You had to have been bored to see 10000 BC again on the big screen..especially since it's out on DVD...lol



Me personally, I have a home theater so if I miss it, I can always catch it once it hits DVD especially since turnaround is faster now...I sometimes have issues going to regular theaters because some people don't know how to act...so sometimes I can only imagine how folks treat the dollar theaters..so sometimes I am better off at home!

I haven't seen a dollar theater in the area in years - maybe in other parts of town. I'd much rather pay full price and go to Alamo Draft House and have a yummy meal and some sangria. Mmmmm . . .sangria. Damn diet! Haven't had it in a while!

Daemon, you know what's so bad about it is I have it on DVD, but my tv is tiny and unfortunately I don't have a home theater. Well, I'm a poor student.

I love that movie, so I really wanted to see it again on the big screen with great sound. Unfortunately I ended up leaving the minute I walked in though. It smelled SO bad in there. I just couldn't take it.

Once again you seem not to get how some of what you type comes across on teh interwebs. I thought this was you making a pretty big deal, too:

Just an old man's $0.02 worth.

#1 - i'm not sure i've ever seen movie theater salt... however i do recall OLD BAY being at the condiment island near the ketchup and stuff. old bay on popcorn (or anything, really)... yummmmm

#2 we used to have a dollar theater near my parents home, now its a church or salvation army or something. i miss it soooo much. don't think there are any more dollar movies around this way, but the theater near my house (not a major chain) has $5 tuesdays or something.

I love going to the movies and I hate paying $8.50 for a ticket. If it's a must-see-now movie, I'll pay full price, though if I can, I'll go to a matinee where it's $6.50.

Otherwise, I wait for it to come to the $1.50 theater.

And I rarely get popcorn at the movies, so I really don't care what kind of salt it has on it.

Why the hell are you going to make this huge deal about salt, seriously, get your head out of your ass and welcome to the real world. They are already doing you a huge favor offering you a movie at $1.00, you can't even rent a DVD for that cheap that I know of. If it bothers you that much do like every other good movie goer in america and pack some in your purse.

For the record, I had no idea this type of mysterious salt existed, and I could really care less.

Nathaniel, I'm not making a huge deal out of anything. You are. Why are you so mad about it? Seriously. Because I like that kind of salt on my popcorn, I have my head in my ass?

I could care less about the price, but I'm not subjecting myself to a movie theater that smells.

I know what you're talking about on the salt, you're right it is different. I think it might be a different salt (i.e. different metals) but it def. doesn't taste the same.

I like the dollar theatre sometime, they show fight-club once a year but I usually miss it.

I knew there was someone on here who knew what I was talking about. Exactly. The regular table salt doesn't taste right on popcorn.

When I make popcorn at home, I sometimes put regular table salt on it. And it tastes good to me. The rest of the time I put parmasean cheese on it, which is better.
