Who says all the good movies come out during the summer? You may remember that I posted earlier this year my most anticipated movies of the Spring/Summer and most of those movies were a flop. So here's a list of movies that I'm looking forward to for the rest of 2014. 

It's been almost two years since Jenn and I watched the first season of Homeland. It was one of the best first seasons of a show I've ever watched. In a lot of ways it hit all the right beats. It had a level of suspense, character development, and twists that isn't something you'd expect in the first season of a TV show. Homeland had a lot to live up to on Season 2. 

I think my taste in movies is changing. I used to be all about the big summer blockbuster. I still get pumped for them. But I always feel shortchanged. A part of me just wants more from a movie. Make me think. Make me feel. Take me on a journey. Well Boyhood is just the movie I was looking for. Before Jenn and I went to see the movie we walked over and had a great sushi dinner at Blue C Sushi in Fashion Island. We then walked over to the luxury Island Cinema and caught our movie. 

My dad loves Planet of the Apes. Growing up I watched the Charlton Heston movies all the time. I remember even thinking as a kid how neat the concept was. It was kind of my first foray into science fiction. So I've got a deep love and nostalgia for the franchise. 

It's very rare that I come out of a movie completely deflated and disappointed. I almost always avoid poorly reviewed movies but the trailers for the Scarlett Johansson led movie Lucy made me second guess it. 

Jenn absolutely loves Downton Abbey. Kind of crazy that one of Jenn's favorite shows is a PBS show but in all honesty I love Downton Abbey as well. Who wouldn't love Mr & Mrs Bates? Or the very witty Mr. Carson and Lady Crawley. The cast of Downton Abbey is absolutely fantastic and makes for one of the best shows on TV.
