I saw many bad movies in college because there would be free preview screenings on campus.
One such was While You Were Sleeping. I eventually found it insufferable and left.
As far as movies I paid to see, I would have liked to walk out of Secrets & Lies and Baby Driver but was with people whom I thought might have been enjoying them.

I went to see much-recommended Nosferatu today. The ticket taker told me theater 8, just like she told the people ahead of me, so that’s where I went. I sit in my seat H4 and before the show someone sits in H5. Im wondering why this person bought the seat next to me. Then someone sits in H3 and I’m thinking maybe we all bought tix at the same time. Then all the previews are horror movies. Then finally the movie starts on a sunny day in LA where a diner waitress is getting off the night shift and I’m thinking this is interesting! And then the title comes up One of Them Days and I feel silly for wondering about these people on either side of me. I stayed and watched and it’s a fun movie!

The Phantom Menace isn’t the worst movie in the world but man, I really enjoyed being 1 of 9 in a theater; have my phone go off during what would be a pivotal scene if i were 15 again. probably will never watch it again, but it was worth my $18. atleast I got discounted candy !

Last Monday I took a day off work (paid!) to go to the cinema with my friend and watch three films all in one go - A Complete Unknown, Babygirl and Nosferatu. We went out for coffees and dinner between films, but it was fun to make an outing of it while catching up on the newest films. Try and space out the screenings strategically so you don’t end up spending 12 hours out and about like we did.

The occupation persists, the oppression persists, the torture persists.
The occupiers are psychotic and their work is never finished.
People who’ve paid attention won’t be surprised by this photo from Gaza.
