Confessions of the International Shopaholic on Friday the 13th
Here in the Seattle area there are three new movies to choose from this Friday the 13th weekend. They include Confessions of a Shopaholic, a new version of Friday the 13th, and The International.
Confessions of a Shopaholic is based on the popular book and may be a good movie, the ads, trailers and such don’t look that good. I confess that I will probably check it out down the road at some point, cause I like Isla Fisher, but it ain’t getting me to the theater this weekend.
Friday the 13th (2009) is a remake, or re-envisioning, of the successful movie franchise that spawned many a sequel. I’ve never been a big horror guy and a hockey-masked mass-murdering villain that has the same first name as me isn’t going to get me to the theater.
The International looks good. The trailer looks good. The cast looks good. But, the launch date has me worried. I have a feeling that it isn’t going to be all that good. Yet, I will be sitting at my local theater tomorrow morning taking in this action thriller.
Do any of these movies look good to you? Will you be checking any of them out this weekend?
He’s Just Not a Push Fanboy
This weekend there are three new movies that I am interested in seeing.
First, tomorrow I am going to see Push. I fear that it is going to be another Jumper, but pretty much anything action oriented is better on the big screen. So, if it looks interesting at all, I’m going to want to see it at a theater. Here’s hoping that there is more than just action and special f/x.
Second, on Saturday I am going to go see Fanboys. It has been delayed for quite sometime and is finally making its way to the big screen. I am pretty much condition to want to see anything Star Wars related, so this is a much see. Plus, it stars Kristen Bell from one of my all time favorite shows, Veronica Mars.
Lastly, on Sunday I think I might go see He’s Just Not That Into You. It’s a total chick flick, but there is something about the mega cast that has me interested.
They all look good to me, so I think it will be a weekend triple feature. I just hope they are at least close to being as good as they look, or better in the case of Push.
Do any of these movies look or sound good to you?
A Fantastic Friday for New Movie Friday
The three movies opening this Friday in a theater near me are D.O.A.: Dead or Alive, Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer and Nancy Drew.
D.O.A.: Dead or Alive is one of those movies that I will watch someday. Probably on some night this winter when it is dark and dreary out, the mercury has dropped and it hits one of the premium cable outlets like HBO, Showtime or Starz. They really should have called it T.N.A.
Nancy Drew looks like it might be cute and fun, but since I am not a 13-year-old girl, I think I will pass.
That leaves Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer for this Friday. I didn’t see the first one
How about you? What will you be heading out to the theater to see this weekend?
Summer of the Threquel Continues
First it was Spider-Man 3, then it was Shrek the Third and then came Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End. Now Ocean’s Thirteen cons its way into theaters nationwide.
So, Surf’s Up for Ocean’s Thirteen this Friday. I am not in to the animated movies, although I really liked The Incredibles
What I am really hoping for is that Ocean’s Thirteen has more of the feel of the first one
What will you be heading out to see this weekend?
