300 Rocked
Swavek and I went to see Frank Miller’s 300 today. We saw it at the IMAX in Portage, and I was blown away by the sound system. We got there early, so the previews and commercials were cycling through on the upper half of the screen with the audio on a regular sound system. We saw the Spiderman 3 trailer and the Harry Porter trailer — neat, but nothing that I hadn’t seen before.
Then the lights turned down, and the Spiderman 3 trailer started playing on the full screen. The screen was so huge that I couldn’t see anything around me except the movie. Then the IMAX speakers kicked in, and suddenly I couldn’t hear anything around me except the movie. It was awesome. Kerasotes should have built an IMAX in Schererville.
The movie was great, but I felt a little guilty afterwards because it was the first time that I had left Chrissy alone with Aiden (aside from business trips). Here I was, enjoying myself with my friend, eating Culvers (the best fast-food burger ever), and Chrissy was at home with the boy. I bought her a “love you” card and some Dove chocolate eggs on the way home.
