so on christmas night, my cousin, dena and her boyfriend, scottie, and i went to see marley and me. if anyone has heard of the book, you know that the movie cannot possibly end on a happy note. i mean, don't be shocked or mad if i ruin something for you, you should already know this, but the dog does die at the end of the movie - just like in the book. well, this couple behind us... clearly missed the memo. the man got so mad when the movie clearly changed directions from funny to sad, he started using every word in the book (profanity, cussing, you name it) he was pissed. he kept saying, "this was supposed to be a d@&# comedy!" his girlfriend was crying, and when he saw that, that about sent him through the roof. it was mildly uncomfortable for me, as i was the closest person in the theater to this idiot, but i kept thinking, hopefully he'll get over it. well he didn't get over it, in fact, not so much, that he told his girlfriend to get up and leave with him... he wasn't having it....
i personally believe that he was afraid of getting choked up, so that was his coping mechanism, but to each their own - he peaced out.
so, this is a advance warning, please do not go and see it without knowing the outcome. prepare to cry, as i don't know of one person in that theater that didn't at least shed a tear hear and there. it is such a good movie though.
i cannot wait to see confessions of a shopaholic, he's just not that into you, and some others but those are the two that popped in my head right now.
