THE VENUE (SAM)
I haven't been to STAR JOHN R in years...and they have changed:
- They were bought by AMC about 6 years ago according to an Employee
- They have that awesome comfortable seating. I guess they have to compete with the other chains to get customers!
- THEY HAVE A BAR! wow. I never expected that- alot of couples and friends seemed to be enjoying this service.

THE EVENT! (JAKE)
Although the movie was Fifty Shades of Grey, we wanted the
theater to be anything but! The AMC Star on John R. Road in Madison Heights was
a perfect location for our adventure into this acclaimed, yet controversial,
tale of sexual fantasies and fetishes. Much to our surprise the elderly couple
with nipple clamps and bondage chains in their pockets was not there to see
this movie! We did, however, get to talk to a couple movie goers who had read
the books and knew their trivia! Drinks were shared, roses passed around, and a
nice photo shoot in front of the posters made for a fun pre-movie ceremony in
the main lobby!

| YES WE ARE CURIOUS...50 SHADES OF GREY WAS A GREAT MOVIE! |
Fifty
Shades of Drinks was the attention grabber at the MacGuffins bar located inside
of the lobby. We sipped suggestive titled drinks while we scanned the room for
our first trivia contestant. Not having to go far, we found our first
contestant, Emily, sitting at the bar with her friends. Having read all three
books, Emily was just the self-proclaimed expert we were looking for. She
agreed to let us film her, and Alexa, our own Fifty Shades of Grey expert, was
on point with the question. Emily won a gift card with her correct response, and
we chatted before moving on to the next group of contestants. Our second round
of trivia began with two friends enjoying their time before the movie. Although
not as much of an expert as Emily, our second contestants , Sarah & Liz, got the right answer
regardless, and earned themselves a gift card as well!
The Fifty Shades of Grey movie poster
was hidden in a corner next to the bar but made a nice stage for our little
photo shoot. How could we resist posing in front of the black and white
promotional poster! David did a great job mimicking the stern pose of a
confident Christian Grey, and Alexa's shirt was perfect for her photo role as
Anastasia Steele. But what's a romantic movie premiere without any roses? Just
a movie premiere, so to spice things up we brought along some roses to make the
night complete! David had a wide smile on his face as we captured him
presenting roses to Alexa who was patiently waiting for his arrival! All in
all, we had a fun pre-movie get together, and with popcorn in hand, we were
ready to see what all the fuss around Fifty Shades of Grey was all about.
THE TRIVIA CONTEST! (SAM)
We only were able to talk to a few people before we had to go in to see the movie. It was so much fun!

SO OUR HEROINE, Alexa was waiting for her 'Date', David K. and of course he was late for this Valentines Day Date! But He made up for it by bringing flowers!
 |
| "Where is David?" |
 |
| "He is so dead when I talk to him..." |
 |
| "OMG! He brought flowers! He's so sweet!" |
 |
| "Hey Babe...You made my Valentines Day!" |

BUBBLE TEA GIRL'S REVIEW (NOTHING GIVEN AWAY) (SAM)
Bubble thought it was pretty close to the book which I found unusual as the movies usually lack in some way. She liked it! But I can't say anymore as it would give away stuff...I'll try to get Alexa to give a review in the next week or so after everyone has seen it!
