Catching tickets

We did manage to get in to see "Catching Fire" on Friday night, by mugging four pre-teens and stealing their tickets.
No! Just kidding! In truth, Fandango unclenched somewhat on the morning of the show. The reason that particular showing was important was that we were celebrating an 18th birthday there. First time I ever ate cake at the movies. Let's not ask how they smuggled it in.
"Catching Fire" was really good; better executed than the first movie, I thought. If you haven't seen it and you're a fan, you won't be disappointed. Unless you're the type of fan who will be distraught that such-and-such a scene wasn't put into the film. There, I can't help you. I barely remembered the book so I approached the film with all the wonder of a child. A slightly sardonic child with credit cards.
We also saw "Gravity" over the weekend. It's amazing and you should make any effort humanly possible to see it in 3-D. That is all.
