So Krista and I just got home from seeing "The Da Vinci Code" at the dollar movie. Contrary to popular opinion, Krissy and I actually enjoyed it. Would we see it again? Probably not, but it was fun sitting in the dark, trying to remember what we read three summers ago. I kept mixing up Angels and Demons and TDVC, but what're you gonna do. Props to Paul Bettany who was truly creepy.
On a side note: Props to Krista and I for saving a $1.50 by buying a third ticket and throwing it in the garbage. That's right. On Monday nights movies are $.50 if you have three people in your party; $1.50 if less than three. A Family Night type deal. So we pretended to have three people, paid $1.50 in tickets and then threw a ticket away.
Anyway, back to the real story. Kris and I found a pure giggle worthy moment when halfway through the movie (Professor) Robert (Langdon) and Sophie are trying to escape from the bank manager who has helped them escape into the woods and then tries to pilfer the password protector for himself. Langdon creates a diversion and knocks the said hijacking bank manager to the ground and he and Sophie race to get into the armored truck and speed away. As the truck drives into the distance, the hijacking bank manager fires many a round toward the tail lights of his very own said bank truck. A few bullets hit, but no damage is done, the truck drives away.
This is the conversation that occurred during this critical scene in the movie:
After the bank manager is knocked to the ground and the heroes are running toward the truck:
Nat: Duh. Escaping Your Assailants 101. Always grab the injured person's weapon.
When the bank manager is using his own gun (erroneously left behind) to shoot at the truck:
Kris: Duh. Trying to Stop Retreating Vehicles 101. Shoot out the tires.
There's no surprise that I enjoy seeing movies, watching TV, people observing, telling stories, or talking in general with Krissy.
