Went with the missus to see Indiana Jones.

What a worthless pile of elephant shit.

The first 10 minutes of the movie had both of us thinking that it *MUST* have been some sort of dream sequence or Prof. Jones doing a movie about his exploits or some such.

No... it was actually part of the movie.

Dialog was terrible, every cliche you have ever heard of is used in the film, the CGI was BLEH, and the script must have been originally written as fan fucking fiction.

After the movie, I went to the counter and asked for my money back.... got it too.

We stayed only because we thought that there was no possible way a movie by Lucas, Spielberg, and Ford would suck that hard. We were WRONG.

As a proprietor myself, I'll give something away every day to keep a client happy as long as it didn't come out of my pocket.

If the proprietor is a willing participant, then what's the problem?

I could go to Ironman, claim that it was shitty even though I enjoyed it, and then come back and see Ironman 2. Great idea
I'm guessing he hit up the Warren Theater instead of going to the cheaper Northrock 14. Am I right PR?

I figured the movie would suck. That being said I'm really surprised the manager gave you back your money. In some industries that's just not a very good idea. Places like home depot and what not will take a small hit and try to make you happy because of "word of mouth". If you have a good experience you might tell a few people, but if they really screw you over your more likely to tell a whole bunch of people and it snowballs. Just makes good business sence in some cases

He didn't DEMAND anything. He simply ASKED. No stomping around. No loud cursing. No causing a scene.

Should the manager have said no? Probably. But he didn't. Get pissed at him for breaking policy.

But I'd bet he made a concession knowing that getting him back to the theatre at a later date makes them more money in the long run.

In the grand scheme of things, this isn't a BFD IMO.

But some of you guys are making him out to be a ****ing monster...

It's not sandy ginas. Dane works in the entertainment industry, I see why it upsets him. For everyone else, it's a major inferiority complex. LOOKY LOOKY, HE'S AN EVIL DOER!!! MY LIFE ISN'T SO SHITTY AFTER ALL!!!!! YAY!!!!!!!

In fact he'll probably make more money due to PR paying a combined total of about $40 for all the popcorn/candy/soda in his two visits...

Same works for the soda but I wouldn't recomend trying both at the same time...

Just saw it. It's definitely a "check your brain at the door" film.

It's embarrassing to ask the manager for your brains back afterwards so I just let him keep them.

That's so off the mark I don't know where to start.....do you know what inferiority complex means?

Try looking at the big picture, sport. I don't even know this PR dude, but what he broadcast about himself and what he thinks there's "no harm in asking", is telling.

I'm glad I saved my money this weekend. I had plans to go see this movie but it fell through.

On another note about getting your money back. When Spiderman 3 came out I was excited to see it. I went to the theater and could barely get through 45 mins of it. I walked out! What a horrible movie not worth my money. I should have asked for my money back.

As for you folks bitching because he got the refund, where do you set the limit? Once something is under half-watched, or half-eaten, is it then ok to ask for a refund?

If I could have gotten my refund straight from Sam Raimi, would have been grand!
