wtf?

so dave and i were at shaun of the dead, at the downtown west. rather enjoying it, really. it's about fifteen minutes to the end of the movie.

they turn on the lights. "it's not a fire or anything, but we have to evacuate the theatre now!"

they handed out two free tickets per person on the way out, so we are not at all disgruntled with our favorite cinema. actually, hate to see them losing money for whatever stupid thing brought on the police cars.

best we can figure, it was probably a bomb threat. the most controversial offering just now is going upriver, that documentary about how the swift boat veterans for truth are full of it. anybody hears otherwise, please do tell.

and if you've seen shaun of the dead, are the last fifteen minutes incredible enough to waste movie passes on? or should we just go see the pro-kerry film? and i heart huckabees. i have a funny feeling that one set of passes shall go towards that one when it opens.

(speaking of subversive films... the pilot light, which i only heard of today from bill the awesome comic store guy, is showing outfoxed next sunday night. anybody, anybody?)

Outfoxed = AWESOME. We watched it for my Sociology of Mass Comm class, and it was great.

Wow.

Sorry you didn't get to finish your movie. I hope it wasn't a bomb threat, but that sounds like a good guess. Hey, maybe it was like that theater somewhere that I read about, where a 6'+ python got loose in a showing of "Anaconda: the Blood Orchid" ;-). They may still be closed.

Seriously, though, I want to see "Going Upriver".

Thanks for the earlier shout-out about the icon, BTW. We Lisas must stick together. I've always liked your icons, too.
