Alrighty then, who is up for a bit of healthy Star Wars related masochism in London?

Ok, people. I know I am in a minority (of one?) here, but I want to see Attack Of The Clones when it comes out... I saw the first bus-stop advertising posters today, and they're campy as hell, so maybe it'll be worth seeing after all (piss-takey in an 'Star Trek: Enterprise' kind of way. Or not. Ok, ok, so it'll probably be shite. But I want to see it, and I'm not getting into the whys and wherefores again, for which I trust you are all suitably grateful). It comes out on the 16th of May, which is the day after I finish my exams, and I'll be in the mood for a bit of celebratory masochism. So, who's with me???

Seeing it on the 16th at the Odeon Leicester Sq (w/ friendlyboy, twart, hindermate and glassonion) - got tickets booked and everything. If I were you I'd hurry up and book (got our tickets 2 weeks ago) t'otherwise you'll never get a seat.

We will geek and then we will be mature and cuss.

13:56 / 30.04.02

Hell, yes...
(and thanks for the reminder to hurry).

yay i'm up for this

that

14:11 / 30.04.02

Cool, cool! When, where? Runce, do you fancy opening the doors of your Barbemeet to all and sundry?

14:32 / 30.04.02

I wouldn't mind at all - but will have to consult w/ the rest of 'em (you never know which way the famously annoying, but supersexy Twart is gonna turn). I'll PM you when I know more, but, for now....I'll be the one wearing Yoda ears.

Only not. Ever.

you never know which way the famously annoying, but supersexy Twart is gonna turn

Into a King Kong wuss at the sight of the less-than-threatening Flyboy?

Sad motherfucker that I am, I also have booked my ticket for the 16th... 11:35 (pm) showing. And, sad motherfucker that I am, I am counting the days... no, the SECONDS.

that

15:24 / 30.04.02

Halle-fucking-lujah, I am not alone! *weeping with gratitude*.
Guess if tickets are still gettable for the 16th, we might be able to get some sort of Barbelith thing going, either with Runce, if the famous Twart is amenable, or with Chairman M., if that'd be cool? Stoatie? sleaze?

sleazenation

16:20 / 30.04.02

I'm easy - especially if someone else organises/books the tickets and i just have to turn up and pay...

that

17:03 / 30.04.02

I could book tickets, quite happily. The 11:35 showing might be kind of late for me, as far as trains go, though there are always night buses... I'll call round a few London cinemas, see if there are still tickets left for an earlier evening showing? Anyone else want to come?

mondo a-go-go

09:21 / 01.05.02

uh...count me in.

chol, we have a futon you can crash on if no one else is staying on it at the time.

though night buses DO go ALL THE WAY HOME NOW! (sorry for shouting, but i'm thrilled about that!)

that

10:37 / 01.05.02

I reckon I can do the night bus thing - it's not like I have to get up for school or anything (hooray!). So, do people wanna go for the late showing? Stoatie, where are you at, and can we (in theory) come?

The Natural Way

11:01 / 01.05.02

Get the feeling that you guys'll never get a ticket for the 11:30 am performance, tho'.

I thought we were gonna try for PM but like you say- tis likely fully booked

that

11:42 / 01.05.02

PM it was... but yes, tickets are probably hard to come by. Fuck me, I am disorganised. And I got my exam questions today and they are sick-makingly difficult for someone of my limited brain power. But I can look for availability, if people don't much care which cinema, or when, within reason... I'll get back to you in a sec, people...

that

11:46 / 01.05.02

Ok, people - they appear to still have tickets for the 10.20am, 1.40pm, 5 pm, 8.20pm and 11.35 pm showings available at the Odeon in Leicester Sq. Preferences?

sleazenation

12:02 / 01.05.02

I'd prefer 8:20 or 11:30 pm myself - may like star wars, but don't want to miss work for it...

that

12:09 / 01.05.02

Ha - you're a lightweight! Ok - three tickets for 8.20 or 11.35 then...

that

12:25 / 01.05.02

Fucksake. Their booking line is the worst thing ever... I will have to call again and talk to a real live person...

that

12:32 / 01.05.02

ok - kooky and sleaze, I've booked tickets for the 11.35 showing on Thursday the 16th... hope that's cool...

sleazenation

12:42 / 01.05.02

yay!

that

13:07 / 01.05.02

Yay indeed! (Or, as 'woo!' is now the new 'yay!' - Woo!)

sleazenation

13:25 / 01.05.02

i thought it was "woot!" but i'm sticking with my old fashioned yay!

mondo a-go-go

13:42 / 01.05.02

coolio :]

that

12:44 / 13.05.02

So - I have to pick up the tickets from the machine beforehand, which I can do without anyone holding my hand - but y'all are gonna need your tickets, so, do you wanna meet up 11.25-ish at the entrance? The seats are specifically booked, so there's no hurry to get in...but I guess a bit earlier might be a good idea if anyone wants popcorn and/or related items.

that

13:14 / 13.05.02

Oh, and Stoatie, wave if you see us... I'll be the one screaming obscenities at the screen, and then weeping uncontrollably... or not.

Already seeing it for a friend's birthday. Which neatly sidesteps the issue of whether I want to see it and can be blamed for my poor taste/crazy optimism or not, as it's his choice of film. Ha.

STOATIE LIEKS CHOCOLATE MILK

17:05 / 13.05.02

Yay! I'll be big with the wave-age. (Jesus, that "sounded" stupid, but hey, I'm pissed.)
Star Wars-a-go-go!!!
THREE FUCKING DAYS!!! (Possibly this is what Jane's Addiction had in mind, but I doubt it.)
I'll be the guy with the dumb-ass Coil logo on the back of his jacket, and the "really should have taken more time over it" hair.

STOATIE LIEKS CHOCOLATE MILK

22:53 / 13.05.02

Just realised, y'all know what I look like already. I'll look like that, only more excited and 6-year-old-ish.

mondo a-go-go

09:01 / 16.05.02

hey hey hey. meet tonight, yes?

listen, i am going to be in the bull & mouth pub in bloomsbury way from about 9pm. want to meet me in there and we can walk down to the cinema together?

STOATIE LIEKS CHOCOLATE MILK

09:14 / 16.05.02

I gotta meet some people in Chiquito's some time after 10:30, but Chiquitos sucks, is expensive, and last time I went they didn't let me in, so if I can get into town earlier... where is this Bull & Mouth of which you speak?

mondo a-go-go

10:17 / 16.05.02

in bloomsbury way, as said in the post. where the red circle is.
