Checking out movie studios (Warner Bros., 20th Century Fox Studios, and Universal Studios)!

Today, Rahulio went to the Warner Bros. Studios in Burbank, CA. It was great to see the "Harry Potter" equipment and props in the museum at the Warner Bros. Studios. In my lifetime, RSG has been to three major movie studios (Universal Studios, 20th Century Fox Studios, and Warner Brothers Studios). 20th Century Fox Studios does not do a tour of the studios, unlike the other studios. I went to 20th Century Fox Studios to be a part of the audience in a NFL show on Fox Sports Net. It was great, and this event was in 2002. Today, the tour guide (Bob) at Warner Bros. Studios was hilarious and he got the crowd into the tour. It was a VIP studio tour. It was really fun. On another note, I went to Universal Studios in 1999, and another time during my childhood. Universal Studios tour included the back lot tour, which is pretty cool. All in all, I think Warner Bros. studios tour was the best. Enjoy the picture from today's tour. This picture is from the Central Perk set of the TV show, "Friends."

Seeing "Seinfeld" & "Beautiful Creatures"

Well, RSG saw "Jerry Seinfeld" in a comedy show at the Comerica Theatre (in Phoenix) on 9-22-2012. It was a very funny show. Chuck Martin opened up the show by doing a 15 minute comedy routine. After his hilarious routine, Jerry S. did his 70 minute monologue (funny, yet brief). When Jerry finished, he thought of doing a 10 minute Q & A session in addition to his comedy routine. Seeing both acts in club seating (2nd level, practically middle level of theatre) was a great experience. Jerry talked about the TV show, "Seinfeld", and his fellow cast mates (Wayne Knight, Jason Alexander, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, and Michael Richards). Seeing Jerry and Chuck was a great night. Next, RSG saw "Beautiful Creatures" at a Private Screening movie event in Tempe on 10-2-2012. Seeing this movie at Tempe Marketplace Harkins Theaters was great, because the movie comes out domestically on 2-13-2013. Essentially, R.S. saw the movie four months before anyone else. Woohoo! The movie has a great cast thanks to the following actors/actresses: Jeremy Irons, Alden Ehrenreich, Alice Englert, Emmy Rossum, Emma Thompson, and Viola Davis. It's a scary good movie, with some romance too. Overall, it was a 7.3 out of 10 stars in my movie critic world. Hope tons of people see it in February 2013! This month, there are more good movies to see. R.S. needs to see "Argo", "Seven Psychopaths", etc. Next month brings the return of James Bond in "Skyfall." This movie should be a big hit for Daniel Craig. The picture for this post is from "Beautiful Creatures." It shows all the cast members and their respective characters also.
