Lets get something out of the way. I love watching movies and there’s very little I do not dis-enjoy. This means I enjoy laughing till my gut hurts watching Superbad, being scared by The Exorcist, and mentally challenged by watching something like Michael Moore’s excellent Bowling for Columbine. (If you can get three movies more diverse, that you honestly enjoy, in the same breath please call me so we can go to the movies. I would love to talk with you. Odds are though you are already in my fold of regular movie going adventures)
Movie going is an experience that should be shared with friends, family, and complete strangers alike. The lights go down, images rush the screen, and begin to play with one another in perfect harmony. It’s the experience I enjoy more then anything. For example as much as I enjoyed The Hunger Games, I enjoyed cooking dinner with friends and then standing outside the theater for two hours waiting to get a seat for the midnight debut much more. The atmosphere of excitement, the conversations that ranged all over the board, and a pre movie dvd viewing of Dogma will forever never be forgotten. I still look back on that night and others like it with great enthusiasm. Each night may have a similar structure but no two are ever alike.
What I plan to do with the space here is to write about my movie going experiences, for better or worse. I will do my best to keep names anonymous and try even harder to entertain the reader.
