Viewing Notes

Fun viewing with a big crowd.


Kinda weird crowd, too. People not knowing how reserved seating works. A guy at the other end of my row walking all the way down to my end to exit instead of the aisle next to him. Same phone ringing multiple times a few rows back (why not turn it off after the first call?). It’s like a large group of people going to the theater for the first time in years.
