Superpowers

       

With the East Bay Comic Con coming to Concord this weekend, I thought I'd share a

superpower I'd like to have. If I had a power, I'd have superspeed like The Flash.

Here are several reasons why: 

1. I'd never be late for anything wether it'd be school or work. I'd always be on time.

2. I 'd visit the best places on Earth and not have to buy a ticket to go there.

3. I'd use my powers for good to prevent accidents from happening. 

4. I'd lose alot of weight since I'd be constantly running all the time.

Assigned Seating

       

I love going out to the movies like anyone else. In fact I saw my first movie when I

was 6 years old. But lately, theaters have been changing the way we watch them.

In order to combat the rise of Netflix binging and dropping attendance, theaters have 

been resorting to gimmicks like adding a bar to get people back in.

Along with installing leather recliners, they have implemented a new thing

called Assigned Seating. Assigned Seating is when you get to pick where

you'll be seating before a movie starts. While I think it's great that

they improved the quality of going out, it doesn't come without it's share 

of a couple problems:

1.) Higher Ticket Prices: Theaters such as AMC, Brenden & Cinemark (XD only)

have installed new recliners, what better way to recoup the cost of buying them

by raising the ticket prices a few quarters more. 

2.) Obnoxious People: Depending on where you sit, you may not move to

another seat if you find yourself sitting next to an unruly child or someone

who hasn't bathed in days. Luckily, I haven't had to deal with this problem.

Just like 3D fad many years ago, people will tire of them and stop going.

In the age of Netflix and streaming services, it's better watch a movie in 

the comfort of your own home.

Zootopia

                                             
                                                                     Zootopia

Dir: Byron Howard & Rich Moore

       Voice Cast: Ginnifer Goodwin, Jason Bateman, Idris Elba, JK Simmons

       In the 80 years that Walt Disney has been making animated films, this is by far
   one of their best to date. Zootopia tells the tale of a girl bunny named Judy Hops 
  (Goodwin). Her dream is work as a cop and make her parents proud. To compensate
  for her small size, she works hard to graduate to the top of her class. 

      Judy travels to Zootopia,a huge city where animals freely talk and live among 
  each other. When she gets there, she is assigned to be meter maid but comes upon 
  a missing otter case. In order to prove herself worthy, she teams with a fast talking
  con artist fox, Nick (Bateman). Together they must work together or Judy is forced
  to resign.

      Usually I don't like CGI cartoons but I liked this one almost as much as Wreck It
 Ralph. The Godfather scene might go over small children's heads but adults will
 enjoy it. The sloth working at the DMV and the fat cheetah were comic reliefs.
 This movie is part buddy cop and part mystery. Some scenes may be too intense
 for the little ones. The theme sung by Shakira should have you humming it for days.
