Did you ever want to play questions?

Did you ever go to Lion Country Safari in Irvine (more or less) before it closed? What were they thinking?

Sadly, didn’t my mom say “hell NO” to going there?
However, didn’t I attend my first BIG concert at Irvine Meadows Amphitheater in the early 80s, and weren’t there rumors that some of the wild animals were still hanging around there?

In the 80s/90s before the web wasn’t the proliferation of dubious local rumors of all sorts way easier? Isn’t the current rumor of Ted Cruz being the Zodiac Killer filling me with warmth over the amount of traction it’s getting?

Isn’t it sad that basic math rules it out? (i.e. isn’t not being born at the time a pretty good alibi?)

Tired? Sick? Out of time?

Me too!

Going to Arches National Park in ten days? Me too! Why is that the only thing keeping me going right now?

Nope. Giant Ghostbusters fan, but this new incarnation holds no interest for me.

So we’ll just put you down as a heretic then? I’m not even a big Feig fan but this has me excited.

Won’t we probably see it, because Mrs daneel is interested, but isn’t it pretty low on my list of things to get excited about?

Although don’t I expect it to be a lot better than a Ghostbusters 3 would have been, don’t I not have a lot of enthusiasm for reboots?

Exactly! Why can’t the studios buy some NEW IDEAS (there are loads of them out there!) instead of greenlighting so many reboots and sequels?

Have you not seen how much money Star Wars 7 and Jurassic Park 4 and Marvel Super Heroes Twelvety made?

What was the last film I saw in an actual movie theater? Wasn’t it some time in 2015?

Don’t I appreciate being able to use closed captioning and the pause and fast-forward buttons too much to pay approx. $15 for the ‘privilege’ of leaving the comfort of home?

Don’t I go to the movies for almost the exact opposite reason? Am In not easily distracted by lulls in the awesomeness of a film, to the extent that an environment with no access to the internet forces me to concentrate on the film, rather than watch it in chunks between browsing the bbs?

Don’t I suffer from the same problem? Isn’t this why TV with ad breaks is unwatchable for me now?

Well, isn’t that a good point? :relaxed:

ZOMG, don’t I feel almost assaulted during the ads on the odd occasion I watch proper TV round at someone else’s house?
