Yes Man!

Yesterday we went and saw the movie Yes Man!  Since I didn't have to work today we were able to stay out a bit later and catch a later Tuesday night show.  Plus, the tickets are discounted on Tuesdays, so it was even better!  I had been wanting to see this movie for awhile but there were so many uncanny references that I had to share:
  • Rhys Darby---he's a hilarious comedian from NZ; he plays Murray (the manager) on Flight of the Conchords, and Bret and I have watched his stand-up routine here, so anytime he was on the screen, I couldn't help but giggle
  • Nebraska Husker game---we can't escape the references and signs from back home!  Jim Carrey, on a random whim, goes to Lincoln, Nebraska, and dons a cornhead hat and face paint
  • Jim's Third Eye Blind cover of Jumper---I love Third Eye Blind, and it was exceptionally entertaining to see him sing it
  • Bungee jumping!---Did you know that bungee jumping was invented in Queenstown, New Zealand?!
This movie was cute and funny, and I loved how it tied in a bunch of things going on in my life right now.  You should go see it, just to laugh at those scenes!!!
