San Andreas movie night was a very exciting event at Stockton. The event was held in the Campus center Theater at 9:00 PM. It was offered twice, once on Thursday, September 10, 2015, and once on Saturday, September 12, 2015. Upon arrival students were greeted and swiped in. All students were given a raffle ticket for the drawing at the end. All students attending the movie were invited to get a snack and drink from the concession stand. All refreshments were free. The drink choices included water, Pepsi and other sodas. The snack choices included Sun Chips, Doritos, Pretzels, Potato Chips, Fritos, Cheetos and several other chips. When one entered the theater, a Scooby-Doo cartoon was playing. The sound was low, but could be heard easily, by those paying attention. The lights were still on fully. After the cartoon was over, typical movie theater previews came on. The lights dimmed a little bit, as the crowd entered the theater. Some previews highlighted new movies coming to theaters and other highlighted new television series premiering soon. The sound was turned up to typical movie theater level, a roar so loud it demands undivided attention. By the end of the previews the rustling of guests entering the theater had dulled, and it was clear it was near time for the movie to start. After the different previews finished running, the lights were dimmed to the point where they were nearly off. The person in the sound booth skillfully took out the preview tape and put in the movie for the night. San Andreas was an incredible action packed movie. It was focused on the idea of the San Andreas Fault Line opening, and the damage it would cause. I found this particularly interesting after attending the Climate control panel and hearing that if global warming increases, the world will be more prone to natural disaster. The movie also had a focus on one family and how they survived the disaster.

After the movie ended and the credits were nearly over, the film was stopped. It was time for the raffle. Three participants in the movie night won tickets to the movie theater. This event was incredible and I enjoyed every minute of it. I am looking forward to the next movie night! Is anyone else?
