So, I had the kind of day that made me want to escape into a movie with a glass of wine. Since I don't have a DVD player or any alcohol at home, I decided to find a show at the Alamo Drafthouse I wanted to see. THis is one of the lovely things about living in Austin.
Tonight, however, it was not so lovely. I saw the the presidential debates were streaming at all the Drafthouse locations, and that was fine. I found the movie I wanted to see, and it was only showing in one place, all the way across town. So, I double checked the times and knew I could make it. I clicked to buy tickets online, but decided I would rather pay in cash, so I canceled the sale before it went through. So, I fought traffic, found the theater and went to buy my tickets. Lo and behold, the screening of the film I wanted to see was cancelled to provide more room for the debates.
WHY CAN'T THEY UPDATE THE WEBSITE WITH THAT KIND OF PERTINENT INFORMATION?? It's not like I checked hours in advance. I was within an hour of the movie's start time, AND it was going to allow me to purchase a ticket for a showing that was cancelled! If I hadn't rushed across town, I wouldn't have been so bothered, but after that I ended up lost and frustrated and movie-less.
So, to anyone who runs a website...UPDATE IT before people drive across town to go to things that no longer exist. Thank you!
