Day 139

Today I was faced with violence. After I arrived at my destination downtown, the busdriver ignored a couple who was late and drove further. The guy screamed the f... and a... word and throw his mug on the bus! Then ... the bus drove further and the man calmed down. Puh!!!

More Chicago pics...

Day 138

We went to the movies and watched Man of Steel. The Cineplex London created a new standard for its cinemas: UltraAVX (Audio Visual Experience, featuring Dolby Atmos). The screen was huge and the quality of the pictures great. Unfortunately, the sound was much too loud. It was really annoying and after the movie I had a whistling sound in my ears!

So, the movie was a typical super hero movie with great pictures and good music. However, the action was to much and in the end it was boring to see another skyscraper that crashed. But I liked the impact how superman used his power. On the other hand there were some really stupid scenes with huge logical problems, too. From me 66%

In the evening we watched the 3rd part of the Before Sunrise, Before Sunset and Before Midnight trilogy. A great movie with interesting and funny dialogues like in the first and second part. From me 84%

However, in one scene you see the breasts of Julie Delpy. Consequently, in the United States the movie got a R rating. People who look younger than 35 have to show an ID. We left our IDs in the hotel. So, we had a long discussion before we got our tickets. God bless America!

The St. Paul's Cathedral of London Ontario is modern and cool like K.I.T.T. from Knight Rider. ;)
