What's really happening during the movies

Progression of what hubs and I do during movies:

First met--used movie time to inch closer and closer to each other on the couch.  Ever slyly, or course.  I would lean forward to get a drink of water and when I would lean back I would move ever so slightly to the right.  Before the end of the movie, BAM! I was sitting right next to him.  I still remember him reaching over and grabbing my hand for the first time while watching a movie.

Dating--We would go out to Blockbuster and rent a movie knowing full well we would be spending the time lip-locked.  Seriously, why did we even bother renting the movie?  and seriously, we were apparently love starved.

Married--Netflix a normal 90 minute movie.  We have to watch it in about three separate time periods because we are about to fall asleep.   We just got a Lord of the Rings movie.  We are never going to be able to finish it.

Who knew movies would be such a hot topic?

Well, hehehe, I knew it would be. 

But I wanted to update on how Anthony and I view movies.

1.  We rarely go to the movies because it is so dang expensive; however, we did get some gift cards for the theater, so we will def be hitting that up.

2.  I don't like going to the movies because other people are there.  People can be so dumb.
Adults--It says no phones.  You being on your bright iphone screen in front of me is possibly, in that moment the rudest thing I can think of. 

Teenagers--They can't shut up.  They go to the movies to do social ladder climbing.  I don't want to be apart of it.  Some of my proudest moments consist of getting them kicked out of the theater.  Evil, I know, but I paid money to watch a movie in quiet.

Children--I don't think I could sit through a movie with one of my students in the theater.  I also do question parents motives when their seven year old is in a movie behind me asking, "What does that mean?"  It is a freaking sexual innuendo.  Your child should not be here!!!  It makes me understand exactly where all my students' issues come from. 

 3.  We have enjoyed our experience at an adults only theater.  For me, it is worth the extra $15 to know that a child is not in the movie watching something that he\she is not going to be able to process appropriately.  If you are around me, Grapevine Mills has a theater that is dine in, lazy boy chairs, no children heaven. BLISS is available here.

4.  Other movie viewing options:  Netflix is pretty cheap and very addicting.  Also, Redbox can also be hit or miss.  But you can get it for free using these codes.  We have tried them.  Some work, some don't.  Redbox Free Rental Codes

 So, rent a movie, pop up some popcorn, call over some friends, and have a cheap hang out night.
