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.

So you went and demanded your money back for a service you recieved?

It doesn't matter if the movie was fantastic or terrible, you viewed it, it's kind of out of line to demand your money back...

I disagree. I have never before asked for a refund after viewing a movie. Had it been anyone else other than Lucas, Spielberg, and Ford... we would have walked out in the first 15 minutes.

If I am not satisfied with the product presented, why in the hell should I not get my money back?

Because it isn't the theatre's fault the movie didn't live up to your expectations. It wasn't as if you went to a community theatre house and watched a shitty play, and demanded your money back. The theatre just facilitates the viewing of the movie.

They have no say if it's going to be a blockbuster or a bust.

Well, I can't disagree with this. The theatre purchases the rights to show the movie. Getting a refund hurts the theatre, not the film maker. I guess watching the whole thing and then requesting a refund is iffy.

I don't see a problem requesting a refund within the first half though. I do think it should be the entire first half though, because some movies just start off slow.

This forum has really turned into a demonstration of a lot of things wrong with today's society. In the past week we've had one guy who act like his kids baseball coach is an axe murderer because he said the word "sux"....another guy threatening to get his neighbors evicted because they sit in their own garage, and now this asswipe requesting refunds from a movie theatre for something they had nothing to do with.

Actually from the way ive always understood it, movie theaters make most of their money off of concessions than the actual movie tickets. Most of that goes back to the moviemakers. PR never said how much money he spent on soda, popcorn etc.....??

You should have figured out by the time the movie was half over that it was going to be a huge disappointment.

If I had been the manager, I would have lughed when you asked for the refund and kicked your dumb ass out of my theatre.

you didnt really ask for the money back did you? Watching a movie and returning something physical, like a GPS...is something entirely different. At least the store can resell it.

But they cant warp the movie out of your mind. You paid to watch the movie...the sale is done.

It's like the fatboy asking for his money back after eating the entire meal, he didnt eat have to eat the whole thing.

This reminds me of customer I had when I waited tables at Red Lobster while I was in college. It was all you can eat snow crab night. This fat ass comes in and eats 6lbs of snow crabs. When I bring the check to him, he demands to see the manager. So, I get the manager and he complains that these were the worst snow crabs he's ever eaten and demands his $16.99 back. The manager pretty much laughed in his face and told him that if there was a problem, that he should have complained earlier.

There's more than one way to steal from a business without actually thieving.

So, you're the guy that eats an entire steak and then returns it because it wasn't cooked correctly?

Because you consumed it entirely. There is nothing remaining to refund against.

If you ate the whole hamburger would you expect your money back??

Now if you would have walked out in the first 30 mins or smoething then fine.. The theatre should have allowed you to go see another movie for free...
