. I am going to go see a movie with the girls tonight. We will probably go out to eat as well, but the plans are still semi up in the air. I hope we go to the Outback Steak house. I am so in the mood for a bloomin’ onion and some shrimp on the barby. I haven’t been there in so long and when I saw a commercial for it last night on TV, I have been craving it ever since. I plan on pigging out if we get to go eat. I wonder what movie we will see though? I am not even sure what is playing right now. I guess I will find out when we get there.

Snow White and the Huntsman

I went to see this movie and absolutely loved it. I am going to buy it as soon as it comes out on DVD. There were a lot of Snow White movies out this year, but this is the only one that remotely interested me.

It was so intense and the characters had some really deep issues. Chris Hemsworth (the huntsman) is the new Hollywood hunk that all the girls are drooling over. I totally recommend this movie to you ladies, you will love it.

Movie matinee

I think I am going to take in a matinee this afternoon. I want to see Resident Evil:Retribution. I am going by myself, as most of my friends don’t really like movies like that. I don’t mind though, I enjoy going to the movies alone. Afterwards I can walk around the mall and do a little shopping without having anyone rush me. I really hate to be rushed.
