Ok, so last night I went to the first (and only) theatrical release of The Boondock Saints. If any of you have seen this movie, you know that it was not wasted money. The movie is straight genious, and soon there will a sequel... All Saints Day! Excellent...
But, now on to the gripes...
First, the audience. Yes, I know the movie is funny. Yes, I laughed hysterically the FIRST time I saw the movie... and this is what pisses me off. Damn near everyone in the theater is cracking up at the little stuff. What does that tell me? That this place was FULL of people who had NEVER SEEN THE MOVIE!
When something like this happens and a cult movie finally gets a huge theater release, I expect only the hardcore fans to turn up. This was obviously not the case. But, this release is something that I, as a die hard fan, have been waiting for, and I would expect the same out of this fan base. So that was probably more upsetting than it really should have been, but I mean seriously... WTF.
Anyway, the movie, was awesome, of course, and the nachos at the theater were quite enjoyable.
