It was a Friday afternoon, and I was sitting at work wondering what my night was going to bring.  Was Jason going to come out and try to kill me since it was Friday the 13th?  Or was I going to go to the shop and hang out all night.  Turns out neither happen.  What did happen was Tandy giving me a call and asking me to go see The Expendables.  I convinced her after seeing The Expendables we would go see Scott Pilgram. This is exactly what we did, well with a visit to Waffle House baked in the middle.

The Expendables looked ridiculous from the first time I saw a preview.  But also from the preview I knew it was a movie I had to see.  With Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, Jet Li, Steve Austin, and Terry Crews how could I not see the movie.  Yep all those action stars in one movie.  Can you believe it?  So many action starts how could this movie be bad?

The movie wasn’t so far as bad, as it was just ridiculous.  It was a mid 90′s action film.  You know the ones with tons of killing, helicopters exploding and a plot that came from the back of a cereal box.  That was exactly what this movie was.  There were some great comedic lines, don’t get me wrong, but really the movie was kill kill kill, take short  break, kill kill kill.  I still liked the movie, but only because I love Mid 90′s action films.

Rating:

P.S. Sadly no Steven Seagal

Tandy and I went to see this movie in VIP at the Monaco.  Everyone told me how great the movie was, and I figured I might as well spend the extra money and see it all comfy in VIP.  Just an FYI tickets for VIP on the weekend are $14. So the movie was good, I’m not going to go and say it was awesome, but it was very good.  I might spoiler some things so click more to read it all.

Tandy and I went geocaching Friday.  I printed out 8 caches that were around the Thornton Research Park area.  After spending a few hours searching for them, we ended up only finding 3.  The others were all hidden bison tubes and neither of us knew what a bison tube was, so we ended up not even looking.  It was such a great day out geochaching just made it that much better.

After geocaching, we went to IHOP for pancakes.  Then to see Batman.  The only way the day could have been better, would have been no work.  But hey after work was great.
