Finished Set It Up. It was a nice time, sadly it’s nowhere near the top slot of cheap sappy romcoms, that space is still occupied by Katherine Heigl’s “Life As We Know It”.

Im an hour and twenty minutes into Set It Up and I’m having fun. It’s the crappy but pleasant romantic comedy I wish Hollywood would make more of. 

 

What's sad is that about ten years ago it would've been a major Hollywood release that would've made about a decent $40M and likely would've given both Glen Powell and Zoey Deutch the career boosts they deserve. Such is the state of the film industry these days.

Half way through West Side Story. Good, good movie so far.

Saw Tag. Really enjoyed it. The actors had a lot of good chemistry together (Fischer and Renner were standouts), and they actually did a lot with the premise of a bunch grown-ass men playing tag. Plus I laughed quite a bit.

Fisher was definitely the MVP of the movie. She's a really underappreciated comic actress who especially excels at playing crazy chicks (like in Wedding Crashers also). Wish she would get another proper vehicle (one much better than the ghastly Confessions of a Shopaholic).

Saw Grease for the first time on the big screen.  Loved it.

Hype.

 

Ready for more Set It Up? Well you're in luck because the writer has "already come up with the idea" for a sequel. https://t.co/uBpv48ictC

I wanna watch Set It Up!  It looks fun!  I love rom-coms.  I do need to catch up on some other stuff first though.
