At the movies with Zack Martin

Notre Dame left tackle Zack Martin says he's something of a movie buff.

And for the trip to Ireland, the 6-foot-4, 304-pound senior said he watched the Avengers, the first Matrix movie and The Notebook.

Yep, that Notebook, and Martin isn't afraid to admit he likes romantic comedies.

"I'm not embarrassed to admit it," Martin said. "Me and (left guard Chris) Watt go to rom-coms all the time."

Martin said the best romantic comedy is Notting Hill.
