I love Fridays. Who doesn’t, right? End of the week…beginning of the weekend…the exciting night life…
Around these parts, the “exciting night life” consists of a few bowls of popcorn and a movie the whole family can watch. My kiddos are a little older now (9, 11 & 14) and we feel comfortable with most PG and PG-13 flicks. Sometimes if we come across one that’s questionable, we’ll preview it first. Its become quite a tradition and something we all look forward to.
We rarely will go to the theater to see a movie. There are special times we will, but there are so many benefits to movie night at home:
- Its CHEAPER! (I would double bold that if I could…right?)
- You can pause and take little potty breaks
- You can rewind and answer all the “Wait, I’m confused” questions
- My popcorn is better (usually Orville Redenbacher Fat Free Butter Microwave Popcorn with pretzels and peanut butter M & Ms)
- It’s way more comfy on the couch with pillows and blankets all spread around
One of the ways we get the latest movies out there is with Movies on Demand through our cable company. With a few clicks of the remote and $4.99, we have the movie of our choice for the next 24 hours. And there’s so much more than new release movies too. I love the My Primetime and Freezone sections. Watching television on my schedule…I’m all about that.
With the Academy Awards approaching, Movies On Demand has made it simple to keep up with the nominated movies this year. (And I dont know about you, but this isnt something I typically follow or keep track of.) But on their Facebook page, you can use the How Many Have You Seen poll and keep track of what all the buzz is about. Not only that, you can enter two win a 3D HDTV for your own movie night! Check out the link above for all the deets (as well as more info on how to order movies, etc.)
