The last day of this horrible shift. Thank. GOD!!! I can finally start to get back on track with EVERYTHING!!
I never made it to Ulta because my car decided to be a shit and have the car battery die. I don't own jumper cables so I've been carpooling with the hubs. Joy. But tonight, I'm headed to Sephora to pick up my freebie birthday gift and then possibly to Ulta. Depending on how long it takes at Sephora. I only have 2 hours to go to Sephora and Ulta and I'm carpooling. Which means I'll be at the mercy of someone else. And I hate that.
So last weekend D and I went to see The Dark Knight Rises. I loved it. It was really good. Selina Kyle's character was SPOT ON with the comic books. I personally could understand every word that Bane said and THE SCENE with Bane "breaking" Batman... Wow. Just. Wow. Everyone's acting was flawless. The one who I thought was REALLY great was Michael Caine. He made it the most emotional. And we FINALLY got our Christopher Nolan twist!! For me, the movie wasn't slow. I've heard people saying it was too long and too slow. No. It wasn't. It did what it needed to do to make the movie great. It was some campy comic book movie like The Avengers. It was a realistic take on a comic book. What I don't get is why people are saying one movie is better than the other. They are two TOTALLY different movies. Not something you can really compare. The only thing they have in common is that they're based off comic books. That's it. One is more action, humor oriented. The other is more dark, realistic, action oriented. I see The Dark Knight Rises as more of a drama-action, something that is Oscar worthy and something that was meticulously made to be a GOOD movie. Where as The Avengers is more of a comedy-action and something that was made to please the comic book fans.
I plan on seeing this movie again when it hits the dollar theater. I just can't stand spending SO MUCH on a movie ticket!!! It's crazy!!! D and I spent the same amount that we would buying it on Blu-Ray just to watch the damn movie once!! But most certainly worth it this time around. It's a very rare occasion that D and I make it to the movies anymore, but we go for the GOOD movies.
Tomorrow the family is going to the zoo! Hooray! I don't know what going down on Sunday since it's my berfday and all. I'm sure I'll just veg out. Or clean. One or the other. Plus! I have my July favorites video to shoot for you all. And a haul to write about!
Have a great weekend everyone!!!
