New Movie Reviews

If you noticed, on the right hand column of my blog is a link to another page with movie reviews. I added a few new posts over the last two days, so check it out if you want (no pressure).

A funny side story about one of the films: There is a new theater in Redwood City that we like going to. It's close, in a newly renovated part of downtown, has nice stadium seating, and is situated right next to a store that sells just cream puffs (mmmm....). The only downside is that it's in a place that attracts an interesting crowd at times. We were never more aware of this than the time we went to see The Host. The girl selling us the tickets actually tried to talk us out of seeing the movie because it's subtitled!

Girl: You know it's a Korean movie.
Us: Yes, we'll have two tickets.
Girl: It's subtitled.
Again we assured her that this is the film we wanted to see.
Girl: Well, some people go in there, not realizing it's subtitled, and decide they want to see something else.

Ha ha ha.. I wonder if she knows that she isn't providing a public service by warning people about "excessive reading".

That's great. Good to know the theater is promoting culture.
