1410. The Twinkie Smuggler (Not a Euphemism!)

So when I went to see Double Tap, I had decided that picking up a pack of Twinkies for the movie would be fun. Anticipating my theater wasn't going to sell them, I bought them outside of the theater and smuggled them in, coincidentally, in my Spider-Man hoodie. Nothing happened. I bought a drink and the manager either didn't notice or didn't care. I mean, in my defense, they don't sell them. If they sold them, I would buy those overpriced snack cakes. I like this theater, I've seen hundreds of movies in it. This is my go-to theater. Hell, I bought Ecto-Coolers from them back when the female Ghostbusters movie was out.

Anyway, I know Tallahassee goes the whole first movie wanting Twinkies and in the end, finally gets some. Honestly, I was hoping there would be a moment in this movie where he finally gets some (even if it was just a joke near the beginning of the movie.) So I waited to eat my Twinkies. When the movie was almost half over, I broke down and ate one of the two Twinkies, thinking I would save the last one for when he eats one in the movie.

And he doesn't. I end up eating the second one as they plan for the final fight scene in the movie. And wouldn't you know it? It didn't matter anyway. There's a Twinkie mascot in the movie, but Tallahassee never eats one in the movie. What a disappointment.

Movie was great, though. If you liked the first one, you'll probably like this one. Stay for the mid and post credits and don't make a huge mess in your theater or Andore will haunt you.
