On Thursday I was invited to see the new Star Trek movie with some co-workers. As the last movie I saw at a Cinema was Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter almost a year ago, I figured hey why not?!
So many things are different in China, even the cinema! I'm not sure why I thought it would be the same as the United States, it's not like I've been to a cinema in any other country. However for some reason I thought it would be the same. I was pleasantly surprised. For one the seats are tiered so that unless the person sitting in front of you is 2 feet tall you won't have to worry about them blocking you view. At a height of 5'3 3/4" I notice things like this.
The cinema also has assigned seating, at first I thought this was really different, but then I remembered the difficulty of getting a large section of "good" seats if you are going with friends. Here it doesn't matter if you walk in a minute before the movie starts you don't have to worry about finding a seat. Why don't we do this in America?
