QUOTE (DrownThings @ Mar 22 2007, 11:33 AM) I didnt get payed today but I needed to pass about 2 hours in town.... And the cinema's the only thing I dont have to pay for.... So.... maybe......  Oh, I'd never get anything else done if I had free cinema access any time I liked.  As it is I already waste far too much time on the internet & watching TV. Hhhmmm. I should probably try living life a bit.... Nah! Virtual life is so much better than my real one!  Living vicariously through much more interesting & talented people.  Feel the love. dolfyn.

I dont want to live in real life. Hypothetical me is so much cooler, so I live vicariously through her!
Yeah, free cinema is quite dangerous. I dropped out of college last year and then instead of telling my parents I went to the cinema every day. But then I told them and now Im in a course I like so it's all good. But the moral of the story is, I go to the cinema far too much!

I use to work over 50 hours a week at a cinema. When I wasn't working I was watching films so I pretty much lived there for 6 months.

When I was about 14 my friends and I used to go to the movies ALL the time.
We saw pretty much everything that came out - and some things we saw several times. I guess when you're 14 and you want to be somewhere away from your parents the movies is just about the only place to be (unless you're getting into mischeif somewhere) These days though I find I'm rarely inspired to go. Not many movies come out which I really want to see. And given the price of a movie ticket now days I have to really want to see it before I'll go. Plus, having a widescreen telly and multi-region DVD player at home - I kind of prefer to watch things from the comfort of my couch and not have to worry about people's phones going off, crunching popcorn, talking, kicking my seat, etc, etc,etc Then something like HF comes along which is just fantastic for the big screen. Big action, big noise, and great crowd reactions! It's the perfect film to see in the cinema. It's what going to the movies is SUPPOSED to be all about!! |

aching for one more jaffa cake! Group: Senior Members Posts: 209 Joined: 7-March 07 From: sheffield Member No.: 6,177 |
I’ve seen it legally 4 and not so legally 10.
My dad when the sound of music first came out saw it at the cinema 67 times. In about 3 years. Gone are the days when cinemas had films on for years and the price was only 2p. since we bought him the DVD last year after he came out of hospital its never been out of the DVD player  i'd say anything under 30's fine. till the dvd's out then i'd go for 45 times a years fine. gives you chance to watch it every week.

What to do. What to do...

Yaaayyy! I'm going to my 3rd viewing tonight with my friend & his flatmate (well, I guess she's gradually becoming my friend too).
They haven't seen it yet, so it should be good. I'm getting that Fuzz-y feeling.  Feel the love. dolfyn.

Still only twice so far for me.
But 3rd and 4th times are already scheduled for the next couple of weeks! |

Waaahoooo!
I just got back from my 3rd viewing! Hot Fuzz gets better every time I watch it! Unfortunately, my friend was being annoying during the movie, so I had to tell him to shut up. I swear, it was like having a toddler next to me! He has the attention-span of one, anyway. But my other friend, his flatmate, was right into it. Man, it's such a great movie! I'm meant to be going to bed now, as I have work tomorrow, but I'm just so pumped up now. I wanted to speed around in my car whilst shooting a pistol & yelling "Bang!" hehehee.Plus, I snuck an alcoholic cider into the cinema, & I'm having another one now, so I'm feeling quite good. Hot Fuzz rocks! Feel the love. dolfyn.

I was trying to work out if "Tight arse" is an Australianism or not??
I wouldn't have though so. It's in Urban Dictionary but it was posted there by an Australian. Anyway, I assume it's fairly clear what it means. We don't like to mess about in this country. Straight to the point, you know. The anti-drink-driving campaign slogan here used to be "If you drink and drive, you're a bloody idiot" I think it gets the message across Yay! Glad you enjoyed your 3rd screening Gen. Working on a Saturday again though? That sucks! |
