My Movie Habits

I actually go to the movies. I check out the Macomb Mall first because it is cheaper. I went to see Stardust recently. Jennifer and her friend stayed over night and we went to the dollar store picked out some candy and brought into the theater. It was good movie. It empowered women because the Star (A woman ) shined and destroyed the dark castle. It was based on a book.

I also saw No Reservations. It started out sad, but it was love story. It was about two chefs. A famous and well know chef had to take off a couple weeks to take care of things. Her sister dies and she has to make many arrangements and adopt her sister's daughter. While she is away she is replace by this guy chef who makes the staff laughs and he sings and he enjoys food. He eats with the staff where she doesn't socialize with her assistants, but he does and he has a good time being there. It was a real cute movie. Not my daughter's type of movie, so I dragged my husband.

I also saw Music and Lyrics and bought the sound track. Everyone in my family loved that picture and we all loved the music in it. So we bought the sound track. My daughter bought the movie as a present for on of her friends. I do not know if we have the movie or not.

I have the chocolate soundtrack. I do not know if I have that movie either. I do buy some movies just cannot remember which ones they are. I do have League of Their Own.

I have all the Star Trek Movies, and all the Star Wars Movies, just do not know if we picked up any recent movies. I have the Amadeus movie and sound track. The sound track is on a vinyl record. We found all our vinyl records and we are listening to them. I have Jesus Christ Superstar, Godspell, Cats and the Jazz Singer by Neil Diamond.

I mainly have exercise DVDs. I use to have VHS my husband changed the format and put all VHS on DVD, and because of that change I am not sure what we have anymore.

Our collection is pretty extensive. I would have to go down the basement and get the entire collection of movies that I own.

My first choice is actually going to the movies. Especially, when I am out of school. It is fun. It is like Yeah, I am free. NO MORE HOMEWORK, and buy a large soda and popcorn because they are refillable.

Some of the movies I get for gifts, or garage sales you can pick them up for a $1.00. We lost some of our income so we have to bargain hunt when we can. It is no longer going to FYE and picking out a movie and purchasing it. If I find it at rummage sale or at thrift store and if it is cheap enough, I will buy it. Sometimes the Main Macomb Library sells them and we get them that way. I use to rent the movies, I do not even remember when the last time I rented a movie was. TBS plays some good movies and we sit in front of the television on Friday nights and watch the PBS movie classics, but that is basically it.

The Macomb Mall is so much cheaper and it certainly more fun to have a night out than stay at home and watch an old rerun. For now the balcony is closed. Everyone have a nice night
