“Are you sure this is the right theater?”
Stan looked at the tickets. “Yes, we’re in the right place.”
“Are we that early?”
“No, we’re right on time.”
“So where is everyone?”
“I don’t know.”
“Did this movie get decent reviews?”
“It got a 12 on Rotten Tomatoes.”
“That explains it all.”

For those of you who are unfamiliar with Rotten Tomatoes, it’s an app that rates movies on a scale of zero to one hundred based upon critic and movie goer reviews.

Was the movie Ishtar or Howard the Duck?

I liked Ishtar. But that’s because I like Dustin Hoffman and Warren Beatty.

On the bright side, they had the place to themselves. Hopefully, this is not a first date! That would be a bit creepy IMHO. 😉

I don’t like multiplex or cinema Halls. Infact never been to one in my youth. Avoided it at all costs.

When I was a kid I went to theatre and man the smoking, I almost chocked. Since then I hate multiplex and theatres (or crowded places). So never visited them again till now.
