30 Day Movie Challenge: Day #22

Day 22. Movie You Wish You Could Live In

This category was hard because I’ve already used a lot of movies that I would want to live in in other categories. Here are a few others that I would find interesting to live in.

  • The Wizard of Oz (1939)–Dorothy Gale is swept away to a magical land in a tornado and embarks on a quest to see the Wizard who can help her return home. Starring Judy Garland, Frank Morgan, Ray Bolger, Bert Lahr and Jack Haley. With all the magic and wonderful characters who wouldn’t want to live in the Land of Oz?? Plus I want to live in a world where randomly breaking out into song is a normal occurrence!

  • Accepted (2006)–A high school slacker who’s rejected by every school he applies to opts to create his own institution of higher learning, the South Harmon Institute of Technology, on a rundown piece os property near his hometown. Starring Justin Long, Jonah Hill and Blake Lively. This just seems like the most fun college ever!

  • Monte Carlo (2011)–Three young women vacationing in Paris find themselves whisked away to Monte Carlo after one of the girls is mistaken for a British heiress. Starring Selena Gomez, Leighton Meester, Katie Cassidy and Cory Monteith. Who wouldn’t want to be mistaken for a princess and get to play dress up in some fabulous clothes…and shoes!!

  • Star Trek (2009)–The brash James T. Kirk tries to live up to his father’s legacy with Mr. Spock keeping him in check as a vengeful, time-traveling Romulan creates black holes to destroy the Federation one planet at a time. Directed by J.J. Abrams. Starring Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, Leonard Nimoy, Eric Bana, Karl Urban and Zoe Saldana. I want to hang out in space with these two beautiful guys.

  • National Treasure (2004)–A treasure hunter is in hot pursuit of a mythical treasure that has been passed down for centuries, while his employer turned enemy is onto the same path that he’s on. Starring Nicolas Cage, Diane Kruger, Justin Bartha and Jon Voight. I love scavenger hunts! Living a real one could be really awesome!!

What movie do you wish you could live in??

30 Day Movie Challenge: Day #19

Day 19. Film That Made You Cry The Hardest

I used to not cry at ANYTHING but all of a sudden something switched and now I cry during most movies. I don’t know what happened!!

  • Ladder 49 (2004)–Follows the heroics of a Baltimore firefighter Jack Morrison, who is trapped inside a warehouse fire and his recollection of the events that got him to that point. Starring Joaquin Phoenix and John Travolta. This was the first movie to really make me cry. These men are real heroes but to see the action unfold and know what’s going to happen. Ahh it’s just too sad!

  • Stepmom (1998)–A terminally-ill mother has to settle on the new woman in her ex-husband’s life, who will be their new stepmother. Starring Julia Roberts, Susan Sarandon, Ed Harris, Jena Malone and Liam Aiken. Whenever I need a good cry, this is the first movie that I watch. It’s such a touching story with amazing, strong women. And the puppy in this movie is so freaking cute!!

  • Toy Story 3 (2010)–The toys are mistakenly delivered to a day-care center instead of the attic right before Andy leaves for college, and it’s up to Woody to convince the other toys that they weren’t abandoned and to return home. Starring the voices of Tom Hanks and Tim Allen. This ending to a great movie trilogy came at just the right time to make me feel all the emotions that the movie explores. Even though I was in my junior year of college, I still felt like I could relate to everything that Andy was going through.

  • My Girl (1991)–Vada Sultenfuss is obsessed with death. Her mother is dead, and her father runs a funeral parlor. She is also in love with her English teacher, and joins a poetry class over the summer just to impress him. Thomas J., her best friend, is “allergic to everything,” and sticks with Vada despite her hangups. When Vada’s father hires Shelly, a makeup expert, in his funeral parlor, and begins to fall in love with her, Vada is outraged and does everything in her power to split them up. Starring Dan Aykroyd, Jamie Lee Curtis, Macaulay Culkin and Anna Chlumsky. So freaking sad! I can’t even talk about this movie…it still makes me sad just thinking about it.

  • The Blind Side (2009)–The story of Michael Oher, a homeless and traumatized boy who became an All American football player and first round NFL draft pick with the help of a caring woman and her family. Starring Quinton Aaron, Sandra Bullock and Tim McGraw. I don’t know what it is with movies about families taking in kids that need a home but I love them. They always make me a mixture of sad and happy. It just shows how people really do have huge hearts!
