This seems as good a place as any to post my rant.
Does anyone know of a place in Denver/Golden that is showing a midnight screening?
In addition, I have just found out that the theater (the new one) by my place isn’t going to be showing Kill Bill. I will go ahead on elaborate on the situation here in Colorado (for those of you out of the country). There are four movies being widely released this week.
- Kill Bill ®
- Intolerable Cruelty (PG - 13)
- House of the Dead ®
- Good Boy (G)
Across the street from the new theater, with the good sound system and reliable projectors, is the older theater (still good, but with crappy sound). My concern was that the new theater would skip by Kill Bill and play Intolerable Cruelty instead. I would then REFUSE to see Kill Bill in the theater wiht crappy sound and would be forced to go all the way to Denver to see it in a good theater.
Well, much to my dismay, I was right. But… the new theater isn’t even showing Intolerable Cruelty (which I don’t think has a chance of making what Kill Bill will make, but will be close). Instead, it is just going to bring in ‘Good Boy’ (I hate kids movies so very very much). This total lack of business sense has prompted me to write them a letter, and I am thinking about protesting them (by not going to see a movie there again). I am furious.
I have to drive my happy ass all the way accross town to see a reasonable version of the movie I’ve waited 6 years for. not only that, but I have to explain to all of my patient friends why we’re not just going to the convenient (older theater).
Okay, I’m done. Thanks for letting me rant.
