Movies, Vince Gill & The Apple

You must be thinking what the hell kind of a blog title is that.....ah keep reading my friends.

2 tickets to Harry Potter - $14.75
popcorn & two sodas - $11.25
having to sit through 7 minutes of commercials before the previews......ANNOYING!

It seems it has become a delicate timing issue to arrive at the movie theater in time to see the preview but miss the commercials.

At first the "hidden commercials" came a few years ago. They were the ones with the mini movies for coke etc. Then last year American Express had the Robert Deniro and Ellen Degeneres ones. Okay I can stomach both sets of those, they didn't annoy me. However, when I have to sit through a 60 visual throw up of Snuggle softener, Fe-breeze, and something else well I get simply pissed. Where am I at???? Home in the middle of the day with soap operas on? Seriously! Oh and then there is the Vince Gill sell out.......not that I am a huge Vince Gill fan, but I did respect him as a musician.....that is until now, after I was forced to sit through 60 seconds (it felt like 3 minutes) of him singing some fucking underwear ballad with the Apple from the Fruit of the Loom brand. Did someone, somewhere find this amusing???? Worse yet I realize that I PAID to see this!

Thank God we finally got to the previews where once I saw the preview for Get Smart it totally changed my mood. Harry Potter by the way was COMPLETELY AWESOME!
