EPIII and the Midnight Showing

[Jakedubbleya]

This is the number of the so-called "Star Wars Hotline."

It's actually a pay phone outside of a movie theatre on Hollywood Blvd. in L.A., where Star Wars nerds are already camped out in line waiting for the upcoming movie.

1-323-462-9609

(Expect a busy signal sometimes...keep trying though, you'll get through.)

lol

You know the funny thing is... they are lining up at the wrong theater.

'Star Wars' Fans Line Up at Wrong Theater a few blocks away.http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,152670,00.html

from the Associated Press

Star Wars fanatics line up at wrong theater for May debutinstead to open the film a mile away at the ArcLight 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.

Fox and the ArcLight haven't completed their Star Wars deal, but executives on both sides told Daily Variety Revenge of the Sith will play at the ArcLight, not the Chinese.

Yet Sprague was adamant the line wouldn't be moving to the ArcLight.

"This is still the epicenter for Star Wars fans. For the big iconic pictures of the 1970s, people lining up were here. They weren't at the Cinerama Dome (at the ArcLight)," Sprague said.

Lucas' final Star Wars chapter spells out the last dark steps the once goodhearted young Anakin Skywalker takes to become the villain Darth Vader.

well, after about 40 minutes of calling a busy signal, we just gave up.

how very lame and dissapointing it was....

that insult comic dog link is awesome lol.

[Jack & Coke]

STAR WARS nerds know how to have fun too!

[wanna-b-ballin']

"Triumph the insult comic dog"

does anyone know when and where that was filmed? cuz i think i saw someone that was in my class a few years ago. the guy thats talking 5minutes 42 seconds into the video.

[thecavemankevin]

probably in new york where conan is filmed

[nt2004]

The theater I work at has already sold roughly 2200 tickets for the midnight screening

I may also work that night for fun although its out of my availability

It going to royally suck for me when it comes out. I'm at the bottom of the ladder here, I'll probably be serving concessions to thousands of star wars fans all night long

[bam wannabe]

yeah, i too am going to the midnight showing. i doubt this will be better than ESB though.

i'll probably see it 2-3 days before it comes out ....

you know , us managers get to build the movies and screen them when they are delivered to us.

i officially hate you.

[NJPaint]

Already seen it , but yes, I will be at one of the midnight premeres in NYC. Yes, I am a Star Wars geek and proudly so.
