So for those of you who haven't noticed, Amy has done something like the last 50 blogs, so I figured I'd throw my hat back in the ring and do a few posts (especially since I'm home all day with a sick baby).
April 2012 marked the 100th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic. So naturally James Cameron figured it'd be a great opportunity to re-release Titanic in the movie theaters and add some 3D effects to it. Now up until this point I have never actually seen the movie the whole way through. I avoided it entirely (similar to how you would avoid the plague) until several years into dating Amy. Only then did I watch parts of it when it was came on TV. Amy on the other hand has seen the movie something like a dozen times so we were coming from opposite ends of the spectrum.
Well, considering all that she's done for me and Miss Bree I figured taking her to see it in the theater would be a nice treat. It would also give us a much needed date night where we can actually leave the diaper bag behind. Thankfully one of Amy's coworkers (Jess) was able to help us out by watching Bree for a few hours while we went to the movie.
Now I'm not usually a huge fan of 3D movies, a lot of times I feel like they still lean toward the cliche scenes where something is popping up toward the screen which just seems to obvious for me. Since Titanic wasn't made as a 3D movie though, they just made the regular scenes 3D which actually did well for the movie. As much as I can't believe I'm saying this, Titanic was actually a pretty good movie (I'm going to pay for this later I'm sure). The first 30 minutes or so drag a bit, but after that it does pick up quite a bit and I really enjoyed watching it with Amy. It was a nice first date night for us since having Bree and gave us a chance to rejuvenate, even if just for a few hours (believe it or not having a baby can be somewhat tiring!).
Of course now that Dark Knight Rises is in the theaters Amy can repay the favor by taking me out there:)
