Hey guys! I hope you all are having a fantastic Tuesday so far!
So. Let’s talk movies, shall we? I am a huge movie buff. I love spending Friday nights curled up on the couch with a good RomCom or action flick and can never say no to that $5 bin at Wally-World, often walking out with a movie (or five.)
Of course the actual movie is what draws you in, keeps you on the edge of your seat and has you either roaring with laughter or crying all of the ugly tears, but have you ever wondered about the parts of your favorite flicks that don’t make it into theaters or onto your DVD’s? The stuff that maybe wasn’t quite up to snuff?
No way! Me too!!
Well hold on to your shorts, guys because it just so happens that I’ve been privy to some very top-secret, cutting room floor stuff.
Grab some popcorn and some Milk Duds–which by the way are GREAT when eaten together. The combo of sweet and salty will have your mouth in party mode–and get ready to be entertained!
