Batman deprived
As you all know today was supposed to be my viewing of the wonderful BATMAN movie.
We tried to make it to the 12:20 showing but were a few minutes late. We bought tickets to the 12:50. The camera broke five minutes before it was supposed to come on. We went over to the 1:20 showing and waited for what felt like an eternity. (we’d already been there for an hour.)
Finally the movie comes on. After 6 minutes, the screen cuts out. It comes back on. After 12 minutes, the screen cuts out. It comes back on. After 10 minutes, the screen cuts out. It does NOT come back on.
The line was with Joker holding a mouth to the criminal’s mouth saying, “Why so serious? Maybe we should just CUT a smile into your fa*” (screen fades)By that time everyone in the theater was so pissed off that the manager came in to talk to us.(most of us had been there for over an hour just waiting to get into a screening.) He not only offered us compensation for the film we were supposed to see, but additional tickets for future movies. I can now see four free movies with my husband. However I still have NOT seen the Batman movie and I might just cry. We’re talking about trying to go again tonight or tomorrow morning.
*sighs* I even wore my Batman chucks for the occasion:
My birthday is on Wednesday. If I haven’t seen the movie by then, I think my body might physically shut down.
Meanwhile, the first 28 minutes of the movie rocked.

i didn’t read the entry because i’m trying to stay away from any batman-related text till i see the movie myself, but i have to say those Chucks are DOPE!!
“Oh, the humanity!”
Awwww, man that sux! Habby Birfday is I don’t see ya on Wedneday
IMO, you did not miss much this film, I was disappointed.
Ohhh the first 28 minutes….
So I did some illegal stuff at the theatre the other day, and it appears I went to see the wrong film!! Is it really that good of a movie from what you’ve seen?
Wow. That sucks. At least you got free tickets.
Aww! I loves your shoes, and you! And wishing you a hippo burp day…
And I got to see Batman before you! Ha ha!
But I still loves you!
Love
the
shoes.
Oh and Happy Birthday in case I forget on Wednesday!
Oh bugga! I totally just got the Michael Bolton song when I left my other comment. Blasted, blasted!
Bad Michael Bolton, bad, bad, bad.

that happened to me years ago when I went to see the tomb raider sequel, only that movie was nothing compared to Batman. I haven’t seen it either, maybe I’ll actually get to go on a date with my husband this next weekend.
By far Batman was is the best movies I’ve seen in recent years. It’s for sure the best movie of ’08. You’re going to love it!

wow, how did you not storm the managers office and demand that he fix the machine. i’m impressed you didn’t kill or maim anyone. it is worth the wait, as much as it kills you to.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! *see danceing bunnys danceing everywhere. . . whereing batman and joker gear.*
oh…Happy birthday to wonderful batmania. Wish you and your family everything alright. Haha…How many scores you would give to this film?
@Tim_Tsui - I would give it 4 out of 5 stars. It was a wonderful film and the Joker was portrayed magnificently. Thank you for the sweet birthday wishes.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABY!!!!! You’ve almost caught up with me. Only 4 more years! Here’s some cake that only costs credits not points.
