And those who go to see “Selma” are largely paid to go:
“WASHINGTON — I WENT Friday morning to see “Selma” and found myself watching it in a theater full of black teenagers.
Thanks to donations, D.C. public school kids got free tickets to the first Hollywood movie about the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. on his birthday weekend — an effort that was duplicated for students around the country.”
Maureen Dowd
How long until “Selma” is deemed Mandatory by school districts?
I wish I could get paid to go to the movies. The last movie I saw downtown was “300: Rise Of An Empire.” One of my professors at school at that time insisted that we go see the movie and show him the movie ticket for extra credit, just so that we could understand his lecture about the “wooden wall at Salamis” that united the Greek Empire.
Cost me sixteen bucks, because I dragged my husband along. And another ten bucks for sweet munchies.
If you’re a born warrior, then you will get it. If you just wanna pass the class and make some money in the Real World, then it’s just useless Strategy & Tactics.
Entertaining flick though, with the silliest sex scene I’ve ever seen in a movie. The Greek general is trying his best to rape the Persian Warrior queen, and she’s trying her best to kill him. While her armed guards are standing outside her chambers listening to the screams and crashings and wondering WTF. That was the funniest scene in the movie.
