Snuggly

Well as we come closer and closer towards December, and the weather becomes colder and colder, we suddenly find ourselves much more indoors than outdoors.

Its too cold to go out and hang out with friends, and it's too warm to do any "winter" activities, so basically you're stuck with being at home(or somewhere else indoors)

Which finally brings me to the reason for why I'm typing this bullshit.

It's because since we spend so much time in front of the TV or the computer, nothing sure beats watching a good movie! Whether you're doing it alone in the dark on your sofa, or whether you're snuggling under a blanket with your loved one, watching a good movie can sure either put a big smile on your face, or make you cry and eventually making you feel sorry for yourself. It's all good.

So I thought i'd take this opportunity to recommend a good movie. Actually two movies. One movie for putting that smile on your face, and one for making you cry so much that if one tear doesnt drop, you are basically dead inside.

Movie 1

Simpsons The Movie

Okay basically if you are one of those sad people who haven't seen this one yet, now is the goddamn time. And for those of you who have seen it, hopefully theese words will make you wanna see it again.

Everyone knows I'm a big Simpsons fan, so it was no shock that I loved this movie. However, even if you're not a fan, there sure is enough silly comedy in here that will make you crack sooner or later. It's so fun to see a movie which is not afraid to make fun of itself, and even with the whole "movie-goer" type. They'll make fun of you for sitting in a theater, and they'll make fun of themselves for appearing in the theater.

If you've ever seen a Simpsons episode, and found yourself giggling to Homer's wise statements, Barts hilarious laughter and Marge's whining, you'll most likely giggle at this movie too. And giggling is good, giggling is very good.


Movie 2

Crash

Yes this movie is quite old(2004), but it's still one of the best movies ever. Not only is the directing fantastic, but the script is masterfully written, and the actors deliver them as if they were born to say them. It all fits. The story takes a stranglehold on you, no matter who you are, you'll empathize with them.

This is one of the few movies that actually made me cry, and I mean cry cry. And for a movie to have that kind of effect on me, that's something. Kudos for Micheal Peña, who sweeps all the other actors in his ever so touching scene.

Watch this movie. You'll thank me later.
