Kingdom of Hell-ven

Unbelievable!! I have turned into Victor Meldrew AGAIN. I cannot believe it. Last night we went to see Kingdom of heaven, and the theatre was peopled with MORONS, impolite, inconsiderate, rude people:
“Hey, the tickets are half-price, let’s go to the cinema and talk all the way through a film. And in the quiet reflective parts, lets talk more because we can hear each other better. Oh, and lets read all the writing on the screen out loud, and exclaim loudly when a plot point is explained or we see a character we recognise, which is often. If our phone is turned on, which it is of course, we will let it beep a lot, and then answer it noisily and then as a token of respect go down the stairs a bit and talk really, really loudly. We will crinkle cellophane type papers frequently and loudly and we will shuffle the popcorn too. We will be quiet if the usher remonstrates with us, but only till the usher leaves. We will hoot loudly in the romantic parts and generally make the theatre our playground.”
We are never, ever going to the cinema on a Tuesday night ever, ever again.
Despite the hardships, I really liked the film. It was a bit gory and I watched the battles from behind my hands, but apart from that it was great and Orlando was good to look at!! Liam Neeson hasn’t been out of a beard for what seems like years, he has a beard in Batman Begins too. Other actors included David ( Professor Lupin)Thewlis, Alexander ( Bashir)Siddig, Jon ( MacBeth) Finch, Phillip ( State of Play) Glenister, Kevin ( North Square) McKidd, Jeremy ( Brideshead Revisted) Irons and many many more!!!
Right, I have morning tea with the GardyGardeners, a visit to Janette re Jessie’s going away present, and then Jessie’s afternoon tea. Then I will need a nap!!!
