Holiday movie marathon
It seems that each holiday, I end up watching movies that revolve around a similar theme. At Thanksgiving, it tends to be disaster movies or spy movies (in which the bad guys are trying to create a disaster). On Independence Day, I think I like fight'n' movies best.
After the fireworks, we started it off with the outstanding documentary about Robert McNamara called The Fog of War. After that, we continued the fireworks theme with a documentary about nuclear testing called Trinity and Beyond.
Lastly, we watched the movie Batman Begins. It was the first time Melisa had seen it, and we both loved it. But this time around, I noticed how much Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale) looks like President Bush. That added a whole new dimension to the story of a young sucessor to a powerful family who goes around the world fighting the bad guys as the caped crusader.
