Would be better if it had the Hulk in it I'm thinking.  "HULK SMASH PUNY STAR-DESTROYER"!!!

Some theater owners have decided to rebel against the corporate Empire which has altered the deal.

ICEBREAKER THESIS CHRONOLOGY! -- Victor Suvorov's Stalin Grand Strategy theory, in lots and lots of chronological order...
Dawn of Armageddon -- narrative AAR for Dawn of War: Soulstorm: Ultimate Apocalypse
Survive Harder! -- Two season narrative AAR, an Amazon Blood Bowl career.
PanzOrc Corpz Generals -- Fantasy Wars narrative AAR, half a combined campaign.
Khazâd du-bekâr! -- narrative dwarf AAR for LotR BfME2 RotWK campaign.
RobO Q Campaign Generator -- archived classic CMBB/CMAK tool!

As if Disney's increasing stranglehold on the movie business wasn't bad enough.  ::)

Honest to god - I'm on the verge of not going to the cinema anymore anyway. I can't stand people on their phones, rustling crisp packets, slurping drinks, talking. I went to see Thor:Ragnarock again yesterday and the guy sitting across the aisle from me had FOUR packets of crisps!

On top of that, our cinema is shite. I have already booked in to see this because my daughter wanted to go see the double bill (The Force Awakens at 21:00 and then The Last Jedi at 00:05)...but I really am on the verge of not wanting to go anymore.

I'm with ya on that, JD. But when the local theater changed their format to picking seats ahead of time (like picking a seat on an airplane), and the seats were changed to huge, comfortable reclining chairs, I went from going to the movies maybe once a year to going 6-8 times now.

With the assigned seating I can time it so I arrive when previews start and totally avoid the shite commercials that they play on endless loop.

When I was in Glasgow last I almost went to see the new Alien movie (new at the time anyway). They had a VIP service at the theater that was I think 20-30 quid...can't recall the exact amount, but it looked sort of like the same seat types and they had a full free snack and drink bar (they better for that price!). I ended up just walking around instead of seeing the movie, even though I went up to the theater to check it out.

The only pre-review that really matters so far:



By 45 seconds in I was laughing so hard my face hurt. At work.

I am genuinely excited to see this movie.

Jeez, it's here already? I saw the pre-sale tix but I thought it wasn't coming out for a few more weeks.
