2013 Movie Marathon - Week 4

Hi there!! Soooooo ... yeah, maybe I got a little behind on the blogging about the movies ... but never EVER behind on the watching of said movies!! 

Week 4 found us still hanging out with Drew Barrymore from Week 3. You may remember that we ended last week with her in "50 First Dates." Well, interestingly enough, on Sunday, even after 50 dates, (and 50 first kisses), she's trying to convince us she's "Never Been Kissed!" How would YOU like to go back to high school for a bit of a do-over!? Would you do anything different?? 

On Monday, we brought Molly Shannon with us to Washington, where we hung out with Steve Carrell as Senator Evan Baxter in "Evan Almighty."  When God talks, it's usually a good idea to listen!! And if you start seeing animals showing up in pairs ... just sayin' ...
"SSSsssssshhhhhhhhhheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeppppppppp!!!"

Tuesday we hung out with Morgan Freeman again - not as God this time, but as a retired CIA agent who seems to be on someones hit list in "Red."  Favorite line this time: "Open the Pig!!"

Wednesday, we take Karl Urban with us as he transforms from uber-cool CIA operative to Dr. Leonard "Bones" McCoy to Chris Pines's James Tyberius Kirk in "Star Trek." This movie has some epic music with fabulous French Horn!! (The girl-child plays Horn, so I can't help but listen for it!)

Thursday, we spend a little more time with Chris Pines - this time not as Captain, but as King-wanna-be Nicholas Devereaux in "Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement." Anne Hathaway is cast as Princess Mia, and Julie Andrews as her grandmother, Queen Renaldi. Don't laugh, it's a cute little movie!!

Friday, we go undercover with Anne Hathaway as Agent 99 to Steve Carrell's Maxwell Smart in a remake of the classic "Get Smart." Apparently, if ever you find yourself in a dangerous situation, if you'll just kiss your captor, they'll be so stunned, they'll instantly release you!!

Saturday, February 2 (Groundhog Day), we rescued Bill Murray from his cameo in a tree in Get Smart only to have him go over and over and OVER the same day until he finally gets it right in (of course) "Groundhog Day."

And that, my friends, brings us to the end of Week 4 of our 2013 Movie Marathon. Only 48 weeks to go!!
