The Screening Room
One of the perks of doing Scenic Fights is that we get invited to movie premiers and sneak peeks.
My first movie premier was The Killer in 2022, which I saw by my lonesome.
Then I saw Gladiator II with the Firecracker late last year.
Pac was supposed to catch a sneak peak of A Working Man with Jason Statham with his girl, but he couldn’t make it, so I took his spot.
This meant that, last week, after the kids were settled, we snuck off to The Screening Room at the Bryant Park Hotel to catch the film.
I’d been there a buncha times before since it’s close to my office, but never in the theatre.
After waiting in line…
…we made it to the theatre.
It was tiny, but clean and comfortable with large leather seats.
There were, at most, 20 people in the entire audience, which was cool.
While there weren’t mixed drinks nor passed hors d’oeuvres, there was a nice table of drinks and snacks, which was appreciated.
Grabbed some candy for the boys.
Me: It looks like Sylvester Stallone produced this film. Wait, he wrote it too.
Her: Oh, that’s interesting.
All-in-all, it was an ok film.
Pretty much every cliche in every action flick that both Stallone and Stratham were ever in showed up in the film.
Having said that, in terms of mindless fun, it wasn’t bad.
Afterward, we met a family that took the picture of the two of us you see above, in exchange for our taking a picture of them.
Like I always say, it’s nice being tourists in your own city.
Location: my old Kinko’s, asking if they could cut my dad’s book (no, they can’t)
Mood: weary
Music: Been sleepwalking an eternity (Spotify)
