    So i decided to go see The Hngover last night in the local picture house. I went in and bought my ticket half hour before show and went out to the car to get a little toasty before i went in. When i was well lit i ventured in down the hall towards screen five. the door was open and in my state i waddles in and took a free seat near the back. As i settles in i got a weird feeling. I leant out on the aisle and asked the guy across was this the beginning or the end of the movie.

    To my horror i found out i had walked in on the last five mins of the movie. Thank funk it was dark in there as i stumbled back out laughing my ass of and red from embarrasment.

    turns out the movie was crap too.......i was much funnier last night

    How did you manage that?? Honestly? Did you buy the ticket during the day and came back that night or something?:confused:

    You also missed out on the best movie in the cinema so far this year btw

    He said he bought the ticket half an hour before the film started.

    He said he bought the ticket half an hour before the film started.

    ya i know what he said but that makes no sense... how could anyone buy a ticket 30 mins before the show and then come back nearly 2 hours later to watch it!:confused:


  • Posts: 0 CMod ✭✭✭✭ Fox Brave Peddle


    unless "toasty" is some sort of new slang I haven't heard for drunk/stoned/something, my only comment is...lolwtf? :confused:

    lets just say he's not playing with the full deck.

    I'm so glad you're all the way in Sligo, being awesome getting that "toasty" in your car in the cinema car-park before most likely driving home...

    You're a hero to us all.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,732 ✭✭✭Reganio 2


    You missed the best film ever, I don't want to spoil it for you but its amazing that he dies in the end you really don't expect it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,817 ✭✭✭✭Dord


    He's saying that he went to his car & got stoned. It seems that he then lost track of time and was late for the movie. Not really that funny of a situation tbh.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,488 ✭✭✭kingtut


    First you go into a movie five mins before the end....then you make it worse for yourself by telling us all about it. Tool! :pac:

    reminds me of a time something like this happened to me, but it was a greater level of embarrassment

    this was when the 3rd Matrix film was in the cinema (horrible) (not sure, this was a few years back so the films might not be right)



    cant remember the cinema, anyways..film was showing in screen 3, myself and my girlfriend made our way to the Q. went in a few minutes later and took our seats.

    problem was, our seats were filled, we were confused and just sat down thinking it was a open seat thing.

    film kicks in..subtitles start..whhhaaatt?

    i know Keanu Reeves can put you to sleep with his f-in' brilliant acting and thought they were 'there to help you keep up with him'

    Then some french chick is in some field and i just start laughing and maybe waiting for her to take the blue pill.

    a usher (not the singer) is beside us with a clipboard, a pen and a painful look on his face as people are sitting on the steps.

    i get his attention and ask him, 'is this not Matrix 3?'

    he looks at the clipboard, then at me, scratches his head and says no.

    Matrix 3 was on screen 3, which would be beside screen 4 of course.
    Thing was, there was a french film in screen 4 called '3' (cant remember exactly, but you get the idea). We didn't read the sign well enough obviously and got confused.

    So we both stood up, heads down..giggling away. Then as we walk across the front the screen about 60 people also stand up, honestly , about 50% of the place stood up.

    The entire room applauds, everyone laughs.

    Keanu didnt.

    Sh1t, hope it didnt ruin it for you...after all the Hangover has such an intricate, well developed plot with such amazing twists it could really ruin it if you seen the end:P


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 888 ✭✭✭shamblertine


    You missed nothing op, the film was useless. How the hell did it get such great reviews??!!? I sniggered about twice during the entire movie and that was it. Although amazingly most of the cinema fcuking lapped it up, howling with laughter at ever little slapstick moment and what have you. Sometimes I think I'm too good for this country.

    Yep, its not a great movie is it?
    Went to see it last night and the only funny moment was when Mike Tyson started singing "In the air tonight".


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 170 ✭✭TobyZiegler


    Did he not just walk into the last 5 mins of the previous showing??

    Thought the Hangover was great myself!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,492 ✭✭✭upmeath


    People claiming The Hangover was the best comedy released this year, Observe & Report was leagues ahead, and Role Models was screened here this year despite being released in North America last year. Both far superior IMO.

    OP: You didn't miss much, should have spent that tenner on some more grass or skins! :D

    Ok ok we get it, you have a car with a heater, and you can afford to go to the picture house

    No need to go mocking us poor folk with your riches :mad:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,808 ✭✭✭✭chin_grin


    Here's what you missed OP.

    Baby gets hit in the face with a car door.

    Tiger in bathroom that belongs to (shock horror) Mike Tyson (who is just cringeworthy in this).

    A weird-bearded guy that just says a lot of random crap that isn't funny either.

    That Asian guy from Role Models as an over the top homo.

    And they get married in the end.

    Sh1t movie, you were lucky.

    (And those whining why I didn't use spoilers? Coz IT'S.NOT.FUNNY.)

    When I went to the cinema for "Titanic" years ago, I paid my friend 20 pounds to LOL during the sad bits.

    When there was a poignant scene and the place was quiet, my mate would start laughing his head off. The whole place turned to look at us about 5 times. Thank God there was 6 of us there.

    Jaysus, it was the funniest few hours of my life.

    I dare everyone on boards to give it a go.

    :D:D

    I walked in on the end of that M. Night Shymalan film...what's it called? The Vanishing or something?

    Yes, I have been caught in this situation many times before when going to the cinema and being dissappointed by the lack of available toast. There's nothing better than having 4 slices by your side while watching a good flick - the only downside is the amount of time it takes to make the bloody stuff in the car with the cigarrette lighter!!!

    Then you have to smuggle the stuff into the cinema under your armpits! :mad:

    *Wipes sweat from brow as he turns over the 2nd slice to resume toast lines*

    I'm still trying to figure out, how what he scribbled in crayon on an old newspaper managed to get on Boards. :confused:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,049 ✭✭✭Driver 8


    I remember when I went to see Angels and Demons (the horror!), four people arrived in about five minutes from the end with popcorn and drinks, was rather funny to see their faces as the lights came up :D

    In fairness with all the hype The Hangover was getting it was billed to be the best comedy of all time. It was funny, but not hilarious. I was mildly entertained and would give it 6.6/10. I can't remember the parts I liked, probably Eddie that guy in the Little Chapel - he was good. Doug was crap, Stu was good, Phil was ok, Alan was ok aswell.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,738 ✭✭✭Naos


    Was an okay film, not in Wedding Crasher's league though.

    Best bit:
