'Star Wars' fans wait at wrong theater
 
Still, the resolute "Star Wars" die-hards aren't moving on. Beneath a makeshift awning, 11 people refused to relinquish their spots in line.

"We've heard all this before," fan Sarah Sprague said, noting there were plenty of rumors in 1999 and 2002 that previous "Star Wars" movies weren't opening at the Chinese Theater. The rumors were false and the films were shown there.

I just finished the book yesterday, awesome story and this will be the best of all 6 movies..... But 7 weeks????

I refuse to wait 10 mins in line at the right movie theater let alone 7 weeks in the wrong one...

Jel 2005-04-07 01:44 AM

Man, I can't wait til I get my hands on a pirated version on DVD :D
I'm like you, 10 minutes in the right queue and I'm ready to blow lol

Seriously, can't wait until it get's released over here :D

Star Wars, Schmar Wars. Hitchhikers opens the 29th! |bananna|

Jimmy O 2005-04-07 05:48 AM

Is the trailer out yet?

Ramster 2005-04-07 08:38 AM

7 weeks in line? damn!

This movie is going to be so good I think. Can't wait.

Trailers are online!

Guess the Force wasn't with them

I really liked the last one, hated the first one, this one does look like it will be good.

Greenguy 2005-04-07 09:27 AM

I am a huge Star Wars fan but there's no way in fucking hell I'm waiting in line to see the movie - fucking morons.

I'll wait til it's out 3 or 4 weeks & then go on a Wednesday afternoon when the theater is empty so that I don't have to be annoyed by "people" while I enjoy my |popcorn|

This does remind me that I want to watch I & II before I see III :)

JanTM 2005-04-07 09:29 AM

Damn are they going to look stupid if the movies doesn't show in that theatre :)

Greenguy 2005-04-07 09:30 AM

They look stupid now, regardless of if the movie plays there or not :D

Waiting for the DVD...I don't need a bunch of nimrods with plastic lightsabers and Jedi powers of nerdiness to add ambiance to my movie going experience.

Jimmy O 2005-04-07 11:46 AM

I'm gonna see it in the cinema...
Usually they have the "watch all three and get a free beer and popcorn for a cheap price" here in Denmark, so I'm gonna do that a week after the premier.
7 hours of starwars, that's not bad!

Not gonna wait till the dvd thats for sure, some movies are made to be seen at the big picture :D
Revenge of the sith is one of 'em

Can't wait |pink

plateman 2005-04-07 11:53 AM

I also love star wars and have the DVD box set and I seen the trailer on tv last night and it look killer - cant wait either

SirMoby 2005-04-07 12:44 PM

I think I might wait 7 minutes in line but if I waited much longer then that I'd have to wait until it came out on DVD.

May the force be with you

Jim 2005-04-07 12:46 PM

I just can't get interested in the newer Star Wars movies.

Aren't the new ones older though?

wow.... so YOU'RE the other guy back there :D

Torn Rose 2005-04-07 02:25 PM

watching the news a guy was wearing Jedi robes and holding a lightsaber.... which looked good, except for the fact he was also dressed as a M&M.... yes the candy M&M in a Jedi Robe....

I honestly do not remember where I saw this, but someone posted a blog that had pictures of all these geeks at Star Wars conventions.... and they hammered a guy who went as Spiderman

Classic.

dareutwo 2005-04-07 09:44 PM

I'll wait for the DVD - September 09 perhaps??
No biggie, I'll find it.

Joe 2005-04-10 05:39 PM

I was disappointed (I know other fans were too) at Ep I, and Ep II.

Hopefully, Ep III will make up for it.

I saw the spoilers for it, and it looked a bit iffy-- But we'll see.

Btw, here's a link to the Ep III trailers: http://www.movie-list.com/trailers.php?id=starwars3

JanTM 2005-04-10 05:57 PM

The trailer looks like a dark and more evil movies... I love it already :D
Although I wont stand in line for a ticket on the opening night... I'll be in the theatre as soon as possible thereafter.

ecchi 2005-04-11 06:54 AM

When the film opens over here, I'll just pick up the 'phone and book by credit card. No queue no wait. Don't you guys have CC booking in America ?

Are you actually serious?

No, we don't have CC booking -- I have no clue why, but it's a good idea.

ecchi 2005-04-11 07:34 AM

Wow, for once the UK is ahead of the US, don't think that has happened since we invented TV !

I would probably go out a lot less if I could not book for films, shows, and events in advance by 'phone, I hate queueing.

Kinky 2005-04-11 07:40 AM

you can buy tickets online in the US... my cousin-in-law is the biggest star wars freak on the planet, has 2 bedrooms in his house dedicated to it, and laughs at the people in line and buys his tix online and gets in the first show somehow
