I've actually had some time to relax and rented a few movies over the last week or so. First up was 'The Mist'. Classic scary movie with a totally unexpected ending. Definitely worth the rental. Tonight I watched 'Cloverfield'. Two for two with my selections. Very good movie, but then again I've always loved disaster/monster movies.
Funny, having kids I've forgotten what it's like to see an adult film (not that kind) in a theater. In fact, I can't even remember the last non-animated movie I saw on the big screen. I think it was King Kong a couple years back when I was out in Long Beach. Oh well, that's all gonna change when Iron Man comes out. The kid in me is really psyched for this one.
The only thing I hate about going to the movies nowdays, aside from the fact I need to take out a loan to pay for it, is that the movies NEVER, I mean NEVER, seem to be in frame for focused correctly. Now I can complain about that having managed a theater and been a projectionist in my younger days. How hard is it to look out of the booth and see if the picture is centered? And don't get me started on focusing. For any of you who work in a theater and are in charge of this stuff, here's a hint...focus the film when it's showing white letters on a black background...it's much easier to see the edges on text rather than on a scene itself. Enough of my rant.
Anyway, thanks for reading.
