Battlestar Galactic - Razor - Advanced Screening
We registered a few weeks ago... One little form and you're in. Free ticket, sponsored by Microsoft~
Robert picked me up after work and headed out to Huntington Beach. The freeway was surprisingly uncrowded.
We got to the theater... also surprisingly uncrowded... We were asked to bring a printout of our confirmation email and an ID... and then they checked out names on a list. 2 of those things would have made sense.. but all 3 made it kind of redundant. They then gave me a ticket and marked my hand with a sharpie... Again.. 1 thing made sense... 2 was redundant...
We sat in the theater and stared at this for about an hour:
There were at least 4 people playing with their NDS while we waited.... which isn't relevant to anything... just thought it was neat~ One girl was wearing her "Frak Me" shirt.
Promptly at 7pm the Microsoft Mass Effect and Zune ads started.... it wasn't too much.. but i must say that the Zune ad didn't really give me any reason to buy a Zune.
The movie was pretty cool... except the video tended to get out of sync with the sound a bit...
Halfway through the movie they played another Mass Effect and Zune commercial... I'm not complaining... it was a free ticket after all.... The movie will be on TV in 2 weeks so there are plenty of stopping points for the commercials.
The audiance was ok... Not quite as excited as they could be... but that's better than being too loud, I suppose.
I was hoping I was attanding an event instead of just a screening but there was a dissappointing lack of promotional swag.
Still, good movie, fun night...
After the credits they did a teaser for the upcoming final season... which didn't really add anything to what we already expected until the last line...
