Sunday, October 13th
Happy Sunday. I’m here in Los Angeles when I should be in Tokyo 🙁 I’m still so shook this happened. Was slated to go Saturday through Wednesday & woke up to news that all flights out to Japan were cancelled due to the typhoon. No planes were leaving until Tuesday so I’d miss Tokyo Fashion Week which is half the reason I was going. Was super depressed yesterday but forced myself to go out in the evening & felt a lot better. Sometimes just surrounding yourself with people (good people) makes all the difference.
Today was extremely productive… I think. Worked, went to smoke with my girl in Brentwood (so beautiful), went to yoga, went to a ahangforcreatives get together in a beautiful house in Culver City — celebrating the full moon. I still don’t know what full moons stand for (nor do I believe in horoscopes in any way shape or form), but we smoked and it was nothing short of positive energy. Still lit lmao. Weed cures everything, I swear.
But it didn’t cure how terrible this movie was. You would think Will Smith starring in Gemini Man is an instant recipe for success, but boy was I wrong. I literally didn’t think this could fail, but it did. I should have known ’cause Rotten Tomatoes gave it a 21%, but I also think that fucked with my impression of the movie from the getgo. Like the plot had so much potential to be fucking dope but the corniness factor was at an all-time high. I’m shook Will even approved to let this hit theaters…
Who will save you from yourself? From visionary director Ang Lee, watch the official trailer for #GeminiMan, starring Will Smith. In theatres Oct 11. pic.twitter.com/D7IPlnkDQP

IMDB plot: A retiring assassin, Henry Brogan, finds himself pursued by a mysterious killer that can predict his every move. Discovering that he’s being hunted by a younger clone of himself, Henry needs to find out why he’s being targeted and who the creator is.
We hit the 7:50pm showing at AMC Atlantic 14 in Monterey Park. Shout out to Duncan for accompanying me, and putting up with me complaining the entire movie! I honestly don’t know why I hated it so much, it was just so dull. The writers were trash & there was only one funny joke out of like 100. Pretty much, Will Smith is an assassin who retires but then his younger self gets sent to kill him & they use CGI for the young Will Smith. It’s laughable, truly.
saw gemini man in 3d high af.
& it still sucked. 😩

Okay I’m done ranting. Go see this if you’re absolutely bored out of your mind. It’s semi-entertaining at least. In all honesty, Will in Aladdin was 10000x better than Will in Gemini Man. Oh, and I saw it in 3D! Still was trash.
