    Well, I maybe coming, if I do not have baby sitting problems again, like on Saturday! I need directions from Ft.Worth. I know Dallas pretty well. And If anyone needs a ride from FTW than post and let me know!
    Am I the only one who lives in FTW?
    old-master has spoken?

    It's easy, from Ft. Worth, get to N. Central expressway, the best way you can, and head north to Plano.

    Go all the way through Plano till almost the last exit and take Legacy. Head west, (take a left) and then a right after the Roadrunner Gas station. Its right there in front of ya.

    More specific? I can get a map from Yahoo...

    If you really want to come, I HIGHLY recommend getting your ticket online at Fandango NOW, or going to the theater ASAP to get your ticket.

    I was up there yesterday, and asked how many seats they had left, and there were about 150. And in an auditorium that's easily 3-400 seats, that's not many. I have a feeling that by the time Friday rolls around, it's going to be too late if you don't already have your ticket.

    Melanie,

    You may want to call that Loews Theater before you go there to see Harry Potter, if you want to see the new Episode 2 trailer. TF.N has released several reports that the Loews chain has been blacklisted by Lucasfilm and Fox for violating certain restrictions with TPM. Therefore, it seems that NONE of the Loews Theaters are receiving prints of the "Black Eyes" trailer.

    Just FYI. I know I'd sure hate it if I went to see Harry Potter (even though I'm really looking foward to the film itself) but didn't get to see the new Star Wars trailer!

    Yeah, I'm not sure what's going on with the trailer. They're saying now that it's only going to be on one or two prints for theaters that are showing it. Crazy. But there is a bit of a bright side. Supposedly the trailer will be available for download later today on starwars.com. Everyone, not just people with the DVD, will be able to get this one.

    As far as when we're going to get there, I will be there starting around 9pm tomorrow evening. I highly recommend everyone else do the same, so we can get good places in line.

    Ugh, things are getting even more complicated with this trailer:

    http://www.theforce.net/episode2/index.html#13140

    Seems that AMC Theaters are putting the new EP2 trailer with "The One" rather than "Harry Potter", at WB's request. The thing of it is... if WB is requesting that theaters do this, then it could affect more than just the AMC Theaters chain.

    oh well, if i don't get to see the sw trailer it's no big deal even though i will be a little disappointed, but i can find it online and see it....frankly i just want to see the harry potter movie, *high pitched squeak*, i'm so excited...most people would agree that i'm too excited and over reacting, but hey, oh well, i'll just be the exact same way next may too for star wars.

    Ed Draganski here....After driving to Legacy to get tickets for Harry Potter, I was told they made a corporate descision not to show the trailer tomorrow. Then I called some other theaters in attempt to reach a human voice. I was given many excuses: Loews said "no trailer", UA said they had no idea/no comment, Another theater even told me it was already running with Monsters, Inc and still one more told me it wouldn't be out for 2 more weeks! I finally called AMC Mesquite. I got a friendly woman who made time to ask the projectionist. She assured me The new Trailer would be running with EVERY print of Harry Potter. So if you like the AMC in Mesquite, you should be able to see both in one sitting.

    Brandon, you may have the tickets, but the question remains....



    Is it safe?

    And no new Ep. II Trailer? Heard on the radio today that it was to be there, plus NINE OTHERS. No exaggeration.

    I agree with Jeff. A scapegoat must be found, lest we turn on each other. Unless we have any other volunteers, Brandon is our Harry Potter scapegoat. IHMO Brandon should be hunted down, drawn and quartered, and his carcass should be dragged throughout Plano(or Richardson whichever is closest). That or be the victim of an Atomic Wedgie.

    Hey folks, I didn't make up the rules of scapegoatness, I'm just following them. I don't want you all to think I some sort of evil and twisted person. Heck I feel sorry for Brandon too. I'm sure I'll feel a small twinge of sadness when I'm hauling his lifeless corpse behind his own car in Plano or Richardson(whichever is closest), but what's a person to do?

    Oh and Brandon I'll see you in Plano [face_devil]

    This just in from DarkHorizons:

    Star Wars: Episode II (Scoop #2): Regal has a limited showing of it, AMC isn't putting it up, now it seems General Cinemas won't put the trailer above with "Harry Potter" either according to 'JMD': "I work for General Cinemas, and I can tell you that we received several prints of the final Episode II trailer two days ago, and we were told (by corporate headquarters) to NOT PLACE THE TRAILER with "Harry Potter". Right now, the copies are all sitting in our vault. General Cinema has posted a notice on their box office windows saying that they "hope to show it in about a month." My boss seems to think he'll be told to attach it to LOTR. The reason for holding the trailer was not given, but we believe it was to minimize pandaemonium around "Harry Potter"". Indeed, the explanation seems to lie in a recent e-mail from AMC: "Thank you for contacting AMC Theatres. The decision was made by Warner Brother not to cross promote "Episode 2" trailer with "Harry Potter". It will be a trailer however for "The One". I can understand your concern and apologize for the confusion. We appreciate your interest in AMC".
