Movie Night Announcement, 18 Grasshopper, Video

[nutkrusher]

Thought I'd give you all a fun little heads-up: I've booked the theater tomorrow night for a showing of my dad's 90s Hong-Kong-by-Hollywood classic, Ninja Mime. There'll be popcorn, snacks, and plenty of kicky punchy fun for all ages. I hope to see you there!

If you have any questions about what the movie's about or whether it's any good that somehow aren't already answered by the title, hit me up. Otherwise, all you've gotta do is be there...and prepare to be amazed.

Am I detecting a hint of disbelief? It sounds to me like you might not be ready for ninety minutes of pulse-pounding pantomime action and white clown makeup.

[....WOW okay. Um. Please either being sarcastic or not serious about the whole 'biggest movie star in the world' thing right now. Because if not...your world has some issues there, babe.]

...I was before you put it into words.

[Cassie's world does indeed have issues. The fact that there are FIVE movies in the Ninja Mime franchise is, by far...one of them.]

Hey, don't sweat it. The fight scenes are great. And most of the haters don't understand it's supposed to be a comedy.

[She won't go to bat for every dumb movie her father ever made, but she'll defend this one. Albeit not completely unironically.]

[Okay maybe if it's a dumb B-movie that's kinda a fun romp through stupidville he could get behind that. Everyone needed a favorite B-movie from the distant past to go to for cheering up.]

Yeah, okay. That sounds...interesting. I'll give it a watch.

[The average Johnny Cage movie is less a romp through Stupidville than it is a grand tour of the Kingdom of Stupid, but he's more or less got the right idea.]

See, that's the spirit!

I reserve the right to make fun of it for the rest of the train ride.

[And boy will he. That's just how he rolls. Consider him there but handwaved as his mun can't get to more tags right now.]
