It's not my promotion but here you go. It is for March 8th at 7:30 in Plano (Legacy and 75).

I personally thought it was one of the funniest movies I have ever seen. You should try to go if you are in the area.
Like I said, it is not my promotion so when they are gone, they are gone.
Just a post of random thoughts about movies and beers mostly but also about things that I deem humorous or important.

Project X
To be completely honest, I have thrown a few parties in my life. I was a bit out of my mind for a while in college and there were more than a few parties that were a little wild. Keg after keg of terrible beer, burning furniture in the yard, the "topless after 12" party, visits from police and mad neighbors, I will admit that some of them got completely out of control.
Well, I thought so at least. "Project X" makes me concerned for the copy cat parties that will mimic this movie in the future. And don't think it won't happen! Kids are pretty much morons until they 'grow out of it' (I grew out of it when I was about 27).
The party in this movie was unreal. Just when you think it couldn't get worse, it gets worse. And worse. And worse. It is moderately incredible how far the damage and insanity spreads. It was the kind of man made disaster that you morbidly kind of want to be a part of but are glad it isn't anywhere near your home (L.A. Riots come to mind).
This movie really does have it all. Violence, drugs, topless women, violent little people, riot police, arson, alcohol abuse, destruction of...well...everything...it was a fun movie shot in a 'documentary' type style. Parts of it really reminded me of crowded house parties and made me a bit nostalgic. In that light, it really was a good movie, very vulgar and a lot of fun. An insane depiction of the most memorable night anyone could never remember.

Friends with Benefits
Mila Kunis is hot...and Woody Harrelson is freaking hysterical. This is a decent movie, very funny and dirty in its way. It is a romantic comedy. Obviously, we know from the very beginning how it will turn out. Honestly, it is a boring formula. Nothing is shocking.
But if it turned out any different, we would be disappointed. We would not be happy with how it all ended.
All in all, it was a funny movie. Justin Timberlake is a fantastic actor. He really has found his calling. Every role he is in seems so genuine. So earnest and true. And Mila Kunis is also fun. She seemed so pigeonholed in "That 70's Show" as the stupid girl. It is really awesome that she has blossomed into such a fascinating actress. Doesn't hurt that she is pretty with a good body. And that she is so natural as the intelligent smartass. Makes her a lot more fun.
In the course of having four captain & sevens and five beers, this movie really made me laugh at first but after the first 2/3's really was formulaic and boring. Take from that what you will.

Gone
Jamie and I went to see "Gone" this evening starring Amanda Seyfried. Fantastic movie. Super suspenseful thriller with a very real feeling of hyper paranoia. Amanda Seyfried is a great actress and she really shines in this. Her portrayal of Jill as the "cops don't believe her and you are not sure you do either" protagonist is spot on, a moving performance. The only time it did not seem natural was during an interrogation/interview with the police. That seemed a bit strange and forced but the rest of the movie she was so intense and focused that it was a bit frightening.
***SPOILER***
And to be honest, the end of the movie was exactly what it should have been. Extreme revenge for a life that was ruined by terror and fear, for many lives that were cut short, and a complete lack of desire to be vindicated for everyone's disbelief at what she always knew was true. She didn't need the glory, she just did what needed to be done.
***SPOILER***
I am very excited to see Lovelace later this year. I believe that she will be incredible in that movie too (and not just because of what will probably be quite gratuitous nudity either...)
