Faricazy

Callius

The lion, he was jesus.

Faricazy

oh


i get it

Darkseid

I like how even at the end, you really don't know what was real and what was not.

Spoiler:

Sure, the tree thing was probably imagination, but the maze at the end? And her escaping her room? WTF?

Faricazy

i thought

Spoiler:

that the whole thing was real, save for the very end. her mother, the queen? i think thats her imagination and she really did fail the test. but as my friend pointed out, the compassion that she showed was fit for a princess, so the scene kinda goes to show that.

Lucky Cynic

One thing I didn't get was where she had to use the key to open the 3 locked mini-doors, how come the fairies were telling her to open the middle one but instead she opens the one to the left? Also, that thing that was slumbering in the room beats Pyramid Head in my book for being fucking terrifying and cool at the same time. Especially the part where he

Spoiler:

Bites the heads of the Fairies! D:

Btw, does he/it have a formal name of any kind?

naporeon

I've heard him mainly referred to as the Pale Man.

Faricazy

it was a test dude

He was the best thing in the whole movie. I wanted more of that.



Also, yes, children of Men is a fucking fantastic movie.
I <3 Clive Owen.

I was really surprised when I saw Children of Men and

Spoiler:

Julianne Moore died so soon.

I'm not complaining though, I think it was good decision.

tdarkestnumbers; it was a test to see if she followed what her heart told her to do, or what she was told to do (by the faeries)

guillermo explains a load of his thought process behind the film on the dvd, it's pretty amazing the depth he put into something so simple

My decision to piss right then was valid.

These two fat bitches came waddling up and sat right next to me, and proceeded to start talking. Not whispering. Talking. My rage was mitigated by the fact that one of them tripped on the way up the stairs, and then sat in my leftover dipping cheese for my pretzel bites. Sat right down in it. And they were both wheezing from the exertion. I asked them not to talk, but perhaps they didn't understand me, since my request was not delivered in a series of high-frequency pitches and clicks.

So I took a piss and picked a different seat.

Faricazy

Spoiler:

coffee, get a newspapBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMM

just so brilliantly shot

Druhim

Yeah but that was in the trailer so it lost much of its impact.

Faricazy

i didn't expect it so soon though

the sheer contrast between a quiet morning and then

Spoiler:

explosion and blood and rubble everywhere and that woman who comes at him holding her ripped off arm

The world is a cruel, cruel place... Just last week I went with my cousins to see 300 for about the 4th time and while the theater was emptier, it still had a good plenty people in it. This idiot next to me though-- the whole time is yelling at the screen. "Ya! Go Spartans!" "Kick the shit out those Persians..." This is intolerable, and before security kicked him out, some guy (with the best of intentions) threw his beverage at the guy but it splashed the back of his seat and got the back of my head wet. Fun times!

Callius

I hate going to the theatre because every fucking time I go some dipshit has to talk or use their cell phone to chat during the movie.

I hate theatres so much.

you know that thing they do at loews, at least

before the movie begins

baby starts crying, laughter, cellphone rings

through the speakers

its directional sound though and it fooled me the first couple of times i heard it

naporeon

That is one thing that is really good about Seattle.

Except for at the Meridian and Pacific Place theatres downtown, cell-phone use is essentially nil. Also, I don't hear talkers very often, either.

Yeah, the baby crying especially.

I was all, Wait, a baby can't POSSIBLY be that loud!

Faricazy

i was like

MAN WHO BROUGHT A BABY TO BORAT

oh its just speakers

*couple with seven year old walk in*

UHHHHH

And when it does happen I can usually shame them into shutting up.

TankHammer

In my personal experience the theaters near where I live are so much better in terms of audience than anywhere else I have been. There was a baby in the theater during 300 though that was bawling from all the loud noises, yelling and bass but they dragged it and it's mom out pretty quick.

In Georgia was the only place I actually consistently witnessed the stereotypical groups of minorities yelling "OOOOOOOH SNAP MAN! OH OH OH SNAP!" or "Don't go IN THERE!" at the screen.

Knob

there was a baby in the theater when i saw 300 as well

what the fuck are people thinking

i have a damn kid, and i would never consider taking him to a movie until he's old enough to be interested in it and capable of sitting and paying attention to one thing for two hours


putting a kid in a loud dark place where they can't play or really even move around for 2 hours is fucked up

naporeon

Of course, I love the older theatres. You know the kind...the ones with nursing booths.

When I was at WSU, about half of the theatres had them.

It made going to flicks with my ex especially rad.

Knob

hell's a nursing booth

is it a soundproof booth to put bad moms and loud kids in

naporeon

Yeah, pretty much.

It's a booth at the back of the theatre, closed off by a thick pane of glass in front and a door on the side (sometimes lockable!). Usually has only 6-10 seats in it, and no one fucking notices them.

The great thing is that the reflection of the screen on the outside of the glass makes it impossible to see inside.

Knob

that is awesome

Drano

maybe they wanted to see a movie and couldnt find a sitter and thought: fuck it

You will show me where these are.

Knob, it totally is.

parents will take there kids in them and theyll be all coated with teenaged jizz

Most of the ones I've found in Seattle only have a thick curtain on the door, and are routinely checked by the ushers.

Of course, some people consider all that to be part of the fun.

YMMV

TankHammer

I wanna find one of these nursing booths now. This one girl wants to bring me to the new Harry Potter and I'm not exactly the biggest potter fan. But combining it with some nice theater-sex would be awesome as it is on my list of things I've never done. She'd totally be in for it too. I hope she doesn't wear a scarf though...

Drano

i pay to see movies to see movies.
why dont you guys go bang in an elevator or something
