  2. the rural juror liked Jason Tate's post in the thread Movie Superman (James Gunn, July 11, 2025).

    Yeah, that was my first time in a theatre since ... hell, I forgot? Woulda been Far From Home I think, where my sister's boyfriend rented out a theatre during the tail end of Covid times I think? Took the day off work. 1pm show. Got there a few minutes early cause I have this stupid thing where I worry about missing anything. Good assigned seats. Only 8 people in the theatre (perfect! Friday at 1pm feels like a future winner time if I want to do this). 45 minutes of previews and ads. OMG. When did this become the norm and it needs to stop? The constant "content" playing while you wait is bad enough, it's just horrible ads and at least the local slideshows of my youth made me see local businesses, this was BRUTAL to sit through. 8 people. Two down to the left, for some reason moved from their assigned seats middle of the movie, to two rows back and to the left? I thought they were leaving at first. Two down to the right, super movie pros. Nerds! Two down the aisle from us, old men at the end of the aisle. Quiet. One in the very back of the theatre. One guy one row down two seats over from us. 8+ phone pick ups during the film. Had it on dark mode. Had brightness ALL the way down. Hid it with his hand. So trying to do the best he could. Still caught my eye every single time. :crylaugh: I'd do it again. But this exact same kinda setup, week after, middle of the day off work. Not for most movies. Maybe 2-3 at most. Still like movies at home in my tv room setup better for all the reasons I've said before. And also ... WHY PHONES? it's two hours ... come onnnnn people!

    Just watched this and outside of some good performances and a couple standout scenes, I thought it was kind of a mess tbh
