The Big Screen

I've heard from multiple people that Little Miss Sunshine is one of the greatest movies they have ever seen. I recently bought the DVD in Vietnam, and watched it the other day. I already had the mentality that this would be the best movie ever, and it actually was a really great movie. I think that its better if nobody hypes up a movie, then you find out for yourself that it is a good movie. Setting your expectations too high can actually make you think more about the movie, rather than just enjoying it. The newest hit movie which everyone saw but me was called, "Blades of Glory." I had to go to the hospital on that day when everyone saw it so I missed out. I watched a clip of this movie on someone's myspace around ten times because it was so hilarious. I find going to the movies to be somewhat overrated because for one you pay $9, and unless you have a boyfriend/girlfriend, you end up going with like ten other people. Plus going to the movies is not a very intellectual event, basically you watch the movie while sitting next to each other, then talk about the movie afterwards. There are many other more intellectual/fun things to do on a Friday/Saturday night, and I do feel they are really overrated. The prices are pretty outrageous, but no offense to people that do see movies every week.
