Extra Security Needed...Oh Great!

I stopped by work yesterday to see a movie. I found out that we are going to have extra security for the release of "Resident Evil". This is just great! In other words...We the employees are going to be treated like shit.

Of course as in the past, Friday night will be all the black kids treating everyone like they are shit. They will be shocked to find out we card for rated R movies even though we've done this for a year now. The kids are the same ones, they do this every weekend, they show no respect for anyone. I'm sure I'll be cussed out by them as well as their "parent" (the one they begged outside to get their tickets).

Saturday will be white night. In this I mean that all the kids will be white and treat us the same as the Friday night group. The only exception is the white kids will treat us as if they are better than us. They too will be shocked that we card them. The exception is that they will expect us to let them in because we should. What a joke. HELLO!!!!!

Then all of them will be spending majority of their time in the lobby trying to either sneak a friend in or being loud. The police will tell them to get to their movie but they will only take 10 minutes to do it. Of course they turn around and go right back to the lobby.

I can go on forever about this, but I'll wait until this weekend to give a detailed account of the action. Until then, happy movie watching. By the way, NEVER, EVER, EVER see a horror or thriller movie on opening weekend in the evening. You won't enjoy it.

In the Beginning

In a Midwest town sits a building. Pretty in design, colorful and welcoming to the public. Once inside you pick your pleasure from a selection of 12. Depending on your age, you may not be able to enjoy your pick. This is when the fun begins. Every weekend someone tries to be cute, funny, rude or offensive. Where are you? At the movie theater. I will be sharing with you a variety of experiences and movie reviews.

My background is simple. I've been in the entertainment industry for about 17 years off and on. I've been to conventions and have met several movie stars. I have a huge collection of films and currently have seen every movie playing at the theater I work in.

But my tale is not always about the industry...I want to share with you the hell I sometimes go through with the public. I look forward to you sharing your experiences as well (good & bad). Of course I have to share some reviews also. I hope you enjoy my take of "A Night at the Movies".
