Yippeeee I got my tickets and its only 16 days to go.

Anybody else going to this in Leicester Square...who do you think the special guests will be and what do you think the day will have in store for the ticket holders.

As the saga is the main event organised by Mr Lucas I cant see it being literally sitting in the cinema all day,watching the films, seeing Episode 3 and then "thank you very much...now bugger off"

I think some people are getting too excited about what the Galactic Passport entitles you too...rumours are flying that,once you have it stamped, you will actually get into the official premiere in a fans section. This does sound totally crazy...but I suppose it would explain WHY you have to have all 5 films stamped to see Episode 3 even though you have the ticket.

Theres a lot of bullshit flying around on ebay to make the tickets sell...and boy are they selling...1000% profit in some places.

Still, it will be a great day even if the tubes dont start running until just before they recommend you get there.

Im in NYC, though-- where's Leicester Square?

I'm just going to the local theater in town, here. 12:05am showing on the 19th.

WHHHOOOAAAHHH THERE - I hope those 2 comments were seperate - Natalie is indeed fine and is great in Leon....but I wouldnt say that she was fine in Leon...cute maybe...but not fine!!!! Unless of course you are in your early teens too....then go ahead.

thesexofit said:

And I still remember her in Closer.

Except for that haircut.

purpledoveuk said:

ha. No I do not think she is fine in "leon". I can see the misunderstanding though. Though when I saw it as an early teen I thought she was fine. If u see what I mean (I first saw leon when I was around 12-13 I think?)


She was great in that film.

I masturbate at night and think of Star Wars.

Who u think of?

thesexofit said:

Darth Vader, hell yeah.

Funnily enough Natalie Portman in Leon was voted one of the sexiest characters on film...they just ran teh comment

"For all of you who voted Natalie Portmans Matilda as sexiest character, shame on you and for those who didnt.....you know you wanted to!!!"

purpledoveuk said:

Was this on a peodo's site

Nah just kidding. I gotta see the film again, but I do remember her being very good in it, as her age looked genuine (in other words she was the actual age she portrayed)

I hope u c some revealing stuff of her in the next star wars.

It was in Total Film Magazine


Yeah I have to admit Im hoping for a Gold Bikini moment or a wardrobe malfunction during Episode 3

Back to the original post, I just found this on theforce.net:

Lucasfilm UK Star Wars Marathon Warning
Posted By Britany on May 3, 2005

If you were lucky enough to purchase tickets for the Star Wars marathon at the Empire Leicester Square, and you're REALLY looking forward to seeing 'Revenge of the Sith' on May 16th, please read the following info we received from Lucasfilm VERY carefully:

The "Galactic Passport" that the lucky fans purchased contain posters of each film and an area in which the Passport will be stamped after each screening. The end-of-day screening of "Revenge of the Sith" is reserved for those fantastic fans who have stamps next to all five movies. We want to ensure that the vast majority of the fans who purchased their Galactic Passports with the intent of seeing the saga all the way through (for the first time in the world) will not have their efforts and achievement spoiled by people who think they can just show up in the evening to see "Revenge of the Sith."

This is a first-time-ever "saga marathon," and we hope everyone who attends is excited to see ALL six movies. "Revenge of the Sith" on May 16 will be reserved for those special fans who attend the entire marathon.

We also advise you to read the warning from UCI if you were thinking of buying Galactic Passports from eBay.
