Pillows and Popcorn: Odd Thomas

I read the book, Odd Thomas a while back with my book club and we vowed to watch the movie together, but we're busy people so Todd and I gave it a go.  It's very close to the book, and so I thought it was pretty fun.  Netflix describes it like this:
In a California desert town, a short-order cook with clairvoyant abilities encounters a mysterious man with a link to dark, threatening forces.

That pretty much sums it up.  So if you're not into weird ghost stories- this movie and book are not for you. We liked it though, so if you a fix in your supernatural barometer, give it a go.

Word to the Wise

Me: Lucy, why do you have black tights on?
Lucy: Because I'm a Ninja
Ava: Do you want to be a Ninja when you grow up?
Lucy: No!  A princess!

That's how we roll, people.

Pillows and Popcorn: The Secret Life of Walter Mitty

Redbox sent us a free movie code last night so we picked up the Secret Life of Walter Mitty. Lindsey hadn't remembered hearing anything about it but I did, knowing we would enjoy it. We do like Ben Stiller, though we were about 20 minutes in before we finally remembered his name. Lindsey just calling out random names until we gave up and just googled it.

We really liked the movie and recommend it.
Lindsey and I frequently watch a movie at the end of the day to unwind and to relax together. We want to share our thoughts with you so be on the look out for more to come.
