WEEKEND MOVIE PICKS........2 winners and a loser

The weekend is fast approaching and I am here to save you time and money

before you go pick out that Blockbuster movie for

weekend viewing.....

First off you should be using Redbox......because nothing says a bargain like

a Dollar First Run Movie Rental.....

We love the Redbox because they are popping up all over the place...

In WalMart.....grocery stores.....7-Elevens......

We love it because you can reserve a movie by going online at

http://www.redbox.com/

Then just stop by your designated location you choose and pick it up....

Best part.....you can return it to any location.....Even in another state!!

and how can you beat renting a movie for $1.00.....

Let me tell you how.....

You can rent this dog....

Daughter warned us that it was not even worth a dollar....

And she was pretty much on the mark....

it had about 2 funny scenes that lasts about a minute....

And Kristin Davis should be ashamed of herself for portraying

Jon Favreau's wife.....

and he should be ashamed of himself for being shirt-less through half the movie....

Save your dollar or your $5.00 or your movie on demand.....

Amelia was a much better pick.....

Hillary Swank.....although I am not a fan......was very good as Amelia Earhart

Richard Gere was even entertaining as her husband George Putnam.....

of the Putnam publishing empire....

A good story but ofcourse we all know the outcome......

Certainly worth a $1.00 for some cold weather

stay at home entertainment.....

It might even be worth the $5.00 fee that Blockbuster now charges.....

and all I have to add to that is

Redbox is going to put them right out of business.....

But if you ladies want to see a really really good flick

Then Rent This.......

"Coco........Before Chanel......"

Starring Audrey Tautou

This is a fabulous movie even though sub titles are involved.....

I seem to actually be able to follow along better when I can read sub-titles then without.....

And the scenery and the costumes are just beautiful....

It opens with Coco as a child and takes you through her life up until she becomes

the famous fashion designer we all know for those fabulous black and white

suits.....and she started out as a hat designer.....

Who knew?

Oh....I'm sure daughter knew.....

As daughter is a huge fan and if you all remember Miss "B" dressed up as Coco

for Halloween this year when she went to the opera....

pearls and all.....

This movie will not disappoint.....sub-titles and all......

And if you haven't seen this favorite you might want to pick this up too.....
Wonderful music.....
Great scenes in Paris....
and the ever favorite Garden Gnome!!
A very amusing story and again with sub-titles but one of the best movies ever....
And just one more.....

Can you tell I am an Audrey Tautou fan....
If you have seen and enjoyed Amelie but have not seen
"A Very Long Engagement"
You will love this just as much.....
It's the same type of wacky movie that Amelie is and if you pay attention you will
find it extremely funny.....

Both "Amelie" and " A Very Long Engagement"

are not available at the Redbox but can be found at Blockbuster and Netflix....

So I hope you have a great weekend where ever in the country you live.....
Hopefully you will have no snow.....
some warmer weather...
And maybe a big bowl of popcorn.
Enjoy!!
