Movie Night

Cory and I have been having some serious issues with Carmike Cinemas lately.  Usually, it's just the poor quality of projection, film, and sound in their theaters.  Lately, it's been the movie times that are really pissing me off.

We were thrilled a few weeks back when we found out that Carmike had decided to show Fahrenheit 9/11.  I honestly thought it would never play in Columbus because it's such a pro-Bush community (A major military base can do that to a city, though maybe this sentiment is becoming more common). 

But then, we looked at the showtimes.  The latest showing is at 8:30.  So then, we looked at the rest of the movies, and very few of them were showing any later than 9:00.  Come on, peeps.  It's summer.  The kids are out of school and want to stay out late.  For Cory and me, the problem is that our schedules don't allow us to go to a movie that starts any earlier than 9:40.   (they've since remedied this problem)

This week, we lucked out.  No, Fahrenheit 9/11 still isn't playing past 8:30... but Mean Girls started at 10.  No scathing political commentary, but it was actually pretty good... right up there with Heathers.

As for scathing political commentary... none of that today.  But I will refer you to this website, which shows you Dubya's latest social faux pas.
