Fandango

[ChrisReid]

Woohoo.. Justin found a theater just a couple miles from our Hotel in LA that has open Matrix Reloaded slots. We Fandango'd ourselves seats tonight. Should be fun. I can't wait to see the thousands of E3 people scraping to get into the theater. It'll be just like those Fandango commercials. "I work for Mr. Fandango! There's a wild Fandango loose in the theater!"

That must be really funny for people who know the fandango commercial.

That's actually what I was thinking...

 

[Maniac II]

you mean you guys have never seen it???

 

[panther]

Nope.

I'm guessing it's a US commercial?

 

[Maniac II]

yeah its an American commercial

 

[panther]

The only Fandango I'd ever heard of was that old Lucasarts game.

What's the ad for/about?

 

[Maniac II]

its an add for a company that reserves tickets for movies i think...


what happens is this guy tries to get in to see a movie... and gets stopped coz he didnt reserve tickets and they're all sold out... a couple come by him and try to get in, and almost get turned around but they said they had reserved them with Fandago and they get in... well that guy from the beginning of the commercial hears this but has no clue what "Fandago" is... so he goes up to the booth repetedly trying to get in and says things like "i work for Mr.Fandango"... or pulls an animal control impersonation and says "theres a wild Fandango loose in there"... its a funny commercial... but you got to see it for yourself...
