Movies in the Park


There is an outdoor movie festival every Friday night in the Rosslyn area of DC and this summer the theme is 90s movies! Over the summer classic masterpieces such as Clueless, Happy Gilmore, and Office Space were shown. A couple months back (yeah, I never blog), I finally went with some friends not knowing which movie was playing, but with 90s movies, how could you go wrong?

Well, it went wrong. Very, very wrong.

Out of all the potentially great movies they could have shown, they played the movie that probably plays on repeat in Hell: BIO DOME. Starring Pauly Shore and Stephen Baldwin. Ugh. Pauly Shore movies are the worst and yet I spent my entire childhood watching one after another. Blame it on Comedy Central for playing Encino Man every Saturday afternoon for seven years straight. Somehow, though, I never had the displeasure of watching BIO DOME until that unfortunate Friday night at the park.

I didn’t laugh once. I never even heard a chuckle come out of the audience. Even the people who were obviously high sitting behind us knew it was bogus. I think we all hated ourselves at the end for staying the entire time.


Not even the beautiful scenery could distract from Pauly Shore's douche-baginess.

At least Meg and I got to fulfill a childhood dream: kissing Kevin McAllister.

Bwahaha

1. Remember when you told me you had a secret crush on Macaulay Culkin? It's manifesting itself here I guess.
2. Pauly Shore movies, what?! He's always a reference I pretend to understand. Little did I know that I had access to that knowledge right in my own apartment for two whole semesters.
3. I miss you a lot.
