Nobody Wants Him

They just turn their heads
Nobody helps him
Now he has his revenge

I kept waiting for the song and it didn’t show up until the credits, that was my only complaint. We went over to Augusta to see the movie in a nice theater with stadium seating instead of the little shoe boxes available here in Aiken. It was showing on 5 screens with a choice of start times of noon, 12:30, 1:00, 1:30, 2:00, so we went over and shopped a bit before getting lunch knowing that when we were ready there would a movie start time waiting for us.

We finished lunch at 12:25 and with the short walk to the the theater we figured we’d see the one o’clock showing. We bought tickets, used the restroom, hit the concession stand and started towards our theater. As we did we passed right by the one showing the 12:30 running, I paused and listened. It was 12:40 something and they were still running previews, so we went inside. Caught the end of the trailer for the new Batman flick and one for another totally forgettable movie, before the screen went dark and AC/DC’s Back in Black started playing. We were lucky in another way because the 12:30 showing theater was the one showing it via DLP.

I’m a sucker for movies based on comic books and knew I’d like this movie just from the trailer. I was not disappointed and thoroughly enjoyed this movie. My wife, who still hasn’t forgiven me for making her see the Michael Keaton Batman movie and rolled her eyes at the first Fantastic Four movie, actually sort of liked it too. So stop what you are doing right now and go see this movie. Seriously. Go.

Started down, went up, still up.
