So I’m in the theater tonight waiting for “Step Brothers to unspool (will post my review on Friday).
My theater starts showing “Before They Were Stars” and famous quotations from old movies on the big screen. Great. Keeps my mind occupied while I wait for the movie to begin.
But five minutes after settling in my seat, the screen is already repeating the same “Stars” and “Quotations” I saw mere minutes ago.
Huh? They can’t scrape up a good 10-15 minutes of original material? How hard is it for someone to research a few more quotations and pre-famous folks?
Seems a lost opportunity to build some goodwill with the theatrical experience.

Tmanator, just be glad they aren’t “trivia questions” about favored products: “This tasty beverage has its headquarters in Atlanta, Ga., and sports the most recognizeabe logo on the planet … give up? Why it’s ice-cold Coca-Cola, why not have one now?”
Oh, I’m serious. It’s a matter of time until some dork figures this one out …
That’s a cynical peek at the future a la “Blade Runner,” Chase … next thing you’ll tell me advertisers will sneak their products into TV shows to increase advertising opps.
