Almost got into an advanced screening of
Hot Fuzz, but I missed it by three people. The director/writer and the two main actors were going to be there (the same guys who did Shaun of the Dead, for those of you too lazy to click the link). I would've gotten in, except that the elevators in this godforsaken dorm make it a 5 minute trip down to street level, and that 5 minutes caused me to just barely miss a red line train, and so I had to wait 10 minutes for another one. If I had gotten the one I just barely missed, I almost definitely would've gotten in (I know this because I walked in just behind the people who did get in, so I know I would've been further up had I been there even a couple minutes earlier).
So thanks a lot University Center elevators. Now I'm gonna have to go spend my money and see the movie like a schmuck with all the other paying schmucks. And you know who won't be there? Edgar Wright, Simon Pegg, and Nick Frost, that's who.
Meh. Dinner now.
