| - A-OK.
Yup.
Look, I love movies. I am a movie theater junkie. I try to see 1-2 moves in the theater a week and have no problems getting up early and watching 2 movies in a row at Camelview or the cheap and amazing Pollak on Elliot in Tempe.
So excuse me if I don't jump up and down in excitement over some of the worst British "comedies" in history being played at the worst times imaginable on Mill Ave. I swear, I will watch anything...yet somehow this theatre manages to pick the worst of the indies, the most boring documentaries, the most "rollicking" UK butler humour...my god, my blood pressure soars thinking about the poor choice in reels.
BUT
There is fleeting hope. I had an early date to see the movie "Once" and we shared a "moment". For Halloween we saw "Let the Right One In" which tears Twilight in a thousand pre-pubescent vampire pieces-christ that movie is brilliant.
And last night I put a purty dress on and watched my favourite movie "16 Candles". Is it wrong to love this movie? Yes. A thousand times yes. But I never thought I would see it on the big screen, curled up w/my own Jake Ryan, my buck Harkins Cup and popcorn in comfortable seats for 5 bucks a pop.Whoa??!?
As Billy said, if they played more classic fare for 5 bucks, they would need a frequent visitor club card for me not to go broke supporting shit I could netflix...but don't feel like it.
If the managers read this, please please please pick better movies to show at this venue, advertise them better and have more midnight movies! And old ones too!
Cut.
