So, me and Ashley were hellbent on seeing the Wolverine movie (I know that is not the title of the movie, but that's what I am fucking calling it) on opening night... Well, Ashley is a fucking genius and decided to get us tickets @ the Epicentre in Charlotte, instead of a regular theater.
First, let me tell you that downtown Charlotte makes downtown Raleigh look like the slums. It's clean and everything looks NEW. Back to my story.
We get downtown and find the Epicentre, which we find out is this awesome open air mall in the middle of downtown Charlotte that has restraunts and stores that were open when we got out of the movie... at midnight. Also, it has its own parking deck with free parking if you save your movie stub, otherwise it's $10. So it other words, save your fucking stub.
Anyfart, we walk through the awesomeness, and get to the theater, which has a velvet rope outside and looks like a club. The guy at the door asks us for our IDs and I was confused until I realized that you have to be 21 to get into the theater after a certain time. Which means no dumbass kids in the theater ruining my moviegoing experience!!! That alone was worth the extra $2 the ticket costs!
Then we get inside, and this shit IS a fucking club! The music was BLASTING and there was a bar, dance floor, and lounge. YES PLEASE. ANDDDDD it is joined with Mez restuaraunt and you can order REAL food to eat during the movie. You also can order a drink from the bar to enjoy with your movie as well!
As we walked into the theater part, we noticed that there aren't movie posters of upcoming movies... but flatscreens with the movie trailers playing on them! So we keep walking and get into the theater..... the seats are HUGE, they rock, and there was at least a foot and a half between me and the people sitting beside us. Not to mention our seat was like a sofa and had huge arm rests, to hold the plates and drinks.
This place has ruined all other theaters for me. It is totally worth the extra 2 bucks, and I will be going to see the new Transformers movie on opening night there too. I fucking love Charlotte.
Also: The movie was SICK!!! But I'll blog about that later....
