Greetings Blogsters,
To the best of my knowledge I made it through grocery shopping Friday without adding to anyone's cart but ours:)
Saturday night was movie and pizza night. Since last weekend's movie night was intense we went to the opposite end of the spectrum and rented The Age of Aadaline and Cinderella. I really had problems getting into Adaline. Once Harrison Ford came into it, the plot picked up. It was an interesting premise, but I would have liked to have seen them do more with it.
Cinderella was sweet. It exemplified all the awe of fairy tales. I could see this film leaving children dazzled. Did you see either film? What's your take?
Oh yeah, and the pizza was good. grin.
Ghost For Sale is released tomorrow.......
Congratulations on your release tomorrow. Woo Hoo and happy dances.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, EC:)
Deleteit was the other way around for me :) I lurved ADELINE and my dearest Blake Lively, but CINDERELLA kinda left me empty and I though the lead actress ain't pretty enough to be Cinders... they should've put Holly Grainger who played one of her sisters to play Cinderella, she's gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteI thought she fit the part of Cinderella. To me she radiated the 'goodness' of the character.
DeleteAdaline: I'm probably the only person in the universe that just didn't warm up to BL in that role.
Mentioned Ghost For Sale in my post today!
ReplyDeleteHaven't seen either film.
Actually, you should have fun with putting groceries in other peoples' carts.
Thanks, Alex. Appreciate it.
DeleteGood point about the carts. Heh heh.
Haven't seen either movie, but they both look good.
ReplyDeleteHi CJ, If you see them. Let me know what you think.
Deletewe had hawaiian pizza on friday (ham & pineapple). but no movies; it's still baseball season here. no movies til after baseball season ends.
ReplyDeleteI hear ya. I don't follow it. But the hubby and the boy are die hard Cub fans.
DeleteThat woman in Adaline is pretty...can't remember her name but she was from that teen show I tried to watch but couldn't get into. Gossip Girl? She's mesmerizing to watch, though. Is that the movie where she didn't age?
ReplyDeleteThat's the one.
DeleteHappy Monday, Steph.
Haven't seen either one at my sea, the whole fairy tale to life thing is getting old for me.
ReplyDeleteI understand. I like some more than others.
DeleteHope you've had a good one, Pat.
Good morning, dear Sandra!
ReplyDeleteThe Age of Adaline is a fascinating concept. I'm sure we all wish we could age that gracefully, meaning not aging another day. It's interesting to speculate how that would play out. Coincidentally, over the weekend, Mrs. Shady and I watched a documentary about Walt Disney and enjoyed it very much.
Have a wonderful week, dear friend Sandra!
I bet that was a good documentary. He was a visionary.
DeleteHope you have a great week too, Shady.
I really liked Cinderella, but I haven't seen the other yet. We were going to see it in theaters but missed it. My wife really likes Blake Lively
ReplyDeleteI imagine Cinderella would have been magical on the big screen.
DeleteI haven't seen The Age of Aadaline or Cinderella but I would like to see both.
ReplyDeleteHi Chrys:)
DeleteCinderella stayed true to the fairy tale.
Sounds like a fun evening, I usually have to wait till the films get released for TV, but I do get to see them sooner or later. Have a great day, hugs, Valerie
ReplyDeleteI hear ya, Valerie-Jael. Hope you've had a great day also:)
DeleteHugs, Sandra
I almost rented the Age of Adaline but decided on 3 others. I want to see Cinderella for sure. These 2 films sound better than the ones i rented. The Woman in Black was actually not too bad but they could have done so much more. I couldn't wantch John Wick because there was a brutal scene where his beagle puppy was killed and I am still very upset over this. Hot Pursuit was a hot mess-don't bother
ReplyDeleteI wanted to see John Wick. But I didn't rent it because of that scene. I bet that was tough on you, Birgit. Sending you a hug.
DeleteI'm gonna apparently out myself here but I had NO idea that they did another Cinderella movie...
ReplyDeleteRobert, Not to worry. Just wait a few years and another one will come out;)
DeleteMovie and pizza night... I like that. Too bad it's Monday.
ReplyDeleteHi Blue,
DeleteIt's only five days away........
Not too kenn on Mondays, Loved the post , congrats on your releases.
ReplyDeleteYvonne.
Thanks, Yvonne.
DeleteWe're just about to put Monday to bed.
I want to see Cinderella, but I must admit I'm really looking forward to the live action Beauty and the Beast they're making. I like the premise of Age of Adaline a lot, but I haven't seen that movie either.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh. It's a mind meld. I was telling the hh Saturday night, that I really want to see Beauty and the Beast.
ReplyDeleteI loved Cinderella!
