“O Nerdy Night!”
Day 13: Holiday Movies
Every Christmas my family and I go to the movies. It’s a tradition and we always look forward to the holiday releases. This year the options are:
The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug (The most likely choice as it is the nerdiest!)
Saving Mr. Banks (Second most likely choice. We love Disney and this is a family friendly movie!)
The Secret Life of Walter Mitty (The underdog of choices as it seems really heart-warming, but will most likely not have a chance against The Hobbit)
47 Ronin (Looks awesome, but action rarely makes the Christmas cut.)
American Hustle (The big NO! Not one member of my family wants to see 5 of the most attractive movie stars look like 1970’s trailer trash! No matter how much critical acclaim it garners.)
Justin Bieber’s Believe (No one saw the first one and this is what… a sequel?)
Walking with Dinosaurs (We may all be giant children, but none will be tempted by this film about talking dinosaurs.)
Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom (My personal choice. With the recent passing of Nelson Mandela, this is both important and inspiring. Sounds like Christmas to me!)
Frozen (Strong possibilities. It will still be in the theaters, but I have yet to see it, and chances are the members of my family haven’t seen it yet either. And I mentioned the deep love of Disney!)
Grudge Match (Again with the big no! Granny would never go for this film about 2 old timers duking it out years past their prime!)
What will you be seeing this holiday season?
