The Ring Two

Last night I was suposed to go and see "Constantine" with a friend of mine named Anna. I had no particular interest in seeing Constantine, it looked theologically empty though somewhat entertaining, plus I admire Rachael Weis's acting capabilities. Rated R, I could have gotten (is that a word?) in, however they carded Anna, who is only sixteen. We had been in the process of calling other friends Joe and Josh, and possibly Joe's older brother Jason (lot's of J's....) to see if they wanted to see a movie as well. Long story short, we ended up seeing "The Ring Two" (I would infinetly have prefered "The Pacifier") With Joe, Josh, Jason, Dan, Matt (not my brother,) and Denver whose names you did not need to know but I thought it gave it a personal touch. It was fun although the movie was very bad.
I did not like the movie for several reasons. I suppose the point of the movie was to be dark and scary, but that is one reason I did not like it. I love scary movies, but not the dark horror kinds that seem to be all the rage. I prefer intense plot and the kind of scary movie that scares you with story and what you do not see, such as "Signs" and "Wait Until Dark." It was not incredibly scary except for a few intense scenes and ideas. The movie itself was rather empty of meaning, except for the importance of good motherhood; which is hard to sift out (Spolier warning) when mixed with the idea that good motherhood, in this case, included having to partially drown her son. But she was self-sacrificial and wanted to spend more time with her son and protect him.
Overall, I had more enjoyment playing Lord of The Rings Pinball before the show then I did watching the movie. But being there with my friends made it worth it.
But next time we are going to see The Pacifier.

P.S. Still no Dale.
