Review: Avengers Endgame

(paraphrased)

J: so I'm out of town for a week starting the Saturday after Avengers is released.

Me: just so you know, I fully intend to see Endgame on my own that week if you are not around.

J: well lets look at the available showings on Friday.

Me: they all suck. No seats or terrible seats.

J: hmm, they have some Thursday night shows.

Me: ...and the one at 22:50 has seats that are not singles, front row, way-the-hell over to one side.

J: should we? It's a three hour movie, starting at 11 PM, so we won't be getting home until 2:30 AM. On a school/work night.

Me: sure, do it. It's almost certainly a terrible idea, even if I can't think of why it is a terrible idea right at this moment.

J: okay, done. Two tickets for 22:50 on Thursday night.

Me: (not thirty seconds later) who the hell are we going to get to look after the kids at 10:30 on a Thursday night?
