I just got back from watching The One with Nien and his buddies. They all thought it was horrible, but I liked it. You know, it occurred to me, maybe I just have bad taste in movies, hahaha. For instance, I liked the Final Fantasy movie too, while everyone else hated it.
Anyways, the premise of the movie really had me going, even if the actual script wasn't so good. I've just always been intrigued by SciFi / futuristic stuff, and the idea of getting stronger when your counterpart in a parallel universe dies doesn't seem too bogus for me. But I was thinking... I've heard that you're antimatter to yourself from another universe; so if you touched... KABOOM! Well, I dunno, maybe I learned that from a movie too. Oh, and I like that Matrix-style hovering in the air to simulate slow-mo type fighting... it's so fun to watch, even though it's so fake, hahaha.
After the movie, we were driving along, about to get gas, and this car full of thuggish-looking Mexicans pulls up next to us (in the right turn lane) and gives us some funny looks. We decide to go get some gas, and they make their turn, but about 30 seconds later, they show up at the gas station also. Then all 4 guys open their doors and get out of the car at the same time, one of 'em carrying a brick. At that point, I'm like holy crap! what's going on??? But then they pop the hood and just stand there, (whew) and they start blaring Toni Braxton, hahaha. Nien and I started cracking jokes about them on the car. Then, James (outside of the car) says something to us, and we hear him crystal-clear, and we're like oh crap!! if we can hear him, then I bet those Mexicans heard us!!! So we did some experiments testing the insulation, where we'd try having someone outside the car say something to people inside and vice-versa. We found out that, for some reason, sound seems to be one-way with car windows. hmmm... maybe it's cuz there's ambient noise outside that drowns out the sound of the people inside.
Ummm, we went to Java afterwards, and we saw Tommy and Don there- fancy that! Hahaha. Ummm.... we were gonna go to Putt Putt afterwards, but it was closed, so we went to Wendy's... but their drive-thru was the only thing open. So we ended up chilling in the Wendy's parking lot for awhile and then just went home. Overall, a rather uneventful evening.
