Healthy food for the movies

I know I shouldn't but I have started taking food into the movies.  I can not handle the 32 oz (small) drink anymore---not if I want to make it through the whole movie.  Also, as a boomer, we have to avoid the three S's--sugar, starch & salt.  Thank God for MOTT'S sliced apples!  They come it a small individual bag that fits into my pocket and goes great with my coffee.

Do you sneak food into the movies?  Tell me what and how!

Spring Movie Fare

As you will see from our movie reviews at http://www.hisandhermovieview.com./ Spring brought us some very good movies. I was a little concerned that they sold PAUL as a funny children's movie when the humor was more adult then we as grandparents would like.  But HOP made up for it and I think RIO will follow in the same vein.

My best Spring movies are: Lincoln Lawyer, Win,Win & Arthur. 
What are your best Spring movies?

Coffee Please!

I when to see Iron Man 2 the other day and enjoyed it. (See our reviews at (www.hisandhermovieview.com) . 
We saw it at Cinema Arts in Fairfax and I was able to enjoy a fresh cup of coffee in the movie.  Why can't every theater have coffee? Why to some, who have it, stop serving it in the summer?  Does Starbucks close for the summer?  I can not enjoy a chocolate cookies without coffee.  As one gets older, popcorn, overly Sweet candy and gummy bears become a problem.  Give me cookies, coffee, and more pizza.  PLEASE!

Patrick:  Well "Sam" and I have finally decided to get serious about this blog.  We don't really know what we are doing, but the best way to learn is by doing.  We both love movies and enjoy going out to see them. This world is getting so detached due to the personal electronics, that we need to did out in the real world when we see a movie.  How can you enjoy a comedy when there is no one else there to laugh with you? 
There are good things-- the big screen that fully engulfs you.  The surround sound that makes you turn your head.  The smell of warm pop corn and the melting chocolate in your hand.

There are bad things--kids kicking you chair, people talking or texting, and the smell of smuggled in fried chicken.  But is all real and that's life.

WHAT IS THE GOOD AND THE BAD OF YOUR MOVIE GOING EXPERIENCE?

Land of the Lost

HER: I used to love Will Farrell on SNL, I don't know who could have been a bigger fan. Since SNL I can't stand to watch him. It doesn't take talent to make a fool of your self with a simpy look and a simpletons dialogue. I fought Patrick not to see "Land of the Lost" and he said that we had to to serve our audience. I am sorry folks, I tricked and bribed, seeing other movies that would serve our public and ah ha, victory we skated and did not see it. It is painful to even think of such an evening.
