Well, howdy folks! Let me tell ya somethin’ about them movies in Laurinburg, NC. Ain’t nothin’ fancy, mind you, but it’s somethin’ to do when you’re tired of watchin’ the corn grow.
Now, I ain’t been to the picture show in a coon’s age, but my grandkids, they go all the time. They tell me there’s this place called the Cinema of Laurinburg. Sounds right fancy, don’t it? They say it’s where you go to see all the new movies. Them Hollywood fellers, they sure do make a lot of pictures, I tell ya.
My grandbaby, she’s a smart one, she says you can find out what’s playin’ by lookin’ on the “website” or the “Facebook page.” I ain’t too sure what all that means, but she says it tells you what time the movies start. They call ’em “showtimes,” like it’s some kinda fancy horse show or somethin’. And if you ain’t got one of them newfangled computers, you can just call ’em up on the telephone. They got a number and all: (910) 291-3155. Easy enough to remember, I reckon.
- They got all sorts of movies, too. Comedies, where folks act all silly and make you laugh.
- Dramas, where folks cry and carry on. My grandbaby, she loves them romantic ones, where the boy meets the girl and they fall head over heels.
- And then there’s them action pictures, with all the shootin’ and fightin’. My grandson, he likes them ones. Says they got explosions and all sorts of ruckus. I tell ya, it’s enough to make your head spin.
Now, I hear tell there’s other places to find out about these movies too. This “Fandango” thing, whatever that is. Sounds like a dance, but my grandbaby says it helps you find movie theaters near you and buy tickets. She says you can even see what other folks think of the movie, the “reviews” they call ’em. Folks sure do like to talk, don’t they?
If you wanna know what’s playin’ right here in Laurinburg, you can look up “Laurinburg movies and movie times.” That’s what my grandbaby says. She’s always tappin’ away on that little phone of hers. Says it knows everything. Hmph, I know a thing or two myself, even if I ain’t got one of them fancy gadgets.
They got this other place, the “IMDb,” that tells you about the movies too. Sounds like a bunch of letters to me, but my grandbaby says it’s got all the information you could ever want. Release dates, who’s in the movie, all that jazz. They even got a list of the top 250 movies, like folks is keepin’ score or somethin’. And you can see Laurinburg Cinema showtimes right there, plain as day.
So, if you’re lookin’ for somethin’ to do in Laurinburg, and you’re tired of sittin’ on the porch swing, you might as well go see a movie. Just remember to check them showtimes, or you might end up sittin’ in an empty theater, talkin’ to yourself. And nobody wants that, now do they?
You can find out what’s playin’ by lookin’ for movies playing in theaters in Laurinburg. You can even sort ’em by what other folks think, the “user ratings,” they call ’em. Or by when they came out, the “release date.” Seems like there’s a whole lot of ways to find a movie these days. Back in my day, you just went to the picture show and hoped for the best. But I guess things change, don’t they?
And if you ain’t sure where to go, just look up “movie theaters near 28352 or Laurinburg.” That 28352, that’s the zip code, you know. For Laurinburg. My grandbaby showed me that too. She’s learnin’ me all sorts of new things. Even this old dog can learn new tricks, I reckon.
Anyways, that’s all I know about the movies in Laurinburg. Go on and see one if you want. Or don’t. It ain’t gonna skin off my nose either way.
