13 Going on 30 follows the tale of Jenna Rink (Jennifer Garner), a 13-year-old girl who wishes to be “thirty, flirty, and thriving” and wakes up to find her wish has come true — only she barely recognizes the conniving, manipulative adult version of herself. With a sprinkle of youthful exuberance, she goes about righting her adult wrongs and reconnecting with former best friend, Matt (Mark Ruffalo).

“Jenna: You want to know a secret?
Matt: Yeah.
Jenna: You're the sweetest guy I've ever met.“

Unforgettable dialogue between Jenna Rink and Matt Flamhaff, in the movie 13 going on 30. A great read/watch!

Once upon a time, Jenna Rink‘s (Jennifer Garner) biggest problems were boys and being popular, but in an instant, her troubles turned into business and being an adult. Every now and then, a movie is released that stands the test of time, whether a drama like Titanic or a comedy like Napoleon Dynamite, and as for romantic comedies go, 13 Going on 30 made a cultural impact that leaves people talking about it to this day.

The movie is like the 1988 film Big starring Tom Hanks, in which a young kid wishes to be “older“ and turns into a thirty-year-old man one morning. In 13 Going On 30, Jenna literally wakes up 17 years later all of a sudden inside her 30-year-old self's body. It takes a whole new spin on the premise as Jenna has to get used to her new surroundings and figure out who she is now that she's 30. Beautiful movie- A must Watch/Read!

#VolumesAndVocals

I usually pick books for these prompts but since #Escape by Rupert Holmes is also known as “The Pina Colada Song” it always makes me think of one of my favorite rom-coms, 13 Going on 30 (a great escape itself) & Jenna‘s lines: “I'Il have a Pina Colada, not virgin. Wanna see my ID? Totally have it."????

“Yes, I like piña coladas
And gettin' caught in the rain
I'm not much into health food
I am into champagne…”

robinb Love the song AND the movie! 💜🩵 11mo
