Shelly and I went to the movie Zodiac last night. The theater was nearly packed with mostly men and couples, so it was a bit obvious when two teenage girls talking on cell phones walked into the movie 20 minutes late.
Shelly turned to me, "Why would you even come to a movie like this if you are 20 minutes late?"
I agreed especially since they had already missed the first victims meeting their demise and the opening which told the viewer this was a true story. You just had to know they were going to be lost the rest of the movie, plus the only reason they were probably there was to see Jake Gyllenhaal.
The movie was very good, one of the best I have seen since The Departed, I read the book and the prime suspect was much creepier on the screen than I imagined in real life.
At the end of the movie, Shelly stopped by the ladies room and I waited outside. The two teenage girls we saw walk in late also went to the ladies room with cell phones glued to their ears already. At our theater the doorway is open so you can hear everything going on inside of the facilities. When the girls entered the bathroom they ran into an acquaintance.
"Oh, my God. How are you?" High pitch screaming followed. "What did you just see?"
"Zodiac," the acquaintance answered.
"Oh, my God. So did we. That was the dumbest movie I have ever seen in my life. It was like so crap," she exclaimed. "I thought the ending was the #*&$(*%@ stupidest ever."
Shelly walked out of the bathroom shaking her head. We looked at each other in disbelief these girls could be so clueless to share their stupidity and movie review with the entire ladies room.
But, she wasn't finished, "I wanted them to like catch the guy. I don't know why they didn't end it that way. It was so stupid"
Well, that would be because it was a true story and in "real life" they didn't catch the Zodiac.

I think I like this one better, but maybe b/c I'm more used to it.
I don't like scary movies, but Drew and Hugh were sweet and cute in Music and Lyrics last night...
we all need to admit our blog obsession.
