"It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied. And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace

$10?
I wish. New York it's about $12 unless you take advantage of the one matinee showing for a new release. And if you're talking 3D or IMAX, you're paying close to $20 a ticket. This is why I hardly watch movies anymore.
Theater is too expensive and by the time they hit Blu Ray my excitement for the film has died and I forget about it.

Re: You know what really grinds my gears?
What's nice, is that the Costco here has a deal where you can buy 2 movie vouchers for $16.99 and redeem them at the box office at the theater.
It's a hell of a lot better than paying $10 and up for a single ticket by itself.Comment

People who make videos of sick stuff such as beheadings and animal cruelty for example.
And even worse are the people who watch them and share the nasty details about it later.

Agreed on the animal cruelty. Every time I see or read about neglected/abused dogs it makes me sick to my stomach and very upset.badComment

The invitee should never be expected to pay in any situation. That's like recruiting a prostitute and making her pay you. OK not totally the same but whateverWolverines Wings Same Old Lions Tigers Pistons Erika ChristensenComment

Can't prove they did it, you have situation where someone thought it would be clever to create a photocopy of the disk and replace it, could be the new renter, could have been the last renter, could have been an even prior renter if a subsequent renter just returned it after they discovered the ruse.Comment

Like...
Her - Dad wants to know if you want to come see Iron Man with us tomorrow night.
Me - Sure
24 hours later standing in line:
Cashier - I can take the next person in line.
Her - *Looks at me*
Me - *****ed*.
No mas.
Honestly, I don't mind paying so long as I'm asked. Being expected to pay gets under my skin like nothing else.
