Frat Boy At the Movies: Captain America: Civil War

by tonyd on May 9, 2016 at 12:01 am

Well, I was worried about a third Captain America movie. Winter Soldier really surprised me, but not as much as this movie. Wow.

Very loosely based on the comic book crossover, the movie is a classic superhero set up where the superheroes fight. Directed by the Russo brothers and very ably scripted by Christopher Markus and Steven McFeely, the story builds upon the events of Avengers 2. It reintroduces Baron Zemo and also builds upon the story from Winter Soldier.

The movie also has great cameos from Ant Man and Spiderman. (I’m psyched to go back and see Ant Man, since I skipped it.) The path is laid out for a Black Panther movie. Stan Lee’s cameo was great too. The standouts, however, are still Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans and Scarlett Johansson. Their three characters hold the plot together, as each reveal ups the ante on the fight.

Beyond that, it’s hard to tell you more without giving it away. It’s funny, dramatic, full of action and pretty true to the comic. The Missus thought the fight between the heroes was “petty” and beneath them, but I felt it was pretty true to the Marvel Universe soap opera, circa 1978 or so.

Stay for two scenes after the credits and don’t miss it.

I give Captain America: Civil War 10 out of 10 keggers. The Marvel franchise is still solid, bros. Don’t miss it.

Fat Guy Eats: Bamboo Fusion

by tonyd on May 7, 2016 at 12:22 am

Restaurant: Bamboo Fusion

Address: Laurel Hill Plz, Clementon, NJ 08021

Price: Very Reasonable

Portions: Huge

Taste: Amazing

Service: Ruthless Efficient

Atmosphere: Sufficient

Wow. Another great experience, which I totally forgot about. Bamboo Fusion has an all-you-can-eat sushi deal which is the tits. On the menu is all the white tuna, eel and salmon nigiri you can eat for $23.95. The missus got a three course Chinese meal for $10.95. The whole bill was only $40 and I was stuffed with delicious goodness.

The miso soup, good. The ginger salad, nice and large and yummy. My plate had three pieces of salmon, white tuna and eel. An Unagi and avocado roll, spicy tuna roll and I tried a chicken roll, just because I never had one. All of it was really good. Needless to say, I was pretty full after round one, but I felt obligated to stuff myself. I stacked two more white tuna pieces and a kelp salad on that.

One of the highlights is when I ordered an iced tea. The waiter, without any prompting from me, brought me an iced tea in a quart-sized plastic soup container! Inside was also a chopped up lemon that had already been squeezed. Perfect drink for me. It was like the waiter read my mind. Has word leaked that I’m doing these reviews or something?

Our waiter, by the way, was crushing it. He ran back and forth like his life depended on it. Great service and at that price, I will definitely be back to stuff my face again.

I give Bamboo Fusion 9.5 out of 10 keggers. The only thing I took off was a half keg for the room, which could use a remodel. I mean, it’s clean, it’s just a little dated. Hardly a factor unless you’re on a first date looking to impress.
