My Bloody Valentine 3D.... Baker Date Night

So Mark and I went on a date tonight! How romantic, right? .....ummmmmm....... Let's see......

We went to Olive Garden because we didn't have much time before our movie started. We thought we could get in and out of there pretty quickly. After a thirty minute wait (Grrrr) and two beers, Mark and I were seated. I consumed as much salad as I could while my husband scarfed an appetizer. Then we headed to the movie.......

Mark had the day off today, so he had the time to buy our movie tickets in advance. Thank goodness because we were able to just walk right on past the crowd that was OUT THE DOOR and head right to the theater.

This is where I have to pause to tell a nice little story. LOL.... When we were at Olive Garden, I bought Mark and I a beer. It was a little gift from my personal account because the type of beer is special. Peroni. It is from Italy. And it is the beer we drank when we were in Paris. France.... haha* I am aware that we should have drank French wine... but I think Mom consumed enough of that for all of us... haha* Either way, I thought it would be nice to buy each of us a Peroni so we could think about our honeymoon... ((And enjoy some amazing booze))....

I tell that story because neither of us got carded.... Mark later told me that no one who is a minor orders an Italian beer. It would be a Keystone or Coors Light all night. I agreed. Then Mark told me how he got carded when he bought our movie tickets in advance. Apparently, you had to be over 21 in order to buy more than one in advance.

Which brings me to my next point.... I'm not sure what kind of parents Mark and I are going to make. I hope that we make good decisions and don't jack our offspring up. Too much. I also hope that we aren't ANYTHING like the mom we saw tonight at the movie theater....

We went to see MY BLOODY VALENTINE 3D...... This movie is intense and gory (we'll get to that later) and nasty. And this crackhead of a woman who calls herself a MOM brought her two LITTLE BOYS with her to watch the movie! No joke these kids were seven or eight years old! The movie was about this coal miner gone psycho who goes on a disgusting killing spree with an ax-thingy. I wanted to poke one through this chick's left eyeball.

Let me just say that I'm really not a big fan of scary movies. Take me to a comedy all day long. I'm just not really into seeing all kinds of blood and guts and gore.... and naked chicks..... (I digress....) WHAT THE HECK IS UP WITH NAKED CHICKS IN SCARY MOVIES, HUH!??!!?.... sorry.... The fact that this bad boy was in 3D just made me poop in my pants even more. Yikes. I was scared even when the previews were playing. I knew I was going to see some crazy stuff.....

I will only tell of one part of the movie.... The killer stabs one of the victims up through the throat with the ax thingy..... (Picture the curve of this weapon going through the throat and up through the mouth.) The killer removes the weapon by pulling the ax toward him.... essentially ripping off the victim's jaw.... and THROWING IT AT THE AUDIENCE!!! AACCKK!!! That was definitely one of those points where I flinched... I'll admit it... :D

Overall, it was a good movie, yummy food and a great date night with my favorite husband in the world. :D

One last thing..... at the end of the movie, the Mom behind us made sure her seven year old boys had their hats on before they went outside in the freezing cold. She was worried that they would be too chilly outside. Now, what the hell kind of irony is that?
