what the...

On Thurs nite, i took a train to meet candice and guat at IP. Was the last few to enter the train, and stood facing the door. The train was packed, and just enough space for 2 adults to stand infront of me. The next thing i knew, a baby pram ram into my legs. A mum was trying to push the pram into the train. The doors started beeping. Everyone scrambled behind me to make space for the kid in the pram and her parents. WHAT THE!!! How can the parents put the kid in such a dangerous position! What if the passengers behind me didnt shift in time and the door closes with the pram in between? Cant they wait for the next train?

Yesterday nite, decided to watch Spiderman3 with hub. GV theatres are out as the website is laggin and most of the shows are sold out. Decided to give Bugis Shaw a try. Bad choice apparently. I have the habit of choosing seats at the back. Just incase the screen is really big, would rather watch from afar than to have a aching neck and headache. At Bugis1, the back of the chairs are high, aand the elevation of the seats are bad. The row of subtitles are blocked by the chairs infront of me. Had to find the gap between the chairs to get a better view.
And if that aint bad enough. There were 6 idiots sitting behind us who treated the theatre like their own living room. They were chatting thru out the movie, not whispering, but talking in normal volume or maybe even louder. Seems like the 1st guy was talking to the 6th guy. Imagine all the commotion behind us. After an hour, hub had enough and told the guys to quieten down. That worked for 10 mins... Argh. Hello! there are people in the theatre who intend to watch and hear the movie. If you want to chat, buy/rent the dvd and watch it at your own place.
Shall stick to my favourite cinema in the future, where the viewers are more matured. Never face this problem there before. Wide and comfy seats too that wont block my view.
Oh. and on the movie, Nothing fantastic. Found it draggy, too much romance. Reviews commented that its the best so far out of the 3. that i will disagree.
