AOTC at Seattle's Cinerama Dome
Tue, Apr 16, 02 12:30:13 AM EDT

Looks like the force was with the 2 Seattle lineup guys as they took a chance lining up at Seattle's Cinerama movie theatre anticipating the premiere of Episode II. From John Guth of SeattleStarWars.com:

Well, it's for sure. Star Wars EPISODE II will be opening at the Seattle Cinerama movie theatre on May 16th. Movie times will be released soon.

It will open on a regular 35mm print and then a couple of weeks later it will be presented on an all new digital projection system unlike any other in the country.

I will know later this week when tickets will be going on sale and on what medium they will be available, so keep posted.

I've only caught the Indian Jones Trilogy and ET. Tried to see LOTR, but the line was a few blocks long, and that was for a show three shows later that day. Walked to Pacific Place instead and saw it. Went deaf too.

I saw the first and third Indy movies.

Mmmmm... Indy.

Re:

I wanted to skip the second one, but to be complete, I saw it. However, I don't own that one on LaserDisc, just the first and third (or should I say second and third because cronologically, TOD is first.)

I miss Indy movies. We all need more movies like that.

LaserDisc! eee! We bought one of those in Japan. My parents still have it. It was one of the ones that played both sides without flipping.

Yeah. We need more like that. Yeah.

Mine plays both sides too. Sometimes it doesn't work (like sometimes it doesn't open) but it's the only way to watch Star Wars without settling for VHS.

*nods* I generally agree. I wish I still had mine, but it died.

I was looking into getting a new one a while back, mainly one that had a Dolby Digital out. I decied against it because I really had no reason to have one. The majority of my LD have been converted to DVD. And even most of those, I'll keep the LD version because of missing stuff, and you don't need Dolby Digital for the two hour Jaws documentary.

Or do you . . .

Hrmmmmm... *ponders*

Re:

must not buy new player just because . . .
if we buy anything, new receiver so we hook up xBox through the digital in . . .

Re:

*nods* There you go. See? There is a reason.

BTW, who is in the drawings flickering by?

Re:

They are the Dames from Sin City, a wonderful Frank Miller comic series from Dark Horse. DH did a series of prints, first B&W then finally color, and those are the thumbnails from that series. Wanted to try and make an animated icon, and what better subjects than women from Sin City?

Re:

Aaaahhhhhh! That would be why they were familiar enough to grab my attention but not familiar enough to identify. Gratze.
