gshDear theater,
I am aware I am more finincky about time than the average person. I'm aware that when you
advertise a showing of "The Avengers" at 12:01am on Thursday there can be some question
of "Is that a few minutes after midnight of Wednesday night or Thursday night?".
However, when I walk in at 9pm on Wedneday, ask "Is there a showing of the Avengers
in three hours?", am told "Yes", and I buy two tickets, I will be very annoyed then when
I return at 11:30 I'm told that the movie doesn't start til "Tomorrow".
Today is Thursdat at 11:30am. If I see a movie 12 hours from now, that will be
11:30 PM on Thursday. If I see a movie 13 hours from now, that will be 12:30 AM
on Friday. It isn't a hard concept. *GRRR*
