No 'Sex And The City' For These Two, Even Though They Spent $16K For It - Page 2
After the orchestra section's 2,900 seats filled up, some 500 ticked-off promotional ticket holders were walked over to the DGA Theater on West 57th Street. The rest were issued vouchers to see the picture for free at cinemas tomorrow.
Whatever. Don't really care.
Gas is $4 and up a gallon. More people are dealing with bankruptcies and foreclosures than ever. Jobs are being cut, and those who keep their jobs are having to deal with having their pay slashed. Milk is almost $4 a gallon and you can't afford to even look at meat and fresh fruits and vegetables. The economy is going in the toilet. There's a war in Iraq, earthquake devastation in China, and people starving in third world countries. Overall, prices are going up while paychecks are going down. And these people have $16K to blow on a trip to see a movie that glorifies (along with promiscuity) overspending, brand worship, and blind materialism? Where do I sign up for their job? The only thing worse would be if they financed all this with their credit cards and will have to pay on this fiasco for the next umpteen years.
Go ahead. Bring on the "you're jealous" comments. I encourage it. Because all that will show is that I have a firm grip on reality while others excuse the ridiculousness of wasting good, hard-earned money on a movie.
Um...HELLO? I'm not against going to the movies, and I'm not against having a good time, and I'm not against vacations, but come on. It's a movie. Yeah, okay...they should have the right to spend their money however they see fit, even if it is stupid, but if they're going to talk about it to the New York Daily News then I have the right to comment on the foolishness of it. Hey, girls...call me when you get some real problems, okay?
