Sigh of relief
Thursday, June 16, 2005

Let's put aside all the speculation about Serenity's potential for an earlier release than Sept. 30. Regardless of the date, I think I can exhale now.

My local theater has the Serenity logo on its website.

For those of you wondering why this might be a big deal, try to remember that I live in a small town in western Kentucky. While the nearest theater is only 15 minutes away, it's in a town that wouldn't be half as big as it is if it weren't for the college it houses (Murray State University, Murray KY, for those interested). Murray's got a great little theater, but the "little" part had me a bit worried about whether they'd get Serenity. Of course, the town I work in (Paducah, 40 minutes from home) has a large Cinemark theater which will likely get it, but the seats are uncomfortable, the trailers take half an hour, they've got those crappy Coke and Fanta commercials, etc. In other words, I've been hoping Murray would get it.

If you're REALLY bored (or sincrely that interested), go to http://www.moviesinmurray.com and scroll to the bottom. Be warned, it's a REALLY bad website, but it at least gives you a peek into what my neck of the woods looks like. As of now, it's the only movie on the site that is advertised with a poster/logo. It's also got a countdown.

Holy crap. That just flew by me. They've got a rutting running countdown to Serenity on the site! Makes me think there's more Browncoats around here than I've been able to discover ... SHOW YOURSELVES!

No offense intended about the site, Anon. I love the theater. Great sound, comfy seats, popcorn that leaves a taste in my mouth for a week - but a GOOD taste.

I pledge at least three viewings by my wife and I during the first weekend. At least. Much more than that, hopefully.

Unfortunately, I know that it's hot. It's the only verse I can remember.
I want you to know that I've had that STUPID jingle in my head all day because of you. Feel guilty.
Actually, it's a bit of a relief from the annoying children's songs that have been running through it lately. We're doing VBS at church and I've been leading music. The songs are TERRIBLE. I think I need to go listen to something I actually like...

Or is it "hot" - You look hot in all that plaster ...

Why am I debating the script to a Fanta commercial?

It's a cute theater! I love the multi-coloured tiles on the floors and the circa 1965 sign out front. How exciting. If my local theater was anything like that, I'd probably enjoy going to the movies more often.


P.S. Glad I'm not the only one that hates those Coke and Fanta commmercials. I always get the fanta song in my head. Grr...there it is now. GO AWAY!
