The Fighter and The Bachelor

Last night I saw The Fighter and LOVED it.  I knew nothing about this movie other than it stars Mark Wahlberg, and that was enough to get me there.  Turns out it's based on the career of former boxer Micky Ward who grew up idolizing his older half-brother, Dicky Eklund (Christian Bale), a former boxer who struggled with drug addiction and later trained Micky to a World Championship.  The acting is amazing, especially by Christian Bale who is hard to even recognize.  I absolutely recommend seeing this movie, great for a date!

Now on to The Bachelor...if you are a fan like me, you know it premiers tonight, and you know that Brad Womack is coming back for the SECOND time as the bachelor.  He is infamously known as the first bach to not choose either girl and left all viewers completely confused.  Because the first girl to get out of the limo gets sent packing, right?  Or wait, they must have switched it up like they did that one other time...

But no, the commitment phobe just wasn't feeling it.

A few seasons ago, I discovered Reality Steve who has a blog based off his inside scoop.  He will tell you down to every detail what is going to happen on each episode, as well as what they wont show you and don't want you to know.  It was hard for me to not read it but it definitely took part of the fun out of watching.  This season I'm going to try and take each epi as it comes and I cannot wait to see how it unfolds!
