new blog first post.

Sam helped me create this blog several weeks ago, finally getting around to posting my comments on movies I"ve seen, T.V. shows and just about  anything else I might have a opinion on, good or bad, interesting or not.  So my first post on this blog in going to be about two films that I have seen recently. Lost week I saw "Morning Glory", staring Rachel McAdams, Harrison Ford and Dian Keaton. I enjoyed the movie. A funny look at the behind the scenes of producing a morning news/entertainment show. Rachel's character is a newly hired producer of the morning show. Ford and Keaton are the morning co anchors . I  Think McAdams character was too perky, Keaton 's too nice and Ford too angry. Overall a pretty good movie, a good rental. 
This week I saw "unstoppable"  I enjoyed the film but I think it is best seen as a rental.  The previews had you believing that the main plot was a runaway train  on a collision course with another train with 150 children aboard.  This event occurs in the first 15 minutes and the crash is avoided by simply side tracking the train to another track . The remainder of the film deal with stopping the runaway train before it derails in a big city. This film stars Denzel Washington and Chris Pine. The film has great music, it is fast paced, but a predictable end.  Not much of a plot, however enjoyable to watch.
 Well that's my first post. I know I am not very good at this, hope to improve as I go along.
