Regal Cinemas Mystery Box for 90,000 Points!

Were you browsing through your Regal Crown Club swag on https://regalcrownclub.regmovies.com and you noticed a box with a mystery question on it?  I did, and I was sucker enough to order it!

The mystery box contains 10 items for 90,000 credits.  For 90,000 credits, you can see 6 free movies in 2-D!  Here are some examples of what you can get for your credits:

 

Atomic Blonde - 27" x 40" Theatrical Poster:  3,500 Credits

Small Popcorn - 7,000 Credits

Small Soft Drink - 8,000 Credits

Movie Ticket - 15,000 Credits

Dunkirk Extra Large IMAX Poster - 58,000 Credits

The House Beach Ball - 5,000 Credits (Special Price, a.k.a. Sale [?])

The most expensive thing you can spend your credits on is a personalized digital rewards card for your app.  Regal graphic designers will work with you to create your own card for a mere 97,000 credits!  It's kind of cool, but just how creative can you get?  If I'm going to use 97,000 credits, my face better be on there!

The box arrived in just a couple days (I ordered it on the night of the 25th and received it on the 28th).  It was 90,000 credits PLUS $11.25 ($3 shipping fee, plus some $8.25 fee).  So this better be some good stuff!

After searching on YouTube and Twitter and seeing no results, I made a video showing you what I got!

My haul:

1.  USS Covenant Shirt - XL
2.  Wonder Woman Shirt - S
3.  Everything Everything (Women's) - M
4.  King Arthur - Small
5.  Why Him Hat
6.  Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Alpha Five Action Figure
7.  Beauty and the Beast Bucket
8.  The Circle Webcam Covers
9.  How to Be a Latin Lover Tote Bag
10.  Moana Art Book

Disappointed?  Yes.  I was so disappointed I didn't even end the video, haha.  I would have rather spent 90,000 credits on 3 or 4 things I wanted rather than received 10 items, most of which I didn't want.  I get it.  It's a mystery deal.  I just failed miserably here.

The Adventures of Birdman - Chester and Lester

(https://youtu.be/BrmuBUM7oPg)

This was filmed years ago - circa the end of 2012.  It's not perfect - it was one of director Tony Donald's first shorts.  However, this could be one of those "so bad, it's good" deals!

Written, Directed, Edited, Scored, and Starring Tony Donald, "The Adventures of Birdman" chronicles the life of crime fighter, Birdman.  And no, he's not out there fighting larger than life villains.  He's out there fighting the scum of the earth, for everyone from you to me.

Galaxy Theaters: Green Valley Luxury+ Vs. Regal Cinemas at Sunset Station Casino

When I first heard that a luxury theater was opening next to one of my favorite breweries, Barleys, boy howdy was I pumped.  Beer and a movie? Yes please!

No, do NOT stop the Luxury please!

Gambler's Anonymus: An Independent Public Service Announcement

http://www.gamblersanonymous.org/ga/

 

When I was attending college, I had to shoot a Public Service Announcement.  My co-director, @GaviolaMedia, and I came up with the idea to do it on gambling.

We knew we had to use The Rose for the main role, and we got Kristi for supporting actress.  They did a great job, as you will see in the following PSAs:

(60 Second PSA)

(30 Second PSA)

 

We sent these commercials to Gambler's Anonymous and they never got back to us :(  We didn't think they were too bad for not having a budget!

 

We also thought the best part was the slogan "Don't Bet on Debt".  If anything, we thought we would get a response on that!  But nope!  Oh well, at least we had fun doing these (except the doing-it-for-a-class part....if we would have saved the $3,000 from the class and just invested it in to this commercial who knows what we could have done!)  I can't complain though - I do enjoy the "I Bet I Can Quit" slogan as well.

 

If you like The Rose's performance, make sure to check out this blog post I did on him appearing in some of mine and @GaviolaMedia's work!

Movie Loaf: UnHungOver

During my last day at the beach, there was a moment when I had nearly 9,000 fans and 33 paparazzi blocking my path away from the beach. I pleaded and begged for them to just let me go since I have just finished filming two movies and one of them was the third highest January release of all time.

 

Luckily, a 26-time war veteran haloed (parachuted) in between me and the crowd. He was able to get me 73 feet away. That's when "The Hangover" star Bradley Cooper emerged from the beach out of nowhere, perfectly camouflaged in a ghilley suit in the beach sand. I thought he would be holding an M24 sniper rifle, but he was using the M2 .50 Cal machine gun as a sniper rifle and carrying 500 linked rounds. What a badass!

 

(Here is how the badass appeared to me. I'm sure he was holding the M2 on purpose like that)

 

He appeared to tell me that they need to add in a piece to his movie that is being released Friday. When his character is in deep trouble at war, he needs to be saved by his long, lost battle buddy from junior high school.

 

He saw the drama in my eyes when trying to fight off the crowd, and that is what he needed for his battle buddy.

Thirty-two minutes later, the film's second unit was set up at the beach ready to shoot. Here are a couple screen captures from the shoot:

 

 



(The first one is shot specifically for the new vertical-convertible movie screens. In this shot, I just receieved a message from Bradley Cooper's character via telepathy for a request of dire help.)

 

(The second shot is me contemplating whether or not I need to save him. In this shot, I am thinking about how much I hate him. At the 7th grade prom, he slept with my prom date, but he was also my best friend. Don't worry, I end up deciding to save him.)

 

The movie releases nationwide this Friday. I hope you all see it!

Movie Loaf: A Sequalic Experience

I would like to thank everyone here for seeing the movie I starred in that released nationwide yesterday.  After the instant success of the 7:00 P.M. release, Adam Goodman, Paramount's President of Film, sent me a SnapChat asking if I could be his Eddie Murphy and save his current financial debacle.

 

Apparently, the whole cast for Paramount's next horror movie scheduled for release on March 13th were actually attacked by ghosts. They don't want to do the movie anymore! Luckily... for me, I was selected to play every role. Filming started right at 7:27 P.M. last night.

The amazing new Inserted Tech for movie cameras allows us to select layers of the area recorded to become transparent. The screen capture below is a shot in which I am the Ghost of the Beach that haunts the family as they pitch a tent at the beach.

 

(One of the many roles I play in the movie - "Ghost at the Beach")

 

The lady (also played by me) doesn't realize that the ghosts are following her, and she thinks living in a tent will resolve her ghost issue.

This movie needs a couple months to release because ghosts are notorious for their right of publicity. They say the fact that their idea/lifestyle (a ghostly being) is being copied, they are entitled royalties. The Paramount lawyers need a couple months to deliberate this un-paranormal idea/lifestyle.

Movie Loaf: The Discovery

On January 8th, while recovering from a fight at the beach, a big shot movie producer approached me.  He said I had just the right look he was looking for. He needed me to play a former badass who has one of his family members taken by a secret agency.

Wage was SAG maximum for the day, so I said yes. For the next 6 hours we filmed, and the movie will be edited tonight and released nation wide tomorrow. Here are a couple sneak peek screen captures from the movie from the same scene:

 

(This is where I deliver the line "I will find you.")

(This is where I look concerned is when I found out the agency has my family member.)

It was a pleasure getting to work with Mr. WhiteTaker, who plays an excellent detective in the movie. Luc Besson has placed all his faith in me, and I hope that faith was well rewarded.
