okay. how many members have not seen this movie?

what i mean is, of all the members here who live near a theater screening this movie, how many of you are losers, how many of us havent seen it even once yet?

i mean, i figured by now we can chop openly about it, but then again there are members who have to wait for the dvd and there is likely to be many losers around here who havent gotten around to it yet..

so, i wanted to do an anonymous poll, because that would seem more effectively accurate
but we c a n t do polls anymore
so im just asking right out
going the honest route

I haven't seen it because the closest theatre playing Choke is about an hour and a half away. Since they're not going to a wider release, I'm going to have to wait for the dvd.

I just avoid the threads with spoilers but I have read the book so there shouldn't be anything too shocking anyway.

well, a few months ago a friend of mine reread choke to prepare for the movie
i didnt. both of us were very impressed with it. jen--my woman--couldnt stop laughing. she generally hates the theater. i somehow got her to view the dark knight with me and she moaned the whole time. this is stupid, was the most common comment. she is not a critical person, except when it comes to movies. the bourbon probably didnt help, i guess. still, she hated the dark knight so i was prepared to shake the shit outta her during the movie choke (i preplanned that you couldnt choke a woman during a movie titled choke), but she fucking loved it. and it was far from her favorite chuck book. she still makes jokes from the movie.

I was...not disappointed, but not pleased. It was exactly as I expected, and no better. Eh.

Oh yeah, and saw it the second day out, that saturday.

Haven't seen it, ain't jazzed up about it to be honest. It ain't released in Holland yet. And probably won't get a theatrical release.

I saw it last night, second night out. Had to make a trip to see it and scam the ticket fellow to get my under-age friend in, but it was most definitely worth the effort. I left the cinema with such an amazing feeling of satisfaction.

Hey I JUST got back from an advanced screening of Choke here and I really liked it! I thought it was really funny! The other thing was EEEVERYONE in the cinema watching this movie was really hot, it was a babe magnet, I almost didn't wanna leave. But anyway, it was the best thing I've seen in the cinema for ages. I'm all chipper now.

I don't know if I'm just too late, or what, but I have been looking for this movie for a while now and I don't know why I cannot find a showing in Chuck's home town.

You're way late, dude. It came out in September and vanished from screens soon after.

I saw it the first day it came out and the theater was basically me and 3 friends who read the book plus maybe 5 others.

So in all 7 people went to see it on opening day down here, lol.

Oh well I thought it was worth the $9 I spent to see it, and I love Choke so I wasn't going to miss the movie! (though it's not my favorite book, when Invisible Monsters comes out with a movie you can bet I'll watch that one as many times as possible Smile Big )
