	Anyone see the trailer for this? I can't wait, not the least of reasons being that some of my fellow 501st members are in it. Set in 1998, the story tells of a group of friends who, anxious for the premiere of Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace, decide to break into Skywalker Ranch and steal an early print of the film. The reason: One of them is suffering from cancer and wishes to see the film before his death. A road trip begins as the friends encounter William Shatner, obsessed Trekkies, and bikers who make them undress for water.[1] There's a lot of drama over this, because there was some talk about this being stripped of the cancer plot. ANd, they have finally announced a release date: September 19th.

	Yep, she's in this. The2ndQuest posted: JediTrilobite posted: There's a lot of drama over this, because there was some talk about this being stripped of the cancer plot.

Yeah, it appears that's what they've done, which is a very good thing, and it's making a lot of people in the 501st happy. -----signature----- Ever wonder what happened during the clone wars?

	There's been a lot of negative buzz about this film...not that I would pay attention to that, anyway.

	I think that's mainly because of the stripping of the Cancer plot, which is what they wanted to go to, but that has since been restored. -----signature----- Ever wonder what happened during the clone wars?

	Hey, any publicity is good publicity. I think it's going to be even MORE of a success than before because of the outcry -----signature----- Jacen and the two Vergeres http://gmgeldar.wordpress.com/vergere-essay/ Now, if you don't mind, I am somewhat preoccoupied telling the laws of physics to shut up and sit down.

	September's nearly as bad a release date as August.

	It depends, actually. The first half of August is usually solid. Third week can be iffy and 4th week is niche. September in general is usually even weaker, except for the 3rd or 4th week when you have occasional movies that try to replicate Rush Hour's success in that slot. -----signature----- "When your future self tells you to do something, YOU DO IT."
