You Talkin' to ME?

Yes, I know the title happens to be a movie quote. Spoken my the incomparable Robert De Niro in Taxi Driver. This happens to be a movie that I have never seen.

But it IS a perfect segway into what I will be talking about.

No, it's not about taxis. Or their drivers.

Not Robert De Niro, either.

But MOVIES. Yes, those wonderful things we watch as entertainment. Can be used to make us cry, laugh, smile, or just to numb our minds from our own dull lives. We go see them with friends in a theater and make a nice night out of it. We watch them with people in our homes, at a party; or alone, to make it a cozy night in with a beloved pet, blankets, and hot chocolate.

Wikipedia defines a film as "a series of still or moving pictures."

I define it as "Pure awesomeness squeezed into 3 hours or less. Usually."

Now go watch one.

I mean, who needs a social life? Not me. Not you.

You're reading this blog, aren't you?

Now go watch Harry Potter or something.
