Observations
Know It All Joe’s Monday Meme (Marvel’s Agent Carter)
Hayley Atwell appeared at yesterday’s Los Angeles Comic-Con at the Reef. As any geek knows, she plays Agent Peggy Carter in the Marvel Films, along with her own TV series on ABC.
Mystery of UFO Flyby of Virgin Atlantic Plane Solved!
On July 7, 2015 someone took some amateur video of a foreign object quickly flying past a Virgin Atlantic plane which had just taken off from JFK. Though people are calling it a UFO, I think everyone knows by now that a UFO can be anything from a drone to a weather balloon (though this was clearly not a weather balloon) and doesn’t necessarily mean alien in nature.
A “Back to the Future” Scavenger Hunt! What Do Its Locations Look Like Today?
It’s been almost 30 years since “Back to the Future” hit movie screens (July 3, 1985). It’s one of those timeless films that just doesn’t seem to ever age. And like another film that comes to mind (“The Shawshank Redemption”), whenever it pops up on cable, I can just never seem to change the channel. No matter how many times I watch it, it never gets old. It just so happens to be one of my all-time favorites.
Know It All Joe’s Observation of the Day (“Batman: Arkham Knight” Misspelling)
I just picked up my copy of “Batman: Arkham Knight” for the Playstation 4. And I decided to buy the game guide as well (in case I got stuck somewhere along the way). And I happened to make a little observation as I went to check out. All I can say is that I certainly hope their gameplay is better than their spelling skills.
Star Wars’ Anakin Skywalker Arrested? It’s Meme Time!
I guess it’s time to add another pic to the Hollywood Mugshot Wall of Shame. Only this mugshot is ripped right from the “Star Wars” universe.
Last Wednesday, Young Anakin Skywalker himself, Jake Lloyd, 26, was arrested in Charleston, South Carolina after leading Sheriff’s Deputies on a high speed pursuit that went for miles. Eventually Lloyd lost control of his car and crashed into some trees. He was charged with failing to stop, resisting arrest, reckless driving and driving without a license.
Know It All Joe’s Observation of the Day (Marvel vs. Jurassic World)
So “Jurassic World” turned out to be a huge smashing hit this past weekend. It made $208.8 million at the domestic box office and $524.4 million worldwide. That’s certainly a lot of moola! But I still think “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” has a good shot of overtaking that record in December.
