Ok so, this is a weird question, but i remembered this scene from a movie and i think it was in the beginning where it introduces the main character, a teenager, whom is seen going into a public restroom to opening a box for a phone. He then takes the phone out and replaces it with a ~~Rick Scott~~ rounded rock* the same size and wraps it with saran wrap and used the hand dryer to heat it up, sealing it like it was never opened. Then he walks…

neutral · AI labelView post →Nobody cares about Hotel For Dogs. Did you watch it? I did. I watched it many times. I owned the DVD. It existed. I am not making this movie up. It had a video game for the Nintendo WII Entertainment System. The dogs were sacrificed for the comedy. The drugs don't save me from the CGI nightmares.

Her performances continue to inspire and entertain us. Here's to celebrating the talent and beauty of #EmmaRoberts! #WildChild #HotelForDogs"
neutral · AI labelView post →Can't smoke in theaters anymore. I can go to the store and buy a prerolled joint coated in resin and rolled in moon rocks and crystalline THC but I can't smoke it in any theater. If they want to fill seats for Hotel for Dogs 2 they need to look at their audience and open more drive-in theaters.
