There isn't a point to going to theatures other then 3D as DVDs are cheaper and allow for repeat viewings with one price. I'd rather honestly pay $20 for a DVD I MIGHT only use once to a $10 movie ticket I CAN'T use more then once.

3D makes the movie ticket worth it's price.

Wow...seriously? It's $3 for a ticket down here. ^_~ Even if it was $10, I'd still go. I like the thrill of sitting there in the dark with that giant movie screen and surround sound. lol

They are down in the middle of nowhere. lol They might be $4, and if you go at night, it jumps to $6, but that's it. Still not bad if you ask me.

Last year I lived near a theater that showed movies for $2. The movies were old enough to have been out of most other theaters, but I believe new enough to not have been released on DVD yet.

Absolutely worth every cent of my $13. I'd pay it again.

3D felt more of an experience rather than flat entertainment. The acting was great, storyline was a rehash of many fairy tales but still enjoyable, the rendering was wonderful.. the actual environment created (in 3D) was fucking amazing. I can't wait to game in proper 3D. Real virtual world environments.. bring it on.

I feel over-tired, there's so much stuff I'd like to do but I won't have time for it all. For example I've missed the whole Crimbo season in KoL since I haven't had time to log in. Yesterday I logged in for a few minutes long enough to get the advent calendar items but that's all. Usually the season ends when the year ends, although last year it lasted longer than that. If I started playing now, I'd have three hours but if there is a quest available, I'm not sure if it's possible to finish in one day.

I just finished a game of Phase 10 that lasted for 2 years (har har)! But it's not all that bad. A girl kissed me for New Year's Eve, but it was my mom. But... I saw two amazingly beautiful woman today. One was Olivia Wilde and the other was Blake Lively. Both on TV. But only one is unmarried. Score! ;)

Hmm... 364 1/2 more days that can only look better! But six months of it will be amazing. Over 2,000 hiking the Appalachian Trail, starting in March/April. Yay twenty-ten!
