Kat and I went to see Pirates II on Saturday. We both totally enjoyed the movie but this might not be saying much.

The last three movies I have seen in the theatre are, in order, The Incredibles, Serenity, and The Devil Wears Prada. I think I see about 2 or 3 theatre movies per year. As such, I pretty much always enjoy them. There are no screaming poopy kids around, big pictures and loud music. It’s enough to overwhelm a poor mom.

Kat isn’t much better. While I like watching movies with Kat, I have to admit that the highlight is the trailers. You see, Kat has NEVER met a trailer she doesn’t like. The whole theatre can be groaning and saying “that looks horrible” and Kat will turn to me a whisper, “that one looks cute!” It is truely amazing. If she ever decides on a career change, I think she’d make a killing selling those one line reviews to movie studios. Ever wonder who those people are who say nice things about horrible movies? That would be Kat. After the clip for Bring It On – For Reals (or whatever the title was) that went straight DVD, Kat looked over and said, “gotta see that one!” And she meant it!

So with the above disclaimer in place, we both had a great time at the movie. Go see it!
