Viewing Notes

Yay big screen bucket list. Was DCP but worse was that MBT put this in the screening room instead of the main house since The Room was the other midnight movie. So it was soldout and disappointing to view on the smaller screen. This deserves to be projected on the big screen. I wasn’t the only there angry about that decision. Of course our crowd was way into this and cheered and clapped throughout. Fun to see but I’m hoping for a bigger viewing experience some day.
