Hey, I was there, too. And yes, when Kate breaks through the mirror into
the red world after the first fifteen minutes in this beige/grey world was
visually stunning (not a word I use too often). I literally stopped
breathing. 

However, I will never forgive the bimo and her boyfriend who sat in front
of me and loudly munched popcorn all the way through MoP.

You know, generally, I think the LoveHounds have been way too harsh on the
film. There's a lot of good in it and maybe everyone's expectations were
just a BIT high. Maybe if Sony hadn't kept calling it a "film ..."
