Well, someone at the Regal/UA Vogue (single screen) in SF is crack-pipe-in' in regard to showtimes this weekend for Eternal Sunshine. Running at about 1:55 with trailers, they scheduled their showtimes at 11:45, 2, 4:15, 7:00, 9:40.
Um, so the day staff has only about 20 minutes between shows (not even barely long enough to show The 20wenty) to clear the patrons, clean, prep, sell tix, etc., and then the evening staff have almost an hour before the 7, and then 45 minutes between the 7 and 9:40.
Why would you even need such bizarre showtimes for a single screen anyway? Why not just 11:30, 2, 4:30, 7, 9:30? Obviously someone toked up Monday morning, and then came out of this smoke filled room with these showtimes. I feel sorry for the staff...
