Another bit of culture enjoyed

Tonight I went to see my first 3D movie (at least, my first one since, um, let's see, maybe since I was at Epcot Center like, um, 25 years ago?  Am I that old?)...

I went to see Alice in Wonderland, and thoroughly enjoyed it!  It's such a great story - so many good lines and the whole story about killing the Jabberwocky and all that. Lots of good life metaphors in there.  But it was also just really nicely done.  The colours, the costumes, the music... really enjoyable!  And the whole 3D thing is pretty cool too.

And the best part was that I had a gift card, and everything was half price!  I didn't think they had cheaper movies on Tuesday anymore, but lo and behold, it was so much cheaper than we expected it to be, and the gift card pretty much covered all our tickets and nearly all our popcorn :)  A very pleasant surprise indeed.

I saved my 3D glasses 'cause I'm planning on going in a few days with my nephews to see How to Train a Dragon, which is also in 3D.  A full 75% of the movies I've seen in this country over the past few months have involved dragons and sword fights.  I wonder what I'm supposed to be learning from all this?

Maybe you've been watching a lot of movies with your nephews. That might explain the dragons and sword fights? :)
