2009 Movies–WooHoo!!!
It was a very exciting weekend this past weekend. I watched the race at Belmont Park. Now, I am not a big horse racing fan, but it was quite exciting! I was pulling for Mine That Bird, and when Calvin made that breakaway sprint and pulled into first, after running dead last for much of the first 1/2 mile or so… Man, that was a great race!! Even the baby was pulling for the horses, although she was going for the one in the hot pink & turquoise silks (sorry, can’t remember the horse’s name–see, told you I wasn’t the biggest fan
.
Then, I saw two movie trailers that has gotten me way more excited about the 2009 summer movie season that I really needed to be. In my opinion, this has been the best summer movie line up in a LONG time. I honestly can’t even remember a year when this many movies caught my attention, meaning I wanted to see them in the theater and not wait until they were released on dvd.
So far, there’s been:
- Underworld 3: Rise of the Lycans
- Taken
- Push
- Street Fighter: Legend of Chun Li
- The Watchmen
- Fast & Furious—who doesn’t want to see Vin Diesel

- Dragonball Z Evolution
- X-Men Origins Wolverine
- Star Trek
- Terminator Salvation
- Angels and Demons
And we still have the following to look forward to:
- Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen
- GI Joe: Rise of Cobra
And finally, the big ones, the 2 that sparked this entire post & really renewed my already high interest in the paranormal I’m currently brainstorming:
-
- New Moon
Harry Potter & the Half Blood Prince
Now after viewing these two trailers, I dare you to not get at least the tiniest bit amped for them both. Visually, HP looks like it may be the best one yet. And Jacob is a hottie! I can already tell there will be a ton of fan girls jumping on the Team Jacob wagon this November, maybe even a few defecting from Team Edward’s camp.
