Will anyone be seeing X3 at the Leicester Square Odeon?

[grey_jeanie]

I was wondering if any Brits will be going to watch X3 at the Odeon in Leicester Square - possibly for the midnight viewing.

That's a very specific question. :p

[PhoenixWillRise]

Is the midnight viewing on the night of Wednesday 24th?

[Electrix]

It'll probably be either Odean or Vue near me.

[grey_jeanie]

That's a very specific question. :p

well yes it is I suppose, requiring a specific answer I guess :)

[xwolverine2]

wow.....what would be the chances!!!....lol!

[littyx]

Lets all make threads on what theatre we're going to see the film at 3 months ahead of time!

Yeah!?!

[grey_jeanie]

I really want to but it's right in the middle of my GCSE's but I wouldn't have one for like 6 days afterwards so I might just do it.

[spidey-dude]

go for it
i may go ther aswell if i can get n e mates to come otherwise just normal vue in harrow

[grey_jeanie]

Yeah!?!

It's not just any old cinema. It's like the most high profile one in the middle of London where all the premieres are and the atmosphere is usually really cool.

[Kevin Roegele]

I was wondering if any Brits will be going to watch X3 at the Odeon in Leicester Square - possibly for the midnight viewing.

I may be.....and don't worry, crowds are not a problem for me anymore. I think the five years with the prison therapist will prove that.

[littyx]

Well I'll probably go see X3 at the Mann's Chinese Theatre in Hollywood where the X3 premeire will probably actually happen....but that doesnt mean I'm going to start a thread about it months in advance.

[i'm Spider-Man]

hey dude,

yes i think imight just do that - at he very least i'm going to go along to the official red-carpet premiere.

[Sugarculted]

That'd be great. But I just reckon I shall see it at either Odeon or Vue cinema. Definitely gonna be the first one to see it in Leicester, I'd hang around for ages to watch the movie. And another cool thing, is that there's a new extremely cheap cinema down the road from my campus. At 2.90 a ticket, you can tell I'll be watching it every day there.

[PhoenixWillRise]

got the UGC/Cineworld unlimited pass... so i guess i'll be seeing it many times during it's cinema run..

Will try for opening night in L.Sq.. but otherwise i will just catch it in Chelsea (closer to home)

[grey_jeanie]

I just don't have anyone to go with and I don't want to get like mugged at midnight on the street! And they don't take my debit card so I need to use my Mum's credit card and the owner has to be present... :up:

[Tekaybe]

I'm checking the local Cineworld's website on a weekly basis, waiting for the advance tickets to go up :) so i'll be booking a ticket or two then... I've already booked time off work the following weekend :) However, I really don't have the money to go all the way to London and stop over (not that I'd sleep anyway - I'd be hyped for a week and be running solely on Red Bull - or rather the Tesco equivilent, Kick!) AND pay for tickets - which I suspect aren't exactly cheap!

Anyone know if any celebs (and by that I mean REAL celebs not the usual Z-listers <coughs something that sounds suspiciously like "Chantelle"> ) are gonna go to the Brit premier?

[Electrix]

Take a friend?

Bit to early to know I think.

[Tekaybe]

Love your avvy btw Electix :)

[grey_jeanie]

Some of the cast went to the London premiere for X1 and X2 so I reckon there will be a few. Admittedly it was the guys who played Toad and Sabertooth but still.

[Electrix]

Love your avvy btw Electix :)

Thanks :D

[grey_jeanie]

Take a friend?

X-men is my secret love affair which most of my friends don't know about. Although me and my friend are really sad with Harry Potter (especially her) so maybe she would come.

[Sugarculted]

Bit to early to know I think.

I cud imagine it now tho, Chantelle walking down the carpet...not having a clue what the 'X-Men' are. I'd love to attack Hugh sexually though, if he appeared.

[Tekaybe]

X-men is my sevret love affair which most of my friends don't know about. Although me and my friend are really sad with Harry Potter (especially her) so maybe she would come.

Know that feeling... I "revealed" my secret love affair with Xmen at work today by accident... didn't go down so well... they think I'm a little odd now :)

[Electrix]

I'm lucky because a few of mine want to see it. I show them the trailer when they come round and I'll probably show them the new one.

Its just going to be awkward me vibration with excitement while watching it and my mates sat next me to.

[Electrix]

What did you do/say?

[Tekaybe]

"Oh its a film about, like, issues and stuff, and, like, its really deep and, err, stuff"

[grey_jeanie]

lol. I would just love the atmosphere. I really want to go but as I said it's right in the middle of my exams

[Tekaybe]

What did you do/say?

Well I had been pouring over the latest issue of Empire (the version with Wolverine on the cover, naturally) and one of the bosses pops up with "oh are you a bit of a film buff then". Without really thinking about it, I popped out with "kinda, but I'm more of an Xmen buff really".... <silence> Utter, total silence. Then everyone suddenly had something else to do :O

[grey_jeanie]

It's not like I'm (that) embarassed but no one else is quite as obssesed

[Electrix]

Haha! :D

[Sugarculted]

X-men is my secret love affair which most of my friends don't know about. Although me and my friend are really sad with Harry Potter (especially her) so maybe she would come.

Ack, no! You should be proud of liking X-Men. Hell, I don't care if tons of people watch me as I'm practically shaking with excitement with ma X-Men gear on.

I got the Empire with Phoenix - of course

[Tekaybe]

It's not like I'm (that) embarassed but no one else is quite as obssesed

Hey *I'm* not embarrassed by it :) just my bosses :) I quite happily use my local WH Smiths (its a newspaper & Magazine shop, in case there are any "foreigners" popping in here to see whats happening in sunny ol' Blighty) as a library, spending my lunch hour in there reading the Xmen mags :)

[grey_jeanie]

Mine was from W H Smith - good old Smithy's (I made that up so it might be something like Woolies)

[Star]

X-men is my secret love affair which most of my friends don't know about. Although me and my friend are really sad with Harry Potter (especially her) so maybe she would come.

so... tell them? before i used to keep it a secret, and now im like I LOVE X-MEN !!! openly and they all ... dont care, or else think its cool....

[X-Maniac]

You've been POURING over it? Pouring what? Tea, coffee, cola, something else??? :eek:

In your sentence, the word is spelled PORING, from the verb 'to pore', to look at closely.

[Electrix]

Maniac and his English language :D

[Casius--J]

Be proud of your love for xmen I am!!!

And i'll prob catch this at the amc or unless i do actually get gold passes to my local vue.

[X-Maniac]

^^ Yep, I'm a maniac for the English language! But people should feel good about learning, especially when it stops them making mistakes!

When i used to read the Claremont-written Uncanny X-Men as a kid of nine or ten, I often used to have to grab the dictionary to look things up and those stories helped expand my mind and vocabulary! Where else would you find sentences about 'eldritch fire' or 'malefic destiny' or 'coruscating tower of force'!?

[Handyman]

I really want to see x3 at leicester square and then probably again at my local vue in finchley. i joined the bfi because they have been known to give heads up for premiere tickets for big moives (eg narnia and elizabeth town), so hopefully something x-men related will come up.

as for chantelle at the premiere... "it's kolossus with a k"

[*xmenfan*]

going to see x-men at odeon in Hemel Hempstead :)

[tedw]

We have an Ozone/Vue Cinema near here which provides a FAR better cinematic experience than the Odeons in town. You don't have to sit as close to the other people in the Ozone!

[Pirateking]

I'll be seeing X3 at the Odeon in Leicester Square. You might have heard that I'm going to the premiere.

[Chamber_UK]

Will definetly be going to the Odean in Leicester Square to see X3 as well!!! Am begging my mother to get me tickets to the priemere cause she works for Ogilvy & Mathers who is doing the European publicity for X3, doubt it thought. :( Rumour has it that Famkee and Rebbecca and Hugh definetly will be at the London priemere.

God soo many brits on the site, YEAH!!!! RULE BRITAINNIA!!! BRITAINIAA RULES THE WAVES!!!!

Everyone is going to the premiere. Right Pirateking?

I'll be going to see it at my local Vue

[The Storm]

I'd love to go to Leicester Sq for the premiere. However I work in Vue (Cardiff) and we have the largest screens in Wales so I think I'll give it a miss. Plus we the manager has given us the go ahead for dressing up, if i can convince them to put on a midnight showing.

[FieryBalrog]

Where else would you find sentences about 'eldritch fire' or 'malefic destiny' or 'coruscating tower of force'!?

hahaha

[Chamber_UK]

Gee i wonder what happened to those american wankers who didn't think many people would respond to this thread.....HMMMMMMMM???

[LEX]

Man, I want a premiere here in Australia, but it's unlikely. *sighs* :( I'll just go alone to the Castle Towers in Castle Hill on the first day.

[Handyman]

I'll be seeing X3 at the Odeon in Leicester Square. You might have heard that I'm going to the premiere.

Congratulations by the way - It's my dream to see the premiere when it happens!

Do you know whether there is any genereal public way to get tickets? I would be willing to pay ridiculous amounts...

[grey_jeanie]

I'd love to go to the premiere too. I think it's all about connections of which I have evry few :(

[Aiden]

I think they're usually around £100+ or something

*coughitsaboutbribescough*

ah, you seem like someone with connections! Won't you just step into my office for a second... who left this huge suitcase of money on the desk here!

[LEX]

Any Aussies around here? :D

[WorthyStevens]

ah, you seem like someone with connections! Won't you just step into my office for a second... who left this huge suitcase of money on the desk here!

Hmmm...

I may take your 'offer' into consideration.





I don't have any connections.

*takes suitcase and bolts out the door.*


:p

[grey_jeanie]

Do you think you would be able to get premiere tickets on eBay?

[LEX]

Do you think you would be able to get premiere tickets on eBay?
Wow, the prices would be extremely expensive. :eek:

Nevermind tickets? I'm on the guestlist.

[NocturnalMadman]

U won't believe this, My sis hadta go to hospital last night, slipped on wet floor and smacked her head (she's ok) and I was talking to a security guy who it turned out did the odd photo shoot for premieres, and when I asked if he was doing X3 he said yeah, "it's just a film".. I was like WHAT DO YOU MEAN JUST A FILM?!!! Unfortunately I hadta turn my attention to my sister from then on, I didn't get to badger and drop hints about talking me along haha. Damn.

Awww. :p Tha'd be awesome to go along ride with him, taking photos from the X3 celebrities. :eek::up:

[Iceman]

Will anyone be seeing X3 at the Leicester Square Odeon?

:up: :up:

Definitely, I'm planning to attend 2 showings on the first day. I don't think non Brits will understand the electric atmosphere on the 1st day of a popular film with genre fans at LS Odeon.

[grey_jeanie]

I really want to go but I don't have anyone to go with who likes x-men.

[Iceman]

I really want to go but I don't have anyone to go with who likes x-men.

Well I'm definitely going to 2 showings on Opening Day with different people so if you need some buds, you're welcome to join us.

[grey_jeanie]

I'm like 16 so you might look a bit sad with me tagging along. Some of the SHH brits should like arrange to go.

[grey_jeanie]

Any more Brits thinking of going?

[aaron]

im gonna be seein it here in la, then im visiting london and ny for family, so ill see it them places too

[grey_jeanie]

Yeah but Odeon Leicester square is arguably the most 'glamorous' cinema in England.

but how many of the audience will be fans of the x-universe, marvel, cos i havent been to a first day film in england

[grey_jeanie]

but how many of the audience will be fans of the x-universe, marvel, cos i havent been to a first day film in england

They will be movie fans because you don't just go there to see any old film, you go there because you want an experience. The first day (especially midnight viewing) will be FULL of x-fans

[NocturnalMadman]

I've got the week off work, I'd love to go see it at LS Odeon

When is the first public showing?

I'll prob just end up seeing it at my local on the friday evening tho...

[aaron]

like how full? no general audience?

[grey_jeanie]

Not at midnight, it will be all fans I'm sure. You don't go all the way into central London and pay for the expensive tickets unless you're a fan. On the other days there will be general public but it's still a place to go if you want the experience so there will be a higher concentration of fans than in most other cinemas.

dont tell me therell be ********s goin there in x costumes

[Iceman]

but how many of the audience will be fans of the x-universe, marvel, cos i havent been to a first day film in england
On the 1st day only and using pure guesswork based on my experiences of previous LS first showings, the audience will be made up of 40% hardcore fans, 40% general X-Men film lovers and 20% general film fans (who aren't fans outside of the X-films and are just going for a good day out or with someone else who loves the films). I would expect 99% of the audience to have seen and really liked the 1st 2 films.

After Day 1 things will change totally and the atmosphere won't be comparable. Also, I wouldn't attend an afternoon showing if there is one.

[grey_jeanie]

Probably :up: *camera opportunity*

[aaron]

how bout the audience during the showin? they applauding and screaming?

[Iceman]

I'm like 16 so you might look a bit sad with me tagging along. Some of the SHH brits should like arrange to go.


It's not about age. It's about how many people you're prepared to kill to get a good seat on the day! :D

That's right. We need to recruit some of these Brits :up:

[Iceman]

Take earplugs :up:

[aaron]

when can you get your tickets for the midnight showin?

id probly end up hitting ya ;)

[Iceman]

dont tell me therell be ********s goin there in x costumes

For anything Star Wars / Lord of the Rings Yes

I can't remember many costumes for the X-Men films though last time.


However, people do get dressed up for the red carpet premiere where all the stars show up about a week before.

[Iceman]

when can you get your tickets for the midnight showin?

Book thorugh Odeon website or go to the cinema and book them (I'll probably be doing this). Are you based in LA? (looking under your av).

[grey_jeanie]

It's not about age. It's about how many people you're prepared to kill to get a good seat on the day! :D

That's why I started the thread up again. I really want to go to the midnight one but I can only find one friend willing to go with me and that's only because I went to Harry Potter with her on the first evening.


id probly end up hitting ya ;)


I'll take body armor then :up:

[NocturnalMadman]

People shout out and scream and clap and stuff?

Man that'd be anoying!

I usually see films on orange weds a couple weeks after they are out, and the cinema is pretty empty.

For X3 i'll see it opening night, but I hope people wont be shouting out. I'll book my tickets in advance. And I might cry.

London would be too awkward for me I think, it scares me enough in the day! Plus I wouldnt be able to get home aterwards

[aaron]

yeh i am, jus curious how it goes down over there

[Iceman]

haha, i hate audiences who applaud every little thing..pisses me off

No but it's great having an audience who appluads, laughs or is horrified at the right times in the film. Even if the film is a turkey, you want the audience to be dissapointed for the right reasons.

[aaron]

I'll take body armor then :up:
i wont be there, but take in case some idiots wolverine claws catch ya

[Iceman]

Midnight won't have any non-x-fans I don't think.



There's a hardcore of people who go to the midnight showings of all the big sci-fi / fnatasy films (me being one of them). They might be bigger fans of Batman or The Matrix but they'll still turn up to the X-films midnight showings. Once you taste the atmosphere you want to go and see how fans of other films react.

Also you have the hanger ons eg partners and friends who are being dragged along who aren't offical fans themselves.

[grey_jeanie]

You need to do a few more sly deals like the Harry Potter one and get your friends to owe you a few favours. The London experience is great but you need someone to go with. Otherwise you're out on your own at 2am and it's not easy getting anywhere fast.

[aaron]

say youll buy them their popcorn n drinks n candy

[NocturnalMadman]

but not all annoying kids are chavs...just 90% of them

The shouting is at the right times though. At the opening and closing credits and only when something fanboyish like the fastball special happens. The atmosphere is the real difference between watching it there and anywhere else.

If you dislike the volume though, probably best to try somewhere else. I would never forgive myself if I missed it.

[NocturnalMadman]

man that musta killed, what film?

Not a film, just them in general. He was 14 last week and had a sleep over, I came in drunk around 2 am and ended up being bundled to the floor, smothered under blankets and whipped cream sprayed on me.

[Iceman]

i prefer an audience thats small and quiet...so i can contentrate better, last film i went to in england, kids(chavs?) were laughing and makin it hard to stick to the movie

Unfortunately that's what it's like in many other cinemas in England especially after opening weekend. Invasion of the ****** chavs. :down:(

25. I'm incredibly puny and weak tho...and I was pretty drunk and half asleep.

So on what day of the week is this midnight showing at?

[Iceman]

Is that people with tickets or the people who crowd behind the barriers? I always thought have sad that looked but now having experienced the x-obssesion I'm sort of tempted to try and get a glimpse of the actors.

The behind the barriers X2 experience was amazing. People do it for many other films but its much better for a film with a massive cast. Otherwise you're waiting around for hours for only one or two people. It might look sad and it is very crowded but you need to question why all these people bother doing it.

The underground doesn't usually run that late. If you're serious about going, you need to plan exactly where you're staying and how you're going to get there. It will be unsafe if you leave it to the last minute and are unsure. :(

[aaron]

"Do you hate...normal people?"
how do you class a normal person?

[grey_jeanie]

I think you're probably right. Amazing Lee? lol

Yeah, he posts here. He's british I think. Check out his picture in the SHH photo album.

[Iceman]

I love the atmosphere. It will make the film 100 times better and more memorable.

Not going is like seeing your new born kid the day after he/she is born. Still great but not quite the same. :p

I would book a taxi beforehand.

And about the underground not running that late - did not know that! Mental note: could be useful :up: :D

so youre not a chav?

Course not :mad::(

what are you then?

[NocturnalMadman]

how do you class a normal person?

lol, I was just being random quoting Senator Kelly, but I think what I was trying to get at is there's probably no particular type of person you can lump X-Fans into.

A lot will surely be geeks. Others, "normal" with perhaps geekish tendencies. But then there's probably tons who aren't geekish.

But let's face it, comics and sci fi films ARE geeky things to be into, you must have a LITTLE bit of geek in you to be interested in them.

Which is why chavs wouldnt be fans lol

But I'm sure chavs would find the special effects and action pretty satisfying and "COOL" in a chavvy, not geeky way...

[Iceman]

Are you going to do it this year? When is the premiere?

Definitely.:up::up::up:

I'm not sure if the date has been set yet (it might have). I normally find out about a week before it happens but it should be about a week before May 26.

I think Pirateking (from reading earlier) has actually got tickets to the premiere :eek: so will be sitting with the stars.

Lucky ************* but have to say well done:up:.

Heck. I'm a geek. It's my thing, and because of that it's kind of cool. I think your only a 'geek' if you're embarassed by it.

so youre emberassed by it?

[grey_jeanie]

so youre emberassed by it?

No. 'Geek's (in inverted commas as in the stereotypical sort who get bullied etc). I'm not embarassed so I'm less of the stereotypical geek.

[Iceman]

your sister?!

luckily enough ive got 2 friends who are very much x fans and know alot bout the marvel universe, so thats one showin

also got my girl to go with

I've got a lot of different mates who want to see X3 (that's why I'm going to multiple showings in the first week with different sets of people) but none of them knew anything about X-Men in 2000. Back then I was just banging my head against a wall. But at least I managed to make a fan out of my sister. :up:

[NocturnalMadman]

Alot of geeks revel in it lol Did you watch Beauty and the Geek?

I love declaring I'm a geek but people just look at me like I'm weird and sy "Brett...you're not a geek"

Which dissapoints me haha

But at a training course yesterday, learning about dealing with peoples sickness, holiday, wages etc we hadta enter people into the system for one of the exercises and I added Miss Kitty Pryde.

When the guy said who knows where he got such a name from and I said "she's an X-Man of course, go see X-Men 3 in May and you'll see" he said "is anyone else worried that we're letting him loose on our wages?" haha

[aaron]

The Leicester Square odeon is where I want to see King Kong and there was no x-3 teaser! :mad:

And about the underground not running that late - did not know that! Mental note: could be useful :up: :D

Whenever I go out in London I have to stay at mates who live centrally or stay out till 5 or 6 when the tubes start running again. :(

No that's real - I had to murder a Chav to get it :p

Everyone here goes on about teasers, TV spots etc. We Brits get everything 3 months late. :(

[NocturnalMadman]

This thread has doubled in pages in the last hour!

When I see it, I've got my sis whos an X-fan (the cartoons and movies atleast) then Graham, whos nearly as excited as me, but he only knows the movies. Then his girlfriend and her twin, who only saw the first 2 last month, when I made them, but they liked them and a couple of other friends who are fans of the movies and have their excitement elvel upped by me keep hyping it.

But that's all of us in one showing. I'm not sure if they'll wanna go again, and the cinema is out of the way so I can't go without a lift...

[Iceman]

So is your sister going as well? How old is she?

26

I'll probably see the evening showing (5, 6 or 7 pm) with her so I'll already know what happens before the midnight showing. The evening showing is 85% as good as the midnight showing. I just need a break in between.

[grey_jeanie]

Everyone here goes on about teasers, TV spots etc. We Brits get everything 3 months late. :(

It's not just teasers and tv spots. We don't get the PROGRAMMES that they accompany. That annoys me. I can't go on any of the tv program threads here because everyone else is like a season ahead and spoil the plots :(

The only programme we get before anyone else is Doctor Who which is cool

Talk about devoted!

I'll try to see it a few times, but with atleast a week between them...I don't wanna wear it out. I do that all the time with songs, love them, anticipate them, play them over and over...and then they lose their magic.

[Iceman]

Eek I'd never do that!

Can you say "Creep"...?

It's not that much of a problem as loads of places I like in London stay open late anyway especially after the new regulations.

[grey_jeanie]

I'm going to have to do some serious rallying around to get people to come. I was going to compromise and go to the evening showing but now I'm determined!!

It is in my GCSE week though. I have THREE english exams that day...

[Iceman]

A chav had a REAL ONE? Wow. He must have murdered a shopkeeper to get it.

Good point it must have been a fake - unless the chav was a fake chav. Oh no have I just murdered an innocent bystander? :eek:

[NocturnalMadman]

It's not that much of a problem as loads of places I like in London stay open late anyway especially after the new regulations.

So what day is the midnight showing gonna first be happening?

I'd really LOVE to go, the atmosphere would be wild!

But in some ways I'd prefer to be at the local, where as a huge fan I'm more in the minority and see the reaction of more general movie goers

Don't mess up your exams! Not only will you be tired but you'll have x3 running thru your mind and u wontbe able to concentrate.

Plus you might start to get nerves becasue of that and then not enjoy the film so much!

That would never happen with X-Men. I've got and seen nearly every X-thing ever and I've never started getting bored.

But it does apply to other films. :(

No the day OF the midnight viewing. Then I have a gap of about 10 days before the next one.

3 exams in one day :eek:

That's sadistic :(

Your eyes will need a bit of rest in between so it's probably better to go to a later showing.

[NocturnalMadman]

No the day OF the midnight viewing. Then I have a gap of about 10 days before the next one.

So long as excitent for x3 doesnt cloud your brain!

Gtg for now, later guys ;)

At LS the midnight showing is not normally the first showing. The first one will probably be on May 26.

You can always follow up with a local showing the next day as I don't think the difference between Friday/Saturday will be as big as LS.

[Iceman]

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSS


Yes yes yes yes

This is the thing. The US gets the episodes ahead of us & I wandered over to the Hype Smallville forum about 6 weeks ago and got a very nasty surpsrise.

No spoiler tags as everyone had already seen it except me :(:(:(:(:(

you do know that according to the website, we in the UK dont get X3 until the 27th?

and quit your whining :p I have 2 english lit papers on the 26th and 2 psychology papers on the 25th as well.

Good luck in your GSCEs anyway, I thought they were a breeze last year. I got a crazy set of grades that I wasnt expecting to get and I was really ill when I took half of them too.

I really need to start doing some revision, AS levels are a nightmare :( X3 is going to be my reward for not killing myself during the exams lol

[NocturnalMadman]

OMG...It's the OFFICAL SITE that says the UK gets it on 27th...

NOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooOOO OOOOO!!

I think sometimes theres advance screenings a day or 2 before or something tho of most films isnt there?

I feel like moving to Belgium now.

[NocturnalMadman]

27th is a saturday so it's very unlikely. I'm sure it will come out on the 26th.

[LEX]

Movies usually come out on Thursday, so May 25 seems about right.

It's actually gonna be Thursday 25th... Expected previews on Wednesday 24th too...

Saturday 27th on the website is obiviously a typo, mainly because movies never start their weekend run on a Saturday!

[Aiden]

I was watching the feature ITV had on Ice Age 2 this morning and that degenerate Chantelle was walking down the carpet mingling with celebrities (Brian Connolly etc, real A Listers). I swear to God if she sets foot on the same carpet as Halle Berry, I will murder her

I swear to God if she sets foot on the same carpet as Halle Berry, I will murder herIf only Halle Berry would be in the UK for the premier... I highly doubt it...
As the USA promo will be in full swing that weekend I doubt many of the big stars will be there for the UK premier... maybe some UK stars like Vinnie Jones, Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen....

But I doubt we will get Famke, Halle, Hugh, Rebecca, Kelsey etc etc...

[Aiden]

Everyone will be present at the UK premiere

[LEX]

^Really? Everyone?

[DarknessOfDeath]

not everyone... lol Im in Canada. So I won't be in the UK :p

[Aiden]

^Really? Everyone?According to Pirateking, yes

[Celestial]

I think there will be a good turn out the cast at the Cannes Film Festival and London is just a short flight away.

For X2, London had a better cast turnout than LA as at least four of the principle actors were based in the UK at the time (Patrick Stewart, Hugh Jackman, Ian McKellen, Brian Cox) and of these, only Hugh went to both.

[Storm22]

Have you guys heard thant Bryan Singer himself will be at the premiere, I dunno which one, I'm presuming America. He said it in a recent Superman Returns related article. That's pretty cool imo!

[lordofthenerds]

Have you guys heard thant Bryan Singer himself will be at the premiere, I dunno which one, I'm presuming America. That's pretty cool imo!
Yeah...he'll be the sacrifice for the premiere. :D

[Aiden]

Bryan and Halle in the same cinema.




CATFIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!

:D

[PhoenixWillRise]

According to Pirateking, yes

We will see ;)

I would bet that yes, you will have 4 or 5 stars... but i think they will be McKellen, Stewart, Jones.. then possibly Jackman and one or two of the "kids"... either Ellen, Ben or Shawn or someone like that...

[Aiden]

I would bet that yes, you will have 4 or 5 stars... but i think they will be McKellen, Stewart, Jones.. then possibly Jackman and one or two of the "kids"... either Ellen, Ben or Shawn or someone like that...Pirateking said earlier that everyone was going

[LEX]

Let's hope there will be lots and lots of photos! :D

[PhoenixWillRise]

Pirateking said earlier that everyone was goingI would highly doubt that...
I dont think "everyone" has ever been seen publically together, except for the X Men set!!

Besides, how can "everyone" be in the UK when most of them are gonna be doing the promo rounds and premiers etc in the USA at the same time...

Now I know that quite a few of the stars are expected at Cannes in May, so that will probably be the biggest gathering of the stars...

Also, why would they all turn up for the UK premier and not the USA one... remember that X Men is not as big in the UK as it is in the USA...
In the UK X Men is in the kind of league as Fantastic 4 etc... while in the USA X Men is in a league above those kinda films!

[Electrix]

Well I think everyone but Halle turned up to the X2 premier in the UK.

I think many of them will be there. A few of the cast members are British so they will make sure they are there.

[PhoenixWillRise]

Well I think everyone but Halle turned up to the X2 premier in the UK.

I think many of them will be there. A few of the cast members are British so they will make sure they are there.James Marsden, Famke Janssen, Anna Paquin, Shawn Ashmore, Halle Berry... dont remmber any of them being at the UK premier...

X2 had a big British based cast, so it was easier for them.. Pat Stewart, Ian McKellen, Hugh Jackman, Alan Cummings, Brian Cox etc..

I will be very surprised if any of the "hollywood" stars, like James, Famke, Halle, Anna etc show up for the X3 premier!

[Electrix]

There is a photo of them all above the Odeon Logo. I can remember it because someone said it looked like Patrick holding a digital camera.

http://www.phase9.tv/images1a/X-Men_2_premiere_-8_Rebecca_Romjin-Stamos_Famke_Janssen_and_Kelly_Hu_arrive_at_the_UK _Premiere.jpg

Heres Famke for a start.

[PhoenixWillRise]

Wow, never relaised Famke went (i remember Rebecca being there, cuz i was watching the Televised footage of the premier and she was acting like she had just taken a few grams of coke!

Can't wait till the X3 one.

That's it, I'm moving to UK.

I get too anxious so i decided to book for the west end vue as the tickets weren't coming on the screen for Leicester Square - im still thinking of going to the premiere although i havent heard anything definite as to the date because on the 22nd of May they are having a screening in the USA with halle and hugh (there was a comptetion that said so). although, this could just mean that they wont be there...

[grey_jeanie]

lol 6 posts. Anyone know when the premiere actually is?

[Iceman]

I had heard earlier that it was the 22nd but maybe not if Handyman is correct.

So Odeon is selling tickets for the afternoon but not the later showings?

Now I'm getting worried - the staff there have cocked up my tickets before.

I remember struggling to find any advance information on the X2 premiere as well. I don't know if it's something to do with Odeon.

[Bastila]

So X3 is getting no London preamier well that really sucks.

[Iceman]

I don't think it's correct. I can remember the X2 premiere in 2003 not being listed anywhere as I was searching for info on it before going. Either way we should get news of it very soon.

[Handyman]

Hi everyone, i tried to post this in the morning but i had some problems with my log in. anyway, this is a copy of a response odeon sent me when i was enquiring about booking tickets at leicester square odeon. looks like they wont be showing it there (where will the premiere be?) unless this guy is misinformed...

Dear Andreas

Thank you for your email.

Tickets will be on sale soon for X men 3.

that sucks why not its going to be one of the biggest films this year, i bet they shoe davince code instead.

New info: I just rang up the Odean phone line and and they are not showing it at LS becuase it's a Warner Village film.

What's the biggest Warner Village cinema??

[grey_jeanie]

Ok just me who's upset by that :( No premiere, no showings...

[Iceman]

It's on at Vue instead.

[grey_jeanie]

Is there a good one in London? Equivalent to LS?

I was wondering is the film out on the 25th or the 26th?

Yes it's in Leicester Square and is similar size to Empire & Odeon. However, it is a multiplex so you won't get the same "big event" feeling. There will be more than one showing going on at a time so the fans will be split. Unfortunately the experience can't compare to the other two cinemas.

It only had listings on thursday (Vue) last time I checked but these seem to change by the day. I don't think I'm going to the midnight showing anymore as the experience in a multiplex is not the same as in an event cinema. :(

Same plus I realised I've got 2 GCSEs that day!

Doesn't that mean you'd rather go to a later showing to give yourself time to recover? :confused:

[grey_jeanie]

What time showing are people thinking of going to?

[Iceman]

I haven't decided yet. There's a new "View the whole trilogy" back to back at Vue on the 24th that's just gone up on the website. It starts at 7pm.

I would probably go to that but not sure if I can make it yet.

[Bastila]

Well im going on thursday but i can go at 12:15, or wait till like 8:40 to go with somone and i wanna really see it lol.

[Handyman]
