Another day in paradise

A friendly reminder: if you put up 1 finger but say 2, I'm going to ask you to repeat how many. Please don't sigh or roll your eyes. And please don't put up 1 finger again while you repeat "2" with an attitude.  

Shout out: Dear old man seeing Monsters University with your grand kids, nice job. When you did your best roaring, monster impersonation out in the parking lot not only did you scare your g-kids but you scared the bejeezus out of me. I salute you. 

And now for my favorite part...

Movies we don't have: 

In the End
Midnight Express
Z
Planet Z
The Magician
This is how it ends
World War A 

And the award for best title of the week goes to... Drum roll please... 

"the one with the people walking"

An ode to you, the customer


Some friendly reminders:
  • Pick a movie before you come to the theater. There are phone numbers you can call, websites to check and apps to download. Many ways to "know before you go" Save yourself from standing there with a big dumb look on your face as you scan the movie board. Ain't nobody got time for that.
  • Get the title right. You checked it before you came, right? Just remember it and say that title.
  • I'm not a mind reader. If you're standing alone, don't expect me to know that your brother and his two kids are joining you.
  • Also, tell me if you're a senior. I'm not going to assume you're old as dirt unless you tell me you are old as dirt.
  • Take your tickets when they're given to you. I don't want them. Plus you need them to get in.
  • Finally, don't be a dick. This is really a good life rule too.

My favorite part of the day... Movies we don't have!
  • You can't see me now
  • The Illusion
  • Safe Earth
  • Now that you see me
  • Now you've seen it
  • You can see
  • See me now
  • Ironhead

B3

Every night I play a few games of Bingo to relax me before I settle in. Now, anyone who has actually played bingo with me knows that this is the opposite of what happens to me when I play. I get riled up and flustered pretty easily. My face gets red. My heart races. Anxiety sets in as I wait for my numbers to be called. 
So why then does playing before bed calm me down? 
Looking back at my childhood, I have countless memories that pertain to bingo. Whether it was family game night, where we played for nickels and quarters and took turns cranking the wheel, or it was going to watch my mom play bingo at local churches, bingo played an important part in my life. Danny's nickname is even B3! That's mostly because it annoyed him and me being the great big sister that I am couldn't resist the chance to annoy. 
So I guess it makes sense that happy memories from days of yonder would have a peaceful, calming affect on me. 


I still get pretty pissed though when I don't win.

&#@%!

Due to a combination of watching Inside the Actors Studio and some events that occurred today, I got to thinking about my favorite curse words. 

Here they are in no particular order:

  • Prick (This is my FAVE.)
  • Dick
  • Dickhead
  • Shit
  • A-hole (is it still a curse if I don't really say ass?)
  • Tit (Did you say tit?)



I thought this seemed fitting too to add :

Where's the bottom?

Here are the movies we are NOT playing at the theater: 

-Before Earth
-Now I can see you/it
-Now see this
-Now you still see me
-You see me now
-Magicmen


And now for the quote of the night... 
When asked to sign the bottom of the receipt, the spot where the X is, "where's the bottom?"

The Ville. Nuff said.

Here's Johnny!

I've been watching a lot of classic movies lately and here are my thoughts in no particular order:


  • Jack Nicholson was one hot piece of ass. Being that hes a creep and half now (womanizer and whatnot) and for as long as i can remember him, i was shocked to see him ooze sex appeal. I totally get why women flock to him even now at his age. I'd wanna bang him too!
  • Um...I like movies.
  • OK, so this is basically just going to be about Jack. He was already friends with Roman Polanski before 'Chinatown' so he was around during the Manson family killings. He was even in the courtroom during parts of the trial too! Swoon!
  • Hes shirtless plenty in 'Chinatown' and I don't mind, not one bit.
  • He reminds me of my fave Leo D. and they did 'The Departed' together.
  • AND hes from New Jersey!
I think I'm going to start trying to watch all of his films. A Jack (off) marathon :)

What's your favorite Jack Nicholson movie? Respond in the comments!
