FoNS Brief Update: A Streetcar Named Shantyville

An entertaining aside: I just went to Fandango.com to reserve tickets to see Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed. I've been having second thoughts about this whole review idea, as just reading the abstract makes me retch. But that isn't the funny thing.

The funny thing is that the only place nearby that carries the movie is this dingy little theatre, I believe it was once a Century 22. It has maybe two screens, and when I saw the forgettable Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy movie there a door was open and the noise of a jackhammer leaked into the cinema. It is not just a tiny theatre. It is not just a grungy theatre. It is a poorly-run theatre. It is the Shantytown of cinemas.

The funniest thing was this little line under the its name: This theatre does not accept online ticketing.

At last I have an excuse to wait before committing good money to the noble cause of frying my brain in the name of science. I hope the autopsy proves interesting.
