Hanna

We went to the movies today, our day off, and it was quite the adventure.  First, figure out whether the movies would be dubbed (people's mouths move and you expect English, but you hear Korean) or subtitled (words across the bottom of the screen). 

There was one that would be in English, but it took a while.  We asked one poor lady who spoke no English.  Then we got a number and waited for our turn, and figured out that the only movie we could watch was "Hanna," that it would begin in an hour, and that we'd have to go upstairs for the theatre.  $10 for a ticket.  I even managed to ask whether guys would like it.

We had assigned seats.  And we sat in the wrong ones.

The seats were "vibration seats," so you could feel explosions and helicopters and the bass in fast music through the seats.  Cheap thrill. Yeah, baby!

Everything on the Web is in Korean, so I can't figure out how to embed the video I want to show you; you'll have to click away from my blog to watch it.  It's the trailer for "Hanna."
