For Hire, Your Best Movie Theater Friend.

Today marks my second time I've been to the theaters in two years.  In the past decade, I can only remember going to the theater three times.  The first one was Swordfish (come on Halle Barry boobs.  I had to go!). Second was January of last year when I went to see Avatar in 3D with friends.  I vaguely remember a couple of people talking.  I know the friends i was with did talk a little bit during the movie.

Fast forward to today, I went to see Thor (not 3D) with a friend from work.  Who also brought his son and a friend from college.  We got to the theater, found decent seats and the movie starts.  No more than 5 minutes into the previews, some douche behind me is actually talking on the phone.  This guy did tell the person on the other end that he at the theater.  Thank you mysterious person but did you seriously need to take that call?  Shortly after that a guy in front of my was sending/receiving text messages.  Later on, another man left the room while looking at his phone.  Only to return ten minutes later.  Assuming he was taking a phone call.  Could of been something else who knows.  But come on people!  Put your phone away.  You are not that fucking important.  My phone never left my pocket when the movie started.  My friend's son could not sit still.  Luckily the college friend was sitting between me and the kid.  I was not annoyed by him.

After those few minor annoyances, the Thor experience was good.  Movie was ok.  Action in the beginning and the end with some humor thrown in.  If you do go see Thor, make sure to stay after the credits.  If anyone going to the movies but wants someone who not gonna talk or use their phone throughout the movie, feel free to hire me.  All you have to do is buy my ticket and snacks.

What surprising for me was that it was not expensive.  1 Thor (not 3D) ticket was $8.  I bought a small (large fucking drink for a small) cola for $5 and change.  No popcorn because i ate before leaving.  I spent less than $20.  Fucking fantastic IMO!

Frosted Flakes Surprise

At 4am, I pop in a movie called Sunshine into my DVD player and press play. About 30 minutes into the movie, I get a little hungry. Paused the movie, got up and went to the kitchen. Grabbed a bowl and the box of Frosted Flakes. Opened the box, ripped the bag open, pour some cereal out and added milk. Went back to my chair and proceeded with the rest of movie. After finishing my first bowl, I still wanted more. So I paused the movie again, got up and went to the kitchen a 2nd time. I pour some more cereal into a bowl and out comes this big surprise.....



***WARNING*** Pictures below may be graphic. So if you have kids, please don't let them look!












Ok so the pictures aren't scary but I wanted add a little suspense to the blog. Back to the story. This frosted rock comes tumbling out of the box and splashing into the bowl of milk. This wave of excitement hits me! Did I discover some rare frosted flake abnormal fusion? This beast had some weight to it. A shit load of frosting on one side of it. I don't know whether to donate it to science or eat it and see if I gain some mysterious super powers from it. Become Frosted Flakes man! Pouring cereal for kiddies around the world! Yes I'm day dreaming here. I snap back to reality, took it out the bowl and took some pictures because no one would believe this monstrosity.

Now I was partially watching the movie then looked at this clump of flakes fused together by sugar. Thinking to myself, something gonna crawl out of this rock and attack me. Luckily that never happened..........yet. So now this mysterious item is wrapped in a zip lock baggy. I'm saving this sucka. Show it off to the family or sell it on E-Bay. Maybe it can become my new pet. I'll call it.....Flakey!



P.S - Go see Sunshine. Great great great movie. I highly recommend it.
