Hey Sithman!

EPII would most definitely be on one of those huge screens. If they showed Cast Away there, they'd have to show SW on one of those screens.

 

RHammer86,

I went to Fremd! I graduated about ## years ago (I ain't sayin' how long ago!)

BTW, I vote for:
***********************
AMC Barrington 30
***********************
for EPII. Especially if they use the digital projection screen!

 

K, that's 2 votes for AMC Barrington 30 for Episode II!

P.S. Jedilori, RHammer lives right down the street from me. :-D

Well depending on when/where, I vote for the AMC as well. Not that Cantera thing, the one in south Barrington. My friends and I go there a lot for movies and I could definitely see a line being quite successful there...

plus there's a Steak 'n Shake down the road...

mmmm.... milkshakes...

matt maul.

 

I smell a NW suburban SW party around EPII time!

 

Heh, yup. BTW, since i'm only a frosh in high school, i won't be able to get out of school for weeks before to line up... although maybe we can all make a mad dash out there the morning tickets go on sale. I read about people doing that at the AMC for Episode 1 two years ago. (by "doing that" i mean not lining up and just going out at 8 AM the morning they went on sale and waiting for a couple hours to get them). Er, how does THAT sound?

Thom from Mt. Prospect here, right close to the Arlington Heights border... First saw TPM at AMC 30 SB, like so many others, and would go to see Ep2 there as well....

If anyone wants to visit me, I work Saturday nights (most of them, at least) at the Barnes & Noble in Schaumburg, slinging lattes in the cafe. Maybe I'll change my nametag to Wuher and see if anyone notices. ::chuckle:: Speaking of Fremd HS, they just had a bookfair at that B&N last Saturday, to support their Writers' Week... but I digress.

So, when are they installing the droid detector in the cafe?

You see some Trekkie walk in...

"Hey! We don't like your kind in here, you'll have to leave!"

Any other votes for the theater?
