I was working at an Alamo Drafthouse in Austin when Olympus has Fallen came out. Used my employee discount to see it once. I used Netflix to watch London has Fallen once. And I used my second AMC Stubs ticket for the week to see Angel has Fallen. I think one viewing per film for …

The Peanut Butter Falcon (2019)
I had a plan for a couple of movies in Longview, but that went to crap when I woke up late. So, I checked the listings for closer theaters, and wound up at the AMC Lufkin, which is my usual “go to” theater lately. I had Theater 1 all to myself for the matinee showing …
IT: Chapter Two IMAX (2019)
Drove out to Tyler yesterday to see IT: Chapter Two in IMAX. I’ve had that ticket reserved for the last month, back row, center of Theater 8, because I wanted to be entered into their contest to attend the premiere. I did not win, and it messed up my AMC Stubs reservations, that I could …
AMC Stubs Birthday Gift
If you go to see a movie at an AMC, you will see the commercial for the AMC Stubs A-List…unless you’re running late for the movie. One of the perks of being an A-List member, which I am, is a “birthday gift.” I will be turning 41 by the end of the month. Last Sunday, …
Spider-Man: Far From Home – Extended Cut (2019)
After the much published split from Disney / Marvel, Sony announced a re-release of Spider-Man: Far From Home, with, depending on the source, had four to seven minutes of new footage integrated into the movie. Sounded good to me, or at least better than the re-release of Avengers: Endgame, which had a short, unfinished deleted …

Raise Hell: The Life and Times of Molly Ivins (2019)
Way back when, I used to read Molly Ivins’ syndicated column. Never did read her books, though. May seem dated to do so now, though I may look into it next time I go to the public library. Because I was familiar with her work as a columnist, I decided to use one of my …

Good Boys (2019), Ready or Not (2019), and 47 Meters Down: Uncaged (2019)
Yesterday was my day to go to the movies. AMC Stubs are good to use Friday to Thursday, and my next day off is in four days. With that in mind, I used all three of my tickets for two matinees and one evening movie. First up, Good Boys produced by Seth Rogan. I have …

Blinded by the Light (2019)
Used the third of my three tickets for the week to see 1980s coming of age story Blinded by the Light. And, as with Where’d You Go, Bernadette, I almost had the theater to myself, except a couple came in about ten, fifteen minutes into the movie. They were talking as they came in, as …
Where’d You Go, Bernadette (2019)
I reserved a seat last week to watch Where’d You Go, Bernadette at AMC Lufkin. I double checked my reservation, good thing I did. Turns out the show I had set got cancelled, and my ticket got moved to a 2:50 am show. What the hell?!? I cancelled that ticket, reserved one for an afternoon …
