  Such is the value of working at a startup that is mere blocks away.

  I don’t care how hot she is, I wouldn’t waste my time seeing such a crap film.

  steve – I’m hearing the reviews are pretty good, which surprises me given the level of suspension of disbelief that’s needed to buy into it.

  The film looks crappy and it’s too far away. 10 hours round trip to see a film like that with gas at $4.50 a gallon is not viable. I think you guys have it worse in San Fran too. Gas was $4.45 here when I tanked up today plus the $.45 fee for using a paypass card.

  It got a 92% on the always-trusty rottentomatoes.com, which is why I’m standing in line right now.

  got to see it this past weekend (i guess edina mn gets the better screening dates) – it was good if you like this kind of movie.

  Is it good?
  Friends say that it is too simplistic for >= 13 y. o. and too violent for < 13 y. o.
  I am curious who is going like it

  Crossing the bridge costs me $4.00, gas $4.00, and parking $20.00 ($10.00 an hour), coming to a total price of $28.00 … for a $10.50 movie ticket I can buy next week … I’ll pass on this. It’s not like the dot-com boom when I can spend lavishly without looking at my expense.

  Thanks TC, the movie was fun. I liked how they layered humor on top of the action in a not too cheesy way. Angelina is like a good wine, she’s getting better with every year….

  @Chris @Cost

  What are you talking about – gas price? We flew in from Canada for the movie

  From that clip I just can not understand how she picked him up in the car like that without breaking his legs? Oh well, maybe it is a cable movie I will enjoy in future years.

  @Michael

  Why not? It was a great trip and we met lot’s of great people. Videos will be on our blog soon – we didn’t find any more evidence for our bullet bending thesis though.

  I’ll be back (Imagine that with a German accent
