I'm like the fourth in line, but that's ok.

on saturday night we caught the screening of hard boiled as part of the new york asian film festival. as it's a classic piece of asian cinema the show was sold out and I anticipated a big crowd... but goddamn, we got there 50 minutes before showtime and there already was a pretty big line. by the time they started letting people in we were around the half way mark.

so sunday rolled around and I was extra psyched for I'm a cyborg but that's ok. this one sold out even faster than hard boiled, fueled by the star power of rain in the starring role. fearing what happened the previous night for hard boiled I got to the theater close to an hour before showtime.

turned out that even though the cyborg tickets sold out faster, the fans who snatched them up weren't as hardcore as chow yun fat fans. I was seriously like the fourth in line.

I felt like such a loser. a loser with Really Fucking Good Seats, but still.
