The Start of Cemetery Season!!!!! - Page 26

Of course it was not meant to be ironic. But it (and as always, when talking about movies, this is subjective) still sucked.

But then, I've not been scared by a movie since I was six or eight (however old I was when Poltergeist came out). The unfortunately external "internal dialogue" wasn't semi-idiotic it was plain painful to sit through.

There may be layers and layers and layers to the movie but the surface layer wasn't interesting enough to want to spend time looking for them.

Of course not. But then I'm me. I also don't try to sink boats on Pirates, talk along with the narration on Disney rides, or hold loud cell phone conversations in restaurants.

On the other hand, it is somewhat surprising to learn that the audience that the cemetery is apparently mostly black.

Yeah, that's what I meant in code when I said I don't want to be attending anymore. I don't like being around all the jigaboos, and I'll be damned if I'm going to sit on the same ground as them.

In other words, WTF Alex? Please don't play that card with me, even in jest. I'm giving you fair warning that I don't find it funny. It's a hot button that I'm asking you not to push any further.

That of course was not the intimation of my post. I just find it amusing that after the recent unpleasantness that the next time you're found bitching about rude and unruly moviegoers it is a bunch of white yuppies.

Also, the irony of you asking that buttons not be pushed is striking to me as well. But in deference to the communal urge to "just move on" I'll promise to only push your button in my mind.

Why don't we ALL stop pushing buttons and move on to more fruitful discussions?

BarTopDancer · 06-25-2007, 11:29 AM

Don't push the button, the button is bad!

blueerica · 06-25-2007, 11:36 AM

What if the button is shiny? Is it still bad if it is shiny?

Alex · 06-25-2007, 11:42 AM

All that matters is that the button makes people uncomfortable. Best to pretend it isn't there.

Unless the button is pancakes. Then it gets a smiley.

But I apologize for posting what I did. I did it and then went to a meeting and almost immediately reconsidered. To show my remorse I will now not post here for a week while I'm on vacation anyway.

On topic, I am surprised to learn that the crowds there aren't generally unruly in some way since that has always been my experience at outdoor and food/drink venues showing old movies. So if you all had a window where that wasn't the case, then even if it has passed be glad you had it for a while.

See you in a week.
