Movie MONDAY

Monday, February 6th, 2012 | Movie Monday, Sexy Eye Candy | No Comments

There are two movies coming out this week that I’m dying to see…Journey 2: The Mysterious Island and Safe House.

And more important…both movies have some  hunkaliciousness in both of them. There is nothing like superior man eye-candy when you go to the movies. You can sit there in the dark next to your spouse/significant other and/or kids and they won’t see you foaming at the mouth. HA! Well…maybe that’s just me. 

If you happen to go see them, make sure you drop back by and let me know how you liked them.

Peace, love and sex!

Movie Day MONDAY

Tuesday, January 17th, 2012 | Movie Monday | 2 Comments

There’s is just nothing good out there that I want to see. The last movie I saw…I guess a couple of weeks ago, was Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocal and it was excellent! I really enjoyed. I love a good action flick. Tom Cruise was back in Ethan Hunt rare form. There are a couple of movies that I want to see this month, One For The Money and Man on a Ledge. They both come out on the same Friday though, so I’ll have to decide which one I want to see first.

A movie that I’m truly truly anticipating is The Hunger Games. I absolutely loved reading that series and can’t wait to see how they play it out on the big screen. I for one know that it won’t be exactly like the movie, there are some things you just can’t put in film. My only expectation is that I expect it to be awesome!!!

What about you? Are you a movie buff? Any movies you’re looking forward to seeing this year?

Peace, love and sex!

Movie MONDAY!

Happy Monday everyone!

Do you ever watch movies over and over again and still cry or get emotional…even after you’ve seen them over and over again? Yeah…I know I just repeated myself…but still…

I’m that way with movies. It drives my husband crazy that I do it and it’s especially the movies he likes to label “chick flicks.” I think I’ve watched August Rush, The Lake House, Maid In  Manhattan, and a lot more a gazillion times and still get emotional and fall in love with the characters all over again. I guess that’s why I’m a romance writer…who knows? I’m a sucker for happily ever after!

The movie I’ve watched over and over and over again this weekend is Letters To Juliet with Amanda Seyfried and Vanessa Redgrave.

I love this movie! I think I watched it 3 times this weekend on cable. It’s about a girl who goes to Italy on vacation with her fiancé and she ends up in the middle of a square watching women leave notes on this wall. What she learns is that the women who leave the letters are writing to Juliet…Romeo’s Juliet. I know…cool right! And not only do they write to Juliet, there are a group of women who actually “answer” the letters. They are the Secretaries of Juliet.  She meets these women and one day when she’s with them, finds a letter stuck behind one of the bricks and when she reads it, she’s compelled to answer the letter back. What happens next is not only one great love story but TWO great love stories. This is where Vanessa Redgrave comes in. And what I also find really cool about this story is that Vanessa’s love interest in this movie is actually her real life significant other. (I found this out after looking the movie and the actors up on IMDb. If you want to know anything about movies and movie stars…you have to download this app…it’s free…but I digress…)Vanessa Redgrave and Franco Nero have been together since 1967 when they met on another movie set. 1967! Cool again, right? So, if you’ve never seen this movie, you need to watch it. I guarantee you’ll love it. Amanda’s love interest in the movie, Christopher Egan is such a cutie and I love his accent!

Peace, love and sex…

Movie MONDAY

Monday, November 7th, 2011 | Movie Monday | No Comments

I had a glorious 4-day weekend because of “teacher” conferences and due to the fact I have all my professional development hours…I was able to stay at home and enjoy my family…even coerced the hubby to take off on Friday. Although I did get a wee-bit sick on Saturday and Sunday, I still enjoyed those few days off.

Which means of course, I indulged in some movie watching! We are a movie watching famiy at the James house! Friday, we went to see Tower Heist.

If you want “total” escapism…this is the movie for you. If you want to “laugh”…this is the movie for you. If you want to see “good prosper over evil”…this is the movie for you!! Seriously! It was soooo funny. I haven’t checked yet to see how it did at the box office, but the entire family truly enjoyed this movie! Go Eddie and Ben!!

I also caught up on a DVD that we purchased a couple of weeks ago. The hubby and I watched Crazy, Stupid, Love on Sunday.

Great movie! The part I most wanted to see was when Steve Caroll fell out of the car after his wife told him that she’d slept with someone else. That part was soooo funny! This story is about soul mates, finding true love, AND loss. Very poignant and moving. Made me want to make sure I keep the “spark” in my relationship with the hubby so we never go through what the couple in this story went through. So, if you want a great falling in and out and back in again love story…this is it! Go rent it or go buy it! It’ll be worth the $.

Peace, love and sex!
