Like, did the girl get possessed and kill her family? Too random... Speaking of random, yes, the other children. You're right about them as well. <br /><br />Definately effective and entertaining film. Odd... I was thinking what this film would've been like with the peanut gallery soundtrack behind it!<br /><br />I'm convinced: we think alike sometimes.Ashlee Blackwellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01530884243523757687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1003758772971289930.post-44883458989541817762011-05-21T11:16:20.221-04:002011-05-21T11:16:20.221-04:00Kangas!

Not sure why I never got notification of your comment. <br /><br />Anyhoo, Insidious is definitely a film that could be ruined by people not understanding cellular technology, but for me it was worth it to be in a theater of screaming teenagers. <br /><br />I had no idea bout the low budget going into the film and I suppose they must have used the majority of it for the final sequence. Personally that's where the film felt a tad cheap, but I don't even know that money was the issue there. Looking forward to the eventual DVD.deadlydollshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06061028044836745499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1003758772971289930.post-21547207811118861262011-04-05T15:01:45.412-04:002011-04-05T15:01:45.412-04:00Eh.

Ah, nostalgia.<br /><br />And yes, popcorn is better there, mostly because (as someone who made it and still has a scar from where I burned my arm on the machine 13 years ago), the secret is a lot more salt and fake butter.

Love the smell of popcorn, seeing the posters for what's coming out, noting the emergency exits, all that jazz. Even after working in one (for a fateful 4 months at the age of 16) I'm still completely seduced by a crowded theater on a Friday night. <br /><br />HOWEVER, I too just go less and less, primarily for the time considerations. It's going to take me minimum of 30 minutes to get to any theater, then I have 20 minutes of previews, plus another 30 to get home. In that time, I could've watched THREE movies in the comfort of my home on my own big screen. It's just so hard to justify, particularly when I know I'll be surrounded by cell phones or that any film I see can be in my DVD player in three months.<br /><br />Still, theaters smell fun. I like cold dark places. Much like my relationship with Beverly Hills 90210, I will never ever really let go, though my interest and enthusiasm in later years will inevitably wane.deadlydollshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06061028044836745499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1003758772971289930.post-44401243469840441622011-04-04T15:30:35.617-04:002011-04-04T15:30:35.617-04:00The last movie I saw in the theater was Land of th...The last movie I saw in the theater was Land of the Dead (2005)..It used to be a fun night out..<br />Cell phones:I don't understand why people need to be connected 24/7 to technology..its rather disturbing.<br /><br />As far as this film goes, I definetly will be checking it out when it hits the small screen.tangerinedream9noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1003758772971289930.post-60983337845579132562011-04-04T14:06:07.553-04:002011-04-04T14:06:07.553-04:00Man, I love the idea of a movie theater only servi...Man, I love the idea of a movie theater only serving quiet food.

I have next to no hearing in my left ear and I still found the volume too loud. I spent most of the movie with a hand over my good ear and was able to hear the movie just fine through my almost non-functioning one. <br />Perhaps theaters could place a "Courtesy Bin" outside their theaters requiring people to unwrap their noisy snacks before entering? Maybe they could require popcorn and nachos to be so sodden with fake cheese and/or grease as to allow it to silently squish with each bite?Davenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1003758772971289930.post-75326716468948897612011-04-04T11:42:23.170-04:002011-04-04T11:42:23.170-04:00But damnit, now I really just want nachos...But damnit, now I really just want nachos...deadlydollshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06061028044836745499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1003758772971289930.post-631315197435449352011-04-04T11:42:09.086-04:002011-04-04T11:42:09.086-04:00The theater department of my college used to have ...The theater department of my college used to have a standard announcement before each show: Please silence your cell phones and candy wrappers.
