A listing of the tickets in my ticket wallet.

[loopychew]

Having just gone through the "I've seen XX out of XXX movies!" meme on Facebook, I decided to look through the envelope I keep my movie tickets in and index them here as they are. Some of them are faded enough that I had to spend a couple of minutes trying to glean off the traces where the printer ink would have been before I could figure them out.

This is by no means a complete listing of the movies I've seen since the first ticket listed--I can tell you immediately, there was a ticket for X-Men in August 2000 that I would kill to have, for sentimental reasons (having it for sentimental reasons, not killing for sentimental reasons)--but it encompasses most of it (I'm pretty sure I saw a lot more movies in the theatre in 2001, like Ocean's Eleven). I can immediately list said X-Men ticket, Crash, and either Jarhead or Batman Begins, depending on which Hollywood ticket that was, amongst the missing. There was also the family outing to Enchanted to which I appear to have misplaced the stub around Thanksgiving 2007. Sometimes things simply get lost when they've been building up in my wallet for a long time, despite my attempts to preserve them.

I'm not sure if this list will be added to in the future, or if I'll simply post a refresh from time to time.

The listing is as follows: Movie name - Time/Date - Theatre in which I saw it (and, if applicable, what the theatre is now--at least in Switzerland, where I can keep track of these things)

That reminds me that I wanted to make a poll in which one of the questions would be who keeps ticket stubs. Glad to see that I'm not the only one. :)

I'll keep an eye out for that poll. :-)

(By the way, since I've noticed in your profile that you like to find out how people find your journal... I found it through cleolinda, as did lots of other people.

Yes, thank you. I'm always curious. Since she mentions my blog regularly, Cleo is a main source for the visitors of my blog.
