November Movies

The Hollywood Holiday movie season has officially begun. This is the time of the year when they start to release the big movies for the holiday season. This is also around the time when the summer blockbusters come out on DVD. As a result, Bella becomes just a little bit poorer. Although, now that I do some fact-checking before releasing The List to the public, I see now that many movies have been pushed back, including The Kite Runner (love Marc Forster, can't wait for this one) and Charlie Bartlett (all the way back to February, no less). So perhaps I won't be quite as poor as I originally thought. Although the DVD list is still a little disheartening.

November 13 - Gilmore Girls Season 7 DVD - This is the final DVD in the collection. It makes me sad that the show ended the way they did, with the producers getting screwed over and leaving. Season 7 started a little shaky, but ended on a high note and went out with a bang. I miss this show, even though I think it's time had come. I will relive the glory through all seven season, which I will own soon!

November 13 - Ocean's 13 DVD - I may wait to purchase this until the price goes down, but it is still worth a note. It was much better than the mush of Ocean's 12.

November 20 - Hairspray DVD - I loved this movie! As a huge musical afficianado, I either love or hate the movie versions. This one was almost perfect. I've been waiting for the DVD for months, so I'm pretty psyched.

November 21 - August Rush - This is a movie that kept getting pushed back, and I'm thrilled that it is finally coming. I'm a sucker for movies all about the power of music (Mr. Holland's Opus being the supreme example) and the cast is phenomenal. This is a must-see for me.

November 21 - Enchanted - I may or may not see this in the theaters, depends on if anyone wants to go with me. It's definitely a cool concept.

November 27 - Waitress DVD - I loved this movie. Nathan Fillion is my hero, even if he plays a nerdy doctor here. Keri Russell is beautiful and charming in this. It's not for everyone, but I really enjoyed it. It's Keri's big month, with the Waitress DVD and August Rush all coming out. Good for her.

I did pretty well for myself in October. I saw Dan in Real Life and Across the Universe in the theaters, as well as Nightmare Before Christmas in 3-D. I also purchased the final season of Veronica Mars and cried as I watched potentially the last new Veronica Mars material ever to be written in the season 4 pitch. I haven't bought Spider-Man 3 yet, but that will come.

Hopefully now I've broken my writing drought and will have time to write more frequently.
