mixed reviews from my friends about that one." HP trailer was first,
and was totally worth our $4.75. Good thing, too, because Chris and
I WALKED OUT not even 30 minutes into the movie. It was the worst
ever. I went into great detail about this in my previous post (that
got trashed), but this post is running so long that I'll just stop
there.

Grrr...in the last two days, I've seen AI and America's Sweethearts,
and no HP trailer. I think I've only ever walked out of one movie,
which was Shock Treatment, the sequal to the Rocky Horror Picture
show, which my second college boyfriend talked me into seeing at the
the Student Activities Center (so it only cost us a dollar each,
fortunately).
A movie I dearly WANTED to walk out of was Buckaroo Bonzai in the 8th
Dimension (or a title similar to that--I disliked this so much I
suppose I can't be bothered to remember the correct title now). I
stayed because my third college boyfriend (who became my husband)
wanted to stay. We now allow each other to go see movies alone that
the other person doesn't want to see. EVERY couple should have this
policy (as long as there are SOME movies that you can still agree on
seeing together--if not, you have bigger issues to fry).
Actually, I came pretty close to walking out of AI during the slapped-
on ending. I really think it should have stopped with the android
boy sitting and gazing at the blue fairy forever and a day...The rest
was really draggy and boring and frankly FELT like an eternity...
