Summer Movies

I'm looking forward to the upcoming movie season! From Letters to Juliet to Iron Man 2 to The Last Airbender! I can't wait for summer movies!! What are you waiting for?

One thing I don't look forward to is all the reviewers and critics who will be upset by the lack of deeper meaning in these movies or the other extreme finding some deep and hidden meaning in a movie that is just "for entertainment purposes only". Can't movies be made for no other purpose than to be watched? I understand that studios and directors and actors these days are often clamoring for their piece of the almighty Merchandising dollar - But sometimes a movie is just fun to watch. I often try to blatantly ignore the deeper meaning and watch the movie for the sake of watching the movie to be entertained. So many people tell us that movies have power - this is true - to an extent. Movies can make us think - but they are still movies. Made by someone holding or programming a camera. They would not exist outside someone's imagination if it weren't for that important piece of equipment.
So in the summer rush or blockbusters and bombs I urge you to just go watch a movie. Enjoy it at face value and for 2 and half hours ignore all else - still the best way to spend a rainy afternoon if you ask me.
