A Series of Unfortunate Events


Angel and I were invited to watch a movie with my sister in-law and her friend. We arrived at the theater and I still had my GPS device on me. I marked a way point and we had fun looking at how far we were from the car as we walked closer to the theater.

My sister in-laws friend paid for everyone’s tickets. I was humbled as I thought I was going to pay for Angel and myself. We got in line to get a bottle of water.

The cashier said they were out of the large water bottles at $3.75 and could only sell us the small ones at $3.25. I pointed to some water bottles in the back and asked him if we could buy them. Nope. I asked if he could just give us two small ones and charge the price of a large one. Nope. This guy wouldn’t budge.

We settled for just a small water. Angel asked him for a cup and he gave her a 7 ounce courtesy cup. She asked if she could have something bigger. Nope. Apparently, they charge by the cup, not by the drink. Angel tried to sneak a cup from an empty cash register and they raised there voice for her to put it back.

From there on, we moved on to the theater. The stadium seating was not populated much and we found some nice seats just above the entrance. We began watching the movie and I was getting into it. After an hour, Angel asked if I wanted to leave. Everyone was in favor of ditching the movie, so I went along with it.

Along the way home, the girls were just going at how unreal the movie was and the crazy things that the narrator would do. I explained that it was a children’s movie and that they were trying to give the story this ambiance on purpose.

I’ll just go ahead and see the video when it comes out. I’m not upset or anything. I’m just going along with the flow.

    I’ve been reading the series, and I’ve enjoyed them so far, but I have heard many say that the stories are too depressing for children to read–as you’ve said. I don’t want to watch the movie until I’ve read a few more of the books (there’s 11, I think). I don’t want to spoil it for myself.

    I’m sorry you didn’t enjoy the movie. I hope I won’t be disappointed as well…
