Old Forester hosts Kingsman screening at Ft Knox

| September 14, 2017

For those of you who might be in the Fort Knox area and find yourselves without plans for Friday night, the folks at the Old Forester distillery invite you to an exclusive screening of the movie “Kingsman; The Golden Circle”;

ABOUT THE FILM: In “Kingsman: The Golden Circle,” our heroes face a new challenge when their headquarters are destroyed and the world is held hostage. Their journey leads them to the discovery of an allied spy organization in the U.S. called Statesman, dating back to the day they were both founded. The Statesman, based in Louisville, Kentucky, act as master distillers to hide their true identity. In a new adventure that tests their agents’ strength and wits to the limit, these two elite secret organizations band together to defeat a ruthless common enemy, in order to save the world, something that’s becoming a bit of a habit for Eggsy. The sequel to “Kingsman: The Secret Service,” “Kingsman: The Golden Circle” is directed by Matthew Vaughn and stars original cast members Colin Firth, Taron Egerton, and Mark Strong, and introduces new cast members Jeff Bridges, Channing Tatum, Pedro Pascal, Halle Berry, and Julianne Moore. The film premieres to global audiences September 22.

ABOUT OLD FORESTER: Old Forester is Brown-Forman’s founding brand, founded in 1870 by George Garvin Brown. Brown believed Old Forester was so pure and consistent that he sealed it, signed it, and pledged “There is nothing better in the market.” The Old Forester Distillery will celebrate Brown’s innovative spirit and his commitment to making the highest quality bourbon.

Old Forester Statesman Whiskey is produced at the Brown-Forman Distillery in Louisville, Kentucky with the same mash bill as Old Forester.

Suggested retail price: $54.99

In case you missed it in the flyer, there will be free popcorn and Bourbon samples.

$55 for a bottle of booze?

I think I’ll stick to popcorn.

“$55 for a bottle of booze?” Check out Pappy Van Winkle, Ex.

I don’t get it either. Must be the snob appeal.

You may be right, AW1Ed. The frangipane filling for Normandy apple tarte requires apple brandy. The most recommended brand is Calvados, a French apple brandy. It costs $45/750ml, and the recipe requires only one tablespoonful of it.

But it’s brandy, so I can either use it or pop a jigger of it now and then. It’s brandy. It will last forever.

Snootiness costs a lot.

So the entire movie is just one long, action-packed advertisement?

Aren’t they all any more?

Ex-PH2

The Mad Max movies have gone from appropriate dialogue with action to action with nearly no dialogue. It sometimes makes me cringe.

Jonn, you should be ashamed of getting my hopes up…I was hoping to hear “Louie, Louie” and “Fever” live!

MMC Masterson once told me down in main control-Kid drink soda pop and keep your pecker in your pants when you go on your first liberty in Old San Juan PR.

From imdb.com:

Fox was originally planned to have a world premiere of the movie in New York on September 12 but canceled it to help out with the Hurricane Harvey relief telethon by donate the money budgeted for its Kingsman soiree to Hand in Hand: A Benefit for Hurricane Harvey Relief that same night.

I’ll bet they don’t get any publicity for this.
