The Bounty Hunter Screening ~ Pictures

After the Bounty Hunter screening we chatted with Gerard Butler for a bit. We just wanted to say hello and tell him we loved the movie. After hugs and a "Hello Darling," he was the one who asked us if we wanted to take a picture! LOL! Always a sweetie!

The Bounty Hunter Screening

Tonight I went to a screening of The Bounty Hunter. I vaguely remember the first 10 minutes because someone walked in just after the lights went out and sat down about 5 or 6 rows directly in front of us!

Firstly, I have to say, I wasn't particularly interested in the storyline. But of course, since Gerard is in it I was excited to see the movie. It was better than I had expected! The movie was very funny -- laugh out loud funny! The audience was mixed men/women, mostly twenty-something year olds. Surprisingly, men laughed the loudest in the funnier scenes. I thought Gerard and Jennifer worked great together. No slow parts and it had a fair amount of action.

I will give some spoilers away... that "hickey" on Gerard's neck that everyone wondered about in the set pictures... it was really a mark from being tasered. Nice white towel scene by the way! One last thing... He doesn't wear that awful blue plaid shirt in the entire move. You will love one of the shirts he does wear, OMG so funny!

I have to see it again! Too funny!

67th Annual Golden Globes

Congratulations to all the winners last night at the 67th Annual Golden Globes.

No, we don't always have perfect weather in Southern California, but the stars survived the inconvenience. Personally I could have done without Ricky Gervais, I don't think he added to the show. Overall the show was exciting with a lot of surprise winners. My favorite was Mo'Nigue for Best Performance by an Actress in a Supporting Role in a Motion Picture for "Precious". She gave a beautiful acceptance speech.
