We had an interesting development over the weekend. Both of our teenage boys went to see the same movie… with different sets of friends. Being VERY independent of each other, it’s rare that they ever choose the same thing. What made this so ironic is that they were hanging with entirely different sets of friends and all wound up choosing to go to the same movie. So, half our household contributed to the insane opening weekend box office for this movie. According to reports I read today, the movie took in over $100 million. That’s crazy. Before it’s all said and done, we will probably contribute about $15 to the overall take the movie ends up with since Brandon claimed it will probably be his movie for 2008. Each year, we all select our favorite movie for the year and buy it on DVD for Christmas. It appears Brandon has an early favorite. Zach claims that it was very good, but still no match for Transformers… his pick from Christmas of ‘07.
So for those of you looking for a recommendation, that’s about as good as it gets in the Doebler household…. Ironman is in the running for movie of the year 2008.

Our babysitter never called me back Saturday… otherwise we would have been there this weekend, as well! Alas, another day…
