Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Well, if Freud doesn't take his daily cocaine, he turns from Super Ego into Castration Anxiety... or maybe The Id. Wait, it'd make more sense that doing coke would turn him into The Id, right?

Heh. I was trying to think of a way to work that in, but that's a good one.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Wow. The new Harry Potter is showing at 9 different theaters at the Metreon, starting Thursday (after Midnight) at: 12:02, 12:03, 12:04, 12:05, 12:07, 12:08, 12:09, 12:10, and 12:11.

Madhouse!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I predict bragging rights from getting into the 12:02 showing. You will be up to 9 minutes ahead of your fellow theatre-goers!

Plus you'll hear cursing.

"Twelve eleven? Shit! Shit! Shit!"

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I haven't gone to an Event showing since Serenity.

Memorably, I went to the first showings of Batman (Burton) and Indian Jones and His Dad James Bond.

Also, I waited in line for more than two hours to go see an after midnight showing of The Shining with Karen (Emmett's godmother) and my friend Phil, both of whom nearly clawed my arms off in terror during the movie.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I have tickets to a 12:02 showing!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I can't remember, but Serenity might have been my last event showing. But that was the premier, not a midnight showing.

And Batman was definitely my first. God, that was a big night. Partying beforehand at a comics-themed party (I wish I knew what happened to that denim jacket with Storm painted on it) and I ended up taking the life-sized cutout of Wolverine with me to the Bats movie and everyone was freaking out because it was publisher cross-contamination. Fun times, fun times.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Batman was a big deal. I remember when the first trailer showed in a theater and when Michael Keaton said, "I'm Batman" the crowd went apeshit.

I waited in a line that probably curved about a quarter of a mile away from the ticket booth, and got something like twelve tickets.
