Hunting for a Fargo related tresure at the bytowne!

Hello fellow readers,

Today, at the ByTowne cinema, I saw a independent film called "Kumiko the Tresure Hunter". The story is surrounded by the urban legend that a Japanese woman attempted to go to Fargo, and tries to find the place that they buried the suit case in the film 'Fargo' and dies trying. That urban legend, is basically the whole film exception in real life, the Japanese woman went there to commit suicide. The film is well shot, and has a great Electronic/old Japanese music score to it. The actress, Rinko Kikuchi plays most likely the second best performance of her life (which the first is from a movie called Babel, which she got nominated for an academy award for) and the direction is right on point by David Zellner. This is more of a dark comedy, and I'm happy to say that it worked well as a dark comedy. The story may be a little predictable, and the story a little simple, but that does not stop for it to be a dark, funny, weird, art house film! Also, the poster marketing for this movie was AMAZING!

See you in my next post!

Landsdowne Park New Movie Theater!

Hello readers,

Guess what! I went to the new Lansdowne Park VIP theater (Which opened Friday [Yesterday]) and it was amazing! The whole theater is very fancy and really cool, and it has 3 popcorn stands (On each floor), one candy bar (in the VIP), a frozen yogurt shop, and an arcade! The theater has 10 screens (4 VIP, 5 Normal, and 1 Ultra AVX D-box screen!) I would like to say "thank you" to Shawn D (Manager of Cineplex in Eastern Ontario), who gave me an awesome tour of the new theater and as well two free movie tickets! Thank you Shawn!

Now it's time to show you the interior of the building! Let's start off with the first floor, which has an arcade (Xsacpe), a Frozen Yogurt Shop, The Box office, and a fun Cineplex magazine game! In the arcade I played a couple of games and in the yogurt shop, I had a chocolate frozen yogurt!

 

 

 

The Second Floor has 4 theaters, a party room, and one food popcorn stand!

 

The Third Floor has the four VIP theaters and the Ultra AVX with D-box screen! As well, with a candy bar in the VIP and a popcorn stand in the Ultra AVX section! Also, a small gallery of movie freeze frames from a lot of famous films!

And here is the Exterior of the New Theater!

 

Thank you Shawn D for giving me the awesome tour!

See you in my next post! :)
