Steph:  Oh my god! That movie was so good!

Em:  That was the perfect Friday night movie.

Steph:  Totally! I’m glad that we saw it on opening night too.

Em:  Me too! It was a little hard finding a seat, but I loved it. It was great, totally worth it.

Steph:  Have you seen the original?

Em:  No, I haven’t. Have you?

Steph:  I saw it, but it was so long ago that I totally forgot. I do remember being really scared by the original though.

Em:  Really? Do you think it was scarier than the new one?

Steph:  Definitely, the original was definitely scarier. This was more funny and I totally laughed! Oh my god! I couldn’t believe it! I laughed at a movie!

Em:  I know. It was the perfect, perfect movie to go to. Fully entertaining, but important too. I think it raised some important questions.

Steph:  Definitely…definitely. Kind of makes you scared to get married.

Em:  Scared, well, I dunno about that. I think that, I dunno, I think that it just raised questions about the female roles in a marriage and what the woman should do and if the woman should make the man happy. That kinda stuff.

Steph:  Yeah, definitely. I know that after I get married I’m going to start baking dozens upon dozen of cupcakes…
