I figured that one out right then and there.
jonny- tell me about it! I couldn't agree with you more on how lame this teaser is! I figured they wouldn't accept it! Don't worry, not all my teasers are THAT bad....
too easy, come on bring it on!
it could of been 10 pm and it started at 10am.
Got it!!
I said the same thing, in reverse though they came in the pm and the movie was in the morning
The movie could have also started at 10 PM and the girls arrived at 10 AM, or the movie could have gotten canceled (due to power problems).
the paper could have gotten the ad wrong, the theatre could have had problems, the show mightn't have been "playing" but rather "showing" (careful use of words there), the girls could have arrived at the wrong am/pm time, the girls could have gone to the wrong theatre, the girl selling the tickets could have been wrong....want me to keep going?
I thought the movie was broke.
Yes, or they could have gone on the wrong day, or to the wrong cinema, or the cashier could have been mistaken. I'm sure there are other possibilities. Way too easy.
i thought the girls went on the wrong day!
I find that one too easy
