I first encountered it this weekend. My wife and I decided to go see Gone Girl and it was sold out. I heard someone at the window say something about assigned seats. I went home and checked online and sure enough, you selected your seats from a map of the theater.

Yeah, they had large touch-screen monitors that they flipped around for you to select your seats once you've picked the movie and start time. I thought it was pretty slick.

Finally saw Lone Survivor last weekend. I've read the book, but put the movie off for some reason. I would love to ask why they felt the need to have a battle scene at the end that didn't happen when what did happen was just as suspensful. Ok Maybe it wouldn't have been as dramatic as rpgs and blackhawks, but still really intense. Or why they felt the need to bring him back from the dead. Unless he told them something the book didn't, that didn't happen either. I wish they could have put some more in there about his training and following his parents while they were waiting to hear news. Overall a good movie, but they veered from a true story unnecessarily.

so we rented a million ways to die in the west..
I give it a B- (If I had paid $10/tix to see it I would defin give it a D)
I think there is just too much Seth McFarlane in the movie, it gets better once Theron gets involved.. there are some good one liners in there..
"Why are the Indians always so pissed off"? Yeah I mean we are splitting the land with them 50-50
& there is a great Back 2 the Future reference!

Watched alot of scifi lately. Oblivion, Elysium and Edge of Tomorrow. I would give them all an A-. Edge of Tomorrow and Oblivion ended the exact same way with the exact same actor, but still pretty good.
Also so saw Olympus has Fallen. SUCKED OUT LOUD. It was like Die Hard with different actors. Way overblown bad guys with very lucky timing and too much inside knowledge. Way too talented good guy (singular that fought off a N. Korean hoard). Inept local police/army. Poorly timed comedic one liners. I had high hopes for this one, but it fell way short. D-.

we redboxed 3 movies yesterday to use up mcdonalds monopoly prizes that expire today. It was a super raining day so we spent it as a family movie day, with some football mixed in.
Earth to Echo -- Not what I was expecting at all. A little disappointed and it was rather stupid. The map treasuring seeking feel of Goonies with out the plot. Mr snick said it had The Chronicle feel to it too.
Mr peabody and sherman -- we saw this at the drive in when it came out. Cute kid movie with some history lessons.
The 4th transformer movie-- definitely interesting, better than the last one. Felt super long. Lots of CGI, I don't remember that much green fluid spewing when transformers get injured/killed. Kept waiting for the stanley tucci car scene that was in all the previews...definitely funnier in the previews than in the movie.
