So why the self deprivation routine? At least join a monestary, you can brew beer and grow plants that way.

Exactly and The where is nowhere and the when is probably never. However that response needs some form of responable justification, as I am I suppose a fan of sorts and just a NEVA SUCKAS!! can be read as a troll, even if it is actually a legitimate answer to the question asked to begin with. I feel a well justified answer has to be put to what is after all an unusual position for a Star Wars board.

Plus, JMK asked a good question (even if obvious) so he deserved a reply.

You lost me at "I.... " because I think I've said it why not. My answers above if you want to re-read or my avatar says it all really.

I'm still failing to grasp how a few quid and half as many hours at the "Talkies" is going to prevent you from reaching Doriiiftuuu Zen. It's a movie. They're not exactly asking for your foreskin and a vow of celibacy at the ticket booth.

I'd probably murder Jerry's Kids if some man in a suit told me I could only entertain one of my many recreational flights of fancy.

So I dont really think any movie is worth my time at the moment, why's that an issue? If I believe I can find more relaxation and fun doing somethign else, then why should I even consider a theatre, even if Ep III is a unique event?

Really Charlie, I dont think it matters if I believe I should not be wasting time on theatres. Silly point scoring or FYAD posting isnt going to prove any point and it's only serving to continue pollution in a discussion that should have had has my contributions the first two posts only anyway.

Because you contradicted yourself five posts previously in stating that you can't really justify any leisure activities that aren't in themselves a means to an end.

As for point scoring and FYAD posting, I have no idea where you're coming from. I'm actually making a point here.

Not that it matters. I'm not going to be a party to this passive/aggressive posting any more than I already have. G'night.

I got the days off and I'm going!!!!!!!!!!!

Now the only question is whether I'm going in Santa Maria CA, or if I want to drive down to LA for the bigger and better theaters.

[Lilaena De'Ville]

If you go to LA you could go with a group from the boards - Lady Vader and her crew are settling in and waiting in line for 24 hours before the midnight show.

[Torn Dlo]

I read something about that, and it does call me attention. It's definitely something I'll have to look into.

Yeah. I have my doubts if I ever will. It's not somethign I could justify as a priority - I can justify some lesiure activites and even marginalyl justify motor racing as it's selling the ability to make racing parts - it's difficult to sell to myself a movie, any movie or DVD. I cant even really justify Internet time if it wasnt for the fact I have another screen with work open at the same time or I need a quick mental break.

I understand what you mean, sometimes certain activities just don't seem important no matter how important or simple to enjoy they are to others. Going to a movie may have been a great release a few years ago, but now something that just doesn't seem justified to you. I'm like that way with the Simpsons. Loved the show, still do, but rarely watch it. It just doesn't fit in with my life or schedule. Still buy the DVD's and catch an occasional re-run, but new episodes on Sunday just don't seem like they're worth the effort.

But I do suggest you make some time for ROTS. From all the images I've seen here at Indy it's going to be a hell of ride. You may end up pleasantly surprised.

Where: Westbury Stadium 12, in NY

When: 12:01 AM, Thursday 5-19-05 (Listed as Wednesday 5-18-05)

This is mainly for CMJ, but I thought I'd share to everyone in general.

I'm watching the 12:01 show Wednesday night, then I go to work all day thursday, then after that, catch the 7:00 PM show at the same theater. The next day? I get on an early morning plane to go to Boston, MA for a friday night game between the Red Sox and the Braves at Fenway

I come home Saturday morning, in time to catch another ball game with our minor league team, the Birmingham Barons. Sunday, I go back to another showing of RotS.

How cool is that week gonna be?

[JMK]

So will you be going through that week with or without the aid of methamphetamines?

I like the Braves too. It's a win-win game for me, even if I'm pulling for the Sox more than Atlanta

[JMK]

Phew! Got my tix!

Midnight showing on the 18th at the Coliseum!

[Shawn]

Just bought my tickets for the midnight showing at Muvico Paradise

[Yog]

Got ticket for Colosseum thursday may 19 at 9.00 am local time, thats midnight + 3 hours EST in american clock, so I should see the film roughly the same time you guys do. Colosseum is the worlds largest THX certified theatre. The 978 seat theatre got a dome equal in size of that in St Peters church, a 70 mm projector with motion stabilisers and all kinds of technical wizardry for best possible experience. 22 x 9 meters silver screen, 20.000 watt 7 channel digital Dolby Surround EX system specifically designed by Dolby and THX for the Star Wars movies. If that wont do, nothing will

(in other words, I was too lazy to stand in a queue at 8 am this monday morning to get real midnight show tickets. Some loonies had been camping with tents outside Colosseum for 6 weeks to get the best seats for the midnight show.. this is what happened last time around - AOTC)

Wow Yog - that looks awesome!!! Have fun!
