Marc B. Wrote:You're correct, sir. Upon closer examination this is the case. Very strange considering that Star Wars has always opened on a Wed. This Thurs. stuff is throwing me off. *sigh*That struck me as odd when I realized it also. Usually it opens on a Wed. with late, late, late Tues screenings (early Wed.). But this year is different. I never liked that they started showing movies early on a Wed. anyway.

I have my ticket to see it at 12:01 am on the 19th. Going to the theater on the 18th, though.
I'm seeing it on the ULTRASCREEN at the Elgin Fox Theatre. The same place Jim and I saw Hitchhiker's Guide.

I'm seeing starwars Friday morning at 12:03 am at a theater that not only spent the money to put in a sound system that George Lucas specifically designed for Star Wars, but George Lucas himself came by to test it. (Rumor as far as him visiting, but you believe what you want to. *grin*)

Marc B. Wrote:Okay... there seems to be a discrepancy with the release date of Episode 3. The "official" release date is Thursday, May 19 but a lot of theaters have a showing on Wednesday, May 18 at 12:01 a.m. which insinuates that the release is May 18.
Anyone know what's going on here? Are they just doing a one-time screening a day before or are the release dates messed up?
My ticket says Wed the 18th at 12:01am. One of my friends called me and he seems to think that this refers to midnight at the end of Wed, but I think he is wrong. I am going to the theater tomorrow to find out for sure. I don't remember any movie ever opening on a Thurs, but several 'big' films have opened on Wed in the past and I'm hoping this is the case here because I have got to work on Wed night.

Well I've got tickets to a charity screening in London on the 17th, 7pm (that's London time 
).
I see the film early and help the abused kiddies (based on spoilers I've heard there is a certain irony here).
Hehehe. I shall try and post a non spoiler review for you late comers.

PS after the last two, not sure if this is actually worth gloating over, but you brought it up.

Everything seems to point to Wed. night/Thurs. morning at 12:01 a.m. It's really kind of sad the theaters are messing this up.

Dave, I have nothing to say about Star Wars, but I love your new avatar. Do tell, who is she?
