As tradition stipulates, I like to see a movie in the afternoon prior to the Super Bowl. So while I really want to see "Fish Tank", opening this weeekend in Chicago, and plan to, that is not a film for Super Bowl Sunday. I want to see something that does not demand as much attention. The problem? There really is nothing else out I want to see. I mean, nothing. Hey, I'm as big a sucker for crappy romantic comedies as the next guy but even the comely Kristen Bell doesn't make me want to go see "When In Rome". Denzel Washington is essentially the definition of charismatic and yet I still have no desire to plunk down $11 (matinee price!) for "Book of Eli".
So I've narrowed the contenders to two: "The Blind Side" and "Edge of Darkness". Why these? Well, "The Blind Side" is obviously due to Sandra Bullock's leading role that seems destined to bring her an Oscar (while Kelly Macdonald sits at home eating chunky monkey). "Edge of Darkness" is due to...I'm honestly not sure. I guess I've always kinda liked Mel Gibson as an actor. I love "Signs". He may be a complete a--hole in real life, and it seems more and more likely that's the case, but that is 100% irrelevant to what he does onscreen. And even though many of the lines in the "Edge of Darkness" preview made me cringe I guess...I don't know! I just want to see a movie on Super Bowl Sunday! Is that so wrong?! STOP JUDGING ME!!!
So I need some help. Anyone who wanders onto my blog over the next couple days please feel free to cast a vote for either "The Blind Side" or "Edge of Darkness" and, if you want, tell me why.
I'm not saying 100% I'll take your advice. I may wake up on Sunday and just not have it in me to deal with the schmaltz of "The Blind Side" but I'll strongly consider anything anyone has to say. Desperate times call for...well, you know.Source URL: https://extravagancedeplumes.blogspot.com/2010/02/help-what-should-i-see.html
