I have been a Netflix subscriber for a few years now and I have loved it. For those of you who don’t know what Netflix is, it is like a Blockbuster Video Store through the mail. Depending on what package you get, you can receive from 1 to an unlimited amount of movies per month. The price, ranging at about $6.99 a month for me, is a pretty decent price. They always ship really fast, so you don’t have to wait a very long time. Another good feature for Netflix works if you have Xbox Live for your Xbox 360. There is an application on the Xbox 360 where you can watch any movie on the Instant Queue. If you have a decent Internet connection speed, then the quality is really good, especially if you use HD cables. This is a really great service and if you don’t like buying movies or going to the video store, I strongly suggest you use Netflix.

Last night, me and some friends went to go see the movie, Ghost of Girlfriends Past. It looked funny and good when I first saw the trailer. The movie was really good and funny, but at some parts, were really sad. As much as I don’t want to admit it, I cried. All in all, it is a good story line, great acting, and a movie you have to see. If you are going to see it, try to see it by yourself or with friends because some of the parts in the movie are very awkward to see with a family member.

After seeing all the trailers, I finally got to see Angels and Demons on its opening weekend last Saturday. Me and a few friends went to go see it and it was really good. If you are into those historical type movies with puzzles, you will love this movie. If you have seen the DaVinci Code, it is like that except 10 times better. The basic story line is that when Pope John Paul II died the secret society and cult known ass the Illuminati decide to get their revenge on the Catholic Church. They kidnap 5 Cardinals from Vatican City and brand them with the 5 signs of the cult and then attempt to kill them. There is a lot more to it, but I am going to leave you to go see it for yourself.

The day after it was released, me and 2 of my friends went to go see Star Trek. Now, if you are a big Star Trek fan, it would take a lot for it to be as good as the original TV series, but it gets pretty darn close. This has to be one of the best movies I have seen in a while. I like how they kept a decent story line throughout. There was only one part I was confused about, but I don’t want to spoil it if you haven’t seen it yet. This is a movie I think non-Star Trek fans would even enjoy. So if you haven’t seen it yet, go to the theater now!
