She went to see "Wild Hogs" because her husband likes Harleys. She said it was ok and that John Travolta was nice to look at.

Her last movie she saw was "Best Little Whorehouse in Texas" with Dolly Parton and Burt Reynolds. She took me when I was around 13-14 and only went to see it because she liked Dolly Parton and had no clue what a Whorehouse is

1. Did she have whiplash after reacting to the price of the tix?

2. may i ask why?
just wondering. my grandmother loved movies but stopped going after developing a phobia of public places. She finally went to a movie in 1990 and liked it, but didn't go again and died in 1993.

The movie was Home Alone. :-)

3. It's been at least 15 years since I went to one. I can't sit still for 90 minutes; I wouldn't
be able to walk afterward.

4. Hell, the last movie I saw
in a theater was " Wedding singer" :blush:

I guess there is something to be said for hanging out on my own couch and eating popcorn and jelly bellies!
