Harold and Kumar, part deux

So, last night, I had a free pass to another preview screening of Harold and Kumar Go To White Castle. I took my friend Alvin to it, in which we took off from Redmond at 5:30pm to catch the 7pm showing. It was because of rush hour traffic that we had to leave this early because the seats were not guaranteed, even though we had passes (it was still first come, first serve).

We got to Pacific Place at about 6:15pm and the line up around the theatre was HUGE!! We dottled to the end of the line and waited patiently to get in. About 6:40pm, they let ppl into the theatre. About 6:45pm, the line stopped and the theatre was full. We didn't get it.

In fact, A LOT of people didn't get in. There was enough people who didn't get in to fill another theatre. And we were slapped right in the middle of this line.

Personally, I didn't care too much about getting in to see it again. But I felt really disappointed for Alvin because he drove and he skipped off from a major deadline of work just to see this movie with me. Oh well. BTW, of all the free screening movies I have given passes to and went to, this is THE FIRST I was ever denied into the theatre. They REALLY OVERBOOKED for this event.

We later went to University Village for some dinner. We actually got to eat at this little Thai restaurant that Alvin has been ALWAYS wanted to get into but never could because it was "always a line up outside." And now we know the reasons, because: a) the place is INCREDIBLY SMALL so it wont fit alot of ppl and; b) THERES ONLY ONE COOK cooking everything!! It took about 45 minutes to get our food and though it was cheap, it wasn't a whole lot. I really dont think I will come back here again but if I do, its take out all the way (when we left, expected take out time was 1 hour).
