Kat Goes To Cinematic Titanic - Part 2, Day 2
Friday we went to my brother and sister-in-law's house for dinner (more on that later) before heading home, grabbing the tickets, and picking up Ryu. It was pretty early, so we went to the doughnut shop and picked up some snacks and coffee for the road.
We were much less delayed this time around and actually arrived around 9pm to find Schultzie hanging out in the lobby.
Yeah, we cool.
Gruber, the warm-up dude, came out about twenty minutes before we went in and handed out green cards. I got one of them, which then just rolls into this story.
The movie this time around was The Alien Factor, which also had my favorite tagline - "BALTIMORE WILL NEVER BE THE SAME". It was a lot like...a mix between Manos for the lucid plot and then King Dinosaur due to HOW MANY FREAKIN' WALKING SCENES THERE WERE. Josh even made a note on that - "It's hard to riff when there's NOTHING GOING ON."
Unfortunately, I was a bit drowsy, so I was kind of nodding off; however, I never fell asleep. But when the ending came, it was a huge WTF-moment, because it was just so...abrupt. It was just there. And I seriously thought I had fallen asleep.
For this signing, I bought a poster for the next night's movie, Danger On Tiki Island, as I decided it was the weirdest of the three. I was also wearing my Forrester and Frank shirt. Here, have another conversation:
Josh: Hey, you guys are back!
Kat: Yeap, and we have frieeends. *motions at Ryu and Schultzie* Anyway, sorry Trace, we didn't go to El Taco Grande...
Trace: Huhwha?
Kat: Though my mom thought you were and...freaked out...
Josh: Yeah, that's mothers for you...
Trace: ...Hey, you're wearing the Push the Button shirt. :D
Kat: Yeah uh, he - *pokes Tom* - got this for me for my birthday. And I forgot I was wearing it. And I told him to hide me.
Trace: *laughs* So it's...your birthday?
Kat: ...A month ago.
Trace: ...Well, I wrote it on your poster.
Josh: August, huh?
Kat: Just a month, we can fudge it, right?
Josh: Right.
Mary Jo TOTALLY remembered us, which was about the coolest thing ever. Then Joel thought I hadn't changed t-shirts. And of course...the Canadian Coincidence. I will never forget that face.
Ryu drove us home, since he commented that I "look like shit", then panicked in order to make it not-insulting to me. We were also hungry. So we went to IHop. At 2am. Hell yes. Nutella crepes rock.
Swag for the night:
