I'm not a big fan of romantic movies, but I do love the Notebook. My dad, for some reason, is a huge Nicholas Sparks fan. When I went to my parents house over the weekend my dad was reading: The Choice. However, I'm going off on a tangent.

Two questions:
1) Are you gong to watch it?
2) Why are they not advertising here, it's better than that creepy "Brothers" movie?

I usually want to read a book before watching the movie so I may have some work to do.

I think that the Noteook was a pretty good story. I thought that it was going to be much more of a traditional chick flick from all of the references that were made of it before I saw it.

More importantly, the show Dear John was really funny... especially the character Kirk.

I agree - I always read the book first. I loved the tv show Dear John but it is nothing like the movie. I have read all of NS books but I haven't read this one yet. Let me know how it goes. I am not a traditional chick but will catch a good love movie here and there because I am not ashamed to say I am a ROMANTIC

I won't go out of my way to see it... but that is so for almost every movie.

If it eventually comes on cable or a woman wants to stay in & watch it then I would be game.

NS books always with the msg of love triumphing over all. All of them end so badly! After watching "Nights of Rodanthe" I was disapointed in how it translated into a movie. Don't plan on going but may wait for the DVD.

I definitely want to watch Dear John ( love the story).
And about movies that had moved me so far: If Only ( sad, but such a powerful message at the end) Dorian Gray ( one of my all time favorites) V for Vendetta,....and many many many more, i am a cine-maniac hehe.

The majority of the movie was great. It was suspenseful and cute, and you were just entranced.

... but I really expected the ending to be better. I never read the book, but both my friend and I left the theaters unsatisfied and annoyed.

I'm not saying don't see it, just giving my opinion.
