So all a movie needs to be great is to have nice special effects?

I suppose I'll take time out here to inform midwesterners that the Marcus Theaters are the best deal in movies. Go before 5:15, catch the early show for $5.25 buy a 32oz pop for $4.00, after that show (since the marcus theaters are so huge, there's 0 security coverage) refill your pop (refills are free) and go to another show. 2 moves, 64 ounces of pop, $9.25.

Though I suppose it is illegal, everyone does it, and everyone KNOWS that everyone does it, it's kind of a traditonal thing, so long as you don't sneek into a sold out show, they never kick you out. It's to the point where it's almost as if the theaters are marketed towards people seeing 2 for the price of one.



Oh yeah, almost forgot: Free refills on popcorn too.

Here at the not-sh*tty theatres (I especially frequent the Cineplex Odeon) it's like 12 or 13 bucks Canadian for an adult ticket. Add to that some popcorn, a pop, and maybe a little something else (a chocolate bar or whatever) and a night at the movies is usually about 25-30 bucks a person.

I think at the cheap theatres the admission is like 5 or 6 bucks, but they only play old sucky movies, and they end up gouging you a bit at the concessions anyway.

I always bring my own food, even though it's not allowed. Prices for food are crazy, €3 for half a litre of coke. :eek:

Because special effects is the only thing he listed, you jump to the conclusion that special effects is the only thing he thinks the movie has going for it?

Xantar is so fu[use your imagination here]

I didn't jump to any such conclusion. I just asked him to clarify his position because I honestly didn't believe he thought special effects was the only thing the movie had going for it. That's why I asked him a question instead of just making a statement.

The fact that he hasn't answered back to the post makes me wonder, but I'm happy to just wait for him. It's not that important.

The teenagers thing is a tangential comment and a joke besides.

You just made it seem like you think he believes that special effects are the only thing that makes a movie great. In fact, he didn't even say the movie is great. Maybe he thinks the movie is mediocre but the special effects make it worth seeing at the theater. If you claim in your next post that you didn't jump to the conclusion that he said the movie is great, how is your question in any way directed at him or in any way relevant? Either you jumped to a conclusion on his statement and I jumped to a conclusion on yours, or we both posted irrelevant questions just for the sake of making jokes that bash someone. Your pick.

I don't think so... it all depends on the argument, and if worse comes to worse jus piss him off to the point that he gives up ... but methinks moprpheus knows this already.

Look, Morpheus, I could sit here for the next few minutes and decipher all the convoluted logic we just got into or I can just leave it at this:

Yeah, it looked to me like he was saying the movie was great just because of the special effects, but I wanted to give him a chance to clarify. So I made that post hoping he'd explain himself.

You apparently thought I was attacking him or something, so you made a post giving me a chance to clarify myself. Now I have done that.

Since I haven't gotten any reply still, it's all a rather moot point, don't you think?
