A Rant
But before the rant, a note: I really don't get the hype about Sex and the City. Just saying. I mean, it's all well and good that other people like it, but -- I just don't see the big deal.
This PSA, brought to you by the fact that I work in a movie theater, and I've just gotten home from working the midnight showing of Sex and the City (as well as The Strangers, but well -- there were only ten people in that one). I don't know why it existed.
But then again, I don't like most midnight showings -- See my Angry Harry Potter letters from last summer.
Anywhoo, onto the rant...
Dear Manager Referenced in Harry Potter Letters (the first one),
Thank you for giving me off tomorrow. I would have been very upset if I had to work an opening shift tomorrow after not getting home till 1:45 AM this morning. Granted, opening was only 10:30, however, it's still the thought that counts.
However, NOT COOL with the assigning me the midnight opening shift TWO WEEKS IN A FREAKIN' ROW. And for the movies in question? Home office is an idiot but that's not the point (they get a separate letter) the point is -- TWO WEEKS IN A ROW?!?!?! Grrrrrr -- you really do hate me, don't you?
If you make me work Harry Potter again, I'll start plotting my evil revenge. And I don't even know if we're due for a Harry Potter movie this summer.
No Love at the Moment,
Me.
Dear Home Office,
You're idiots.
I can understand (somewhat) having a midnight showing for Don't Mess with the Zohan. Kind of. I mean, I get it's Adam Sandler, and he's usually a big money maker, but I don't think the movies going to be that big of a blockbuster to warrant a midnight showing. But anyway I kind of see the point. That's not what I'm angry about.
Please tell me why we're having a midnight showing for KUNG FU FREAKIN' PANDA. It is opening on a THURSDAY NIGHT, at MIDNIGHT, which also happens to be a SCHOOL NIGHT. You know, for all the KIDS who are going to want to go see that movie. How do you expect to make any money off of that? I could understand during the summer, but I hate to break it to you, it AIN'T SUMMER YET.
No Love at All,
Me.
I will get to comments and things tomorrow. I'm too tired now -- I just wanted to get this out before I forgot it all.
