On Monday night after we finished The Departed (we’re reviewing it in work movie club tomorrow), we were looking for something else to watch. We came across The Terminal. I was like “I remember we both didn’t like this movie when it came out, but do you remember why?”
Steven said, “Yeah, we both thought it was super boring.”
Thinking perhaps we’ve changed and matured and might like it now (just kidding, I was sick of scrolling) I suggested “Maybe we should try it again! What year did this come out anyway?”
Queue me looking that up and seeing 2004 then HOLY SHIT THIS MOVIE IS 21 YEARS OLD! HOW LONG HAVE WE BEEN TOGETHER?! (Answer: over 22 years.)
22+ years of so many movies viewed together. Aww.
By the way, this movie is still… not for us. It’s so disjointed we’re wondering if we even finished it the first time.
No related photo but here’s the cats chilling with us on the couch!
A cat picture is always the right picture to use, no matter what the post is about.
We saw Mask of Zorro this weekend, and when I wrote about it, my first take was something like “we watched a movie that I didn’t want to see 20 years ago”. Then I did the math on how many years elapsed between 1998 and 2025. Um, it was not 20 years ago.
Hubs and I have been together for exactly “we can’t remember if we saw this movie or not” years, or 12 years more specifically. We also have a subgenre of “did you fall asleep during that movie?”
