Advance Review: Friends With Benefits
As sung in Rookie of the Year, love is lovelier the second time around. Or in my case, free movie screenings are better the second time around. Last week I attempted to see Friends With Benefits but didn't get to the theater in time to beat out the other frugal JT fans to secure a seat.
Arriving at the theater a mere two hours ahead of the scheduled showtime I was confident I would get to see the flick this time.
For those that have seen No Strings Attached, this movie will seem awfully familiar--a salacious premise where two young and attractive people meet and decide to forgo the legwork of a relationship and just be sex buddies. You may ask yourself "Where's Natalie Portman?" Having seen both, this former film student would deem Benefits the superior flick. They share a lot of plot points, but Benefits is more upbeat summer fluff. Plus, it just so happens to be in theaters later this month.

The Bright Lights of Imagined Fame
Hello old friends and spam bots overseas. I apologize for not writing more recently.
Here are my excuses:
Here are my excuses:
- Twitter takes more time than I thought.
- I've replaced writing with going to the gym.
- Due to massive muscle gain and my downsizing to children's clothing, I've lost circulation to my extremities thusly preventing my posting of new quips on here.
