I want to see this movie more than I’ve wanted to see any movie in many years

But still not enough to get ripped off at the movie theater and forced to sit around a bunch of blabbering idiots on their phones who can’t shut the fuck up and sit still for an hour and a half. And for this, I gotta play $20+ for a ticket and $20+ for a measly bucket of popcorn and a drink? Fuck that!

No matter what, nothing could ever force me to go to a movie theater ever again. I’ll wait a couple months so I can download it.

It might be worth looking around. At least over here, independent/small chain cinemas are making a bit of a comeback.

I’m a lot happier to pay £10 for a big, comfortable, motorised recliner. It’s a lot better than the tiny hard seats in the big chains.

When I lived in Brooklyn, there was Alamo Cinema Grill. No phones were allowed to be used, nor was any talking aloud. If you made so much as a peep, or if you pulled your phone out, they kicked you the fuck out. Period. And ticket prices were reasonable. They also served food and drinks. Which was awesome. They also had cool, comfy seats, and they didn’t play 12 hours worth of shitty TV commercials before the film began.

I don’t live in Brooklyn anymore.
