double feature...

alright so here was the plan: go see ocean's 12 @ 1205. it's a 2 hr 5 minute film. which would mean it'd end right before closer at 220. so the plan was to run to the bathroom after ocean's 12, refill our pop and head to closer at 220. yes we did have all that worked out. can't exactly plan a double feature without working out the details ahead of time now can we. so yeah, we entered the theatre and were stoked because there was only 1 ticket guy in the middle, which meant the plan would work out perfectly. or so we thought. after ocean's 12 we moved in to execution phase of our double feature plan. only to find that they added a 2nd ticket guy...one on the side of the theatre where ocean's 12 was and one in front of the closer theatre. immediate thought: uhhh houston we have a problem. follow up thought: we're screwed. it was time for plan b. at the time we had no plan b but lucky for us we just left a movie about breaking and entering. neto, quick on his toes, proceeds to ask the closer ticket man if we can just go thru and exit out that side. on our way to the exit we scope out the other theatres only to find that there is a 255 closer in a theatre around the corner from the ticket dude. plan b: hang out in our respective bathrooms right outside that theatre for 20 minutes. meet back up at 245 for the 255 showing of closer. despite a few panic attacks (we'd be the worst criminals ever) plan b worked like a charm. shhh don't tell.

and now for the afternoon reviews...

ocean's 12: fun, but no real plot. although with a cast like that and an opening scene that consists of a wet brad pitt you can't really go wrong.
closer: terrific. two thumbs up, yo.
worst preview: 'the pacifier'- vin diesel as jean claude van damme as mr. mom
best preview: 'the aviator'
preview most likely to cause you to break in to air piano: 'phantom of the opera'
preview most likely to give you the creeps: 'hide and seek'
worst movie i'll most likely see simply b/c it's got vince vaughn and the rock in it: 'be cool'
quote of the afternoon: neto: "blade trinity...sweet! lets get jessica biel on screen in some tight tank tops" me: "lets get ryan reynolds on me!"
