Movie Reviews: Superbad & Balls Of Fury
We saw 2 movies this weekend. It is seriously the most we’ve been to the theatre in a really long time. We recently discovered that if you go to the theatre on Fri, Sat, or Sun and Holidays in the AM, you can get a ticket for $4. Not bad compared to the $8.75 it is to normally get in. So we saw Balls of Fury on Sunday morning and Superbad this morning.
Balls of Fury was pretty funny. It wasn’t as hilarious as I was expecting it to be but it definitely had its moments. And I guess the story line was pretty good so maybe thats why there wasn’t all of that stupid, side-splitting hilarity. However, Superbad was a totally stupid storyline and I laughed my ass off throughout most of it. The storyline in Superbad was your typical teenage trying-to-get-laid deal. It was sooo stupid but it seemed like every 10-15 minutes there was some new unexpected event occuring that was just too hilarious for words. If you have a somewhat vulgar, perverted sense of humor.. I totally recommend it.
Anyway that was the real excitement of my weekend. Gene and I “started” on taping off our guest bathroom to paint. I took everything out of there. It is a tiny bathroom with a tub/shower but I have been pretty lazy about getting the painting project started. My guest bathroom is a Palm Tree theme therefore I am painting the walls green. I’m hoping it turns out to be an “earthy” green color. I ended up buying cheap paint at Walmart so it’s not QUITE as earthy as the sample I picked out at Home Depot, but it was about 1/2 the price of the one at Home Depot. I’m really excited because it is my first time to paint. I am going to work on changing the light fixtures and hardware (towel bar, toilet paper holder, etc.) in that bathroom too. It is going to be our first official “remodel” of the house. We’re not doing any MAJOR updates in there. It already has a tile floor and the sink, toilet and tub/tile seems to be in pretty good condition. Some paint and a few minor updates ought to do the trick. I’ll take before/after pics.
Time for bed.. Need to get some rest before I go back to work tomorrow. It ought to be a CRAZY day to get back. Three day weekends are nice but we always end up paying for them when we get back :(
