Here’s the thing. Neither of us wanted to see this movie. And yet we did.
Personally, I am furious that they’re rebooting what is essentially the perfect adventure movie. But Hollywood is reboot city these days and I guess they had to hit on something I love eventually. Betty wanted to be an archaeologist until she was twelve, so she has specialized knowledge of just how badly they messed up.
So here’s what we decided to do. We saw the movie. I popped open a bottle of wine, Betty poured herself a stiff, hard lemonade and we bitched about it over messenger for your amusement.
Sierra (me) is blue, Betty is grey. Also good descriptors of our moods. Is grey a mood?
