Went to see Mystic River with Hiroshi tonight. Excellent performance by Tim Robbins. Interesting movie - I liked it simply because it isn't the normal garbage Hollywood pumps out. Although the ending had a bunch of stupid crap that took away from the movie overall IMO.
Last month when we went to the show we got a movie-goers card. I forget the actual name. Anyway, it is 300 yen to buy it, but unless the woman made a mistake you get 200 yen off the ticket price every time! That was a nice surprise! And you get points - once you get 1000 points you get a free ticket. (You get 10% of what you buy in points) You can also collect more points for premium seating - it is kinda like a big couch that you and your 'date' can watch the show on - or for lunch or dinner at the hotel restaurant (the theater is in Shinagawa Prince Hotel) or even a stay at the hotel. That's pretty cool. So definitely worth the 300 yen.
Also went to Outback tonight for dinner. It was the worst service we have ever had. Absolutely awful. We waited five minutes for our server to come over and this was only after we flagged one down, it took them 20 minutes to bring our food, they never stopped by to see if we wanted refills on our drink, and the worst was it took them more than 20 minutes to bring our bill... despite asking THREE people!! I was not happy. We were standing there beside our table with our coats on ready to walk out before they finally brought it. If we weren't already 5 minutes late for the show I would've asked to complain to the manager. If we go back I will. For the prices you pay there that lack of service is appalling. Luckily their baked potatos taste sinfully delicious or I would definitely never go back there. OK - Outback rant over :)
