I went to the first show and would have gone to the encore, but I was unable to go....even in this economy, I think that the ticket price was reasonable and the theater was convenient to get to.

I went to the encore last night. It was as much fun as the first time. I even caught a couple of jokes that I missed the first time around. The only negative was that for the first five minutes there was no sound. Fortunately the theater fixed the problem and we only ended up missing the introductions.

That happened during the live show too. Think it was just a satellite glitch.

I went to to both the encore and the first showing.
The first had more people.
It was more fun.
The encore in our theater had sound and no picture until a few minutes into the short. They stopped and about 10 minutes later they started up the presentation from the hosts opening remarks.
Considering it was raining, and there were no glitches after the restart, it makes me wonder if the encore was just a recording and not a broadcast.
Also, since I saw it the first time, I used the musical interlude to go to the bathroom and get a refill.
I wish all movies still had intermissions.

I went with a friend to a theatre in down town Chicago and we had glitches, too. It was during the movie, before Inspector Clay gets killed. The theatre I was in was pretty filled, but not sold out. The theatre was also hosting the international Chicago Film Festival, with lots of ritzy looking people and paparazzi. At first I thought all this attention was for the encore, and that I was severly underdressed. There were also fans dressed as the the aliens from the movie and Tor Johnson!
I had a blast and I really hope they host more live events soon!

what kind of concessions did the bathroom have? Toilet water. Did you think I was going to pay $5.50 for self serve fountain soda? |
