The Mural Amphitheater used to be one of my favorite places back in the Pain in the Grass days. Now they have weekend movies which I didn't know about till just now and its the last weekend. The Seattle center emails were going in my junk mail, doh!

The line up this weekend is as follows:

Friday - 8 August

• Dusk - The Goonies
  Yes back when Cyndi Lauper and Cpt. Lou Albano were buddies she was in a movie that I don't even think I liked as a kid although I did like Cyndi Lauper's music. Hey, Girls just wanna have fun is a classic and now I know you will have that song stuck in your head all weekend! She doesn't really have anything to do with the film, but for me they both mark the same moment in time.

Saturday  - 9 August

• Dusk - Batman Begins
  The year is 2005, and everyone has realized how stupid it was that Michael Keaton played Batman so they decided to remake the series but now they are gory and the heroines are hotter. I must say, big improvement. Oh yeah the 1989 Batman movie also wasn't making money so they needed to rip off today's HS and College kids who could have just rented the original.
• 11:59 - Rocky Horror Picture Show
  All you need to know about this is Meatloaf rocks and Susan Sarandon is very hot in a sort of innocent girl goes wild kind of way. Oh yeah you also need to bring about 150 different props, dress as your favorite character, memorize the lyrics, the dance, and the lines and the crowd refrains to the lines and then while the movie is on you need to sing and speak over the top of the movie and if you're good act out the whole thing on stage in front of the movie and basically not watch the movie at all. That's the sign of a good movie, when no one watches it for 33 years and yet its still being played every Saturday night at Midnight.

I might have to stop in to check out the crowd for RHPS. I had my high school moments of attending that every weekend back at Shawnee HS in Medford Lakes, NJ... ah the memories... RockyCon2008 is in Atlantic City, NJ, of course!

BTW, whatever DID happen to Saturday night?
