So I have figured out why I enjoy watching movies as much as I do. (S & B think it's because I'm wierd...)
Well, that may be part of it and I'm always interested in who has done the animation and graphic stuff, so I watch the credits. But I figured it out for real.
In the movies, the main characters have no friends. Am I the only person who realizes this??? They have a sibling and maybe a friend but its usually just the people that the movie is about. Think about it...
Derek Zoolander lived with his 3 modeling buddies, but after they die, he doesn't get anymore friend until Billy Zane at the club and then he ends up being friends with Hansel. (that Hansel, he's so hot right now...)
Sleepless in Seattle. Meg Ryan has 1 friend. Tom Hanks has 3 co-workers and girlfriend.
Breakfast at Tiffany's. Holly has that one party and then spends most of the rest of her time alone or with Paul, who also has no friends, except for his "sponsor".
Flashdance. Jennifer Beales has 2 friends and 1 of them dies and she's dating her boss.
Ratatoullie (I can't spell!). The guy who adopts the rat has no friends, but has a huge crush on a fellow chef. (who also has no friends)
Maybe I'm watching the wrong movies right now? Or perhaps it's that thing where you are just really in tune with what matches your life?
See, I have friends, I just never hang out with them. So maybe my life could be a movie? Nah, there's not enough "love interests" LOL !!!!!
Exceptions to my theory inclued Dazed & Confused and Miracle. In Miracle, Mike Eruzione said "We're family!" And that movie was alright because it was about hockey!
Don't you love it when I actually post on my blog?!

The same could be said about Music and Lyrics which I finally watched
Ha! Your post would seem to imply that I do not enjoy watching movies. I do enjoy watching movies. I just may not stay for the entire viewing of the credits, LOL, and no, this does not make you WEIRD!!!
Actually, the term weird didn't cross my mind. . .you should enjoy the credits, I just may have left the theater and moved on to greener pastures by the end. . . Oh, and I feel like you hung out with friends Sat. night, or does that not count? :)
Am, I actually was thinking of Music & Lyrics when I thought of this topic, but was so tired when I wrote it that I forgot. I DO like that movie, just not a huge fan of Drew's.
Thanks S & B for making me feel better about my movie habits. It's usually during the week (and all the times on the weekends) when I do stuff by myself that pretty much led up to this post.
I love you girls!
