Occasionally movie day
Last night, just before I went to bed, I decided to make today my “movie day”. I spent a few hours trying to make a timetable based on a movie schedule. This is what I get.
I chose Paragon Cineplex cuz there are so many movies available. I do love Lido, but with very few movies left to see, I crossed over to the expensive side. I wanted to see at least 4 movies today, so I picked Paragon.
Thanks to “oh-so-fancy” cinema, I can only manage to see 3 films today. What seems to be the problem? Well, the price is the main issue. Normal seat cost 140 – 160 B while lido charge you 100-120 B plus a stamp card to redeem one free seat every 10 stamps.
Since Paragon is so fancy, they offer you a very special seating in a very special theatre. I’m trying to see the reaping at 13:00 but it would cost 600 B per seat … so I change my plan to 23 at 13:25 …. the theatre is even more fancy and it cost 3,000 B for 2 seats.
My plan was forced to change right in front of the box office staff. I don’t have much time to think so I took Hannibal Rising at 14:00, and that left me 1 free hour.
Another reason is because Paragon is sooooo commercial. Before the movie really starts, you have to watch 40 mins of coming attraction movie trailers and advertisements. [that’s less than 10 mins of trailers and ½ hour of ad.] While lido offers you 10 mins of trailers+ads. The less time you wasted, the more time you can spend on movies.
I wasted almost 4 hours on commercial and Paragon’s crappy schedule. I only managed to see 3 films which I’ll talk about later on.
I am so confused, your entertainment always seems to require so much more charting, graphing and planning than mine! *laughs* am i doing something wrong? :P (Comment this)
