My weekend

I spent a great deal of time at Greater Union on the weekend, watching not one but two movies. It's closing in on the lots-of-great-movies season again, otherwise known as Christmas, when all the big Hollywood blockbusters come reeling in to make their millions. Currently topping my to-watch list is King Kong. It's pretty much King Kong vs T-Rex... I'm going for the Kong!

Anyway, on Friday night, Al and I went and watched Saw 2. The original Saw was pretty impressive, so I had high expectations for its sequel. Despite the fact that I spent most of the movie watching through my picket-fence fingers (or staring at the side of Al's face), I still saw each and every gory scene... some that really really made my skin crawl. Again the story line was awesome, the twist not quite as shocking as the original movie, but still there was a fairly decent twist, and an open ending ready for Saw 3. Plus I thought the way it tied back to the Saw 1 bathroom was pretty darn cool.

On Saturday night, I saw Prime. Uma Uma Uma... how hot is Uma? And Bryan Greenberg.. who I know better as "Jake from One Tree Hill" - who ever knew young dad Jake had a bod under there??? Not bad at all. Prime is pitched as a romantic comedy, and while it has all the ingredients of a heart warming (yet heart pulling) romantic comedy, it also delves into some real issues such as religion, and more interestingly the ticking of a woman's biological clock - especially when she's 37, dating a 23 year old. Very interesting.. maybe not so much for the boys... although you do get to see Uma in lingerie more than a couple of times!

So that was my weekend!

And congrats to a certain "somebody!".... will blog about this when it's been made more public!
