TV premiere of ROTS theatrical trailer - 9 DAYS!!!

That's right. Next Thursday, sometime after 9:00 on FOX, the ROTS trailer will premiere (over 2 minutes long!). Then around midnight the trailer will be available for viewing for HS members. Finally, it will debut in theaters Friday, March 11 attached to the animate movie "Robots".

 

I can't wait for the trailer, but I hear that Fox was going to be playing it sometime during The OC.

ROTS trailer on Fox Network 6 days!!!!


If you haven't ordered your CIII badges by the end of today and you order after today they won't ship them to your house.

Otherwise it will be picking them up at Indy!!!

 

Yeah, I ended up ordering my badge at 11:00 last night because I misread the C3 site and thought the ship to option would be unavailable if I waited until today. I also ordered the Vader antenna topper

Did anyone see the ROTS promo last night on FOX? I was flipping the channels around 8:15 or so and came across it. It was basically a commercial plugging the trailer that will air next week. There was about 7-10 seconds maybe of footage. I got so excited I dang near wet myself

As for the toys, be on the lookout at your local Target. All of the area ones have clearanced all of the non-ROTS out and are starting to put tags for the new merchandise out. I've also heard reports that Targets across the country are already putting the first wavee of figures and vehicles on the shelves. So keep looking, there's a pretty good chance we may not have to wait until April 2!

 

The trailer can't come soon enough!!!

Hey I talked to one of the managers at the Loews Boston Common this morning she was telling me that the charity showing of ROTS will be May 12th, 2005.
She said the cost would be around $250.00 !!!

I know that it goes to charity but that is a little too rich for my blood.

Also they are having a showing of "Robots" today at or around 11:30 she said but it might be by invite only.

She wasn't sure if the ROTS trailer was going to be shown or not with this screening of "Robots".

I could of went but I just got out of work at 8:00 this morning and I needed to get some sleep.

 

I read somewhere (it may have been the TF.N homepage) that the ROTS trailer would NOT be attached to any early screenings of Robots. The word is the trailer won't actually be attached to Robots until the Thursday evening before Robots opens.
