ZOE: Now we have a boatful of citizens right on top of our... stolen cargo. That's a fun mix.
MAL: Ain't no way in the 'verse they could find that compartment, even--Even if they were lookin' for it.
ZOE: Why not?
MAL: 'Cause... ?
ZOE: Oh yeah, this is gonna go great.
MAL: If anyone gets nosy, just, you know...shoot 'em.
ZOE: Shoot 'em?
MAL: Politely.

The reason I'm pursuing The Rialto (and as an alternate, Mission Valley) is because I'm friends with the owner of Ambassador Entertainment (who also owns the Lumina, I realize), and he's assured me that we would be able to make this an event, including costume contests and other such things. That's really my motivation for suggesting The Rialto.
Oh, sure. However, if for some reason things aren't working out with his theatres, there's an excellent, fan-friendly alternative in the Triangle.

Bill has also suggested the Lumina as a possible Venue, and there's not a bad chance it will run there in Chapel Hill anyhoo.
On the one hand, the Lumina is a much nicer theatre than Mission Valley. On the other hand, Mission Valley serves beer.

Do me a favor, if you would. . .in case 'Versal doesn't approve The Rialto as a Venue. . .could you track some info on what hotels and resturants are close to the Lumina, in the event of us moving the Official Raleigh-Durham area Big Damn Premiere Party there instead?
The Lumina is just outside Chapel Hill, where there's plenty of lodging along 15-501 minutes away from the theatre. Likewise, there's an abundance of restaurants available.

Coming back from a night of dancing and debauchery with MoonMagick (*warning ... tangent ahead* What is it with kids nowawdays that they don't dance? They just stand on the dance floor looking at us old chicks like we're frelling nutters? *back to the our regularly scheduled debauchery*)
Anyway, I told her about this event and about the Browncoat Ball in Chicago this September. We regret that neither of us will be able to make the premier Shindig, but we're going to attempt to haul her daughters (both fervent Browncoats) to the ball.
If you see a gorgeous 12 year old dressed as Kaylee, that would be daughter number 2. I'm going to starve myself so that I can fit into my best Companiony outfit.

This sounds really cool...and it's good planning has started now, Static, since this is bound to turn into a huge shindig.
I'm interested (and I'd have to fly in, too) and as more info develops I'll keep an eye out.
Wish it were closer, but the theatre looks cool. Also, it sucks always going to culty-sci-fi-ish films always by myself! I wanna go with a huge group!
Another thought: I'm guessing this shindig would become a whole weekend event? With this many people interested it will have to be all weekend long!

I'm just imagining the press this would stir up. A non-starwars movie party. A group of rabid fans organizes their own premier. Fans from all over descend on NC. it could be really cool.
Somewhere in my weird little brain, I keep hoping that we could arrange some kind of early showing just for us browncoats. Then we would be sent home to spread the word for opening day.

Alrighty then,
Whereever you have it I'm game. I didn't realize so many of the browncoats here are in NC. I'm in Charlotte and could drive a couple of people up. If you need a ride once details are confirmed. Only concern so far is it looks like we'll fill this place up in a NY minute. Is there only one screen? Multiple screens? If you get a place with multiple screens can you get multiple copies of the film and show it simutaeously?

I posted a refly on the 'Versal board, but thought I would just come on over here and post too. I live in SW VA and would really love to make it to a Browncoat function for the premier, so I'm down with whatever y'all come up with. I think it's about a 3 1/2 to 4 hour drive for me.

Static,
Not sure how far you've gotten in locating a Universal contact. I made some calls to Universal Pictures and have located the sales manager for your region (name, phone number, extension). Send me an e-mail and I'll forward that information to you. nostrakenus at yahoo com
