Drive-In
Date: 2005-06-03 (transfered from old blog)
We took Daniel to see his first not-at-home movie. As he is only 4 and has been wanting to see “Robots”, we figured it would be better to go to a drive-in where he could hide in the back seat if things on the screen got too intense for him. This was actually the first time in my life I’ve been to a drive-in and the experience was enlighting. It seems that this establishment (located near Oakville) attracts… shall we say… rednecks. I mean, a really scummy looking crowd. I don’t know if this is true of drive-ins in general or not. Anyway, the deal was pretty good, Robots, Starwars 3, and some other movie we didn’t stay to see, all for a price less than it would cost in a normal theater. My only complaint is that the consession area sells really bad, overpriced food. But hey, what was I expecting?

Saint Ralph
Date: 2005-04-28 (transfered from old blog)
Michelle and I went to see a movie this evening called “Saint Ralph“. The main kid star, Adam Butcher, and the director of the movie were both there in the theater giving a little talk at the beginning and taking questions at the end. Adam goes to GCI highschool and Michelle was his teacher in grade 9 for some classes. Anyway, kind of surreal to go see a movie with the main actor taking questions afterward… he was extremely nervous. I guess he was around 16 years old or something. Good for him anyway, hopefully he gets to work in more movies.
