    Yeah, I used the pass exactly once successfully. As soon as theaters gave me a hard time, I stopped falling for that promotion. I was rather pissed when I went with my free pass to The Golden Compass (from the Snakes on a Plane DVD…wtf?) and they told me they didn't take it. I checked the card back-to-front and there was no reason to refuse it–right chain of theaters, no restrictions about day/time to use it. The only reason they could come up with was that they were an AMC-Loews as opposed to an AMC. I'm sorry, you OWN Loews, AMC, ergo it is an AMC. (This is not the only problematic promotion advertising AMC has had, either. Grragh.)

    I wish more people WOULD make an issue out of it like you did, but unless you happen to have the time and patience to argue this thing past the poor kid making less than half the cost of your ticket, it's really not worth it. Bah and fie!

    While I don't share your love of the Underworld series (can't stand it, actually), I do applaud your tenacity in getting the theater to honor its deal. Well done. :)

    Ditto on both counts. Underworld was eye candy and not much more. (To be more crude about it: it was costume and design pr0n.) Evolution was…something I prefer not to think about. But hurrah for holding these people to their promises!

    • Robin says:

      I can get behind eye candy for the sake of being pretty. The thing that really turned me off of the first film was the ending. I mean, the combined product of a vampire and a werewolf is… a fuzzy Hulk? Why would something pale and something brown/gray create something teal? Up to that point, it was almost a good popcorn flick, but after that I couldn't even bear to see the second or third.

      And yet, I can watch old episodes of Highlander repeatedly. Go figure. ::shrug::

    Thanks for the praise, ladies. :)

    For those who are Lucian fans, I just finished a painting of him: http://wolfenmoondaughter.deviantart.com/art/Unde…

    Crap in a hat! I haven't even seen the second one yet! *woe* I'm really behind.

    I'm glad to hear this one is good, even though Kate Bekinsale isn't in it. I really liked Underworld. It's so rare to find a action/horror flick with a girl hero front and center.
