This past weekend was quite big for movies and DVDs. Josh and I went to see the 300 on Saturday morning. New York City movie prices are horrible and Manhattan theaters don't have matinees, so you wind up paying about $11 per ticket no matter what time of day you go. Luckily, we go to the movies in Brooklyn now and it's $7.50 per ticket before noon. None of those NJ "matinees are before 6pm" deals.
When Josh started saying that he wanted to see 300 a couple months ago, I said that I'd go to see the practically naked guys flex their muscles in leather codpieces. In the end, I was pleasantly surprised to find that the movie is really good, considering I thought SinCity was just okay. 300 has a better message for the audience, and we had a good crowd that day. It was probably too early for the teenaged assholes. During the end of one of the battle scenes, another viewer in the audience shouted, "SPARTA!" and we all cracked up.
After the movie, we went to Manhattan and picked up Borat (who knew flourescent green suspender thongs for men were so hilarious?) and the first 8 seasons of South Park.
