Our Movie Adventure (Not that anyone really cares)
Sunday, July 11, 2010
Alright, so the other day, me Deva and Vibhav decided to go see a movie. BUT Deva was like 'Oh I have to see it after 2:00 which was kinda inconvenient, because 2 was such a silly time. BUT unfortunately for us, that was the only time that was possible for us. So we went on the internet and looked up movies that we could watch. And surprise surprise, there was nothing to watch at that time except for Shrek, Predators and Eclipse. So Deva wanted to watch Eclipse, and Vibhav REALLY didn't want to (or so he said). And I REALLY did not want to see Shrek. And so Predators it was.
The next day at 2:15 I arrived at the cinemas, and Vibhav was like 'Predators is actually on at 3:40! Not 2:40!' And I was like 'WHAT!' Because I clearly remembered that I saw it was on at 2:40. I looked again in disbelief, and to my surprise (not really surprise) I was right again! Vibhav was silly and had misread the sign. So we were like, 'Lets line up so that we can get tickets' when it got to us, the lady was like, 'Show me your ID!' and I was like :O because I didn't bring my wallet, and I didn't have ID and I got really confused as to why ID was needed because I didn't know that the movie was MA15+. I thought that she wanted to see my ID because I was buying a student ticket, which didn't make any sense, because I was using some movie voucher we had at home, and it was an adult. And then I realised my mistake, and we were like 'Sorry', turned around (and saw the massive line of angry faces behind us, ready to smash us for making their wait longer) and walked off. And Deva STILL wasn't here yet. So we waited.
And then Vibhav was like 'Hey! It's Deva! - Oh wait no, it's just some other lanky guy' And then we waited some more, and then Vibhav was like 'Hey! It's Deva!' And it was Deva! And then we broke the news to Deva, and in the end we had no choice ... but to watch ... Shrek. =/
SO we stood in the line again, and purchased three tickets to see Shrek Fo(u)rever and After. And then we went and bought something to eat. Deva looked at the popcorn machines and was like 'Wow! Self serve!' But for some reason, even though he realised that it was self serve he still went and asked the guy for a medium sized popcorn, and made himself look like an idiot.
THEN we decided that maybe we'd do something really rebellious and sneak in to watch predators! :O How rebel. Deva was so excited, and he was jumping up and down exclaiming 'Yeah! Yeah! Let's sneak in!' and Vibhav was too scared, and was like 'No! That's dodgy' (or something) and so in the end, we decided that we woulddddd SNEAK IN! And then we realised that we had no idea which cinema Predators was in and we were like dayumm. So, we walked into the place where our cinema was (we were cinema 8) and we snuck in to EVERY cinema there was ! (there were four .. ) Two were empty and one had a sign that said session in progress. And so it was OBVIOUSLY the one with the sign! But unfortunately, noone wanted to sneak into that cinema with me .. so we had to watch Shrek.
There was still about 10 minutes before our session started, and there were all these little kids lining up outside the cinema eagerly, waiting for the session to start, their parents frustrated and extremely annoyed about the prospect of having to watch SHREK x_x with their kids, and we decided that we were really thirsty and we wanted to get a drink. So we walk back into that place where you buy stuff and get ripped off (I forgot what it was called) And then, we get our drinks, while we wait for Deva to choose whether he wants a medium, a small or a large, or whether he wants frozen or not frozen blahblahblah. Then we realise, Oh no! We're still carrying the popcorn! They might think that we're shoplifting! :O So we went to the person who was serving us and explained to them that we had purchased the popcorn beforehand - and they just looked at us like we were idiots ... (well, we kinda were)
Then, after allllll that - we walked into the cinema and OMFG. STUPID DEVA, UPON BUYING THE TICKETS, DID NOT CHOOSE SEATING. And we had to sit in the THIRDDDDD row. :'( Sigh. What a disaster. I mean, having to watch Shrek is bad enough .. but THIRD ROW D: But yes. We craned our necks and the movie started. Yes ... this story is getting boring now. So I'll end it here :)
