One thing you neglected to say there Cuzzin Vinny.....Even though Mick LaSalle gave it a good review.....It is only Playing in San Jose or Santa Rosa. Neither of those exactly in my backyard.

I might be better off going to Hollywood for the 10 dollar fajita Buffet and look for Lester

Waited a few weeks to see if it was going to show locally and it looks like it is not.....so I made the drive down to San Jose. Enjoyable flick and right up my alley. Dink is not the only who still has the SportsTicker LOL. The bad part of the movie was that the TV graphics were all phony.....tracks or Games. Maybe the DelMar one was the only one that looked ligit.......And the big New Jersey / Los Angeles BasketBall game where they are all in.....when the guy is shooting the two free throws with zero seconds left....the clock in back of him on the opposing backboard shows six mins and forty seconds left...??????
The audience was 10 people...and did they ever look like the degenerate crowd. One guy looked like C-Lo's guy from the finals and his wife looked like Yoko-Ono in her sixties. After the flick one guy who watched the movie went around and picked up all the garbage....recycle or looking for live tickets? Love those gamblers!

Still can't find it within a 77 mile radius from me.

But never mind the degenerates - I see enough of them everyday here at GGF. How was the popcorn? Did they also have KettleCorn? Free refills?

Lol...how?

I was watching bootleg football (Rams) a few weeks ago and a buncha porn love popped up....my wife was looking at me like WTF?

How can I watch Lay the Favorite without driving down to freaking San Jose?

Thanks,

I guess the musical question "Do you know the way to San Jose?" answers it's self in a Vince post. 8-)

Actually for those who want to see it now, just go to your OnDemand channel.

Found this while looking for a Pay-per-View movie tonight.

Unbeknownst to me it was released OnDemand the SAME DAY that it was released in theaters. Not a good sign but for only $7.99 you can watch it in HD. For $6.99 on regular screen.

It's also a TWO day rental so go for it. I'll watch in the next day or so.

I saw it the weekend it opened in Anaheim Hills. The theater only charged $5.00 for the 11am show. It was in the smallest of rooms in the theater, only 6 rows. There was me and one other person in the showing. Some guy about 70 years old and looked to be a stooper from the old days of Santa Anita.

Yes.
I got off the 91 at Imperial, going east, and made a left over the highway and a left into the parking lot. I think it is Cinema City Theatres.
