Théâtre de Film

On Friday night I went with my brother to see Mean Girls. The movie was actually reasonably funny, though it was obviously a toned-version of Heathers (one of the best movies ever). The movie is about a bunch of girls who are essentially idiot clones of eachother - they only pay attention to their hair, makeup, clothes, and who's dating who. Walking out of the theater, I was surrounded by that type of girl, avergae age 15. A couple of them were even talking about how they would never act like that as they checked their hair/makeup with little pocket mirrors. Even Marc (age 11) started laughing.

About 2/3 of the way into the movie, the was some problem in the projection room such that EVERY movie playing stopped. There were police and various other official-type people running around before the movie(s) started again. Apparently Loews didn't want a mob scene, so as everyone left the theater, they handed out free ticket passes. Yay, free movie!

Last night Brian convinced me and Amy to go to Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Well, it wasn't so much convince that it was a good movie, but that we would be able to get there in time and that we shouldn't be doing db/ap. And the movie was good - I don't think there's really that much more you can say without spoiling some aspect.

Apparently you're not allowed to drink on the steps past 2:30am. When we got back, we stopped at Milano and decided to sit on those huge slabs with the lightposts in front of Low. The guards didn't say anything until 2:30, when they kicked everyone off of that section of the steps. They didn't even care that we were very obviously drinking.

I bought another box of donuts....

The 2:30 thing might be related to the Sunday morning liquor laws thing.

They kicked off everyone, and we were the only ones drinking.
