2012 Movie Lineup

I would consider myself a movie buff. I enjoy seeing a variety of movies, and am a horrible critic as I like 90% of the ones I do see. We go to the movies a good amount and usually rent a movie a week. I had to touch on all the good movies coming out next year.

I mean really?!? I am dying to see this.

 

It looks so good. & Rachel McAdams is only one of my favorite actors! Here are the rest of my front-runners for the 2012 year. Comedy seems to be most prevalent this year. Get excited!!

January: Contraband with Marky Mark. Yes please. One For The Money. What can I say? I really like Katherine Heigl.

February: Safe House sounds good, but I can’t find a trailer for it.

March: 21 Jump Street.

April: American Reunion. I have seen all of the American Pie movies, why stop now? The Lucky One. Nicholas Sparks book. Enough said.

May: What to Expect When You're Expecting. Looks funny.

June: I Hate You, Dad. I love Adam Sandler. I have very simplistic humor.

July: The Dark Knight Rises. I really wish Heath Ledger was still alive. Probably would have made the movie twice as good, but still a must see. Neighborhood Watch. Ben Stiller and Vince Vaughn. Should be good.

August: Rivals. With ALAN.

October: Ides of March. Ryan Gosling. I usually wouldn’t like a presidential movie, but this has a great cast and looks really good.

November: Jack & Jill. Another funny one.

December: This is Forty. A spinoff of Knocked Up.

iPHONE

My phone stinks. Really, it is horrible. I have a bad rap with all things electronic. I tend to break them. Usually very soon after I get them. Its a curse, I swear. Right now I have this Droid phone. My sister gave it to me after my lovely pink Blackberry broke (which I loved). This was her old phone, so it could be that it is just that, old, but I really hate it. It drops my calls, mutes me when I am talking, and basically does whatever it wants.

It is the first touch screen phone I have had, and I don’t even use it. This is what scares me about transitioning to the iphone. Everyone who has one loves it. Mac users literally belong to a cult. Along with Starbucks drinkers. No offense to those of you that love both (can you tell I don’t?). I am very nervous. I like all of the applications and versatility the iphone has, but the ALL touch screen thing sorta makes me nervous.

So I ask you, is it a hard switch to go from not using touch screen to the iphone? Is it really as good as people say it is? I gave Mac a chance about 8 years ago with the ipod mini and they failed me. Miserably. I have not gone back since. This will be a tough pill to swallow if it is a success.
