trips to los angeles? yes, please!

AMC is offering three sweepstakes with nearly identical prizes... and all three involve travel to California!!!

The Last Heist Of The Summer Sweepstakes is in conjunction with "The Bad Guys 2" movie.

The winner gets a 4-day/3-night trip, including airfare and hotel accommodations for FOUR, as well as a 5-hour tour of the town, for tickets to an escape room adventure, and $500 to spend.

WOW!!!

The Hollywood Escape Sweepstakes is associated with the remake of "The Naked Gun", featuring Liam Neeson in a comedic turn.

The winner gets a 3-day/2-night trip, including airfare and hotel accommodations for TWO, as well as Paramount Pictures Studio VIP tour for two, admission for two to the law enforcement museum, admission for two to a live taping of a late-night show, and $1000.

WOW!!!

The Freakier L.A. Sweepstakes is brought by the folks behind Disney's "Freakier Friday", featuring Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan again.

The winner gets a 4-day/3-night trip, including airfare and hotel accommodations for TWO, private 8-hour tour of the city, travel voucher from airport to hotel, travel voucher from hotel to tour, restaurant credit near the hotel, and $500 to spend.

WOW!!! 

Honestly, I'm good for any of the three!

Speaking of that number, that's how many dances were on my A*List.

"Superman" was fabulous to see again, and I watched it right before my PCP appointment at the Savannah VA.

The nurse, Sarah, is new to the area and didn't know about Tina Tuesdays and discounted tickets all day and all night at all the cinemas around here.

Glad I could enlighten her on that!

The other two were a double header today, and what a mixed bag!

"Smurfs" was a bit better than expected, with its talking Tribbles and the Inside Out names of the girl's six companions. 

On the other hand, "The Fantastic Four: First Steps" was unabashedly baby-centric, which I had not expected and did not like. 

Seriously, why would anyone go to a superhero flick featuring pregnancy???

Nope, that's a one-and-done for me, and don't bother with the next one.

That's the second of three films this year with Pedro Pascal, including "Materialists" and the upcoming "Eddington".

He is a man of diverse talents, I grant him that. 

I just wish he was more selective with his choices.
