You're like an Indian summer in the middle of winter, like a hard candy with a surprise center

Since today was really a do-nothing day as I am sick, I decided to blog.

Inspired by one of the blogs I follow, Dan Barbour (http://bydan.blogspot.com), I wanted to make a list of 5 movies I want to see this fall. There will probably be others I want to see that I can't think of, but here are 5 that I know of. They will go in order of how badly I want to see them.

5. "Fantastic Mr. Fox" 11/25/09
I had read the book when I was younger (more like one of my friends read it to me), and I enjoyed it. It is also a stop-motion animated film, one of my favorite types of animated films (with Corpse Bride, Wallace and Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit, Chicken Run and Coraline some of the best I've seen).

4. "Whip It" 10/2/09
Drew Barrymore's directorial debut film. I have always liked Drew Barrymore as an actress, so I want to see how her directing skills are. Plus I have heard good things about Ellen Page as an actress (I have yet to see "Juno", but I want to see that).

3. "Love Happens" already in theaters
Jennifer Aniston is one of my favorite actresses, so any movie she's in I'm down for seeing. Plus I'm always up for a good romantic movie. And I liked Aaron Eckhart in "The Dark Knight", so we'll see how he does here.

2. "Fame" already in theaters.
A reinvention of the 1980 film of the same title, this film follows performing arts students at a performing arts school in New York. Having never seen the original, I want to go in this one with an open mind. Plus I am a big fan of musicals, having sung my share of show tunes in either choir, shows, voice lessons or just on my own time.

1. "The Twilight Saga: New Moon" 11/20/09
Sequel to the ever-popular "Twilight", based on the novel by Stephenie Meyer, this film follows Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) after her vampire boyfriend (Robert Pattinson) leaves unexpectedly, and her friendship with werewolf Jacob Black (Taylor Lautner). The book of this upcoming film was a bit boring, but I hope the movie does it justice.

So there are 5 movies I would like to see this fall. Honorable mentions go to "The Princess and the Frog", "Where The Wild Things Are" and "A Christmas Carol". I will most likely see those too.

So there you go. Will give reviews of any movies that I see this fall!

Love y'all,
