Movies


I finally saw Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Mans Chest, on Sunday. Now I can confirm that this movie is Excellent! I highly recommend seeing it if you haven't already, or see it again if you have. Johnny Depp looks so hot as a pirate! I know for sure that there is going to be a third movie, in which Keith Richards is going to make a cameo appearance as Jack Sparrow's Dad!

There are other movies that I still want to see, but with ticket prices these days, I usually have to wait until they go to the dollar theater, when I have money to spend, or rent them. I'm also including the genres of movies I like and dislike too.

Movies I want to see:
  • Nacho Libre-I heard if you loved Napoleon Dynamite, you'll love this!
  • Talladega Nights-Will Ferrell's movies are hilarious!
  • The Devil Wears Prada-This looks like a good one.
  • You, Me, and Dupree-Owen Wilson's funny too! Notice a pattern?
  • Comedies-can you tell by my list above? I'll laugh at the stupid little things in them.
  • Action movies-I'm a little picky about these though, it has to have a good plot, not just eye candy.
  • Dramas-movies are the place for that, and not in my life.
  • Music-from biographies to Rock Operas, if it relates to music, I will see it.

Then there's movies I don't want to see:

  • Little Man-My best friend wants to see this and she's going to have to drag me along! This movie looks stupid!
  • The Lake House-This movie looks to damn confusing! Two people who fall in love with each other live 2 years apart? Why doesn' t the one who lives two years ahead wait for the other to catch up with time? My head hurts trying to figure it out!
  • Waist Deep-Guy gets out of prison, wants out of the gangsta life, then daughter gets kidnapped, guy has to get back in to get out. Blah! Blah! Blah! Like the ending isn't hard to figure out!
  • Chick flicks-a few are ok, but I'm the girl that would take my date to an action movie!

Movies I'll end up seeing when my sister and her friends rent them at Blockbuster:

  • The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift-I have never seen any of the three in theaters. All three movies have a lot in common: underground street racing, tricked out rides, and a bunch of hoochies.
  • Horror movies-It takes a lot of guts (no pun intended) to see a horror movie in theaters. I have a weak stomach when it comes to seeing blood and gore, especially if it looks painful.
  • Tearjerkers-Don't get me wrong, most of em are good movies, I just hate when I start crying cause I can cry a waterfall!

Look what my post turned into! It was intended to be just a review of "Pirates" and now it's turned into a list of what movies I like and dislike. At least it's a differant topic from my usual posts!

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Mans Chest: good film, I saw it the other day very enjoyable. I'm watching Superman tonight, is that classed as an Action movie?

I haven't even seen the first Pirates of the Caribbean film!! When the first one came out I wanted to see it but I ended up watching a horror film instead; that's what you get for going to the cinema with three guy friends I suppose! :P

I agree about The Lake House, my head hurt just watching the trailer for it!

Interesting post, Chick! Can't write much because my battery's about to expire on my laptop, but just to say hello and keep it up. Like this one! BTW, I saw on Sin's post that it's 108 degrees your side. WOW!!! That's hot!

The news about Keith Richards is really funny, and I hope true, because (although I've only seen clips) Depp gives the best Keith Richards impersonation I've ever seen in this movie.
