BOY KILLS WORLD

I went to see this movie here in Vallejo, CA, at the Century 14 Vallejo today, April 30th, 2024, an All Day Bargain Tuesday. The price of admission was $6.50. I brought my own 20 oz ( 591 ml ) of Dasani Bottled Water. And I flavored the water with a small packet of PEAK H20 Caffeinated Wild Strawberry Drink Mix.

Auditorium 13, B-6
I had to use the seating chart for 
May 1st because I was in a
hurry to get to the 
auditorium that I forgot to do a
 screenshot of my assigned
seat. The movie show
was for 10:10p.

Scene Commentaries: 

This is a very graphic and hallucinatory Funny "Chop Socky, Slice & Dice, Shoot 'Em Up" movie❗In other words, I like it! 👌🙂 👍

-

I came across many of those Stink Bugs in the Philippines. I didn't know that they were edible.  🤷‍♂️

Where did they come up with the money to buy all of those bullets?  🤷‍♂️

That fancily-dressed bad guy reminds me of CLUSTERFUCKNIA's grabber noir g.ruesome!  😠

Talk about OverKill! The public bloodbath was extremely too much!  👎

If I talk loudly like that all day, I'll probably end up with a raspy voice!  😕

The fight against the asthmatic crazy fighter was fun to watch!  😀

And so was the Anvil Scene!  😃

But I don't know how he couldn't have ever had Macarons before!  😕

Using a Food Grater for self defense is worthy of a Jackie Chan thumbs up! 👍 

Wrong target---Oopsie❗😬❗

How was the bad girl able to fight AND show text messages on her helmet's face shield at the same time---Who was doing the live texting ❓🤷‍♂️❗🤦‍♂️

"The Culling" stage show was another Blood Bath! 😳

Dang, where can I get one of those "Brass Knuckles"?  😍

"He's lost to us!" 

Talk to the hand! ✋ 

Before he went down to the secret lair, he was warned that the bad guys were armed with armor piercing bullets. So, why didn't the bullets penetrate the elevator door which wasn't armored?  🤷‍♂️

Whenever the bad girl puts on the helmet, YOU KNOW THAT IT IS A STUNT DOUBLE's TURN For Some Action!  😏

Why didn't he punch the bad guy in the balls more than once? Heck, I would have hit them like how I hit the Speed Bag!  😂 

You just don't headbutt someone using your forehead!  🤦‍♂️

The bad guy has a good idea, bleeding out the good guy's arm & leg. Unfortunately, he's using the wrong tool for the job!  😕

If he doesn't have a tongue, how is he able to yell normally?  🤷‍♂️

The last fight scene was a Grand Finale❗🤩❗ 

Dragon Punch Force.  🤜✊👊🤛

Tidbits:

It was my "Last Minute" decision to see this movie.

In my haste to get to the theatre just in time, I forgot to bring my money wallet!  🤦‍♂️

Luckily for me, I keep an emergency $20.00 in my CDL/cards wallet!

But, once again, I was too preoccupied with setting things up before entering the auditorium that I forgot to screenshot the movie's Scheduled Time & Seating Chart for 10:10 p.m. So I had to use the same auditorium's time & chart for the following day.  🙄

After the movie ended, one patron came up to me from behind and asked me if I was taking notes during the movie. I said, Yes, because I blog about movies. BUT I forgot to ask him if he would like to check out my movie blogsite. Once the credits stopped scrolling--there's a Bonus Scene at the end, by the way--I looked around to see if he was still in the auditorium with me and 3 other guests. He had already left ahead of us. A missed opportunity ....  😕

Because I was so busy doing other stuff all day like proofreading & fact-checking my old fart 👴🏼 proofreader/fact-checker's corrections & additions, I only managed to walk 🚶🏼‍♂️ 2,250 steps for 21 minutes to burn 84.6 Kcal for a distance of just 0.9 miles/1.5 km.  Piddly Stuff!  🙁👎

-------

I started another Egg Experiment using 2 raw white eggs. We'll see what happens in 24 hours or so.

I'm just now getting ready to go on my evening walk. 🚶‍♂️ 

When I get home, I'll prepare my argument against the County Judge. But I'm so impassioned for my position on the subject that if I don't maintain a civil tongue in his presence, I just might spend some jail time for Contemp of ( KANGAROO ) Court! I'll have to bite my tongue or my fiery temper will be let loose!  🤐

Gee, it shows here that "destroying evidence" 
is a Contempt of Court. Didn't bodybags
clinton do just that TWICE? So, why
was she not even charged?
SIMPLE:
Two Tier Injustice System!
Keep this in mind in cases against 
Pres. Trump & the Jan. 6xers!

IMMORTALS 3-D, R ( 1 hr & 50 min )

There are eight movie posters to choose from.  I like this the best.

where:  EDWARDS FAIRFIELD STADIUM 16 & I-MAX in Fairfield, CA
when:  Friday, November 11th, 2011
show:  11:05 a.m.
costs:  $12.00 Ticket + $0.00 small Popcorn ( free on movie watcher reward card ) + $4.75 small Cherry Coke = $16.75
auditorium:  4
seat:  4th row, 4th seat


synopsis/overview:  An evil king, Hyperion ( Mickey Rourke ), is in search of the long-lost bow of  Epirus which he'll need to free the titans to help him conquer the world.  But an oracle, Phaedra ( Frieda Pinto ), convinces a stonemason, Theseus ( Henry Cavill ), that he is the only one who can stop the power-mad king.


noteworthy scenes:  1.) The dream; 2.) The bow of Epirus; 3.) Quarrel; 4.) Disguise; 5.) Defector; 6.) Ball crusher; 7.) "Witness Hell"; 8.) Vision; 9.) Escape; 10.) "You can see the Future but you don't have the power to change it"; 11.) Tsunami; 12.) "She believed"; 13.) Burial chamber; 14.) Brazen Bull; 15.) Gods; 16.) "They're dying"; 17.) Bastard; 18.) Envoy; 19.) "The gods chose well"; 20.) "Stand your ground"; 21.) Titans; and 22.) War in heaven.

favorite scenes:  I liked Athena's ( Isabel Lucas ) first ( ahem ) scene.

I liked the Ball Crusher scene.  ( Man, I "felt" your pain; so did the rest in the audience with me. )

I liked Theseus and Phaedra's Alone Time Together scene.  ( Hey, she's from India and I'm a Yogi.  What else do you want me to say, huh? )

audience reaction:  The audience reacted mainly to the Ball Crusher scene.  Other than that, the audience was mute for the better part of the movie.

recommendation:  I liked the fight scenes, especially since they incorporated some wrestling moves.  And we know that  wrestling was pretty much invented by the Ancient Greeks.  If you're into Action movies, go see this for its fight scenes.

spoiler alert!  Wow, that oil slick sure washed off easily with just  plain ol' water.  Ah, shouldn't the body that Theseus was carrying be stiff due to Rigor Mortis?  The bowstring was not strung tightly enough because it had too much vibration in it after Theseus twanged it.  When the executioner lifted Theseus up by the hair with his left hand, he could have used the club in his right hand to crush Theseus' ribs with.  Theseus released the arrows one after the other but they all found their marks simultaneously.  You can't kill someone simply by gouging his eyes out!  You would think that that wall would have been built with contingency measures ( i.e. rocks, arrows, boiling oil, etc. ) factored in in case it was breached.  There were just a few Titans kept in prison but, upon their released, they seemed to have multiplied like a bunch of horny rabbits!  And where did all those other gods and titans come from anyway?  From what the Ancient Greek Poet, Hesiod, wrote about Mount Tartarus, where the titans are kept in prison, only the immortals can get to it because its distance from the gods' heavenly abode is twice  that to Earth's if measured from the time that an anvil falls from heaven and lands on earth nine days later ( in other words, 18 days of Free-Fall time distance )!  I don't even want to do the math on this because it would be pointless of me to do so.  Suffice it to say that it is farther than the two days' journey that the oracle, Phaedra,  claimed it to be--even on horseback.  The 3-D effect in this movie is not used to its full advantage; in other words, save your money and see this in 2-D, instead.

fyi:  The Brazen Bull was invented in the 6th Century BC, not in the 13th Century BC as the time setting for this movie suggests.

word of advice:  The gods don't help those who don't help themselves.

tidbits:  I took my Geo Metro to Quality Tune-Up Shop for an oil change, first thing in the morning.  And I had breakfast at the MacDonald's Restaurant next door to it while I waited for the service to get done.  Then, I was gonna go to BofA to get a cashier's check to pay-off a credit card debt.  But I completely forgot that today was Veterans' Day, i.e. banks were closed and there was no mail service because it's a Federal Holiday.  ( This put an inconvenient wrinkle on my "To-Do List" for today. )

I just parked my car in the shopping center parking lot in front of the local Chinese buffet restaurant while I read today's paper and checked out the movie listings, as well as the movie reviews.

Then, it was off to Fairfield for me, the place where I decided to go see this movie and the Adam Sandler one, too.

I was busy scribbling notes on my notepad in the dark while I was watching this movie and didn't realize  soon enough that my pen had already ran out of ink.  I lost about two  pages' worth of notes!  I had a spare pen with me--three, actually--but it was already too late.  Sorry ....


Special Announcement:  I would like to take this time to say, Thank You and Welcome, to my readers in ...
