Okay, I am over the insanity of my previous post, and shall thus be posting something that might actually make a bit of sense.

I hope.

Oh, anything spoilerific will be hidden behind the cut. The rest isn't.

Anyhoo, as you may have realised (unless you are [livejournal.com profile] dibsy), I went and saw the Star Wars midnight Premiere last night. Before hand I was with some college and assorted other people, eating sweet pizzas on Lygon Street, and then I went and joined up with random Second-Floorians down at the cinema.

The final group was: Me, [livejournal.com profile] neo_leviathan, [livejournal.com profile] lena_supercat, [livejournal.com profile] ephant, [livejournal.com profile] melbournian, Anna (who I don't really know), Michael from IH, and Rob from Whitley College.

The wait was nowhere near as long as I had expected - yay for pre-booked tickets! - and I had a lot of fun chasing after people in costumes so I could take photos of them. Lots of Jedi costumes, but being as we were at Hoyts, not the big opening at Crown, not a huge amount of really fancy costumes. Oh, and I saw a few people wearing Star Trek badges *is amused*

Once inside, my group went and got seats up the very back (I was still waiting outside for everyone to show up). Once I got in there, there was a real party like atmosphere - lots of lightsabres being waved, photos taken, and two guys (one dressed Sith, the other like Luke in ANH) got huge cheers for a mock lightsabre fight. Oh, and several others in my group started playing 500 in the wait, of all things!

There was a huge amount of noise when the lights went down, but very little sympathy was given to the previews. And the didn't turn the sound up for ages!

Though, quote of the night had to go to some random guy in the crowd. Just when the "A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away..." came onto screen, he yelled out:
"I've seen this one!"
*snorfle*

And onto the movie )

All I can say is: *waves hand* You WILL see Episode 3.
