Day 2 [Challenge 1]: Your Favorite Movie

[ashlienl]

Confession: For the longest time, I never had a favorite movie. I’ve always watched the movies, most on opening night, and I’ve never missed a chance to watch them, but I was always one of those people. You know the ones, those of us who were always THIS WAS WRONG, AND THAT WAS WRONG, AND HOW COULD THEY LEAVE THAT OUT AND OH MY GOD HOW COULD THEY

I felt the same way about the movies for the longest time. I was always aggravated about what wasn't right or what they changed, left out, or added. After taking a step back, I think I'm finally able to enjoy the movies for what they are--movies, not books. They'll never completely live up to my expectations, but I think I'm okay with that.

Exactly. It was such a hard thing to overcome and accept, but once I had, I found I can enjoy the movies a lot better. They're not going to be like the books and they can't be. But I've learned to love what they DO manage. I'm glad you feel the same way I do! :D
