Emotion Blog 10/1

Last night I went with some friends to the movie that was being played on the top level of the MU parking ramp. The movie was Fast 5.  This is not a movie I would normal choose to watch but because I love outdoor movies and being with friends I decided it could be fun.  Throughout the movie, I had a combination of two main emotions.  I found myself feeling almost scared when the lives of the main characters were in danger.  Even though I obviously am not connected with these characters I was emotionally involved in their story.  At the same time however, there were moments when the plot seemed to ridiculous and I found myself laughing.  It is interesting to me that I can find something so unrealistic that I can laugh at it yet at the same time I get emotionally involved as if it were real.  These emotions were neither truly negative or positive.  The overall experience was positive though because I enjoyed the movie.  Even though it was super cold, I had a great evening.
