Warcraft and Movies

Warcraft
          So this weekend, I decided to kill some time with Key (Keyaru the one that hit 70) by earning a few "acheivements". Being 70 is awesome when you're questing in a 30-45 zone. I learned that Ambush kills enemies instantly. I love it. There's nothing like beating down enemies that don't stand a chance against you. I also got Key a gun. Actually, I think it's a rifle. Either way, for some reason I kinda feel sexy shooting that thing. It's fun.
          Anyway my fellow guild member, Summonpain, asked for a "run" through Zul'Farrak, an instance/dungeon in the desert zone of Tanaris for levels 40-50. Another from our guild, Brinsel was invited to come but he took his time. So as were waiting for Brin to show up, Summon and I duel. I win. A few times. lol. To give him a chance to win against me, I take off all my armor. I mean all. As I was taking it off, Summon freaks out and goes "woah mama". At this point, Key is only in her guild tabard and a shirt (there was underwear too but that's part of the model). It still takes Summon a while to beat me.
          It's at this point, a few Horde characters show up. Specifically, a troll hunter and a blood elf paladin. I think there was a Tauren too but I don't remember and it's not important to the story. So the blood elf start flirting with me! Repeatedly. I smack him a few times and even tell him "no" but being on different factions, not so easy to communicate.
          He duels his troll buddy and finally I get the chance to duel him. I go into stealth and Ambush him. Naturally, he instantly loses. The troll laughs. The elf cries and Summon says that was kinda harsh.
          I duel the elf a few more times and at one point I was just shooting him. It was so funny but to be honest, it's just like Key to be that way. Some little blood elf paladin thinks he's good enough to talk to her? A rogue, Alliance no less, no way! She, as I did, would enjoy shooting him with her rifle as he runs around crying like a little girl because she was being mean. The whole time, the troll is laughing at him. We're all talking but the game makes it to Alliance and Horde can't communicate. So whatever that troll was saying, it had a few apostrophes and strange syllables and therefore, unintelligible.
          Finally, Brin shows up and to be nuts, I send the flirt emote on the paladin before running inside the instance. We're not in there two minutes when a new character sends me a "whisper" (private message), saying he was the paladin and told me I was hot, etc. I had to laugh, he makes this compliment on the basis of my in-game character at the time. Turns out to be some high school kid. It's so fun to mess with those guys. I intend to continue doing so for some time. I just have to make to make it clear, I already like someone else. :P

Movies
          In other news, I saw two movies with my family this weekend: 17 Again and Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian. Both were entertaining and it was nice to get out.
          17 Again was all right, though I still hate Zac Effron. Maybe in about 10-15 years if he's proven himself to be good actor not some Disney pretty boy I might respect that but...I just have a problem with pretty boys that are in movies to look pretty and draw the tween and teen crowd to waste their money because they're in it. The movie was predictable and it had it's moments so awkward you're not sure whether to cry or laugh at how bad it is.
          Night at the Museum was much better, especially since it was in IMAX. Not exactly an Oscar winner but it was cute and story was...all right. lol. Some of the characters were flat but overall it was a funny movie.

Ahh, summer
          After seeing Night at the Museum, we went to get snow cones. We almost went to the one there by the theater but we didn't. Instead we decided to go to the one in town. It had moved! Ack, but only a few short minutes later we found it. My dad got blueberry and I got "Blue Hawaii". It was good. The stand was by a park so we sat on a bench and enjoyed the warm weather was we ate our sugar soaked ice. That is what summer is all about.
