I have 3 pretty "big" books to read and 4 movies! I go a bit insane in a library!! I need to get started on one of those books! I was surprised at the number of DVD's the library has and some are fairly recent but those are hard to get. You can reserve them and get in the line!

Oh, that's cool about reserving the movies. I did not ask about that at my library, but I will. I can definitely see myself getting a little crazy at the library, hehe. I like that I can walk to mine as well. If it wasn't so cold today, I go now and get more movies.

Mine is not within walking distance but is on the way to downtown probably around 5 minutes. Sometimes I park there and after I get my library items, I walk the couple blocks to downtown.

I think I will watch a movie now!

Watched Avengers Infinity War. It was great! I liked Peter Dinklage being cast as the giant! Now I am waiting in line for the very first Avengers movie I hope a new gets made soon cause that really ended on a cliffhanger.

Just watched The Revenant. What an incredible movie! The library called and emailed that the first Avengers is now available so I will go get that tomorrow. They are open 1-5 on Sundays which is awesome!

Excellent acting. A very bitter sweet story.

My kind of movie.

My kind of movie.

It's a very sad but realistic film. I thought that Donald's acting was outstanding and I watched it a second time.

Julianne Moore played a woman diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer’s and that was really good/emotional as well. The name of the film escapes me at the moment.

ETA: Still Alice

I saw that film. Julianne is one of my most favourite actresses.

That sounds like an interesting movie. I remember seeing trailers on TV for Still Alice. I will add it to my list!

It's a very good film.

It's a very good film.

Ogo! I've found it on Youtube (in translation) in decent quality (i decided, it would be hard for me to watch it in English right away). It seems interesting, yet sad. I can watch it tomorrow, after work, if my shitty boss doesn't eat me alive, lol.

It really is worth the watch. JM is also an outstanding actress.

Thanks for the advice. And yes, i agree: i saw JM in 4, maybe 5 movies,- she's very, very good.

As soon as my food is ready, I will be watching the first Avengers that I picked up today!

Re-watched “The Force Awakens” and “The Last Jedi” with my kids on DVD. Nice.

 

[Chryssie]

The Avengers was awesome! I have enjoyed all three of the series very much! I have 2 more movies to watch before they are due back at the library Tuesday. I think I won't watch one tonight as I have to get to bed early.

I liked Peter Dinklage being cast as the giant!

As far as I understand, his figure Eitri is supposed to be the King of Dwarves. It’s great they made him huge in the movie.

I love Peter Dinklage, have admired him for a long time since first seeing him in “The Station Agent”, even more since hearing he has been vegetarian and now vegan for many years ...

 

[Chryssie]

Time for more DVD's! Last night I watched Prometheus, the prequel to Alien. Though I had read reviews that said this sucked, I thought it was pretty good. Now I have to watch the Alien movies again! This morning I watched Money Monster which stars George Clooney and Julia Roberts. It was really good though I never heard of it! Now I am off to the library to find some more movies!

The only thing that kept me watching this film until the end, was Diane Keaton, one of my most favourite actors ever.
