Before I get into my movie review, did yall know that movie tickets are $11.50 apiece now? Well at least they are in Atlanta. Me and shawty went to see Hangover 2 over the weekend, and I had no idea they were that much, plus these b!tch ass movie nuccas talking bout they don’t take student ID discounts on the weekends (nucca, what?). I usually go to matinee movies, so I didn’t know regular tickets prices were a light bill. But I wanted to see Hangover 2, so I just went with it, but I looked at my girl like, “You know we ain’t getting no popcorn right?”

Hey, man times are hard…

Since everybody was making a big fuss about it, I went to see The Karate Kid, starring Will & Jada’s son, Jaden Smith, and Jackie Chan, in this remake of the 1984 Karate Kid classic. Will and Jada produced this movie, so you can see that you’re really keeping all the money in the family, and this kid Jaden is gonna be a star, like his daddy.

I hope everyone had a great weekend, and that you’re ready for another fun filled week on your favorite blogger’s favorite blog, known to you all as The Block. I really didn’t do much this weekend, but I did finally see the movie Twilight. I heard about this movie last year when it came out, when my on-again-off-again ex-girl went to see it, and she made such a big deal about it that she went and bought the books the movie was based off.

Anyways, I wasn’t doing much yesterday, so I finally checked the movie out (almost a year later, I know), and the joint was fuxing awesome. For those that don’t know, Twilight is based off Stephanie Meyer novels about a teenage girl that moves to Oregon and falls in love with a vampire (which is right up my alley since I fuxs with True Blood). The main character in the story is Bella Swan, and shorty is such a rider, I was about to do a Searching For My Bella Swan, but I changed my mind. I mean, I know the plot sounds juvenile and kinda lame, and the movie does start off kinda slow but it picks up and gets dope.

I can’t tell you all much more about the movie without spoiling it, but I think if you haven’t seen it, you should go ahead and make that happen. The movie has been winning a lot of awards and getting a bunch of nominations this year, and rightfully so. Plus, the sequel comes out in November, and I’ma go watch it in the theater this time. Anyways, I’ma give this joint 4.5 chicken sandwiches. And just in case you still don’t know what the fux I’m talking about, the trailer for the first movie is after the jump, and I went ahead and posted the trailer for the sequel as well.

Movie Rating:

Trailers are under the hood.

I’ve been going hard on the music tip lately, but I’d like to take this moment to remind everyone that although at times it might seem like this, The Block isn’t solely about music. I actually enjoy blogging about whatever comes to mind. It just so happens I’ve been locked into a music mind-state, but I’m going to try to get out of that for the sake of random blogging. Anyways, I went to the movies the other day and saw The Hangover, which if I’m not mistaken, has been the #1 movie at the box office for the last couple weeks.
