Went to see "Guardians of the Galaxy" on Sat. night.

9:30 p.m. show.

Got into the theater early to get a good seat. So, the movie starts... no video, but there's sound. They re-start the movie. It runs for about 20 minutes, then the video cuts out again.

They say they're having technical difficulties. Really?! They offer to let us transfer to the 10:20 showing, but it's in the same theater.

I opt to take my refund, because I don't want to wait and it's in the same damn theater.

Fucking ruined a nice night out.

I saw Guardians Of The Galaxy there. Assigned seat, full bar, and no fucking commercials! It's ruined me for going to regular theaters anymore.
