The latest Marvel movie is in theaters at last. Spider-Man: Homecoming... yay... But honestly, who gives a flying fuck. Peter Parker is back in high school again, and the plotline has once again been reset to Square One. Booooring. You've already seen enough of high school Peter in both of the Spider-Man franchise and have gotten tired of it. You want to see the rest of the comics they haven't adapted, the numerous excellent titles that have never made it onto the screen like that one gritty Jean DeWolff crime noir storyline or "Kraven's Last Hunt". You were also disappointed by his Civil War appearance, not because he had little screentime - that was understandable - but because he had this inane hero-worship for Tony Stark when his true hero in the comics was ol' Cap. He should've been Team Cap like in the comics. Worshiping that giant ego of a prick made no sense for the humble Peter Parker who always had a strong sense of moral value like Steve Rogers himself.
As a matter of fact, you've gotten bored of Marvel movies in general. But that's just the way it is with mainstream movies, hyped up merchandises factory-produced for the public without much substance. No wonder you rarely go to the cinemas anymore.
But since you are here already, you might as well pick something to watch. You still have four to five hours to kill. As you step towards the box office, however, a strange old geezer tips his fedora at you and proceeds to pull something from his pocket. Your heart skips a beat for a moment, worried that he might be some psychopath trying to shoot you, but your anxiety is relieved and replaced with curiosity when you see a piece of paper in his hand - a golden ticket to be exact.
"Interested in going to the movies, sonny?" the wrinkled man asks as he hands you the ticket. "Then you won't want to miss out on this."
It must be some promotional event, you think to yourself. You didn't know there's another Willy Wonka movie out already. You weren't impressed by the remake, but it's not like there's a proper adaptation of the amazing Roald Dahl book anyway. However, you have a gut feeling that the ticket is something special - or at least that's what you want to feel to make the day much less boring than it already is. Maybe you'll win a prize or something at least.
What shall you do?
