I dont care if i'm a guilty pleasure for you...

when allie told me about this movie I was super excited. like what can be better than ryan reynolds, kristen stewart, bill hader and kristen wigg all in one movie?! ummmmm...i know what can be better! have it set based on a place I have been a gazillion times and still freaking love!

growing up, no one didnt love adventureland. I mean the roller coaster hurts like a bitch, the swings are literally death traps and the haunted house still gives me nightmares to this day (i swear its the scariest one everrrrrr), but I never remember ever saying no to adventureland. I do however, remember watching allie doing the ride where it took you up really high and then dropped you down in little increments and basically aimed to make you piss yourself (it took me years to go on that one), and I remember singing on the wave ride about the dudes hairy armpits (he was a statue so i'm guessing we were exaggerating), and I also remember riding the music ride and holding on to the bar so tight as to not crush the person sitting next to me (or being crushed depending on what side I sat on).

I realize that if you havent been there, this description will probably make it sound like hell on earth, and that is exactly what it is. the only difference is that adventureland charges admission.

ps: go to the site, it has games and clips
pps: I am SOOO going to adventureland when it reopens in the spring (i guess i dont value my life that much)

  1. I totally forgot about the talking tree outside the haunted house! I found this on IMDB:

    Owl: I wouldn’t go in there, if I were you!
    Tree: Why not? What’s wrong with a little fun in the dark at Adventureland?
    Owl: Nothing - if your idea of fun is being chased by a man with a CHAINSAW!
    Tree: Chainsaw? I don’t like chainsaws! I once had a close shave with one!
    Owl: Then watch out you silly tree, because I think… I hear… him COMING!
    Tree: MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
    Owl: MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

    HAHAHA- i used to lit run wiht my head ducked past that thing...scary shit.
