The wife and I had a date night! Dropped the kids off with the Grandparents and we went to a movie and to eat sushi. We saw Keeping Up With The Steins. A very funny movie, especially if you are Jewish (we are). Even funnier to us since our oldest son just had his Bar Mitzvah.

Even if you aren't Jewish, it is still a good movie! I highly recommend it. :applause:
 
Date night?? What's a date night??? LOL Oh Reddwarf, I have to tell you this joke. It's the best Jewish joke I know!

Everyone's at temple and the cantor is up there singing. He's singing so beautifully that the rabbi is moved and prostrates himself on the ground and says, "Oh Lord! Before You I am nothing!"

Mr. Wiseman in his seat looks on at this and so he too lays down on the floor and says, "Oh Lord! Before you I am nothing"

The rabbi elbows the cantor and says, "Look who thinks he's nothing!" LOL
 
Yeah, the wife and I use to see movies once or twice every weekend. In the past sixteen months since Christopher arrived ... -0-. While he may be priceless ... I really miss movies in the theatre.
 
LOL! We trade off. My husband goes one night and I go the other. That's how we're doing Superman this weekend.

I've heard of couples doing that. When I was a consultant and on the road every week I watched movies on the plane. I used Netflix and my laptop. I saw a ton of movies. Now I usually only get to see children's movies.
 
LOL! BTW Congrats to your son on his Bar Mitzvah. Does he feel all grown up now?

Home theater here:righton: Buy some nice home theater equipment(5.1 or 6.1 surround sound and don't forget the subwoofer!).....that's what we did and subscribed to Blockbuster online. Now we get to watch several movies a week in Dolby Digital DTS, 5.1, 6.1,etc. Sounds just like the theater but in the comfort of our home. Thanks to Mr. Orville Reddebocker, feels just like the theater:D Ah, what am I talking about, now we take the kids with us to the movies!!!!
 
Let's just say the last movies I saw in the theater were, Cars, Over the Hedge, Garfield the tale of two kitties and Nacho Libre. The next movie I'm going to see?? Monster House and Pirates of the Caribbean 2. :) Kids! Gotta love 'em. They take over your life, trash your house, suck up all your money like a black hole, give you a comprehensive lesson in sleep deprivation and then abandon you for their friends! Actually I'm lucky in that regard. My daughter sees me as a big play mate! LOL If she meets a new kid at the park she brings them over to meet me and tells them, "this is my mom! She's the best cook in the world! Do you want to come and eat chicken wings at my house, she'll make them for you!" LOL
 
did you say chicken wings? I'll have 20 hot.......thanks;-) Or honey BBQ? YUMMY!!!

The problem is "today you are a man, tomorrow you go back to 7th grade" He did such a good job at his bar Mitzvah I kept wondering whose kid that was up there!

Trust me that is covered, but still not a theatre. 7 Channels of DTS, and THX Certified Power (Klipsch/Onkyo) on 40 inches of flat screen bliss from the WEGA but it still is missing something. :confused:

I have Onkyo/Klipsch as well:righton: 7.1 is nice to have, but hardly any movies are released in that format(99% 5.1 and 6.1) How about the sub? I'm sure you have one.....makes an incredible difference in home theater. Maybe it's the 30-50 foot screen that's missing?? Or the $30 for soda and popcorn----and you get the candy FREE?;) Yeah, I agree, it's not the same but Onkyo and Klipsch should make it better---it did for me!:-)

I'm sorry, I see you said 7 channels of DTS, which IS 6.1:o My bad.
 
Movie theather prices are just getting insane!! The movie theather by me has 10.00 a ticket (not matinee) and 10.50 on fri & sat nights. Doesn't make any sense why you would want to pay that money to watch a movie, but still... people do it. Including me!! Ahhh... they have powers over us which we can't fight... BTW, my friend worked at the theater, and he said for the 6.00 large popcorn, it only costs them like 10 cents!!! WTF?!

I usually take the boys to the Dollar theather (also happens to be close by). I assume the profit for the place comes from the food sales. It cost us 3 bucks to get in, then $20+ for popcorn, candy, and drinks.

In Dallas the first run places are are $7.75 or $8.50 Friday & Saturday!
 
It is really expensive, even the matinee is 8 bucks. They must make all their money from food sales, but why all the increases in ticket prices?
 
I love it when girls want to go to the Premier here to watch a movie, $20 a ticket :rolleyes:
 
Up in Georgia where my mom lives the movies only cost $6.00. I saw 4 movies while I was up there! LOL
