- I have to admit, I thought walking into a movie marathon that was going to take over 10 hours would be filled with nothing but loners and the biggest of movie geeks. I also thought there would only be about 20 of us in the theater. I was very wrong.
- At least about most of that. There are over 300 people in the theater. Most if who came armed with blankets, pillows and the extra large popcorn, which I just discovered have free refills. I'm pretty sure I'm the only lone wolf in the joint. Most people have found a like minded fool to do this with and everyone is in a pretty great mood.
- We all got cool lanyards and programs when we walked in. There is an mc who announced there would be trivia between flicks. The first flick, Philomena started right at 12.
- This one surprised me, the crowd is here to have a good time and really enjoyed the dry, Irish humor. I really enjoyed this flick. I've now seen 4 best pic nominees. I'm pretty sure my 3 favorites are this one, captain Phillips and gravity. Pretty sure in that order. American hustle is certainly #4 on my list.
- We have a 20 minute break before Dallas buyers club. Not sure about this one but I hope it's good.
- Probably the best news from the first flick is I didn't fall asleep and my bladder held out. I did have to rush off to the bathroom as the credits rolled, so I missed the trivia this time. Bummer. The movies only get longer from here, wish me luck.
