Blades of Glory

Oh, yeah. Movies! Everyone at my office went to see Blades of Glory yesterday as our monthly Fun Thing to Do. We do these mainly to get to know each other... I'm not sure how well this one worked however. Going to a movie together doesn't seem to lead to very much teambuilding... I guess we should have talked to the screen more, maybe throw things...

Anyway, Blades of Glory was OK, funny to watch but you don't really take much away from it. A good movie for a large assorted group of people to go see, I guess. It did have lots of good humorous actors in it (like Jenna Fischer and Nick Swardson -- OK, I don't know who Nick Swardson is either, but he is very funny in Blades as a stalker)

Nick Swardson is a comedian. I watched waaay too much comedy central in high school (especially the marathons) and he always plays weird parts.

Thanks. Now that I look at his filmography, I'm sure that I must have seen him before...

We used to do movie nights with the crew from work, but I think it worked for us as a team building thing only because it was a "grass roots" thing.

It wasn't created to be a team building thing, it was just one of those things we organized on our own to have a little fun. The more off-beat the idea, the better we seemed to gel.

At it's peak we even had help from the theatres ... they'd give me movie posters to help promote upcoming outings.
