Daydreamer Walter Mitty must make some tough decisions in his rather mundane life, which will change everything forever. He has spent the past 16 years working for Life magazine developing negatives for the photos.
Well the day arrived for the secret screening! A worker from Cineworld said a few things before the film about it being a World Exclusive and that she didn’t even know what the film was going to be and ironically plugged the Unlimited screening for next Monday, which is none other than . . . yes you guessed it ‘The Secret Life of Walter Mitty’
So after sitting through the trailers and Kevin Bacon advert you can imagine everyone’s disappointment when ‘The Secret Life of Walter Mitty’ flashed up on the screen!!! Some people even left before it started (bit much really at least give it a chance).
One of my favorite things about driving a lot and being alone in the car is singing along to the songs on the radio (or CD). So when I see a character in a film doing exactly that I really do just love it. Mainly because I can relate to it so much! I have spent quite a lot of time on YouTube trying to find clips, which has proven to be quite difficult! Let’s admit it, gone are the days of singing in the shower . . . it’s all about letting go and singing your heart out in the car. I love seeing other drivers do it as well, especially if you realise you both have the same radio station on. Just brilliant! But don’t forget that singing along in a car can be done as duet or you can get a group singing going along! Funny moments can also happen when just one person decides to go for it and sing!
Although a great one and possibly one of the best to start off with. Tom Cruise in Jerry Maguire . . . now if you don’t act like this when a song you love comes on the radio, don’t forget the changing radio station to find a good song, then you must be boring whilst driving! Over to Tom . . .
The latest blogathon event around the film-blogging world is ‘A Life in Movies’ this quite simply means I have picked a film from each since I was born. That year being 1987. The approach I have taken to this post is to document the films which have meant something to me. Mainly from that time (although the first couple of years will be that I watched them when old enough to remember).
I always enjoy doing blog posts like this one as it always lets you take a trip down memory lane when it comes to certain films. Also the thought of then posting them the same day as many other blogs and then having the chance to compare and see if they have chosen any of the same films in their list as well.
Most of the films in my list consist of my most watched films ever. Mainly because of over watching as a child and not being able to pass the film over if it is on TV now. So here goes my life in movies . . .
The first poster has been released for the third film in the “Meet the Parents” franchise. Which is now branching to Greg and Pam having a baby! I have always loved Meet the Parents so I hope this will still be funny, even if it is the same jokes over again which we found in Meet the Fockers.
Possibly the most predictable Oscars in recent times. But what was the show like? Well I thoroughly enjoyed it last year and that was because of host Hugh Jackman and some changes made to the show. I had also seen most of the nominated films and was much Team Rourke thinking we were going to see Mickey win for his role in “The Wrestler” a film I really loved. But that didn’t happen and then the very overrated Slumdog took the big prize, I pretty much fell out of love with the Oscars.
My thoughts and opinions on the Oscar’s will be coming in the next couple of days when I manage to finish watching the ceremony. So I decided to search for pictures of the winners, my favorite actors and actresses along with pictures of the winners.
Greg Focker a male nurse must meet his girlfriend’s parents for the first time and Jack Byrnes former CIA is his worst nightmare. The film manages to have so many funny moments and really is a very good comedy.
