Things to do in San Jose when you're dead

[cyrano]

While wandering downtown San Jose on Sunday, we came across a couple of flyers for things we might be interested in. I post the information here for my own and anybody else's reference.


Midnight Movies at Camera 7 on Friday or Camera 12 on Saturday
11-12 July Hellboy 2 (tickets available now)
18-19 July Dark Knight
25-26 July X-Files 2
1-2 August Mummy 3
8-9 August Wrath of Khan
15-16 August Clone Wars
22-23 August Who Framed Roger Rabbit?

I'm amused that most of these are sequels. (Okay, all of them but the last one.)

(Discovered while online--San Pedro Square on Wednesday nights is showing free movies at dusk.)

Metro Music in the Park at Plaza Cesar Chavez, free concerts on Thursday nights.
17 July Flogging Molly
24 July Vanessa Carlton
21 August White Album Ensemble

EDIT: Looks like Music in the Park starts at five-thirty. Timing on that could be tricky, especially since I don't get out of work until six.

So are we doing Hellboy this weekend? Since I don't have access to email, I don't know if there's any going around today or not.

I think if tickets are already on-sale, we should buy them ASAP.

I have seen nothing so far on the former, but I am agreed on the latter. Do you want me to grab two, and then we'll see who else jumps on board?
(And did we decide on Saturday or Sunday?)

I'm down with Hellboy, though Saturday afternoon is bad for me, Sunday or Saturday morning I can go.

What about midnights?

I am concerned that one of your very advanced age would attempt a midnight viewing of a rather raucous movie. Maybe you should consider an afternoon viewing followed by local 430pm buffet where you can have the chicken fried meat product and potatoes. Of course the buffet will be best if you wear your slippers so you don't waste anytime in getting home to bed.

It would seem petty at this point to mention that you're only eighteen months younger than I am. So I won't.

Looking forward to your visit, since I can't manage to get out there. (:

Midnight should work!

There was no decision about Saturday or Sunday on Hellboy at least. I think I'd prefer the Friday/Saturday night showing, though, simply so it doesn't screw around with Farmer's Market Sunday.

Also, Friday/Saturday night showing is at the Camera 7, allowing Miss Friday to attend if she so chooses. :)

Then I'm thinking command decision. So let it be written, so let it be done.

If you are going to Camera 7, let me know. It's within walking distance of my flat, and I'd be likely to join you.

[cyranocyrano.livejournal.com]

Yay! Are any of these movies not of interest to you?
(It sounds like buying tickets in advance is going to be a wise idea.)

[miss-friday.livejournal.com]

Hellboy & Dark Knight. Maybe Rodger Rabbit, but that's getting toward the time I need to buckle down for work.

[cyranocyrano.livejournal.com]

Then I will pick up a ticket for you for this Friday.

[tavella.livejournal.com]

Which show did you decide on?

[cyranocyrano.livejournal.com]

The one on Friday. (:

[tavella.livejournal.com]

Yes, but what time and place? These things are important for the ticket-buying.

[cyranocyrano.livejournal.com]

Cool.
The Friday showing of the midnight movies is going to be at midnight on Saturday morning at the Camera 7, in Campbell. I understand that's in the Pruneyard. And if you follow the link in the post, you should be able to get to a page where you can easily get a ticket.

Disregard previous message about link and ease of purchase. Apparently their 'buy' link jumps from Thursday the tenth to Friday the eighteenth. I'm looking into that.

[cyranocyrano.livejournal.com]

Well, technically Saturday morning. Eeeeearly Saturday morning.
