The Incredibles! SMT at Opening Night!

OK everybody, the Malco website has Friday's showtimes up.

We have The Incredibles showing on three screens at the Cordova - 5, 6:35, 7, 7:40.

I'm assuming we are going for the 7:00 showing, but let's all confirm this before anyone runs out and buys tickets early.
(Won't be able to get there to get mine until tomorrow anyway.)

Well, running time is 1:55, so 7 it is, right?

Yes, we're going to the 7:00 pm showing at Malco Cordova.

I'm kinda shocked to see it has that long of a running time. That seems longer than the previous Pixar films.

Lori, I didn't get a copy of it, but Lin is ordering a few copies and I'm buying him a bite to eat for it. Rhonda, thanks for putting the one extra reservation in! Glad you got the psychotic ESPN ability! Jacob, once you explained what LDS stood for, it makes sense to me and I can't believe I didn't make a connection before that!!! At any rate, with the restrictions I'm glad I'm a Baptist! HA!!

Back on the subject of Pixar and The Incredibles, Karen Prell and her husband Mike Quinn work at Pixar some. Karen Prell is famous for performing Red Fraggle on Fraggle Rock, and Mike is famous as puppeteering Nien Nunb in ROTJ among other Jim Henson productions. Kind of neat how all this blends in together, huh?

At any rate, with the restrictions I'm glad I'm a Baptist! HA!!

That's funny, Kevin, I thought the Baptists had basically the same rules. A lot of them just choose to ignore them.

I just bought my tickets for the showing at 7. Geez, movie tickets are getting expensive!

Oh crap did I need to pre pay tickets? Do I need to? IS THERE STILL TIME???

Just get there early enough to make sure you can get a ticket to the 7 pm showing, Nick. If you wait too close to showtime then you'll probably be out of luck with it being opening weekend.

Ok, so exactly where is the Malco Cordova, and can we order tickets on-line?

Cordova Cinema
1080 Germantown Parkway
Memphis, TN 38018
901-309-8550

Online tickets available at malco.com or directly
here if that link works.

Be warned that eveing tickets are now up to $8 and they charge an online ordering fee of $1.

Also, Gina has come down with a cold, it looks like. We're not going ot the Bravo showing of Peter Pan at the Playhouse on the Square tonite, and if she's not feeling better tomorrow, we probably won't be able to make it ot The Incredibles. Rhonda, if you need to give up our reservations, feel free - if we do make it, we can skip dinner. I don't want to cause any hassle for the restaurant on a Friday night.

Sorry,
-Joe

Malco Cordova is on G-Town Pkwy on the corner of Macon, behind Walgreens, across Macon from O'Charley's and the new frozen custard place.

You can buy tickets online, for a 1 dollar service fee here.

I would offer to pick up tickets for anyone since I live so close, but I won't be going home until late tonight. If you want me to pick up your tickets in the morning, I would be glad to do that for anyone--PM me with your phone number so we can work out specifics.

Who's going to go real early and reserve a good place in line for seats? I hope we can all sit together and that it will be somewhere in the middle of the theatre--that's what I prefer--or are there backrow people going?

I will go early if my wife is willing to take care of the babysitter and stuff, but I would love to have someone come keep me company. How early do we need to go to insure good seats--I've never been to an opening night in this town.

Looks like we doubled up on info. Why didn't our links work?

Joe, I hope Gina feels better and that we will see y'all tomorrow night.

How many people are going?? I can help reserve seats. I have nothing to do anyway. Plus, I think I'll show up early and get my tickets. I don't want to pay an extra dollar for ordering them. That's a stupid fee. Movie theaters are crazy. They charge for the dumbest things.

How early were you thinking, Lori?

ok I guess Ill go at 6:15 cause Ittll take a while to get there from midtown. Are you all going in costume?

Probably between 6:15 and 6:30 at least. Do you think that will be early enough?? It's not like I do anything during the day so if I need to be there earlier, it would be no problem.

Sure. Wear a costume to The Incredibles.

I'll be a couple of rows away pretending I don't know you.




I think wearing costumes to a non-SW movie would be a bit much.

And it might get you beaten up.




By your friends.

I'm sure my response will be a bit more crass, but just as enthusiastic!

I'll be a couple of rows away pretending I don't know you.

What if it's me in the Leia slave costume????

Well, that's different. But if you're dressed as any other Star Wars character...

Lol. That's what I thought.

Unfortunetly, I don't have that costume yet.

Probably between 6:15 and 6:30 at least. Do you think that will be early enough?? It's not like I do anything during the day so if I need to be there earlier, it would be no problem
Like I said before--I don't know how things like this are around here.
They said they would start seating around 6:45.
In your experience is there usually a huge line?
When we went to HP this summer in Little Rock the line was pretty long, but we stlll got decent seats for seven people. How many are we. My group keeps expanding. I am still at 3 for dinner, but up to 5-6 or possibly 9-12 for the movie.

Ok ok, its not like I was sayin I was goin as a friggin jawa. I dont even have a costume yet. But I dont mind waiting a while as long as I get the tickets.Im sure every mom and child are going to be there, NOOOOOOO!

I would expect that the 7 pm show would sell out, but I'm pretty confident that you'd be OK if you got your tickets before 6:30, you'd be fine.

I think 6:30 is a good enough time to be up there for this movie. We can get into the theater and block off an entire row if we have to.
