Going to see the movie this weekend with a couple of nephews and the wife. The kids are really looking forward to it, and I am too. Its kind of a cool concept. I am always a sucker for a love story.

The girlfriend and I are going to an earlier showing on Friday in hopes of avoiding some crowds.

Doesn't look like that will happen... showings are already selling out.

I'm pumped!

Just looked at the IMAX schedule and Natick is mostly sold out for this weekend and there are only a few shows in Reading still available.

I think I'm going to try and see it Saturday 9:15 AM showing.....In 3-D it should be the Shiznit

Me and my grandson have been waiting for this movie. Going to see it this weekend. Looks like a very entertaining flick with awesome special effects.

Me too. The wife and son are insisting we go. Also, most of my friends said they'll be going to see it this weekend. I think it's going to be one of the biggest movies in a long time. They're saying it's going to break all kinds of records.

Yep the biggest movie of the holiday season and probably win the academy award as best Picture. At the theater near me you can buy the tickets online (for a small additional fee) and then pick them up at the Box office. Its going to be a mob scene until way past New Years Day.

I'd better start scrambling for tickets it appears...Jenn and I want to see in in a theater rather than wait for Netflix

Sounds like the story of my life with my few friends. All I know is it needs a Predator and an Alien in it somewhere. Anywhere. Sorry I love watching Predator mess stuff up

My younger brother called me. He wants to take his two kids and meet me and the wife there for the grand opening. They will be talking about this one for years. I have a four year old. I plan on sneeking him in. We have done it before. Not a big deal.

thats why they call it fishing not catching

My weekly lunch group (unemployed/retired) about 6 of us can't wait to see next week. Going to the IMAX 3D in Natick, mid-week matinee so less likely to be sold out especially with the school breaks the following 2 weeks. We also get to save a couple $$ on ticket prices.

This is likely to surpass Titanic which turned out to be a blockbuster but I more liken it to the Lord of the Rings Trilogy.

"So I have not been in a movie theater since 1977"
Last time for me...bringing my son to Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles....he graduated from college 2 years ago. Can't stand the crowds & noisy kids, PIA if you have to take a leak, can't drink a beer, too much $$, etc. Guess I've turned into an old coot! Wish they would bring back drive in's!

Has this whole board flipped over this movie except BigFish? Larry has gone on the record saying: "Looks pretty bad to me! I predict a box office disaster! I will have to take a big time pass on this one! Special effects look pretty....lousy!"

Maybe we should take up a collection to buy his ticket so he doesn't miss out on this experience. One that he is sure to regret.........
