Movie Madness

So, I have just returned from an exciting adventure to see The Dark Knight once again. I enjoyed the thrill so much the first time that I had to see it one more time. I had planned to wait until it was out in the dollar theater, but when a friend said that he wanted to see it, I decided to go today. So, the credits had played through very nicely- I enjoyed the preview for Twilight even though they are changing the story (ugh! I hate when movies change the book's story!!). And, no, Edward is not handsome enough for the part. Cedric Diggory doesn't quite cut how my imagination had described Edward. And, yessir, I really do appreciate the picture my imagination gave me... But anyway, I was in the theater, watching The Dark Knight, and we had only gotten 5 minutes into the movie when the fire alarm goes off. So, the lights slowly come back, and everyone just sits in their seats, waiting for the movie to start again. But after a few minutes they realize that it's not. So they, grunting with displeasure, rise to their feet to leave. They apparently had to close the theater for two hours before they could open again- it takes two hours to find and fight the imaginary fire? Why do people pull fire alarms? But, fear not, I went back a couple of hours later to use the rain checks they gave us. However, because I didn't use my ticket, I now have a pass to a movie. I will probably use it for X files or anything else that looks good that I can't think of right now. I also want to go see The Hulk and Prince Caspian in the dollar theater.
I have recently found the wonder of Pandora, and am making a list of songs that I want. I really like listening to "Bubblegum Oldies" and am currently listening to "Billy Joel Radio" even though 'Maneater' by Hall & Oates is currently playing- a very good song. I also like "Oldies Soul", "Pop/Rock", "Motown" and my usual favorites- Weird Al, Michael Buble, Me First and the gimme gimmes, and a million other artists that I can't think of at this time and place. I love music, sweet sweet music.
