Time keeps on slippin...

... slippin', slippin' into the future.
Well, it's a been a couple days since I last updated this old blog, and not much has happened since. We sent a rough draft of the business plan out to a select group of friends and family, but didn't receive much back in the way of criticism, which can mean one of two things: either it's nearly flawless, or it's too damn long for people to read through. Probably a little of both. Either way, it's going out tomorrow.
In other news, I've thought up a new, wild and crazy idea to lure people into our theater. It's tentatively called "Live Nude Nicole"! Ha ha ha, just kidding. That won't happen until at least our second or third year of business. The idea is called MHS: Moxie Heckling Series. Here's the gist of it:
First, we book a really bad movie - it can be a contemporary stinker (e.g. Gigli, From Justin to Kelly, Glitter, Baby Geniuses) or an oldie but stinky (The Pod People, Nothing But Trouble, Plan 9 From Outer Space, Heidi). Then we invite people to come in and heckle it, Mystery Science Theater style. Of course, to insure optimum heckle saturation, we'd turn the sound down a bit and run specials on beer and wine at the Cinebar. The tickets would be cheap too. We could also collaborate with the SMS or Drury improv troupes - that way there will always be a trained individual on hand to break the heckling ice if an accident occurs or everyone freezes up.
PATRON A - Don't open that door, you dipshit!
( laughs )
PATRON B - That dude looks like my aunt!
( giggles )
PATRON C - You've got a hot aunt! What's her number?
( guffaws )
PATRON D - My crotch is warm. I need some napkins AND I just ate 12 boogers.
( silence )
IMPROVIST - Uh... hey, where's the beef!
( laughs )
I think the college kids will love it! What do you guys think?
