Watching Movie Trailers With My Wife

My wife didn't really care about the Academy Awards until we started dating, and while she doesn't necessarily track awards coverage, she does want to try to watch the best picture nominated films prior to the award show, and if possible, before the nominations are announced.

Now, certain films, are just of no interest to her and she will pull out the "I PASS" card on certain films.

So the other night we were watching some film trailers and tracking her interest of the films based on the two-or-so minute preview.

Here's her quick knee jerk comments (usually seven words or less) after we watched the previews.

• Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close: That looks good, I want to see it.


• The Artist: Is it really silent? Is it a remake? Sure, I'll see that.


• The Descendants: The could be good, I'll see it.


• War Horse: A movie about a horse, I don't know if I can do it.
