Last night David and I decided to spend the entire night at the movie theater … because so many movies opened this weekend and because we are flying off to Chicago later on today, we thought it best to see at least 2 movies last night in order to get our intense desire to see them out of our system. First up, we saw the latest Channing Tatum masterpiece Fighting:

Okay … you ain’t gonna find any Academy Award gold in this film nor are you going to find any deep meaningful dialog or, you know, meaning … basically, it’s an entertaining film because it stars an insanely attractive man fighting with other not so attractive men. I can’t lie … I was entertained. The fight scenes were the best part of the film … with the close-ups of Channing‘s face running a close second. I was kind of bothered by Terrence Howard‘s performance in the film … something about his voice and mannerisms just creeped me out. But, again, I don’t think anyone will see this film for any reason other than Channing Tatum. Even after he gets pummeled in his various fights, he manages to look even better afterward. Yeah, I don’t know that this film will appeal to all … but I enjoyed the hell out of it.

Next up, we saw the latest Beyoncé film Obsessed:

This movie was a HOOT! It was so freakin’ funny … in parts that I’m guessing weren’t meant to be funny. The crowd really enjoyed it as did we … yeah, it’s a super ridiculous film that provides just what it promises — cheesy dramatic bullshizz. The only negative I have to say about the film is that the best parts of the movie (ie. the fight scenes between Beyoncé and Ali Larter) are featured in the movie trailer. You basically see all of the juiciness (and the best lines) in the trailers. If you’re luke warm about seeing this film, you might want to hold off and see it on DVD or cable. But, if you really want to have a fun time seeing a cheesy movie, this one is for you. Again, David and I really enjoyed ourselves … but not because the movie is a stunning masterpiece.

You know, sometimes movies can just be frivolous fun … and that’s exactly what we got from our Double Feature last night :)

So yeah … in a few hours, David and I make our way to Chicago, IL. We’re meeting up with my friends Sarah and Mark tonight and tomorrow and then are chillin’ in town until Wednesday afternoon. I’m excited … it’s been ages since I’ve been to Chi-town. Woot!

Channing Tatum (who started doing promo in the Big Apple yesterday) and Terrence Howard were joined by others at the Regal Union Square Stadium 14 theater in NYC last night for the NY premiere of their new movie Fighting which opens in theaters this Friday. Here are a few photos from the red carpet arrivals:

As I mentioned yesterday, I’ve got a huge soft spot for Channing Tatum and I am very much looking forward to seeing this movie. The guy is a total sweetie and you just can’t help but want to root for him in all of his down-and-out movies. I imagine there will be a lot of sweatiness as well as a lot of shirtlessness so, yeah, I’m there. Incidentally, the Regal Union Square theater where this premiere took place is the theater that David and I see movies at when we are in NYC. It’s one of those regular multiplexes, nothing special. I like how even for the film premiere Channing likes to keep it real. Woot! Can’t wait :)
