Movie Project (watch all our movies)

So yesterday was like more of a trial run because we didn't actually start on the list of movies we own.  That was our Blockbuster rental so today is our actual start day with our own movies.  Today we watched:

3:10 to Yuma                                              and              9

Kind of an odd pairing, but both good all the same.  They actually both end on kind of a sad note which put us off a little and we feel like we need something a little more uplifting at the moment, but its pretty late now to start another one.

So what can I say, 3:10 to Yuma is a great movie with a great cast and Russell Crowe and Christian Bale are great in it.  We feel like the casting could have been reversed with their two characters and it wouldn't matter much.  It would have had a different feeling probably but it still would have been pretty kick-ass.

9 is visually a good movie and you surely get that Tim Burton feel all over it but with a twist of something else I can't put my finger on.  We were saying it feels a bit like Dieselpunk and Cyberpunk together.  We both have our favorite little doll people.  I happen to like the out there artist guy #6 and the kick ass warrior woman #7.  Lindsey likes the cataloging mute twins #3 and #4 and also the warrior woman #7.  How can you not like her?

We had a Hot Dog dinner with corn during the intermission between the two movies.  After the movies I decided it would be a good idea to actually print a list of the movies so we can cross them out when we are done with them.  So I had to get the list together which took along time and got it printed.  After crossing out only 2 of the 360 something movies we have... well, it was a little disheartening.  We have a long, long way to go.  I think we have more movies than days in the year so this will take a good deal more than a year to complete what with interjecting Blockbuster movies in there and if you consider how we wont really be able to watch movies during our wedding crazieness and our honeymoon in Disneyworld (woooohooo!)

So ends day one...
