Saturday Snippet

Hello everyone!

So getting back into the swing of things here after vacation, I really couldn't help myself and drove one town over to a big shopping center where I could indulge in browsing through a LOT of movie DVDs. I'm a little bit of a hoarder in these cases, really, but I'm also conscious of the fact that spending big money on this stuff won't win me any favours anywhere (but let's not talk about The Hobbit EEs, kay? Kay).

What I happened to stumble upon was a bit of a sale where you can pretty much purchase between five or six DVDs without spending too much money, or doing the math, you can get these for a price of one and a half of the usual, which is pretty nifty for someone like me.

You can see I splurged a bit, because really, handsome men deserve to be watched on the big screen. Also, the Immortals DVD was the last one, so lucky me!

Additionally, I also got the King's Speech and Draft Day, and the Jason Statham movie is titled Blitz.

Talkie Tuesday: Draft Day

Hello everyone!

So a (long) while back, I saw the trailer for Draft Day, completely by accident, and decided I really needed to see this movie. One, it has Kevin Costner in it, two, there are some other familiar faces running around, three, it's football, and four - Kevin Costner. Enough said?

I've been a fan of Mr. Costner's for a while now, I can't even remember for how long, and although I know he obviously filmed before I saw any of his movies, it's a tie between whether I've seen the Bodyguard or The Prince of Thieves first. I'm fairly sure The Postman came afterwards at some point when there was nothing else to watch on TV and I saw the actor's face and decided I would just sit through it even though it didn't look promising (at the start). So, seeing him in the trailer for this kind of movie, it was a no-brainer that I would want to see it even if it did take me a long, long time to actually sit down and do it.
