Movie Weekend

I woke up this morning thinking it was Monday. My Bad! I do this with holidays when we suddenly find ourselves with a short week. So yeah, I'm a little discombobulated. It's Tuesday when it feels like Monday but we'll adjust and survive just like we always do.

Did anyone do anything fun over the Memorial Day weekend? We were really laid back but sometimes laid back is best. We smoked ribs on Sunday and Saturday evening we went to dinner and a movie. It's been ages since we've been to one and if you'll recall I wrote about the summer flicks coming out this summer not long ago. So, we went to see Terminator. I was outvoted. I was pushing for Wolverine but it was showing at an inconvenient time. Anyway, I'm a good sport and I figured watching Christian Bale for a couple of hours wouldn't be such a trial. Truthfully, I wasn't all that impressed with the movie. Christian is billed as the star but he's honestly not in the movie very long. The main star was a very great looking Aussie actor. I've forgotten his name but he stole the show and there were way more scenes of him than anyone else. So if you go to this thinking you'll see a LOT of CB, then you'll be disappointed.

Actually the best part of going to the movies this weekend was seeing the coming attractions featuring the new Transformers movie. Now THAT looks like a fun flick. I believe it comes out sometime in June.

What did you guys do over the long weekend? Anything fun?

I almost forgot about this. Not enough coffee yet, I guess. Fran Lee, a writer friend, made me a trailer for Lone Star Lycan (Ellora's Cave, July 10). She says these are really easy to make. I'm planning to get a new computer next month so I'm going to dive into learning how to do this. Tell me what you think of this one!

I really want to see the new transformers movie. I loved the last one. Not really interested in Terminator.

We had a relaxing weekend too. yesterday we grilled at the park.

The hero from Transformers is in college in this one. It looks really really good. No, Terminator isn't my cup of tea either. IT was more about spending time with everyone.

I can't wait to see the Transformers! Loved the first one. And is it right that Christian Bale is in Terminator? That's bound to be interesting.

Cool trailer, Regina. I don't have any trailers, been debating about them for awhile now.
