Movies

Jason and I have gone to the movies on our last two babysitter nights. I don't know why we haven't done this before since it is fun. We have both been to the movies here in Prague but just not with each other but for some reason it just didn't compute to go to the movies on our babysitter nights. Anyway, we went and saw 1408 (or "Pokoj 1408" as it is called here. Which is just "Room 1408". I thought it was interesting that they had to change the title to say that while in English is is understood) and Stardust. Both films were in English with Czech subtitles. It is fun to read the subtitles at times in the movie to see how much I know and how many new words I can pick up. The theaters here are nice and are all stadium seating. The difference between going to the movies here and going to the movies in the U.S. is that here when you buy your tickets you actually buy particular seats. It is nice to know that when you buy a ticket you don't have to worry about weather the only two seats left are at opposite ends of the front row. We have actually gone online and reserved our seats before we go to the movie. I know it seems odd that we can actually do something online in Prague but this really does work. The website shows the lay out of the theater and you pick the seats you want and then just pick up and pay for them 30 minutes before the movie. You can pay for them in advance and then just show up at anytime before the movie but I don't trust the online capability so much that I give them my money!
