Matinees are in Iowa between $5-5.50 depending on the theater. I only go to matiness because of it.
Saw Hoodwinked on Sunday and was very bored. Nowhere near as good as the Toy Story’s, Shreks, etc.

Dohopoki–I should have done the same thing at my college graduation–they completely flubbed up the reading of my last name (even after writing it phonetically in the easiest way possible), but my mom and my family members said that they BARELY said "Allison" right.
Al-is-sun. Jeez, not like its incredibly hard!

When I said Dough I should have said Doe, I didn’t mean to make it look like there is 2 H sounds.

Movies here are the typical $8.50, but you can catch a Matinee for $2 if you’re willing to venture into the Discount Cinema. Wednesdays you get free popcorn, but you gotta bring you own bag.
I was looking at a collection of 3D movies once and it came with a gadget that you hook up to the player and runs a cable to a set of LCD glasses, so you can get kind of a theme park type of 3D effect. I like odd stuff like that. You think they’ll ever release Jaws 3D in a special remastered disc with glasses? As for sound, the local Mal-Wart has those chairs with a powered sound system built-in on sale for 50. Imagine a projector, a seat with a speaker set-up and a Akira DVD. In a darkened room.

kingklash- I named my dog Tetsuo but not after the character. I just like the name. I think that he hates me.
Tetsuo!!!!

Mystie–BYOBBB (Bring your own brown bag, baby!). Ok, I can officially say with confidence that I stole that from "In Living Color." Blame my brother–he bought the DVDs from Season 2. Oh wait, blame me–I ASKED for Season 2. I bought Season 3 yesterday. Oh well, chalk one up to un-originality.
I was reading on Amazon.com that the Season 3 DVD has some major cuts–the music videos are all removed, and so is the "Music Video Special." That was one of the reasons I bought season 3. Why do you think I like that season so much–that was a GREAT special! At least the Bloopers special is there and intact, but I’m still looking forward to watching Season 3 anyway–I’m halfway through season 2 right now.

I’m assuming "Tetsuo" is an Animae character.

I named my cat after Catreece from Super Information Hijinks: Reality Check manga. Then I found out my cat was male. His name is still Catreece. He’s a transvestite. He’s also half-demon.

Allison- Yes, Tetsuo is a Japanese name and it was used in Akira, the only anime that I really like. Oh hell, I love it. It aint no series though. It be a film with plenty o’ death so it’s great for the kids. kingklash mentioned it so I had to type something because I’m just like that. You know a psycho.

I, Allison, said "BYOBB" and you better believe it’s not a typo hehe!
Yes, I know, that’s from the Simpsons.

Ohh, wait. BYOBBB!

I saw your website referenced on CNN like two weeks ago, but my computer committed suicide so I haven’t been able to say anything about it…
I’m totally jealous of everyone else’s awesome Christmas presents. All I got was a jar of candy, Britney Spears perfume (?!), gift certificates, and some knives.
My Christmas was redeemed by getting to see the overly Christmas decorated houses my friends and I trek to annually which include (but not limited to) "Disco Nativity" "Seizure Circus" and "Welfare Christmas Decorating 101"
