Movies....

Tonight, I went to the movies with Sharon. We saw 'Fame'.

"This movie is based upon the 1980 film which follows NYC talent attending the New York City High School for the Performing Arts, (Known today as Fiorello H. Laguardia H.S.) students get specialized training that often leads to success as actors, singers, etc. In 1936, New York City Mayor Fiorello H. LaGuardia founded the High School of Music & Art in order to provide a facility where the most gifted and talented public school students of New York City could pursue their talents in art or music, while also completing a full academic program of instruction. In 1948, the School of Performing Arts was created to provide training in performance skills to students who wished to prepare for professional careers in dance, music or drama." (imdb)

We both liked it! We weren't expecting a lot from the movie but overall it was cute. We think it might have been better if they'd focused on a couple of characters instead of like 10 people. And maybe give some more details into the characters storyline. :)

Some previews before the movie were.....'NEW MOON', 'The Vampire's Assistant' and 'Whip it'. After the 'new moon' preview everyone clapped with excitement. I thought it was cool and I told Sharon she totally needs to read the books or watch the last movie. I think she's thinking about it and who knows maybe we can get her to join in on the "Vampire Craze"! Speaking of the "Vampire Craze", a new movie called 'The Vampire's Assistant' is coming out. It looked really dumb to me though. And lastly, the 'whip it' trailer looked cute. From the few commercials I've seen on TV I thought the movie looked dumb but the extended clip tonight made the movie look really cute. I want to see it. Hmmm....a girl's night in the future? :)
