Movie Flashback

This summer, I thought it'd be fun to rent netflix. I had the intention of lots of movie watching. Surprisingly I really haven't utilized it like I thought I would. Needless to say I will we stopping our membership soon and just try out the Red Box for $1 a movie at the grocery store, since we really don't watch that many movies.

So I thought it'd be fun to go back and watch some movies that I recall enjoying in my young days. So I put Freaky Friday, and The Parent Trap on my list. The Freaky Friday I liked, was not the one with Lindsay Lohan, I recall one made previously that I liked. Well, I put the other one of my list, just quickly glancing. It came, and today I watched it. I guess I should have looked closer because it was one from 1976, which was not the one from my childhood that I remember. As I was looking for the one I remember, apparently it doesn't exist. So just maybe it was the one with Lindsay Lohan that I remember liking and I just didn't want to admit it to myself. I dunno... The newer one was made in 2003, and I felt pretty confident there was one made in like the 80s or 90s, but not that one from 1976. Perhaps I made a movie up in my head...haha.

I did enjoy the one from 1976 though. It was funny. I look forward to getting The Parent Trap next. For some reason that was one of my favorites to watch. haha. Again, not the one with Lindsay Lohan, but the older one. Although I enjoy the newer one, I look forward to watching the older one, its been a long time since I've seen it. Kind of weird that both those older movies were redone years later with Lindsay Lohan. haha.

So that's my randomness of relaxation. Watching a movie on a Tuesday Night, very nice!

the one we used to watch had hailey mills (sp?) pretty sure it was the 70s one...the newer one you did like though, back when lindsay lohan was a cute freckly girl, and not a hooker. check and see if the one you watched was hailey mills.

I like all of them, the old and the new, we have the old parent trap if you ever want to borrow it, and the new freaky friday too.
