Women and the seat belt

 I don't know what it is about women and putting on their seat belt when they get in the car but they NEVER want to do it. 

It's not just my wife either. Last week I had 2 different woman from work drive with me for functions and they took forever to put the belt on. My car kept chiming over and over for about 10 minutes before they finally put one on. 

They couldn't hear it?? I don't get it. Why is this such a big deal? Is this most women or just the ones who ride with me?

I don't know and I don't get it. 

Lanterns (review)

 Finally finished this a few weeks ago, thought I'd give my thoughts. 

Truth be told, I used to collect Green Lantern back in the day. Hal Jordan is my favorite Lantern so I was interested in what this series had planned for his character. 

Boy was I stupid believing in hollywood. 

This is bad. Hal acts more like Guy Gardner from the comics than himself. Guy is wise cracking, doesn't care about who gets in his way of who he offends along the way. 

But for some unexplained reason they made that Hal in this show. 

John Stewart is a great character in the comics, but you wouldn't know it from this series. He was terribly written and uninteresting. 

And the "twists" just aren't that good. 

Oh and not that many costumes for a super hero show, but I already knew they weren't going to do something exciting and fun like that. 

Pass.

Normal (review)

 Wow. 

Fun stuff. 

Action with a dash of comedy included. Not a bad movie. From the team that brought you John Wick (which is why I watched it in the first place) you can see some moments of action inspired from those films. 

This is nothing like Wick, though it is pretty good. Worth a try if you're looking for something to watch. 

Done with movie review for now. (boy I miss my board game nights)

Feshen Up gum

I remember trying this gum, once. 

The center was so strong a choked on it. Very overwhelming, then the gum went tasteless after that. No wonder it didn't last very long. The gooey center was supposed to be where the flavor was kept but since it didn't keep, I'm sure that's why the product failed. 

Have a good weekend folks!

 

Ice Cream Man (review)

 Only because this was an Eli Roth movie I gave it a shot. 

It's a remake of a cult classic film I never watched but always saw for rent out every video store in town back in the day. 

Visually, it looks good. The Ice Cream Man himself, looks great. It's shot well as you would expect and even has a twist ending that was nice, but overall I thought the lead kids were weak and the dialogue flat. Not really worth your time I'm said to say. Around this time of year when we're all looking for a new horror film to enjoy, this one just isn't it. 

Run Hide Fight: Infidels

 The first movie was incredible. 

This isn't really a sequel to the first one, just another tale of hostages taking over (in this case a campus) and heroes trying to save them while defeating the bad guy. 

It feels like a direct to DVD sequel from the 2000s that was done on a shoe string budget and no story what-so-ever. 

Jonathan Majors is in it. And when I say in it, I mean they had him for one week on set and filmed every scene they possibly could before he left. 

They also have a weird movie track of 90s song they throw in the movie that makes no sense. I guess the director got a deal on some of his favorite songs as a kid and wanted to play them in the movie?

This movie was as absolute bore. 

It's also off the rails ridiculous. When a college kid takes matters into his own hands, then escapes to the FBI, he runs into the FBI and Jonathan Majors, is given a new gun (like they do with all civilians) and he and Majors go around shooting the bad guys while the FBI "holds back" to see what the next move is. 

Terrible movie. 

Super Troopers 3 (review)

 I can't believe I'm about to say this...but these movies get better each sequel that comes out. 

I swear, this is the best one yet. I'm shocked. 

It's exactly the kind of humor I love in a movie. Corny satire, with very witty dialogue at times. It dances on the edge of stupid comedy at times, but I forgive it because the characters are so much fun to be around. 

It's just an excellent series of films and I truly hope they have a 4th in the works soon. 

Enjoyable and entertaining as always. Worth your time.
