Early 2000s. Long gone are the days when my buddies and I would head over to the movies at SM North Edsa for a brief respite from life. Back then I would hem and haw and whine about the ticket price, which would set us back Php65-80 per movie. I wasn't always this unnecessarily disagreeable, though. For me it was simply recoil reflex. Compared to the cost of admission to a movie theater back in Zamboanga City, which I think ran in the neighborhood of 50 bucks at the time, it was easy to see how considerably extravagant going to the movies here in Manila could be.
July 25, 2008. I start to feel the teensiet bit nauseated upon checking out the showing attractions at sureseats.com. Lej wanted something 8-ish, so that's that. Upon further internal hemming and hawing, I mentally throw my hands up in the air in defeat. I realize I feel a little oppressed. All I can say is, The Dark Knight had better be worth it then.
