I could only make it through a little bit of The Matrix. I just have to start owning the fact that I fucking hate dystopian sci-fi unless it’s Blade Runner. Or Brazil. But not this. I really like Keanu Reeves, too, but the film just seemed silly to me, probably in part because I’m coming [...]

…at least for now. The beleaguered theater is using creative tactics to stay in business according to Seattlest. They decided that the best way to keep things going was to sell all the theaters seats, or at least, sponsorship of the theaters seats. For just $100, you could own a seat in a theater, and [...]
