  • Creature from the Black Lagoon

    So, there's the new show in Universal Studios Hollywood.  That stage that used to be for Fear Factor, Spiderman Rocks (which was awesome btw... he tore off his own shirt.  :D  Just greatness there), um, I can't actually remember what was there before that (which is a travesty on my part, because I should know).  Anyway, yesterday, I went to USH just to watch it. 

    I did actually ride the tram - the girl we had was horrible.  I mean, absolutely horrible.  She couldn't get the clips up, she couldn't remember names of movies and actors and even the script - dude, they read off a script and she skipped huge portions of it (sure it's not set in stone, but shit... it was bad).  And then she blames her ineptitude on the change to HD, saying they changed clips and all that... do you know what?  They didn't.  The other guys didn't have any problem with the clips and in fact, the clips stayed the same except for how it was presented.  Stupid girl. 

    But, let's see what's changed.  Construction is still going on in the backlot, but it's progressed quite far.  And the only thing I can really think of is the fact that they added different cars to the transportation department.  Oh, snap.  At Old Mexico (or whatever that place is called *is shamed that I don't know what it's called), but a tree fell over and one of the houses is ruined.  I'm pretty damn sure it wasn't like that before. 

    The show... I went in there wanting to be entertained.  I liked Spiderman Rocks which is what I basically thought this one was going to be.  Like, you don't expect a freaking broadway musical and it said it was a comedy and it's all in good fun.  I thought they sang pretty well, damn well, actually.  The set was impressive.  /impressive/  It was well conceived and the production was well done.  They had a technical difficulty in the middle of one of the songs but I understood... they just barely started it in the beginning of this month.  Of course, there are going to be difficulties.  It's surprising.  It surprised me (pleasantly so).  Overall, A+.  I'm going to go see it again and record it this time.  I didn't want my first viewing of it to be marred by the fact that I had to hold up my camera.



    Then, I also watched Waterworld because it was timed just right, and waterworld is all around good fun.  I mean, the effects are awesome, you get to laugh at people in the soak zone, and you get a mini free fireworks show.  Good fun right there.

    okay.  That was my day yesterday.
