Why do people line up for movies? I can understand showing up early to make sure you have plenty of time to get snacks, find a good seat, etc and then seeing that there are more people there than you anticipated and end up waiting in a line. But coming before the release of a movie to wait in line? I'd rather just wait 3 weeks, when the people who liked the movie are burnt out on it and the people who didn't are long gone and see it by myself in an empty theater in any seat I choose. I mean... It's the same reel of film 3 weeks later as it was in the first showing. Might as well watch in comfort and quiet.
