A 43 hour marathon baby!!

Tuesday, January 05, 2010

Alright boys and girls - I think we've got some winners.  I went through and added my selections to Skinde's selections and we've got what looks like a grueling few days of film watching!

Saturday is going to be a mother of a day!!  We stay up all night Friday night, fly out of Logan airport at 6:30AMish, arrive around 11ish MT and have THREE films to catch that day, the first at 6, the second at 9:15 and the last at MIDNIGHT BABY!!!  We're looking at about a 43 hour stint!  Woot! 

I'm really excited about some of these films - New Low looks funny - I saw "drunk angry girlfriend" in the description and new it would be a riot immediately.  Armless sounds amusing, as some dude apparently decides he wants to cut his arms off (and all the secrecy has his wife thinking he is having an affair) - Jack goes boating is also a comedy, so we're in for a night of laughs on Saturday!

Sunday should be a fun day - we've got a bunch of shorts and animation shorts lined up during the day, followed up with "The Freebie" at night - a couple looking to spice up their love life decide maybe they should get one "freebie" - a night with anyone of their choosing. You had to know one of those relationship movies was bound to find it's way into our calendar!

Monday will be a slow start - a little breakfast, a little lunch and then we're off to a drama about a soldier returning from Iraq, attempting to fit back into his life.  This one is followed up by Blue Valentine, another more seriou, relationship movie.  We end the evening at midnight with a thriller/horror - "Splice", a genetic experiment that goes wrong.  

Tuesday is the final day of our trip, and we've got another mid-day thriller movie, Frozen.  I'm thinking this is a great end as we'll have time to shop, eat, drink and relax before packing it up to head home early Wednesday morning!

As I look over the schedule I can't help but notice there's not a lot of drinking time... not unless we find some place open at 1am!  I'll have to make that top priority!!
