Did You Ever Have to Make Up Your Mind

I’m in the mood for a movie tonight, just not entirely sure which one. At the moment, I find myself trying to decide between 30 DAYS OF NIGHT and RENDITION…..which is sort of like asking yourself “Do I want steak for dinner or a baloney sandwich?”

Now, I’m not trying to say that one of these movies will be infinitely better than the other – I haven’t seen them, how could I know? I just mean to say that they are so different, which is probably what’s making my decision even harder. It’s not like I’m trying to decide between 3:10 TO YUMA and THE ASSASSINATION OF JESSE JAMES, right? Do I want to be scared, or do I want to be intrigued? In the past I might flip to a review or two of a critic I trusted, but ever since I started writing my own, I stopped reading other peoples’ opinions before I see for myself. And it looks like I’ll be going alone, so I can’t even defer to a group consensus. What’s an indecisive movie lover to do??!!

Y’know, I think I’ll just make things easy on myself and go for the one that starts first. Kinda curious, if you had to pick one movie currently in theatres – which would you see?

Opening in Theatres Today…

• THE NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS in 3-D (Can’t go wrong there)
• THINGS WE LOST IN THE FIRE (This is why you shouldn’t smoke in bed)
• RESERVATION ROAD (Reviewed in the previous post)
• RENDITION (Reese gets serious)
• MY KID COULD PAINT THAT (But she’s all out of yellow)
