My little boy left me soooooo tired today. So I unwound in the cinema. I watched 'Fright Night 3D' which was a good film, better than the original all round. I say all round.. The 3D was pointless. Most of the scenes are dark, so take away the effect. 3D just looks like more 2D elements stood closer to the viewer. I want properly rounded vision as if they are touchable. They all look like cardboard cutouts.
Then I had to stand among the throng of cinema goers who need a bucket of popcorn and a gallon of liquid to be able to sit for ninety minutes. I got my ticket for 'The Guard'. The audience was over fifty. There were approximately twenty people. The man on the front row with me had a radio earpiece in from his phone. Between trailers I could hear the music and dj. Then before the film began, the guy was snoring quietly for over an hour. What was that all about? An escape from the wife? To top it off the black comedy really tickled one couple. They laughed and guffawed at the slightest amusing remark as if they had been planted. It made me, and I imagine everyone else, feel like we were boring. I cringed. I drove home like a bullet to get away from everyone. I'm still tired so I may go up soon even though it's not ten pm.
