I was very happy when I got an invite to a blocked screening of the new Star Trek (movie): Into Darkness. Albeit the invite came in on short notice I was still very happy to accept it but alas the short notice also meant minimal pickings for a movie date since the husband had work and after being unsuccessful in looking for a date I just resolved to watch the movie alone - a first I might add but still surprisingly enjoyable.
There was a bit of reservation since I am not that all familiar with the original series and (40 year-old) franchise by Gene Roddenberry, my Dad would probably disown me by saying that but just like exploring an unknown world - I went ahead with high hopes and expectations which for now I will say were pretty much met - if not even exceeded but like all other movie premiere posts I reserve my Movie Musings (Movie Review) for a separate post and would mostly focus on the event itself and boy was this an event! Which was held at Gateway by the way.
Although I would have to shamefully admit I was late there was still no regrets as I made my way to the cinema - because lo and behold! There was a cocktail for the movie! I had no idea that the event was sponsored by Pizza Hut - which has always been close to my heart --err stomach.

| A Pizza Hut Catered Event?!?! Count me in! |
It was a nice little shindig complete with catered food from Pizza Hut - ah! It could have been heaven on earth and it was complete with the whole cocktail table set up. I immediately took photos with my phone- so pardon the quality of the photos or lack of it. Since Paul wasn't with me, we don't have 'PCheng Worthy' photos to post for this blog :( Hopefully next time :P
