I can't say I ever passed by there in '89 when the movie took place, but when the movie came out in '95 my friend was dating a girl that went there. The high school is essentially in the suburbs far from the inner city look the movie portrays. A lot of kids were being bused in from East Palo Alto but that was where the real shit was going on and the movie basically takes "former female marine has to teach black kids" and exploits it. I guess I'd want to see this just to see what the reaction is like in the theater.<br /><br />Trip 2 - The Lost Boys. It's a family favorite so I guess I'd like to see it on the big screen.<br /><br />Trip 3 - Almost and Angel I guess? I've never seen it, and the commercials only ever stood out to me because it had Casey Jones in it.<br /><br />Trip 4 - Needful Things. Not a great movie but there's something about it. Plus I like the cast.<br /><br />Trip 5 - They would have to track me down in the theater, pry me out of the chair and throw me back in the time machine. I could watch every movie in that lineup in one sitting. I guess if I had to choose though it would be Pee Wee's Big Adventure.<br /><br />Trip 6 - Eh, First Contact I guess.<br /><br />I don't know anything about any of those areas or malls. Growing up, Fashion Island Mall in San Mateo, CA was home to my mall theater.Rosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05129602094443434975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-15072154515991590342017-03-14T23:29:54.055-05:002017-03-14T23:29:54.055-05:00Waterworld with Expo's game and poutine.

Elyria? A dive bar works. Also I could buy cigarettes from a vending machine.<br /><br />Hard Target. Trying to sneak a bucket of boiled crawdads into a theatre would be fun, along with a jar of moonshine. Afterwards I would just ask everyone on Frenchman's Street, "How does it feel to be hunted"?!<br /><br />Also door prizes are interesting. Full size Lance Henrikson cardboard cutouts?<br /><br />Pee Wee's Big Adventure. Try to sneak in a boiled lobster? Appropriately absurd. Also I think that's the movie a cocaine fueled Stephen King would see.<br /><br /> <br />Star Trek First Contact. Saw it in the theatre opening weekend already, but not at the Randhurst 16! Plus Bill Clinton was President. Doesn't seem real anymore.<br />Will Bensonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-20991809593765547132017-03-14T22:13:27.897-05:002017-03-14T22:13:27.897-05:002) Predator - D'uh.

My heart says Kombat, but having never seen Waterworld, fuck it, I'm taking the plunge!<br /><br />Trip 2 - Can I go back in time and tell myself to skip Predator during the Fest so I can watch it fairly fresh on the big screen for the first time? Too complicated, I've never seen Christopher Reeve on the big screen either - Supes IV!<br /><br />Trip 3 - Seeing Home Alone was one of my most memorable theatre experience - place was packed, kids were jacked - it was a madhouse in there. But I feel like me and Adam together in there would creep all the kids out, so pass - let's bear witness to the birth of "It's not a tumah"!<br /><br />Trip 4 - A chance to watch Free Willy with a Kleenex wingman? Hold me like the River Jordan, Riske!<br /><br />Trip 5 - It's a real Sophie's Choice but having never given Fright Night a proper watch, seems like the way to go.<br /><br />Trip 6 - I've only seen two of those movies and only one in the theatre and it's the one I'd pick again - First Contact. Though buying ninja stars with Chaybes might be the best option.<br /><br />That was fun - again!<br />Solhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03114869401584310369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-48096811503756459462017-03-14T17:00:31.810-05:002017-03-14T17:00:31.810-05:00Poutine > Time TravelPoutine > Time Travel Adam Riskehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01165600746796326821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-34624910177280511572017-03-14T16:42:16.507-05:002017-03-14T16:42:16.507-05:00Me too, kunider - whereabouts you from?

Since it's close to Thanksgiving, I'm getting my mom a Pumpkin scented candle from "Wicks and Sticks" and then hopefully have enough money left over to go buy a ninja star from "Hong Kong."
