Listen to Her Heart

One of my favorite songs covered by one of my favorite bands. It's such a nice gift of music and makes me incredibly happy.

Unashamed Movie Viewing

Today I walked into a theater packed with women to watch a movie about a bunch of male strippers. It was definitely worth the $4 ticket and weird moment you realize you're in the theater behind a line of women who in their late 60's maybe mid 70's. Hey, whatever, I got to get a nice view of Alex Pettyfer, Channing Tatum, Joe Manganiello, Matthew McConaughey, and Matt Bomer's bare asses. Whoever was on the casting project for this movie had some lucky days on the job.

I mean really... can it get any better?

Overall, I was surprised by the fact that the movie's actual story line wasn't too bad. I figured they'd focus most of the energy on the hot guys that the movie in general would completely suck, but it didn't. I haven't seen Beastly or I am Number Four, so I was kind of blown away by Alex Pettyfer. Anyone who can steal the spotlight from half naked Channing Tatum deserves some sort of award.

Oh wait, yes it can

The movie is certainly not lacking on eye candy, I can tell you that. My recommendation, make it a girls night, buy your tickets, get out of the heat (or into it) and sit back and enjoy.

All I'd really like to know is what they all had to do to get their bodies like that? And can I touch those abs?

Movie number 20 was Brave (I believe)

21 Terms of Endearment

22 Magic Mike 

I'd give them all 4 out of 5 stars

This playlist should otherwise be known as the "music a guy needs to grab my hand and dance with me to."

I've been really into Jazz and Classical stuff lately, so this playlist is pretty heavily, if not all, into those genres. I'm also going to make a small note that I just got done with Fifty Shades Darker which had a few of these songs in it, so the list is slightly inspired by that.

Behind on Movies

I'm behind and honestly don't remember all of what I've watched that need to be noted... but I will try.

17 was Captain America I believe... 4 out of 5 stars
18 was Snow White and the Huntsman... 4 out of 5 stars
19 was Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close... 4 out of 5 stars

That's definitely not all of them. This seemed like a pointless post but I haven't really given up on my blogging yet so I thought I'd go for it. Seriously all the movies were pretty good. I was really surprised by Snow White and the Huntsman being as well done as it was. I think everyone (including Kristen Stewart) did well in their parts, and the whole thing was a nice twist on the typical story.

Positive Thinking

I feel the need to share this

I found the "20 Things I Should Have Known at 20" list from The Buried Life's tumblr though it was originally written by Julian Smith. I should remember to keep these in mind.
