I've been thinking about movie date today. Personally, I find cinema dates a little awkward - what do you choose, who pays, what snacks do you get, the list goes on - but for some people they're just the ticket. (See what I did there?) so I'm gonna give my thoughts on what to see this Valentine's Day.
Night Out
If you're going for the classic romance film this year, then may I suggest Endless Love. I'm going to see it with my bestie for a belated Valentines next week, and it may be slightly more of a girls film but boys, that's often the sacrifice you have to make at the movies aha. We cry just watching the trailer... It's about first love, forbidden love, hidden pasts, the guy from the wrong side of the tracks, and it has Alex Pettyfer in it. Could it BE more perfect for Valentine's Day?
If you fancy something a bit more rock'n'roll, then give RoboCop a try - it's what my parents are seeing for their Valentine's date! I'm not sure how much romance there is in it, so it may be a good choice if you get a bit nervous watching lovey-dovey movies on a date, like me. Personally, I had planned to see The Lego Movie today, but my plans fell through. This is definitely not just one for the kids - we've all loved Lego in our time, and to be honest if the other person isn't interested, I'm not sure how long it's gonna last... From what I've heard about it it's a must-see; to quote Tyler Oakley, "the LEGO movie was actually incredible... EVERYTHING WAS AWESOME" (@tyleroakley on Twitter). So make your choice wisely!
Night In
If you prefer a night snuggled up on the sofa with a pizza and a film then I may also have some answers. In September, I saw About Time in the cinema, and it's just been released on DVD. It's a lovely, cosy kind of film from Richard Curtis, with great performances from Domhnall Gleeson and Rachel McAdams. Laughing, crying, cringing, it's got it all. I think this is a really good choice for dates or mates, it's a really versatile one.
So that's it, I hope everyone has/had a fabulous Valentine's!

(I spent my evening watching Nashville, Pitch Perfect and Easy A, and eating pizza and Ben and Jerry's. In case you wondered.)
