I can either see 35mm of Saving private ryan in my town or drive two hours to see the searchers in an indie theater in Newport. I haven’t been to Newport in years and thought it could be a fun day out, but the allure of seeing SPR in 35mm has me rethinking. In your experience, does 35mm always enhance an experience to such a degree that you’d rather see a movie you’re not too interested in just for the 35mm? I do want to see Saving Private Ryan, but John Ford is my #1 director so I’m in a pickle

I'm writing a story on Bob Montana's connection to Lake Winnipesaukee, NH, the lake where he'd go every summer as a kid before moving to laketown Meredith, NH as an adult and inventing Archie. I wanted to delve into how the lake may have inspired his writings but I haven't read much classic Archie. Archie heads, help me out!

So basically I have two cards, both have 15k utilization. My Chase card has 14k balance, Discover has 7k balance. I called Chase to ask about hardship programs and they told me the only option is to go past due and then they can offer one. I did, but the offer was no APR but they'd cancel the card after (which I heard was very bad for credit score).

After I went past due, I discovered Balance Transfers. I applied to a Discover one saying I needed a 14k transfer and I got approved immediately, but I just noticed the offer said the credit line was only $4500.

- Is there any hope for me to get at least the 14k Chase balance on another card or is 4500 my best bet? I'm pretty pissed at Chase for recommending I go past due in the first place.

- Should I activate the Discover card anyways? Or try for a new one like the Citisimplicity since it isn't connected to my Chase or Discover.

- Does it help or hurt if I apply to a balance transfer card that is unrelated to Chase or Discover

- Am I especially screwed given I just got accepted for that other Discover card. Is it too late to not go through with activating it?

Thank you all so much. I thought I was finally out of this mess but now am more worried than ever
