Movie Watching Indulgence

Well, it has been days since I've treated myself to watching numerous movies and setting aside my goal to finish my blog not later than our baby's big day. Hmmm.... let me think..... I have, just more than a month to finish it.... and here I am again, blogging about other things..... well, I think I just can't let this pass.

If I remember it right, I think I had started my movie-watching indulgence last Friday night. I had started with Burlesque starring Cristina Aguillera. The movie was just like Moulin Rouge except that the former has a better story. I find Cristina's acting O.A. but I love his love-interest partner there. While the movie was on-going, the back of mind was saying, "crap! I'm wasting my time!". And as if somebody has heard me, the movie stopped in the middle part. I realized that I was watching a CD copy only and that the downloaded movie wasn't complete. The time was already 11PM and I could just turn off my laptop to sleep but I somehow felt compelled to finish it even though the ending of the movie was too predictable but I don't know, I just finished it. How? well.... the beauty of internet and the Google search engine. I foundnd sites that allowed the movie to be played through internet streaming. So that was it, I finished it! However, still I regretted wasting my time watching it. Crazy me, huh?

I wasn't able to continue my indulgence momentum the following night as my baby didn't allow me to do so. So I had it on the afternoon of the following day. I watched.... hhmmm...... I forgot....wait for a sec...oh yeah! I remember it now. Just like the movie is unforgettable, no wonder I find it hard to remember now. I watched The Last Song movie of Miley Cyrus. Yikes! I don't like her! I don't like watching her crooked teeth (oooppsss!!! heheheh sorry!!!). I don't like watching her trying to act as a tough teen. She came out trying too hard to act.  However, the movie made me feel as a teen again.. hahahahha!!!! I miss those times!!!

That same night, since my baby slept earlier than usual, I was able to watch Eat Pray and Love by Julia Roberts. The movie run approximately 2hours which just made me sleep late, again! It was just okay. I think the movie fits for those established single women who are at a loss of their track. Maybe this movie will enlighten them. It's a simple, complicated thinking movie. It opens you to a world of a person who has it's unique complex problem when on the other side of the world there are just people who simply are having problems of transversing their everyday lives and of having difficulty making their ends meet. It just made you realize that everyone has it's own purpose on this world, that nobody's perfect and that every person has its own puzzle to solve.

Last night and I hope that was the end of my indulgence, I watched Remember Me of Robert Pattinson. I guess, I have made a good choice of choosing that movie as a closing of  my movie-watching spree because I was moved by it. I was kind of expecting a light-romantic-drama movie considering Rob is there but I was wrong. The story's conflicts are deep and I have to say that Rob did a good job in acting his role. I conclude that the movie is nice. Oh, by the way! the way Robert acted his drinking of the beer and carrying his cigarette smoking, I kinda have a feeling that he's a smoker in real life? because he seems to act it naturally. Anyways, that was it my movie-watching spree.
