essay 2. Films.


I honestly think watching movies are my favorite thing to do on my "relaxation" days. I don't really have many of those kind of days with work and school so I'd assume I go see a good movie about one or two times a month. Maybe two or three at home on Netflix. I used to see them a lot more when I was in high school and had more free time. It is practically an American tradition if you ask me. What do couples usually do on a first date? Go see a movie. What do you usually do with a group of friends? Dinner and a MOVIE. When I was younger my family made Sunday nights movie nights. It is a great way to hang out and do something with people you care about.

There are so many movies that I have yet to see that I wish I had more time to do so. I have a list about a mile long that I haven't seen, but am dying to. Most of them include action movies such as "The Expendables," Batman: The Dark Knight Rises," and "Lawless." Luckily ones that are released on video, I have the convince of just ordering off of my smart TV on Netflix. I think watching movies has definitely became more convent to people. Especially

My favorite kinds of movies are Romantic Comedies, Romance, and Action. I'm not too big on Horror movies or gory films. My favorite films of all time are older movies such as "The Goonies," "Jurassic Park," and "E.T." I guess you could put Steven Speilberg as one of my top movie directors. He has a very adventurous way of keeping his films eventful and entertaining The worst movie I think I've ever seen is definitely "Don't Mess With the Zohan" with Adam Sandler. It was way too cheesy for my liking.people with hectic work and school schedules (such as me).

To me it is crazy how the movie world has changed over the last decade. I miss going to see movies in a drive in theater or having to drive to Blockbuster movie rental store to rent. It was so intriguing to me when my parents would take me to these places. Now it is all in the convince of our household electronics to bring movies straight to us. I think the fun and excitement is lost for families to rent movies.

Currently, I often go see movies with my boyfriend for date nights. Even though it is only a few times a month, it is a great way for us to spend time together. I don't always get to go see the girly movies I'd like since we have to agree upon one. It’s mostly action or comedy. Our most recent film we seen was a comedy called "That's My Boy" starring Adam Sandler. It was so hilarious. I also like to go see a good movie to catch up with old friends from home.
