So I Married an Axe Murderer

Obviously, I didn't actually marry an axe-murderer, but we did catch this funny Mike Myers movie last night at the Regal Arbor cinema (a fun artsy theatre near our house). They've been doing a "retro rewind" series each Wednesday for a few weeks. Judging by the attendance last night and when we saw "Dr. No" about a month ago, it's not super-successful (but then again, how many people do they normally get at 7pm movies on Wednesday nights?)

My movie-watching-experience was enhanced primarily because there were other people there to laugh at all the jokes, including a few people (like me) who laughed *before* the jokes. I'd totally forgotten about Michael Richards cameo (he played Kramer, and his role in this movie is quite Kramer-esque).

They did trivia before the film and Matt won a free Chick-Fil-A breakfast sandwich for knowing that Charlie's dad (Mike Myers plays Charlie & his dad) didn't like KFC. Matt even answered the question with a quote from the film, done in character. Yes, this proves that my husband has an amazing memory for trivia! He gave it to me (thanks, dear) so maybe I'll head that way tomorrow morning. Mmmm... Chicken Biscuit...

In two weeks, we'll be back at the Arbor for "Better off Dead." If you're in the Austin area, hope to see you there!
