    I sure as hell will be. It's the best theater out there.

    I'm hoping to get in to the UltraMax screen of the West Town theater in Waukesha.

    I'll be there! Mayfair is the closest to me anyway, but West Town sounds cool too! Wherever I can meet more people, that's where I'm gonna go.

    Twisty,
    That's where I went for EP.1, it was just plain insanity and it was the best time of my life.

    OK, wait a sec... Are you guys talking about the General Cinema theater in Mayfair Mall? I've been there, and I always thought that theater sucked. Am I missing something?

    Yup! The General Cinema at Mayfair Mall! I don't mind it, it's a little pricey, but it's still really cool. Plus, the SW games in the lobby are fun to pass the time with. ^_~ I was there when Mark Hamill was promoting his movie "Walking Across Egypt", it was crazy, but I met a lot of cool Star Wars fans there!

    But I just don't know if I'll go...depends on if they have a midnight showing or not! If they don't, West Town here I come!

    MTFBWY!

    Well, I've never been to the Premium theater at Mayfair, but they're gonna close it (Not bringing in enough $$$ I guess) so it doesn't matter. Like they'd ever show Ep II there anyway!

    I've made my decision: If Mayfair won't be open for the midnight showing, then it's West Town.

    Anyone got an idea if it'd open on a Friday or a Saturday? Skipping school for opening day is an option for me...

    I'm guessing that the premiere will be organized just like that of TPM: the film will start at the stroke of midnight on the morning of release day. That means you have to prepare for it the day before release day, technically. Or you can do it like I did and show up spontaneously 2 hours before showtime just because your car breaks down close to the theater. :)

    Okay, I just talked with the manager at the Mayfair theater, and he says that the deluxe theater is STILL SHOWING MOVIES, but the restaurant portion is closed. So I guess the theater you go to for Ep. II depends largely on what features you favor: leather seats at Mayfair, or the biggest screen in Wisconsin at West Town.

    If I can't get anywhere else, I'll be at Mayfair because of it's close proximity to my house. However, I saw Ep. I there and hated the theater. The popcorn was horrible, the sound was pathetic, and everything was too pricey. However, the seats WERE comfy and the games were cool. I'll probably go there to see the Ep. II trailers.
