Versión en Español
Ok, ok, check it out...
I'm looking at the website for the local movie theatre to see what movies came out this week. Well, Garfield is one of them. Now, I don't expect Garfield to be a gem of a movie, but hey, it's a Garfield movie, I might as well go watch it.
Well, as I'm looking through the listings, I notice that there are two theatres showing Garfield. I'm like, cool. And then I see it. Plain as day:
Garfield (Versión Español)
The Spanish version for BOTH FREAKING THEATRES!!!
And it's not like we have 3 movie theatres in my town. Cuz we do. But that's my favorite theatre, and these dumbasses can't even pick the right movie to play. This is the same theatre that the week Harry Potter 3 came out only played HP 3, Shrek 2, The Day After Tomorrow and Van Helsing. And it's a 12 theatre multiplex. (2 VH, 2 DAT, 3 HP3s and 3 Shreks, the latter two in English and Spanish versions; I guess there was something else that I didn't want to watch...).
Anyway. My point of this whole thing being:
I wrote a letter to show my disgust and I lied *giggle*. Check it out:
To Whom It May Concern:
I would like to know why you are not offering an English version of Garfield in ________. I was looking forward to watching the movie this weekend with my child, who will only watch kid’s movies in English. Now I will have to look elsewhere for his entertainment.
This past year, you have shown English and Spanish versions of Shrek 2, Harry Potter 3, and even Around the World in 80 Days. Why could you not have done the same with Garfield?
Sincerely,
(Me)
Ooooh, watch them tremble in fear!
Ok, the lie is that I have no kid. The only kid I go watch movies with is my cousin. He's 10 and he's a great movie buddy.
I haven't gotten an answer yet. Maybe they're investigating me to make sure that I have a kid.
