Movies and TV I have never walked out of a movie but I came damn close today - RANT - Page 11

**pr_capone** · 02:00 PM

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.

Speaking of things that make you want to ask people for money back ...

Does anyone here have one of those Regal Cinema Club Cards? You get points when you go to the movies and purchase popcorn and stuff. I ask because their website says that the cardholder receives a free movie ticket when you reach 120 points. We currently have 180 points, but when we got our tickets, the receipt thing said we could get Muddy Bears for 1 dollar instead. I don't like Muddy Bears. In fact, I don't even know what Muddy Bears are. Anyhow, when we inquired about this, the manager of the theater said he doesn't control the card awards and that the computer decides what you receive when you use the card at the point of purchase. I don't understand how it works. Anybody?

I took my 9 year old son to see Iron Man this weekend. Talked him out of Indiana Jones.
Really glad as we both completely enjoyed Iron Man. It was cutting edge yet not too dirty/profane for a kid. Best action hero movie I've seen in a long long time.

There were fat people sitting next to us that kept getting up to go do God knows what. Between the two I'd say their lard asses deprived us of approx. one minute's viewing time.
Should I have asked for my money back? Fat-ass credits?
Some people really need to hit the gym.

Lol @ asking for your money back.

Wa-Z · 05-27-2008, 11:08 AM

That's like trying to get a new meal at a restaurant after eating yours.

**penguinz** · 05-27-2008, 11:22 AM

Why would you think that Lucas could make a good movie? It has been over 20 years since he has.

**bogey** · 05-27-2008, 11:54 AM

What I gather from this thread is that there seems to be a lot of personal feelings against the thread starter. On scale of 1 - 10, I give the severity of this a 1. For those of you who are being so judgmental on his morality, and if you must take such a strong stance, I say let he who is without sin throw the first stone. There seems to be a LOT a perfect people on here.

But that would leave some of us with nothing. How about we throw eighths? Or maybe just grams?

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.

Right. I have NO clue what an inferiority complex is. Well, here's the definition so there's no confusion.

http://dictionary.reference.com/brow...rity%20complex

Psychiatry. intense feeling of inferiority, producing a personality characterized either by extreme reticence or, as a result of overcompensation, by extreme aggressiveness.

That bolded part sure hasn't happened in this thread now has it? Maybe you just haven't come to grips with your own. I don't know. I don't really care either. Note however, no one called Rausch out for stealing popcorn and soda in a movie theatre. Why do you suppose that is? Probably because Rausch would make your inferiority complex worse.

If you got your Wheaties pissed in, sorry bout that. I still stand by my original statement and it's still every bit as valid. Thank you and come again. But don't ask for your money back because I ain't giving it to you.

I don't think I've been aggressive....I simply find fault with a person willingly watching a movie that sucked, and then thinking it's OK to ask for a refund. What's so aggressive about that?

You are being over-analytical.

Wow! this thread has really brought out the prudes off of the planet.

JFC! It's just a lame movie!
