Watchmen @ the drafthouse
Jun. 2nd, 2009 01:19 pmWe have been meaning to go catch a dollar movie at the local theater & drafthouse for the last year and half. We drive past it nearly every time we go out of the house thinking next week, next week. Something or the other had come up and we never went until yesterday evening! It was a first time for me. Comfy enough chairs and food being served as you catch the movie. We got to see what I thought was a horrible movie, Watchmen. Maybe if I read the comics it might have made more sense. But there was just too much violence for my taste, too many bones being broken, etc. than dialogue spoken. eeks.
The theater experience itself was cool! We will definitely go again another time. On Fridays they have wine-tasting as you catch a movie! And the prices are reasonable as well to go once in a while! Only grumble is that smoking is allowed indoors. Yesterday the theater was almost full and only 2-3 of 80 people were smoking. I think the ventilation is good but still it takes only one wiff to send me off with twitchy nose.
We did though enjoy a yummy brownie fudge sundae, which we needed to cool our stomachs down after having spicy vada pav at home for dinner! Tonight for dinner I am planning to make Chinese food Indian style with Malaysian/Singaporean style bok choy! My mouth is already watering!
