Transcript
[0:00]
And now the Flophouse movie minute
[0:09]
Hey, what's up? It's me Stuart Wellington from the Flophouse
[0:14]
With the hot new movie minute for you guys
[0:16]
I was just hoping to tell you guys a little story from a few years back when I went to see
[0:21]
When I went to see Van Helsing in it's a pre-screening note. I did not pay to go see Van Helsing and
[0:30]
But I would have
[0:32]
So a
[0:34]
Buddy of mine went to go see it in New York City
[0:38]
You know, the big city was pretty impressive and we ended up getting pulled out of line
[0:42]
It was a really fucking long line might I add we got pulled out of line to sit in the press booth
[0:48]
Based on the question. Do you guys talk during movies and I was like, no
[0:54]
She was like, okay
[0:55]
I'll be back in a minute and came back and like took us to the front of the line
[0:58]
So for a while I was obsessed that she had the hots for me, but nonetheless
[1:02]
So we end up going into this press booth and like in the balcony and we're like, wow, this is really cool
[1:08]
There's us and like nobody up here. And then Stephen Summers came out to introduce his movie
[1:14]
director of the mummy movies and which
[1:17]
Okay
[1:18]
And then he also directed a movie called Deep Rising with Treat Williams who was awesome
[1:24]
Until he was on Everwood, but I don't want to talk about that. So
[1:28]
And then the lights started dimming
[1:29]
the lights are dimming and
[1:31]
You know, we're getting pretty jazzed because we saw the trailers and Hugh Jackman's got a really cool wig in the movie. So
[1:39]
So a bunch of people start filing in to sit behind us and we're like what the fuck's going on?
[1:43]
And we look behind us and my friend is like totally into Kate Beckinsale
[1:47]
so we look behind us and lo and behold, it's Kate Beckinsale and
[1:51]
Let me just point out that
[1:54]
So
[1:58]
And Kate Beckinsale, can I point out in like wearing a t-shirt and jeans is really attractive
[2:05]
Not I would not kick her out of bed probably so with the movie starts and of course, it's great
[2:10]
You know, you got two hours where literally every character in the movie is swinging on a rope from one place to another place
[2:18]
yeah, it's fucking astounding and
[2:20]
The end of the movie right before the credits roll you you see a cloud
[2:25]
Face of Kate Beckinsale like a CGI face of Kate Beckinsale in the clouds where she cries a single tear. I
[2:33]
Wanted to laugh so hard and yet she's sitting right behind me and it was so fucking hard not to laugh and then
[2:40]
and then she left very quickly and quietly as the credits began to roll and I had to sit there and
[2:45]
Wait till they all left so that I didn't look at them
[2:49]
So that was a really good adventure at a movie theater
[2:55]
Thanks
