Sanctuary! Sanctuary!

Yes, just like the Hunchback of Notre Dame, I find myself needing to escape. I know we all do it. I find that special place that allows me to get away from everything and ease my mood. My sanctuary is the movie theater, Cinemark or Boardwalk. I go to them whenever I have a bad day. The therapy from films are cheaper than a shrink.

The films that have happy endings are obviously my favorite. I recently saw The Watchmen, and it was a great film. Don't worry, I'm not going to ruin it. It was a heck of a day, and I called my friend Luke to ask if he wanted to see a film. As I sat there waiting for the film to start, I remember feeling the rush of not knowing where the story is going. The most exciting part of film, is living the adventure with the characters.

My favorite movies include My Fair Lady, Pretty Woman, Cars, A Few Good Men, Men of Honor, Galaxy Quest, Enchanted, and many more. I run the gambit of films to find the good and bad. I see most films by word of mouth. My friends will tell me their favorite films, and I'll rent them. Many of the films I've seen have been good, but others are awful.

I saw a film called Feast from a friends recommendation, and it was B-A-D! Not Killer Clowns from Outer Space bad, but "I want those 2 hours back," bad. I hate it when I see a film, and I wasted my day with it. I enjoy crap-tastic movies, but I don't want to feel worse for seeing a film.

I know I'll see many more crummy movies, but when I see a gem, I get excited.
