I can’t wait to go home. It has been a really tough day. What are you up to this weekend, Emma?
I’m planning to watch a movie with my family. Nemesis War is showing this weekend.

Cool! I would like to watch movies too, but I have to stay at home to help my mother. I heard there are lots of new movies these days. Do you always watch movies?
I don’t frequently go to the theaters, but I watch movies once or twice a month. It also depends on what movies are showing. I like action movies and historical drama.

I’m into sci-fi and mystery movies. I like unpredictable plots. It’s fun to guess what will happen to the characters.
I totally agree with that. Anyway, Nemesis War has great reviews on most entertainment websites. I hope it will “live up to the hype”!

Thanks, Ron. I hope we could watch a movie together next time. It will be my treat.
