Kind of a funny story about this movie..


...so back in 2004, I was super psyched for "TEAM AMERICA: WORLD POLICE"...

My local theatre actually put out a sneak preview of TEAM AMERICA the
Saturday before it was supposed to come out. I bought my tickets about 3 days
in advance.

The night of the preview, i showed up about an hour before show time. Wanted
to make sure i got some good seats.

I got into the theatre, i would say there were about 8 other people there
already...

And we sat there waiting...And waiting...Slowly more people filed into
the theatre...The show was suppposed to start at 7:20... That time came
and went, but people were still filing into the theatre so i just figured
they must be trying to pack in as many people as they can.

Theatre wound up absolutely full, and it finally darkened around 7:45...

Sat thru the trailers, and then the movie started.. Except it wasn't TEAM
AMERICA: WORLD POLICE, but rather "TAXI"...

I sat there for the credits, thinking "HAHA those South park Guys sure know
how to mess with you!" Then Jimmy Fallon came on screen....And i can remember
looking around at the 8 other people who had been there waiting before
i was, and they had the same look of dumbfounded "WTF?" on their faces...

Turns out the theatre had changed which actual cinema they were playing the
movie in AFTER we had shown up, but no one thought to check the theatre
to see if anyone was sitting in there..

We got a handful of free passes for that mess... I was pissed cause i had
to wait another week to see TEAM AMERICA!

Grr.

"Tide's up. Time to stay alive...."
