Oopsie....
A Times Square movie theater laid an egg at a showing of "Chicken Little" last night.
Adults and kids expecting to watch Disney's G-rated animated flick at the AMC Empire 25 theater on 42nd St. were instead presented with a foreign film that opened with a young man committing suicide.
"It's pandemonium," Joshua Gallo, 30, told the Daily News as he rushed out of the theater with his 5-year-old son and 1-year-old daughter. "The kids are crying. The mothers are screaming for the managers to stop the film."
Terrified children didn't know what to do as they watched a young boy hang himself from a tree at the 8:45 p.m. screening.
After five minutes, "Andrea," a Spanish drama opening today, was turned off and "Chicken Little" was played.
Patrons got a coupon for a free movie.
I think they should have given the kids coupons for free therapy.

Is it an outlet that is controlled by a wall switch? Hey, that's fooled me before.
tommy,
That situation was not at all funny for the kids or the adults, but damn, why did I burst out in laughter for a solid 5 minutes at your story?
Man. I think a fucking free coupon would not have been enough. BTW, wouldn't the parents have thought something was fucked up when they didn't get previews for a Disney flick before the movie?
No wonder Chicken Little's box office receipts aren't great.
I've been sitting around in my pjs for 3 hours. Someone tell me to go get showered and dressed.

Yeah, that's happened to me before, too.
Happy happy to Jessica.
The next-door neighbors did home improvements for MONTHS because they were selling the house. The house sold. Ah, sweet relief.
WRONG. Because the new buyer apparently dislikes all the home renovation and is redoing it. Loudly. Under my bedroom window. There appears to be major sanding, hammering, and deconstruction going on, and I don't mean Foucalt.
Wah.
