I'm visiting Portland with two friends and we want to see a movie. What's playing now?
Movies currently playing are Birds of Prey, Joker, The Irishman, and a special screening of The Shining.
Those are all dramatic. Aren't there any good comedies or funny movies?
Unfortunately my search didn't find any comedy movies currently playing in theatres in Portland at this time.
Okay, Birds of Prey might be fun. I guess we'll go see that one.
Sounds like a plan. Do you have any preference for a theatre?
No, I don't know what's in the area. Is there a Regal or an AMC available?
Unfortunately I could not find an AMC or a Regal in the Portland area.
Okay, geez. What is available?
There is a small local establishment called Movie Mark, and a bigger chain called Bowtie Cinema.
I've never heard of either of them. Which one has better prices?
Movie Mark seems to have more discounts, but Bowtie Cinema has a higher review overall.
Okay, let's go with Bowtie then. What are the show times available?
Birds of Prey is available at 2:30 PM, 4 PM and 7:30 PM.
That's not a lot of times. Are there any available in IMAX or 3D?
It seems these are all for the standard display. I cannot find any information about IMAX or 3D offerings.
Okay, I guess we'll go with the 4 PM showing then.
Understood. How many tickets would you like to purchase?
Three. Me and two friends.
Unfortunately it seems like the 4 PM showing is sold out and there are no seats available at this show time. Would you like to choose another?
No, at this point it's just ridiculous. We'll just do something else.
I'm sorry there doesn't seem to be many options for you to choose from. Would you like me to search another location for you?
Not right now. Thanks, though.
Understood, goodbye.
