The Muppets
I saw this movie today and as strange as this might sound I can't decide if I like it or not. There were things I like and things I didn't like. I didn't really laugh that much though in my mind there were a few scenes I thought were funny. The Muppets were apart of my childhood but it's not like I was a huge fan. I never saw the original Muppets Show from the 70's or the first movie but I did see The Muppets Christmas Carol, Muppet Treasure Island and Muppets from Space which I think are probably better than the new one despite being underrated. Though probably I wasn't entirely focused at the time. For the past couple of months I've had a few worrying things on my mind, nothing serious but I won't say either as they are personal but sometimes I think about them and sometimes I don't but even when I don't there still sort of there in my mind. I know it doesn't make sense but I'm sure it will go away in a few months. Also I had a bit of a funny feeling in my stomach though it was probably food I ate the other night and it was settling, also I get nervous about certain little things all the time and I'm an aspie so if it's weird then it's because of that. Also my Dad decided to tag along and I didn't object because I thought it might be fun but when it comes to seeing new movies I always go by myself since I don't have a girlfriend or really any friends but sometimes I prefer to be by myself. I can be a couch potatoe when I'm at home. I think maybe my Dad being there kinda made me lose focus on the film, mostly because I was sitting right next to him and I didn't have much elbow room, though if I had a girlfriend I would have put my arm around her and have more room. Don't get me wrong I love my Dad and I was happy he was with me but maybe either I should have gone by myself or more people should have come along to make it more fun. I am willing to give the film another chance because I would like to watch it alone and judge for myself again but I will wait for it to come out on Blu Ray.
That's part of the reason why I always see movies in theaters by myself. That and it's cheaper and I don't have to worry about anyone else's schedule but my own. If I see a movie with someone else, it almost always has to be a movie I've seen before. That way, my focus isn't going back and forth to the person I'm with and to what's happening on the screen.
As for The Muppets, I personally loved it.
