Angels y Demonicos. . .

I think that Angels and Demons opened up here in Costa Rica a day before it did back in the States. We saw it yesterday (May 14), and were the only ones in the theatre for the early show. We figure out of the who-knows-how-many-millions the movie will rake in this first weekend, we accounted for 3600 colones (about $6) to the gross from Ciudad Quesada, Costa Rica. It was a good movie, pretty much sticking to the book. I actually liked Angels and Demons, the book, better than the Da Vinci Code. Seemed like there was more action and more puzzles, etc., to figure out in this one. Definitely worth 3600 colones for the two of us. . . Not sure about $9 or $10 smackers apiece back home, though. . .

Three bucks sounds about right. Previews looked OK. Can't possibly be as lame as the first one. A bit strange you guys were the only ones in the theater. Costa Rica is a Catholic country ... and the Vatican didn't cooperate ... da-da-dada ... "Outer Limits" theme song. Maybe the locals knew something you didn't ... da-da-dada ...

i'll hop on the conspiracy bandwagon, no problems. . . everyone's out to get me! pretty cool to have the whole theatre to yourself, though. . .
