New Movie Theater

     It was a surreal moment.  I have been going to the same movie theater since 1990.  It was old and nasty and at some point I banned it from my life.  I was tired of sticking to nasty floors and wondering what was on my seat.  I also chose to support the little local theater.  Last night I returned to the big cinema.  It drew me in with its new sound system, big screen and stadium seating...oh, and The Muppets were playing there.  What used to be a few steps from the lobby area to the theater space was now a large hallway full of digital signs and multiple rooms.  It was as if I was in some Alice in Wonderland moment.  The hallway just kept growing.  My little mall has a real theater now....very odd. 
     So the Muppets.  It's been years and I was a huge fan in my youth.  The movie had quite the potential to let me down.  It did not.  It was wonderfully entertaining, sweetly sentimental and just plain old fun.  Though seeing the old crew was like being with old friends...the cameo appearances were a treat in themselves.  It was a nice way to kick off a cherished few days of family and thanks.
