Metreon and The Hulk

Jeff and I went to the Metreon last Sunday after the WWDC Student Sunday stuff was over. I have to say, I was rather disappointed. We both thought it was going to be a "geek's paradise." They claim to have the best arcade in the Bay Area, but they didn't have that many games and it didn't seem that impressive. Of course there were stores with tons of Sony products. The most exciting store though was the one which had a bunch of anime/video game action figures, t-shirts, and manga. The "Action Theatre" shows anime on Sundays, but it was closed when we were there, even though it was supposed to be open. Jeff and I did see the Hulk there. Since there wasn't that much else to do at the Metreon, we decided to go sit in the theater a good 30 minutes before the movie was supposed to start. I have to say I was quite pleased with the music they were playing in the theater during this time. Some of the bands were New Found Glory, Sum 41, American Hi-Fi, and Fiction Plane. As for Hulk, it was an ok movie. Kinda long, and nothing extraordinary, but better than sitting in hotel room. Plus Jennifer Connelly is hot.
