GOING TO A MOVIE
Conversation A:
George: Hi, Heather, I was wondering if you're free tomorrow night.
Heather: Well, George, I guess I am. Why do you ask?
George: I have just gotten a pair of pre-sale "Star Wars" movie tickets from a friend and was thinking of inviting you along for the opening premier. Are you interested?
Heather: Yeah, definitely! Thanks for inviting me!
George: No problem.
Heather: I really wanted to watch "Star wars" on the opening day but the pre-sale tickets were sold out. How did you manage to get hold of 'em?
George: A friend of mine works at the corporate headquarters of "Pepsi", which is a major sponsor of the movie. He was able to get the tickets for free, and then he sold 2 to me for $50 a piece.
Heather: You paid $50 for each ticket? That's a huge premium over the regular price!
George: Not really, considering the fact that other people are paying as high as $200 each on the "black market". Besides, I knew you were really looking forward to watching "Star Wars" on the opening day.
Heather: Wow, I'm really honored you went through all this trouble just for my sake. I really appreciate that. So, what time are we going?
George: Well, let's see. The movie starts at 10 PM. We should get there at least 1 hour earlier because there'll be a big line. I could pick you up at your house at 8, if that's OK with you.
Heather: 8 o'clock? That's fine with me.
George: Okay good.
Heather: So I'll see you tomorrow at 8 then?
George: Yeah. That's great. I'll see you tomorrow night, Heather.
Heather: Okay, George. Bye!
George: Bye, Heather.
Conversation B:
George: Wow, look at the line! It's worse than I expected. We're lucky we got here an hour early. Or else we would definitely have had problems getting good seats. I'm glad we made the effort to come early.
Heather: Me too. I learned my lesson the last time I went to a premier opening. I didn't arrive early enough and ended up with a terrible seat all the way in the front row! Believe me, it was one of the worst movie experiences ever.
George: Yeah! I hate sitting in the first row.
Heather: By the way, it was really thoughtful of you to get this ticket for me. Why don't I show you a bit of appreciation by getting you some popcorn and a drink?
George: That would be great!
Heather: OK. What kind of soda do you want?
George: Let me see... I'll take a large Coke. As for the popcorn, medium size will do. Thanks a lot.
Heather: I better get going. You hold my place and I'll be back real quick. Oh... I almost forgot. I better hold on to my ticket stub in case you get let in before I get back. If that happens, just save me a seat and I'll meet you inside.
George: Okay. It's a plan.
(Ten minutes later... inside the theater.)
George: Over here Heather, on your left!
Heather: There you are!
George: Here you go! I saved this seat just for you.
Heather: Thanks. Here's your popcorn and Coke. Sorry it took me so long. There was a huge line at the counter.
George: That's OK. Thank you so much. I love popcorn. Did you add butter?
Heather: Yes I did. I thought you might like butter on your popcorn. I'm glad I made it back before the trailers started. I like trailers. They're part of the whole movie-going experience.
George: I think so too. Even though they're just previews, they tend to be quite entertaining. You know movie trailers are a fundamental marketing tool for production companies. They greatly affect the initial appeal and overall gross profits of a film.
Heather: Speaking of which, I think the trailers are about to begin. Let's sit back and enjoy.
Conversation C:
George: So... what did you think about the movie?
Heather: Well... I think this "Star Wars" episode is an excellent piece of work. But not
