Classic Silliness

So on this Friday night four of us friends went to watch the movie No Country for Old Men (http://www.nocountryforoldmen.com/). The movie was suppose to start at 10:15. We got there by 10:25. One of my friends wanted pop-corn with butter ( rather butter with pop-corn i should say;), another friend said yeah sure they should be running trailers, the movie should start in a bit. So 3 minutes (and added butter later) we enter the theater to find it jam packed. There was not a single empty seat in sight...so we walked to the absolute front. We did find seats there but it was impossible to enjoy the movie from that perspective... We had to look up to see the screen...and it was way too close. So after straining my neck for the next few minutes and trying all sorts of funny ways to make myself comfortable on that seat I got up and left for the back of the room. There on the floor in the corner i found a nice comfortable spot. Finally I started enjoying the movie.

The movie seemed very interesting...rather confusing...lots seemed to be happening but i was lost...maybe they will introduce these characters later in the movie.

20 minutes later i see all three of my friends walking to the back of the room towards me. Finally their necks must hurt too i thought. But no, the issue was that the movie had started at 9!

Strange isn't it. What's wrong with this place. We came outside, looked at our tickets and it said movie starts 10:15. And the staff had left the place now. Just then one of us figured we were in hte wrong theater...there were two of them! Tsk tsk tsk :)

So we went to the one we should have gone to originally!

And oh btw...the movie was interesting. Though it was one i would have seen in fast play back home :P

Rehan's little observation

So I asked Rehan why a popular tv shows website was not working to which he gave me the following long answer which was worth every word i read :D

Rehan: I generally use youtube/veoh for more anime

One of the world's most-used pirate film websites has been closed after providing links to illegal versions of major Hollywood hits and TV shows.

The first closure of a major UK-based pirate site was also accompanied by raids and an arrest, the anti-piracy group Federation Against Copyright Theft (Fact) said today.

A 26-year-old man from Cheltenham was arrested on Thursday in connection with offences relating to the facilitation of copyright infringement on the internet, Fact said.

The arrest and the closure of the site - www.tv-links.co.uk - came during an operation by officers from Gloucestershire County Council trading standards in conjunction with investigators from Fact and Gloucestershire Police.

We should use PaS has a forum to protest about this
