Watching Wolverine


Photobucket

Last week, Jimbo and family decided to watch X-men Origins: Wolverine. Getting the tickets was not a problem as they were at the cinema quite early.

The cinema was packed! Jimbo noticed that most of the people there were teenagers.

And so it was not surprising to find the row of seats in front and the back of Jimbo et al occupied by teenagers.

Teenagers with loud hand phone ring tones and do not understand how to turn them to silent mode.
Teenagers who check their hand phones at 5 seconds interval in case some one called or sms them. The resultant light from the phone interface could help land a plane in pitch darkness!
Teenagers with loud loud voices.
Teenagers that eat pop corn like they are chewing on rock buns.
Teenagers who kick the back rest of your seat incessantly.
Teenagers who think nothing of mouthing the script of the movie (obviously this one blardy idiot has seen the bootlegged version of it and couldn’t stop mouthing aloud what the actors were about to say next).
And teenagers with zero knowledge of history…

For instance, the trailer for ‘Night in the Museum 2′ was being shown and there was this scene where Abraham Lincoln’s statue came alive and spoke.

The blardy teenager-who-saw-bootlegged-version-of-Wolverine got very excited.

“Wah, Abraham Lincoln!”, said the idiot excitedly.
“He is the first American President, you know”, he told the girl next to him.
“No la! (munching furiously on pop corn) He is like the 4th or 5th president la”, said the girl.
“Sure or not?” asked the idiot.
“Of course sure la! I study it already la. George Washington was the first US president!”, said the girl.
“Wah, you so clever ho?! Everything also you know one”, said the idiot admiringly.
“Of course la. I know one. He he he…”, giggled the girl.

FYI, Abraham Lincoln was the 16th USA President.

If only Jimbo has retractable adamantium claws…..

There wouldn’t be any idiotic teenagers left…
