Oh my goodness gracious, how to spend hours of time and not realize it has gone by!
I refer to the new electronic NEWSWEEK that came up on my iPad today, the first since the last printed one came out last week. Have just spent hours in it and not read or looked at all it has to offer Yet!
A lot of time, of course, was spent learning how to get around in it. Am compelled to believe if it were in print it would be a thick as a book, what with all of the additional in depth articles and photographs and videos. The print magazine lacked these videos.
Anyway, I am here to speak of movies, and this new Newsweek shows photos and synopses of the FIFTY (50) main movies that are scheduled for release in 2013, and of the 50 there are only FOUR (4) I would want to see!
Woe is me! What were the 4? Let's see if my creaky old memory will cough them up, as it were. Well, one was the 2nd movie about The Hunger Games. I forget the name, but if you are familiar with the books, you will know what I mean. One was a new movie about OZ, as in The Wizard of. Same place, different story. I gather no Dorothy, but I am not sure. One was the 2nd movie (there are to be 3, did you know?) about The Hobbit. OK, that amounts to 3 movies coming up this year about books I have read and loved, though why in this world The Hobbit requires more than one movie to tell the tale properly, I cannot imagine. Whoops, I cannot remember the 4th and last movie that made my list, but next time I find I have the time to spend time in my new electronic Newsweek, I shall report back.
