Extremely Loud, Incredibly Close, & Exceptionally Sad

I just updated my Netflix queue to contain all the award winning movies of 2012. Here is the short list of what I'm deciding to watch:

Albert Nobbs (sad)
The Help (so good, I'm seeing it twice)
Midnight in Paris
The Descendants 
Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close (very sad,very good)

I saw The Help in theatres, and I recently viewed Albert Nobbs and Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close. It's very similar to Hugo...but a lot more sad. Here are the trailers:


This was the happiest version of this trailer that I could find: 


These two movies are sad...but really, REALLY good. I highly recommend both, especially the latter. 


Am I on a sad movie kick? Because before these two movies I saw this one: 




And after all these movies, I'm going to watch this one:




It seems a little lighter...and at least George Clooney is in it. 

Wow.  I hope you enjoy all this media. 

So... on to this month's challenge. 

I'm just going to say it: I've always hated Dasani. I know that the added minerals are for taste, but Dasani has always tasted kinda...salty to me. I know there is a negligible amount of salt in all water...but I don't know...I just don't like the taste. I do like how they are very, very pro-recycle. 

My twist wasn't as nice looking as the ones in the commercial. :(



And I'll end with this...fun fact: Last night I had Shark for dinner (at Boston Beer Works with my lovely Adam and his old roommate from the Fenway apartment)!
