Metaphorically, we are all "waiting" in line for ROTS. This guy is just doing it literally.
As for little kids, I might sit up front for this movie. It eliminates dumbasses getting up and sitting down. However, it won't stop people behind you from making ass of themselves. 😠
I wish we were going with JP - we wouldn't be having that problem 🙂 pokey
I dont know whats worse, the kiddie problem or the Simpsons comic book guys who go. When we went to see TPM, the theatre was packed and my husband & I caouldnt find two seats together. So we asked this fat ass who was sitting alone would he mind moving down ONE row, and he's like 'I 've been waiting for thsi movie for years and I anit going nowhere!'......Like the rest of us just happened to 'stumble' across SW, 'Well, Leathal Weapon 14 is sold out, hey lets check out this Star Wars thing......'.........RIGHT. So the first time we went I had to sit next to that pompous idiot......
I live in Italy where people at the cinema are like savages in the Stone Age. Queues are inexistent, everybody passes on your f*****g face without even considering that you've been there all day long waiting while they've just arrived. And if you even complain about anything it's your fault. That's why I went to England to see TPM, unfortunately I couldn't do that for AOTC. On the other hand, the English have the nasty habit of putting their smelly feet up during the course of the entire film, it doesn't matter if there is someone in front: DISGUSTING!!!!!!. I wish I were related to the owner of a movie theatre :-(
When I went to see TPM everything went fine, whereas when I saw AOTC I suddenly felt like a serial killer: people overtaking, making nasty comments 'cause you had good seats, 7 ft tall blokes sitting in front of me, children screaming and munching away, people having tea-parties. Mind you, it was an "original sound" cinema (in Italy movies are dubbed), which means 95% were Americans plus the occasional Japanese and Brits. Isn't there a civil nation anymore?
I remember after the film ended I decided (risky!!!) to stay at the next screening as well: this woman wanted my seat so she snapped "What's the point of seeing a movie twice???" "It's STAR WARS, baby!!!"
I'm already nervous about ROTS, I'm planning sort of a military strategy.
it reminds a bit like that Mr. Bean episode:
Mr. Bean walks past a long queue outside Harrods. all the people are waiting for the famous january sales. he goes up to the very front of the line where we see what looks like someone in a sleeping bag with DO NOT DISTURB on it.
Mr. Bean opens the sleeping bag and inside is an inflatable doll ! he deflates it, packs up everyting and hey presto ! he's first in the line ! 😂
I was lucky enough to see the AOTC in the only digital cinema in my area, fantastic sound...The Works! and it was only a few weeks before they shut it down and moved it 🙁
The worst experience I ever had at a film was when I went to see the first LOTR film. There were 3 adults sat next to me.... and two of them were from turkey or somehwere. So what you say? Well The woman who appeared to be english, translated the whole ****ing movie for them as it went!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now as you can tell by the exclamation marks even thinking about this unhappy event makes me go psychotic! I do remember vaugley asking if they liked 'hospital food' but as most of them were foreign they didn't understand (the english woman ignored this weird psychoitic stranger individual that was me...)
Still at least it wasn't star wars 😄 Last time most people were dressed up as jedi and had lightsabers..😂 great stuff!

Ummm, I think a better question would be how many of us would rather live our lives rather than become a mockery of ourselves? I doubt my kids would find it respectable if I took off for the local cineplex to 'wait in line' rather than stay here & take care of them. May sound crazy, but its just a thought.
just leave the guy alone, why waste your time commenting on something that has no real affect on you and your Star Wars experience? He enjoys the wait, albeit a long one, but his own little thrill. This is the last Star Wars film, let eveyone enjoy it any way that makes him or her happy. Remember how you felt when you fell in love with these films, this is his way of holdng on to that.
midnight showing ...it eliminates the kids,
as for waiting in line for more than even 20 mins.... bah to hell with that.
The guy is an uber-geek with no motivation for anything or anybody else.
When he gets to see it, I hope he thinks Rots suxx , then goes home to his parents house with a length of rope . 😈
