So on a whim, I entered this little contest on Moviefone. They were offering passes to early screening of the new Clash of the Titans movie that comes out Friday. Passes that, more accurately, COULD get you into the early screening. The early screenings were only in select cities...one of them being Philadelphia. I may have issues with this year here, but I gotta say that THIS is one of the perks of a big city.
Anyhoo, I saw that there were already like 20 pages of entries, so I figured even if I entered, I'd have no chance of snagging a pass but I entered either way because I REALLY wanna see this movie but I REALLY don't want to pay the 15.50 cost of seeing it in 3D which is the ONLY way the theater close to me would have it.
Well...I won. But the contest kinda fibbed. Yeah, the early screening is in Philadelphia...an outside district of Philadelphia...like I live in the main city and the showing is in the frikkin burbs! Which left me woefully sad because I would have no way to get there since it was out of Bus and Subway range.
But....I realized that the theater it's at is the same one my lone Philly friend took me to, to see Avatar in 3D IMAX....and it just so happens that she wants to see it too! And the pass is for me and a friend...so HUZZAH! I'm going!
Well, hopefully we'll get in...I get off work at 5. At which time I'm going to hop on the subway and take it all the way to the last stop where she's going to pick me up and hopefully we'll be at the theater by 6:20ish and hopefully that will be more than enough time to get there and claim our seats.
So here's hoping the scheduling works because there's no better way to spend a Monday night (well, other than watching Chuck) than to see Sam Worthington running around in Greek armor...IN 3D!
In other fangirl squeeage, I'm finally getting around to watching Nathan Fillion's show "Castle." I had been putting it off because I had no real access to the first season of episodes outside of forking over a lot of dough for them. And as much as I love Captain Tightpants, I didn't like the price tag for the episodes. I lucked out though. An online friend of mine likes the show, among others, and posts the episodes weekly. So I now have access to all of season 1 and what's aired of season 2! So, that's what I'll be doing the rest of the evening. Can't think of a better way to spend a lazy Saturday Night!
So, until next time, this is me signing off!
