Movies - Hitchhiker's & Kingdom of Heaven
Earlier this week, we saw Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. We got in to the first showing of the day, so it only cost us $8 for the two of us. The movie was kind of long, but there were some funny parts. It was kind of like a cross of Shawn of the Dead and The 5th Element. Then, last night, John met us in La Jolla and we saw Kingdom of Heaven. Orlando Bloom plays a blacksmith again, eh? Also, we see the return of a good portion of the cast of Braveheart. I thought the movie was pretty good, although John and Laetitia felt it was too slow toward the beginning. Maybe I thought it was so good because I still had the faint memory of how bad Alexander was - I almost got up and walked out of that one, and usually, I'll just sleep in the theater if the movie doesn't keep my interest. I guess it's just countdown until Revenge of the Sith, coming in a couple of weeks. Last night, Conan O'Brian said that Star Wars fans have another 2 weeks to NOT find a date LOL
