More on Seeing Watchmen

The four of us saw Watchmen at the Cinemagic Theaters in Hooksett, NH, on an IMAX screen. This was pretty exciting, it had been a half dozen years or so since I'd seen an IMAX movie.
Unfortunately, we didn't get there early enough. Walking in the theater at 6:15 for a 6:30 showing, we were greeted by a packed house. and I found seats together in the 3rd row, to the far left. The others weren't as 'lucky,' they found some single seats on the row further up.
Our seats sucked; watching the HUGE screen entailed looking up and to the far right. Doing that for the nearly three hour run time of the movie wasn't fun and left a crink in my neck. Fortunately, I was pretty immersed in the film and didn't think about that much.
Also late to the movie was the family of four with two kids in the 10-12 year old range that mentioned.
