I work at SilverCity in the West Edmonton mall, and May is gonna suck.
it's all starting with spiderman 3 on may fourth, midnight showings on thurs so we're not closing and getting out of the theater until well past 1am, and since I'm a supervisor I'll most likely have to stay until around 2 to help close the theater once the regular staff leave.
Then Shrek 3 will come out, and POTC 3 will just kick our asses. When POTC 2 hit last summer the theater was packed all day everyday from noon until 11am. and I'm not too excited about them.
When 300 hit there was lines from the concession that actually went around to the otherside and migled with the other sides lines before forming a single line out the damn door... it was crazy! and not at all fun.
The only real good thing I can see is that THIS year I'm in charge of the people getting you your popcorn and food and stuff, I won't be doing it myself :D.
But the movies I really want to see will be Spiderman 3, Shrek 3 (the only shrek movie I've actually seen a preview for and thought it might be good) as well as Transformers. I'll see POTC3 but only because I've seen the others, I've got to see the last one.
Harry potter will also be huge, we're getting it in IMAX as well as in 35mm I think, so we're gooing to have no less then three theaters going at a time, same with spiderman, 1 IMAX print and like 3 35mm prints.
Summers gonna suck.
