Despite the 2am Skype messages from some that think it's really another time, the 12 hour time difference has been really great with movies...especially the release of Sex and the City. Despite the US Premiere date May 30, Singapore released the movie 2 days earlier in fact. So to "The Cathay" we went. The Cathay, a mall with a movie theater on the 5th floor, was packed! But four of us managed tickets on the front row. What an experience! The theater was packed with young asian women... giggling. The movie had Chinese subtitles and some editing for Singapore's standards. We had a great time!
But afterwards, we wanted a picture. However, Singapore has very strict piracy laws - so once we took a photo an usher came down demanding we delete the pictures. The picture was blurry so I deleted mine, but we still wanted proof of our early viewing. So not to become victims of a piracy scandal, we decided to take a picture with our reflection in it, but not our actual bodies outside of the theater . You can vaguely spot the outline of my hair in the middle of the pic. We'd give the movie 5 stars out of 5 with unexpected laughter for all audience members eligible for NC - 17 features.
