It starts tomorrow night. I guess my midnight of the 27th is not the same as their midnight of the 27th. But if I knew anything about movie openings, I guess I would have gone on the right night. What can I say? I've never been to a midnight showing before. To add insult to injury, after I bought the ticket, I realized I got the regular show and not the IMAX ticket. So now I gotta exchange it. I really want to see a 50 ft. tall MJ, and not a mere 20 ft. tall moonwalk and crotch grab.
