[The Shape]

The film companies generally send out an invite about a month prior to the release of a new film for exhibitors to screen it at a location near them. They choose the locations that you are able to go to and you contact your rep at the film company to hold your place. The timing always depends on the movie, but it is usually held 2-3 weeks prior to the release. Closer to 2 for the larger films.

theShape,

You probably don't need to get there 2 and 1/2 hours early. They are usually held in HUGE theaters that hold more than 500-600 people and I've never been to a screening with more than 150 people. They do this so that you can have a good movie experience and basically choose your ideal seat. If you get there early, wait in the parking lot, because there likely will not be anyone there to let you in. Now, that may not be true for New York, but I've been to several in the Dallas area. I generally get there 30 minutes early and I am the only person in the theater.

Hope you enjoy it! I'll post my thoughts as well if anyone is interested!

Great, thanks for the advice.

You make me too.

 

[The Joker]

well the joker wasnt a main villain in the dark knight I believe that was Harvey dent/two face. joker was a similar villain to scarecrow in that they were not the main villain in their films.

Tomorrow will be a dangerous day to be on the Hype.

Indeed.

Sounds like tons of screenings are going down. Tomorrow will probably bring the start of my sabbatical.

 

[DoomsdayApex]

Surely, Bane_Fanboy must be joking with us.

 

[Thatsabingo!]

Thanos was the main one in the Avengers

Bro, spoilers!

 

[Nevincer]

Lol. Why the heck is Batman Begins so quotable?

Obviously because Goyer is the greatest writer of all-time.

He is just taking the "Harvey's story arc is the main plot for the film" thing the wrong way.

 

[The Shape]

No one has to worry about any "danger" from me! I'll be playing this one pretty close to the chest...

 

[Avengers-Report]

Less than 24 hours until the boards will be in worse shape than Gotham City.

I think the time has come and for realsies.

I'm not worried, I'm angry.

But on a serious note it's great that you're not including spoilers but someone in all likelihood is going to let it slip to a friend and that person will float onto IMDB and thus begins the reign of madness.

Yeah, but we'll have to worry about "that guy" sitting next to you and his twitter account

[Thatsabingo!]

There's always "that guy" to ruin the party.

 

[Nevincer]

I'm sure the people evacuating will balance out the people swarming in for spoils tommorow We won't have to worry about the server.

IMAX, as I think the film will be screened in IMAX for most critics.
