T minus 2 hours till show time. I'm at a bar across the street from the theater enjoying the local hospitality.

Tonight I have made my way 2.5 hours east to catch a special midnight viewing of the original theatrical release of Grindhouse. I saw this movie 3 times on it's first release and can't wait to see it and all it's campy glory again.

I'm getting ready for my 3rd viewing. I thought I would mention the trailers that preview before the movie. Avatar: I hope it has a good story and it isn't just relying on CGI to get by. Halloween actually looks good. And Shutter Island looks fantastic!

I've just exited my 2rd viewing of IB. Having known the story I was able to focus more on the cinematography and camera work. Tarantino uses a camera the way a master seamstress uses a needle. It is a beautifully shot film.

Ok, I've managed to catch my breath. The second show is getting ready to start. A word of warning to those interested in seeing the film. There are more subtitles than English in the movie. So if you are opposed to reading while at the movies I suggest you pass on this. However you will miss out on the best picture of the year so far.

I just exited the first showing. I'm having trouble typing this. My hands won't stop shaking from rapture. I won't provide a full review until later. All I will say is that IB combines my 3 favorite things (in order) 1. Cinema 2. Fire 3. Beautiful Women.

15 minutes until the first showing. I am the only one in the theater. (I hate middle America). Speaking of hate, Michael Sragow of the Baltimore Sun has the only negitive review of IB on Metacritic. I just feel sorry for him.
