Hot Tub Time Machine & Robin Hood - Disappointing

I had 2 free tickets to the movies and wanted to see something close by to my house. There are not many great options mid-year and Hot Tub Time Machine ("HTTM") and Robin Hood are good examples of 'not great options'.

I am glad they were free otherwise I would have been pretty angry to have paid $12.50.

Of the two, HTTM was much better as it had some good laughs. My dad called it 'raunchy' (don't know why he would want to see that movie) but I would say it was just plain juvenile. I miss the days of John Cusack in Say Anything.

As for Robin Hood, I actually snoozed through part of the movie. It was 2 1/2 hours. It could have been 1 3/4 hour and about 3 less fight and horse riding scenes. I will admit that I did like Russell Crowe in it but other than that, it wasn't anything special.

Hot Tub Time Machine gets 3.5 popcorn kernals
Robin Hood gets 2.5 popcorn kernals

Weight Watchers Week 4

I usually don't make it this far when I do WW so I waited on posting until now. Although I have only lost 4.4 lbs in the last 4 weeks, I am happy with my food changes. I have COMPLETELY changed my diet. If it doesn't show up on the scale (it will have to eventually), then I will go nuts but Courtney (the Wednesday leader that I really like), assured me that eventually it will. I do have to show her my menu for a week so I will print one off etools. I think etools is amazing as are the message boards. I will keep plugging along and keep everyone updated as time progresses.

BTW, I tried WW many years ago and I lost about 40 lbs so I know it works. I just need to give it time and not give up hope so early.

You can join Weight Watchers now for a short time for free. I would highly recommend starting when it's free. They monthly plan also seems to be the best deal as well since it includes etools and forces you to be a member (because you paid) for at least a month. The month gives you that opportunity to see that it really DOES work.

The Ghost Writer

My rating: 3.5 popcorn kernels out of 5

The movie kept my interest but if I need to read IMDB after seeing a movie so I can understand it better, I have to detract a kernel. Also, 1/2 kernel removed from my rating for throwing in Kim Catrell. She was not necessary.

Check it out here: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1139328/
