CD Release Party May 9, 2008

I got so drunk at the show that I am not sure I remember most of it. What really sticks in my mind is that the people I thought were my buddies left me in some random parking lot in the University District. A, C, and M are not on my friends list right now.

The show was fun. There were a couple cute women there. AMY, SEAN, and RILEY rocked like usual.

 



If I owe anyone an apology for something I may have said that I don't remember, Sorry.

Free Comic Book Day May 3, 2008

Today is Free Comic Book Day. Comic book shops give out some free comic books today. I think this is the 3rd or 4th annual event. Comic book companies print out some special comics for the day. Shops give out some overstock.

I am in the movie theater. I thought I was going to see Matt in the theater but since I did not run into him, I am going to a second movie. Which means that I will probably miss Free Comic Book Day. Depending on how long the second movie is depends on whether I will make it to the shop. I managed to make it to the comic book shop. I picked up a free comic for my father.

Pre Movie: Harold and Kumar 2

I am going to sneak into the movie. I paid to watch IRON MAN.  I like to watch two movies for my dollars. I have the day off.

The first movie was hilarious. The poster asking what would NPH do is great. NPH = Neil Patrick Harris.

IRON MAN

I watched the 12:15 showing at Pacific Place in Auditorium 3. Good crowd in the theatre. I sat 3 or 4 rows back. Good movie. Enough humor especially with the guy from "The New Adventures of Old Christine", who worked for Strategic Homeland Information Enforcement Logistics Department (I think that is the words they used for SHIELD).

Jim Rhodes was good. And we did get the homage to WAR MACHINE.  "Next time, baby."

Stane was the main villain in the movie which was good. They kind of killed him off so I doubt he will make a reappearance. Which is kind of bad. They allude to his demise but they don't say he died. I guess he could come back but it is very doubtful. In the comic books he took over Stark Industries and made it Stane Industries. I was hoping for something like that. Stark then rebuilt Stark Industries and eventually bought out Stane Industries from under Stane. Putting Stane in a suit was a good idea. The end battle was well done.

Especially important was the fact that Tony left one of the bad guys to the crowd of villagers that the villain was going to kill the men and take the women and children.  Tony killed a lot of people while in the suits and did not seem to shy away from the death of people for a comic book movie.

Definitely not a movie for children. It had sex, alcohol, and death. But it was a guy in a suit of armor which made it BAD ASS.
