RETURN OF THE KING - Can you wait?
...because i sure as hell can't!  This is one of the few movies that i haven't downloaded and watched before it came out, because it DESERVES to be watched on a big screen with theater sound...

I've got tickets to teh 12:01 AM show... on Wednesday morning... which means there's 33 hours left.  and i can't wait.

;)

This week is finals for my class. There's a girl that's seeing the FIRST showing here, at midnight. Not smart, to say the least. Wouldn't be suprised if she fails both exams that day...

Nah, I can wait.  I'll wait for a less busy time to see the movie.

[color=cc9900]I can wait, and am choosing not to. Can't be arsed to go and watch it, to be honest. It's only a spool of pictures. More fun to go outside and take photographs on a walk or something :)[/color]

Lesee... they're showing the first 2 here Wednesday afternoon / evening, with teh 3rd showing Wed/Thur midnight. But I'm not going to that showing. ;7

Instead, this Saturday, a bunch of friends of mine are getting together, We're borrowing an LCD projector, my brother's 4.1 Logitech Z-KickASS speakers, and the extended DVDs of the first 2 movies. After that mind-blowing experience, we all are going to catch #3 in theaters that evening. :)

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

I'm a bit scared of going in. I liked Fellowship but was annoyed by Towers. So this one will make or break the trilogy (God I hate calling it that)

Actually, best check to see it the cinehouse is having a trilogy day...

as evidenced by the unhealthy amount of ROTK threads I've posted in the last few days, no, I can't.

Oh, and DG, as much as I disagree with you on TT being annoying, I think you'll be happy to know, that Rotten Tomatoes gives ROTK a 100% fresh rating. It's 28 reviews in, and not one of them is rotten. That includes some of the biggest TT and FOTR bashers yet.

And even if it ain't all that (even though it will be all that), it still can't beat the level of crappiness that was Matrix Revolutions.

Here here Stu! :yes:

Matrix Revolutions was utter crap. And ROTK is getting some Über reviews. In the New York Post or something a critic just said that it can now take its place with Lawrence of Arabia, Gone with the Wind, and all the other great classics. Yep, I know I wont be dissapointed. :D

I'll wait till the frenzy is a bit over and I can enjoy the movie without the hooting, hollering, and massed crowds.

My contract with Cisco ended last friday and I'm not looking to get a job until January. Meanwhile, my wife is going to chuck a sicky and we're going on Thursday morning while most sane people are at work or in class.

yeah, well i prefer to go see it the first day or two, because you're with fans, fans who share the same anticipation as you, and there's a bad side of going to see the show a few days/weeks after it comes out:  You'll be disturbed by the kids and babies that start yelling and crying during the movie, whereas the first day or two it's only going to be fans, who will keep quiet during the good parts of the movie, and only yell/cheer at acceptable parts.

i dunno, it's all part of the fun going and standing in line :D

i think im going a week or two after it comes out with steak, if we ever get our acts together. he's going on a beach mission and i'll be out of sydney for christmas. it sounds majorly majorly cool. and yes, i agree, it'll be better than matrix revolutions, if only because most things would be. not that revolutions was that bad... just a bit of a let down... hopefully rotk won't be.

I'll just grab it illegally, in direct violation of both the DMCA and it's european couterpart whose acronym escapes me at this weary hour.

I've extended the "On TV" get-out to include things which will be shown on TV in the future.

I'm now only paying to see independant films.
