Sardines In A Tin Can

Last Tuesday my bro called me to got to the Sneak Preview. It's a special thing that the movie theather has, on Tuesday nights show a 'random' movie that isn't out yet for a reduced price. Random as in they don't tell us which one they'll show, which is one of the reasons it's cheaper than usual (the other reason being the day, I guess Tuesday's is usually the slowest day for them). I usually never go to the sneak peek, because you never know what kind of junk you can get. But since Snakes on a Plane would soon show, and my bro had already seen TFATF:Tokyo Drift in one of those sneak previews once, I decided to try my luck.

They showed An Inconvenient Truth. A movie about Al Gore's fight against global warming. People actually walked out during the movie. I'm not saying it's a bad movie, on the contrary, it's a great movie. For a documentary. I don't even mind it being a documentary, they make really interesting ones nowadays. I (and with me the rest of the audience of a fully packed room) just didn't set my expectations on watching a documentary when going out into town in the evening. There is one funny thing about this though. Even though it's meant as a serious documentary and the movie layout is basically a college class, the trailer makes it look like it's the newest Terminator movie... Talk about creating fake expectations :rolleyes:

But that's beside the point I wanted to make in this post (by now, you'll probably know I tend to side-step before I get to the main point :P). However, it would become quite a long rant, so I'll just save it for another time. to be continued I guess...
