What are you waiting for?
I went out for my steak last night. Dinner was very good, and Outback was doing a deal where if you bought 100 in gift cards you got $20 bonus card. I had wanted to get a gift card for my mom anyway, so I did the deal, so it looks like I'll be going for another dinner in the future.
I got over to the theater at 9:00 for the 10:00 show, and it was sold out. The next available showing was 10:50 in 3d but not IMAX. (They said they had a non 3-D, non Imax show earlier, but I cut the girl off right there) So I figured, well I want it in IMAX and 3D, this is my birthday present to myself, and I am not going to take anything less than what I want. My new plan; go to Blockbuster, rent the first movie, and get myself up for the new one.
Blockbuster didn't have a copy, they checked the computer, and none of the stores around had many copies, or if they did, they were out of stock. By this time the snow was coming down, but what the hell. I went to Best Buy, I'll buy the freakin' thing! They don't have a single copy either! I tried Barnes and Noble, because they were close, but again, no joy!
So I came home to find out what the deal was. Turns out, Disney didn't want to release the first version, they don't want to hurt the box office for the new movie, so they will not put anything out until 2011. I admit the first movie wasn't the greatest story ever told, but for computer animation it was absolutely ground breaking. When describing Tron, I say it's not the content of it's character, its the character of it's content that is the draw.
So here I am, movie-less and I wanted some Tron action, what is a computer geek to do? If you were to say a word that rhymes with "my rat" you'd be correct. Downloaded super fast too :)
I went ahead and already bought my tickets for tonight's show, my birthday is back on!
