MOVIE WEEKEND

This weekend was Movie Mania.... in addition to catching FF2 saturday...

One of the local small theaters was doing a Sci-Fi celebration and showed THE THING (Carpenter's), DARK CRYSTAL, POLTERGEIST, CREEPSHOW, TRON and STAR TREK II: THE WRATH OF KHAN!!! We missed The Thing (wah!!) but got to see DARK CRYSTAL again. Man, I tell you what, that movie is awesome. And even better on film, projected on the big screen! It's one of my all-time Top 5 movies. We tried to catch Tron and Khan on sunday but they SOLD OUT!! (Wah! Wah!!). Totally sucked.

You think the Aero Theater is a "small" theater?!? That place is huge! Huge and LOUD. I brought earplugs with me because at their recent showing of 'Shampoo' they were cranking that sound system.

My best experience there(and i' considering becoming a member) was when i brought the little lady to see The Road Warrior(she hadn't seen it) and the car was parked out front:

Well, "small" compared to the multiplex places like The Bridge or ArcLight.

Awesome story about Road Warrior (and kudos for exposing your lady to film!!!). Love the car pics! I'm postin' those, man! Thanks!
