Avengers... ASSEMBLE!
Another year we take time to observe and remember those who served this country in some form of military service either abroad or at home. Though we are not in any major conflicts at the moment abroad (dispute potentially 2 huge ones last year), doesn't mean we have folks in danger in countries who are serving and those who have served and past. So, if you know of someone that has served or is serving, maybe say thanks. It doesn't hurt you, might give them a nice smile and you had to do is say one word.
This past Friday was a fun (yet tiring) day. I had a chance to preview the new land coming to Disney's California Adventure, Avengers Campus! It wasn't a hot day but there is next to no shade in the area so you can feel the heat directly hitting you. I was 2nd in line to enter the new land and when they opened it up, made a b-line to the new ride/attraction. I was about 3rd on the ride and it was both fun and tiring at the same time. You are basically motioning your arms and hands like you are shooting webs like Spider-Man. The technology was pretty neat but if you don't know what to expect, your upper arms get tired. Right after the ride, ordered some food and the shawarma stand had just opened so everything was fresh. The chicken shawarma was delicious with the coconut yogurt tahini sauce. Then right after, had to try something from the Pym Test Kitchen so got a Pym-ini (or panini) and it was pretty good. I did get the kids portion because after the shawarma I was getting pretty full. Other than that, not much else to do in the land except walk around and took some photo ops so will see how they come out after June 4th.
Movies are back, or on the road to recovery anyway. New at #1 is A Quiet Place: Part II with a nice 48.4 million! Really solid number but slightly below industry expectations. Not a bad start for the Summer though. New at #2 is Cruella with 21.3 mil and right about expectations for this one. Drop down to #3 is "Spiral" with 2.3 mil extra as it's inches away from 20 mil. Dip down to #4 is "Wrath of Man" with 2.1 mil as it now passes the 20 mil mark. Rounding off the top 5 and hanging in there is "Raya and the Last Dragon" with 2 mil extra and finally crosses that 50 mil mark!
