Movie Night: Lion
August 5 2017:
Team TLC movie night – My choice: “Lion” …. Put this on hold at the library months and months ago. It had over 100 holds.
I say, “Incredibly moving. Full of light, darkness, and love. Absolutely beautiful that this persons story sparked a movement to help so many children.”
Thomas says, “Good, inspiring, cool, funny in parts, and not stereotypical.”
Lillian says, “Good, suspenseful, mysterious, and good music.”
Movie Night: Return of the Jedi
July 22 2017:
Team TLC movie night: Thomas’ choice – “Return of the Jedi”
Thomas says, “Good, suspenseful, and really enjoyed it. Liked the ewoks.”
Lillian says, “Good, emotional, and musical.”
I say, “It is within you. You have just forgotten.” I usually steer clear of movies with violence, yet decided it was okay to watch the original three Star Wars. I truly enjoyed watching these with Thomas and Lillian after having not seen them in over 20 years. I actually felt the same excitement I felt as a young girl watching these for the first time with my best friend, Lillie. Although they hold a new and different meaning for me now than they did then. xoxoxo

July 9 2017:
Team TLC Extra Movie Night (since we won’t be here next Saturday night): My choice – “Big Miracle” –
I say, “Great, feel good, true story. Enjoyed watching with Thomas and Lillian. Thomas has already looked up much information about the event.”
Thomas says, “It was good.”
Lillian says, “Good, liked the music, emotional, liked Kristen Bell’s voice, and awesome movie.”
Movie Night: My Dog Skip
July 8 2017:
Team TLC movie night: Lillian’s choice: “My Dog Skip” –
Lillian says, “Good, pretty music, emotional, awesome, and my favorite character is Rivers.”
I say, “Love and loyalty are all that matters. Such a great movie. And, WOW! Yazoo, Mississippi! I wonder if any of my family knew Willie Morris. He would have been a tad older than them. Saw a Jitney Jungle sign in the baseball scene. That brought back memories. Will have to look up more about Willie Morris and his books. Really enjoyed this one!!”
Thomas says, “Good, funny, and I liked it.”
Movie Night: The Empire Strikes Back
July 1 2017:
Team TLC movie night – Thomas’ choice: “Star Wars V – The Empire Strikes Back”
Thomas says, “So good that I don’t know how to describe it.”
Lillian says, “Pretty good and suspenseful.”
I say, “You must unlearn what you have learned.” -Yoda ….
“Haven’t watched these since I was a teenager. It has a completely different meaning for me now and it absolutely blows my mind the difference in watching it now, as opposed to then.
Not a fan of movies with violence, yet, decided to watch the original trilogy now that Thomas and Lillian are older. Made my solar plexus all tingly! The Force is indeed strong! So glad we are watching them!”
Movie Night: The Greatest Game Ever Played
June 24 2017:
Team TLC Movie Night: My choice – “The Greatest Game Ever Played”
I say, “To do something that seems to come from outside of oneself, and through oneself, is definitely the greatest game ever played. No matter the game. Powerful and true story.”
Thomas says, “It is the greatest movie ever made!”
Lillian says, “Good, suspenseful, funny, historical, musical, and very cool effects.”
Movie Night: A Dog’s Purpose
June 17 2017:
Team TLC movie night – Lillian’s choice: “A Dog’s Purpose”
Lillian says, “Good, great, awesome moral, 100% recommended, liked the music, and my favorite part was the end.”
I say, “Truly heart-warming story …. Be Here Now …. Most moving and heart melting line.”
Thomas says, “Great, best movie, added to the top of my list of best movies, and can’t describe how good.”
Movie Night: Star Wars
June 10 2017:
Team TLC Movie Night – Thomas’ choice: Star Wars IV – A New Hope
Thomas says: “Good and it’s weird how they used to think the graphics were awesome.”
Lillian says, “Good, adventurous, dramatic, suspenseful, liked the score.”
I say, “I’m not a fan of movies with violence so had put this off until Thomas and Lillian were older. Yet, this movie was huge for me as my best friend Lillie and I watched it over and over and over.
We had lines and scenes memorized. We joined the fan club. It was adhesive in our friendship bond. I didn’t go past Return of the Jedi, but Lillie stayed with it!!! She’s a hard core fan!!
I do get something out of the movie that I didn’t at that time. The Force has an entirely different meaning for me now.”
