Pirates Interupted.

Last night Needles and I went to the Drive In. They were playing Shrek 3 and Pirates of the Caribbean 3. We arrive very early so we had prime spot choice. We sat and talked until we spotted a co worker and her family rolling in. They pulled up in a spot near us and we chatted until time for the movie to start, roughly 9pm. We watched Shrek 3 first which finished around 10:35pm. The movie was good but to say it was as good as the first two might be a bit of a stretch. We then set in to watch Pirates 3. The movie started of with the projection being foreshortened and the top of the image cutting though the top of peoples heads. After about 10 minutes they finally figured it out and opened up the image to encompass the whole screen. I sat and watched the movie and before long I glanced over to Needles to see her eyes closed in a short nap. The movie seemed confusing and hard to follow from the start. To make the movie even more confusing and somewhat frustrating, the movie projector stopped 30 minutes from the finish. We sat for 10 minutes waiting for the show to get fixed as a mass exodus left the Drive In. After a few attempted restarts , 20 minutes and an announced bulb replacement the movie folk announced it a NO GO. Needles took our tickets up to the booth to get a rain check. We left at about 1:20am and arrived home at 2:05am. I guess we got to see one movie but I was really wanting to see Pirates.... I guess we will have to wait until the DVD to watch and hopefully figure it out.

Sorry about piratus interuptus. I hate when that happens. Haven't seen P3 yet. Guess I'm the only one.
