Summer Movies: 1 down, 4 to go.

Jonathan and I saw POSEIDEN on Saturday afternoon. I loved it! He commented, "you never took your eyes off the screen." It was kind-of supenseful on a 'who will live, who will die?' sort of way. There are a couple suprizes thrown in.

The only way it's like the original (which rocks by the way - check it out!) is the whole boat turning over thing. The characters and the ending are totally different.

I think I liked the original a tad more for it's character development, and it was much more emotional because so many more people died. This new one had me a little confused on who the characters where, why were they on that boat in the first place, why should I care about them and where did that giant wave come from? This new version had way more action sequences, and these new people seems to have many, many more challenges to overcome.

I think it's worth the $6 (or what ever it costs to see a movie in your town).

Amber, saw your comment on Traci's blog - yes I'm still growing out the bangs... they're in my face thankyouverymuch. But they haven't been snipped yet.

$6 was a matinee price. :0( Normally I think it's $8 or maybe $9?!? I haven't paid full price in a while. At Disney we can buy movie tickets for $5.50 - but you have to wait 2 weeks to use them.
