The Bat, the Alien, and the Amazon
As I was waiting for my plane yesterday at the Sacramento airport, I went online to see the showtimes for today's opening of "Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice". Then I realized that it had already opened, and saw that there were showtimes late into the night. Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman are my 3 favorite superheroes. I didn't want to wait another day. So I mentioned it to my tweeps, and a few of them decided to join me once we figured out what time we could go: 11:35 p.m. Yikes. But you know, all I'd do when I got home was wish that I could be at the movies, so I went for it. After some anxiety because the plane was slightly delayed, I decided to meet my friends at the theater, even though that meant that I wouldn't be able to go home and change into my new BvS shirt. I'd been looking for this shirt because I love the logo, and was really happy when I found it at Hot Topic. Oh well. I met up with my friends at the ArcLight in Pasadena, where they always have a cool display for me to take pictures. We saw the movie in 3D.

| I Love this Logo |
- I like that the film addresses all of the damage to Metropolis that happened in the previous film by the character that lost part of his legs and the buildings falling down, as well as people like Bruce being upset that Supes brought more danger to the world.
- That was a hugigant statue of Superman.
- Interesting that at one point, he is referred to as "The Superman". Like "The Batman".
- I don't think it's a fair fight if Batman has that big uniform and he's fighting against a Kryptonite-poisoned Superman.
- How in the heck did he walk in those heavy shoes?
- "I figured. The cape." (I love those long capes).
- Lots of dreams/nightmares. Bruce can really get messed up in the head. Not that the fact is news or anything.
- I never had the connection before that both of them were orphans. Clark was found, though, so he was the lucky one. I guess that's part of Bruce's jealousy toward him.
- Wait. Batman's mom's name was Martha, too? I don't think I ever knew that.
- I got excited when I saw the different symbols on the screen for Wonder Woman, the Flash, and Aquaman.
- I need to do some research on Cyborg because he's the only one out of the 4 meta-humans on Luthor's file about whom I don't really know much.
- Superman is a vampire. This is my interpretation of the end of the movie.
- Hello, Clark with the no shirt! My goodness.
- I didn't realize that Gotham was located so close to Metropolis.
- Loved seeing Wonder Woman use her bracelets and lasso!
- "I don't think you've ever known a woman like me."
- I like Jesse Eisenberg. I can't decided if I like him as Lex, though. I'm so used to everyone else playing him with a slower rhythm of speech, very exact. He plays like a rapid-fire brained evil genius, which, I guess, would be necessary for someone always being a step ahead of everyone, but I'm not used to it.
- Had I not already seen that Hans Zimmer did the score, I probably would have figured it out, what with all of that drumming. Probably one of the reasons I like Zimmer so much.
- Also, Eric Whitacre contributed to the music, and the choral portions are from his choir. Love that Whitacre.
- Hi, Jeremy Irons! I like his portrayal of Alfred, and that he gets to do some hands-on stuff by remotely controlling the stealth bomber plane thing.
- Both of the Lo sisters worked on this film! Yay! (I grew up with them).
Afterward, Arclight showed an interview with Deborah Snyder, whom was a producer on the film and is currently director Zack Snyder's wife. Hey, that's Arclight Pasadena!
I hope that I get a chance to see this movie again while it is still in theaters. Because those 3 are my jam.

Well, I was all set to take a picture of a Shamrock Shake today. But the McDonald's by my house was closed for some reason and I didn't feel like going to another one.
So here's a lovely flower at a gas station. At least there's some green in the picture.
Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Who Took The Body?
I was reading an article on the internet about some movie when I saw that Joseph Fiennes was starring in "Risen". I didn't even know that this film was being made because APPARENTLY, I'm a bad fangirl. When the Oscar season was finally over, I made it a point to use my free movie ticket at the Krikorian to see the movie.
- Interesting take from the Roman Tribune's point of view, which is a view I haven't seen before. It plays out like a detective story.
- "What are you frightened of?" "Being wrong."
- Hey, it's Malfoy! Playing a guy with the same name as his dad in the Harry Potter films! It threw me off a bit to hear him answering to the name "Lucius".
- Joseph Fiennes in a bath. I'm just saying.
- Bartholomew's answers to Clavius' inquisition made me think that if this had been a modern story, he would have been seen as a hippie stoner.
- Clavius used an hourglass and asked Lucius to wake him when the sand ran out. I wonder if I'm the only one that thought, "Like sand through the hourglass, so are the Days of Our Lives".
- When the informant was asked how many disciples: "Twelve. Well, eleven now."
- "Try the left side again."
- "You are always with me." -- Simon, regarding the scar he has, thanks to Clavius.
- I cried a lot of times, mostly due to the spirituality of the story. Also, the crucifixion itself, but that's pretty much a given, seeing as I wept throughout "The Passion of the Christ".
I enjoyed this movie for many reasons, and look forward to seeing it again when it is released to DVD.

First day catching the Gold Line from Arcadia station! Yay! We're outside! In the rain! Oh, that's hail!
The train was way crowded, but I didn't have time to wait for the next one. Nice not to have to drive very far to get there, though. Looking forward to walking to the station someday soon.

Try Everything
On Friday night, my friends and I went to the El Capitan to watch "Zootopia". No short film was shown beforehand, which made me sad, but we did get to see live animals, including a sloth. It was the same sloth that Kristen Bell got to meet on the Ellen Degeneres show. This is Lola.
I brought my new Flash Tsum Tsum. No, not The Flash. Flash the sloth. Here we are with him, before the show. Dodie had no idea that a picture was being taken, so she just looks like she's mad at us.
We also got to see Judy and Nick dance around.
I didn't get a picture of the Zootopia backdrop without the Mighty Wurlitzer organ, but it's still pretty.
We saw trailers for "Alice in Wonderland: Through the Looking Glass", "Jungle Book", and "Finding Dory." Mox was hoping to see one for "Captain America: Civil War", but that didn't happen. I guess they thought this wasn't the appropriate audience for it.
My thoughts about the movie:

My thoughts about the movie:
- I want a Carrot Recorder Pen. I saw them at the Disney Store but didn't know what they were before I saw the movie.
- "We need to acknowledge the elephant in the room."
- Finnick as elephant! So cute. They have a Tsum Tsum of that. I wonder how many kids will be dressed that way for Hallowe'en this year. Or older "kids".
- "IT'S NIGHT?!?!"
- Animals doing naked yoga. I may not be able to do yoga again without picturing that naked elephant.
- "It's called a 'hustle', sweetheart."
- The Godfather Shrew. I'm surprised he didn't have a pet cat. I loved, though, that he had polar bears as bodyguards.
- "We may be evolved, but deep down, we are still animals."
- Love seeing Chief Bogo rock out to Gazelle. I also love her tiger dancers.
- Hippo! Hippo wearing a mustache! I would totally buy merchandise of that. It's probably good that it doesn't exist at the moment (the Zootopia version, at least). BTW, I just spent WAY too much time giggling at the stuff I found when I Googled "Hippo with mustache".
- Kristen Bell must have been ecstatic when she was asked to play sloth Priscilla.
I enjoyed this movie, and I like the themes/morals. It's so refreshing after a couple of months of racist hatred in the news.
Here are the fake ads that were posted around Hollywood and Highland.
