So I hardly ever go to the movies. Mostly because my situation makes it difficult...and also because it's crazy expensive!!!! I mean who said experiencing two hours (-ish) of entertainment (also -ish) should cost so much? I think the government should regulate ticket prices or something...
Wait. UNNY!!! Stop it already. (That's what I get for leaving the room with my laptop still on)
Anyhow, Saturday I had the opportunity to go to the local budget theater, so I enjoyed a double feature. It included Now You See Me and Iron Man 3. I have to say, I was quite pleasantly surprised. Now You See Me was fast paced, unexpected, and I didn't figure it out before it was over. That's always a plus. It made me laugh a few times as well. I think I'll have to watch it again when it comes out on DVD and see if I can catch on to a few of the tricks. Pretty fun. :)
On the other hand, I went into Iron Man with a chip on my shoulder. I love the character Tony Stark, but I haven't really enjoyed the other two movies because they're so violent. I'm not into that. This one was witty, clever and intriguing without a lot of gore. The movie kinda draws engineers because of all the innovative inventions. But you know what happens when engineers go to the movies?
Yep. That's me in the middle. The popcorn and soda was really top notch! AND I got free refills :)
"That's so unrealistic! Tony's suit would've shattered on impact with that landing, and let's not even talk about what that sudden stop would've done to his internal organs. STOP TRIFLING WITH CONSERVATION OF MOMENTUM, HOLLYWOOD!"
