Works out on the Marine base, then goes to see a Marine-hating movie. Nice.

Did they pay for the popcorn?

Did they pay for all the other seats? Theatres have been selling oout so that is lost revenue.

Wonder why The Won decided on Avatar.
Cast includes typical blue people.

Stupid movie for this family. But then again, Obama might get some ideas for his virtual world.

Ruined the experience for everyone else, “sold out”. Presidents can typically have any current release they request screened at the White House.

Renting a room at your local movie theater isn’t difficult, and it’s not all that expensive.
