Slightly OT, but I knew if anyone could appreciate my Dreamworks-related frustration...

...it would be you guys!

So, a few weeks ago I made this post on my LJ because I was bummed about how I never seem to have time to go see RotG

OMG, for a sec I thought you were at the same cinema I was in, because we had commercials, then the screen went black. Someone went out to tell an employee what happened and he came and after a while, the trailers started playing, but without sound XD

Apparently, people are trying to sabotage us so that we won't see Jack and the others in their full glory XD

[sharelle]

Oh my gosh, seriously! I'm not sure which would have been wilder - if we had actually been in the same theater, or the fact that similar things happened to the same movie in two completely different places!

I hope that, unlike me, you at least got to see it!

[toshi_hakari]

I thankfully did get to see it :) In German, but the voices were really, really good :D

[sharelle]

That's good! Hopefully I'll be able to say the same before too much time goes by! :)

[sharelle]

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I'll get another opportunity. The closer it gets to the holiday, the more full my weekends become. But I hope so. I'll be very disappointed if I don't get back there at all.

[sharelle]

Your fic is one of the reasons I really WANT to see it! Fic's getting written without me and I want to be able to read it!

[missmartian23]

I'm sorry you had such a rough time.

Apparently the stars themselves have to align in order for you to see it :P.

[sharelle]

It certainly feels that way! It would probably be funny if it wasn't so cosmically disappointing!

[dal_niente]

Wow. That is a whole lot of the universe being stupid right there. I am really sorry it hasn't been working out!

[sharelle]

I know, right! I would have tried again tonight and gone for a weekend hat-trick. But I have a concert to perform in, so that's out.

Apparently, this was not my weekend to go.

[vast_difference]

Aww, sorry that it hasn't worked out for you to see it yet. What type of concert are you in?? You probably told me if you play/sing at some point, but since my concert this week has pretty much drained all of my brainpower, I can't remember right now for the life of me!

P.S.- I am going to read your story for the Advent Challenge at some point... just haven't gotten a chance yet!

[sharelle]

Thanks, hon! Here's hoping it will work out eventually!

Haha! I'm actually not sure I ever mentioned that I sing. (Though as a music teacher, I'm sure you would've appreciated that!) I'll be performing in a choral Christmas concert this evening. I'm a Soprano I. Go high notes! ♫

PS - And yay! I know it's a busy time (especially for you with all your musical commitments at school). But when you get around to it, I'd definitely love to know your thoughts ! :)

Oh, that sucks! RotG is definitely worth seeing though, so even though it may seem like you're jinxed, definitely try again! Sorry your experience has been so bad though... XD

[sharelle]

Thanks. Yeah, I do feel pretty jinxed. Hopefully it'll all be worth it when (if) I finally get there!

[megam1nd]

You'll get there! You've just gotta think positive! XD
