I'm hoping for something on Thursday when we're all free after work for the day here in Albuquerque.

I don't really have one planned yet. Any suggestions? We go to the movies a lot, so we want something pretty new.

Considering I'm going with my two big brothers, I think I need to steer clear of the romance. I'd like to see Harley, but my oldest brother refuses to watch R-rated movies in theaters, so it looks like we're going for Sonic!

Alright. May I give you a list of showtimes, or do you have a specific time frame I should use to narrow it down?
user
My middle brother gets off work at 5:30 in the afternoon, but my oldest brother has to be home to put my nephew to sleep by 8:30, so I need a 6:00 or 6:30 showing.

The Rio Rancho is practically on the other side of the city. I'm not sure my middle brother could get there in time after work.

So an hour and forty, plus maybe fifteen or twenty for the ads and trailers. That would take it to two hours, plus extra if it doesn't start right on time. I don't know if we could make it all the way to the Cottonwood Mall where that theater is and still have my oldest brother get home on time. I was really hoping for something closer. Sorry, I guess I'd better cancel the movie idea.
