Personally, I'm just holding off until tuesday and then I'm going to drive to Target and BUY my copy.  lol.

But that's a cute little website for the theater.  I hope it comes to our Cinema Grill - it only seats about 25 people, tickets are like $5, and then you go in to the theater and it's a full service restaurant and bar.  You can sit at a table with nicely upholstered swivel chairs and watch the movie while you eat.  The food's a bit pricey, but it's a good experience.
Could you imagine eating and crying?  We're pretty seasoned BBM veterans but the first few times we saw it, if we ate, we would need abdominal thrusts to dislodge food from our tracheas! That theater is a great idea.  They have a few of those in the country. I believe in Chicago, there is a theater that charges for premium seating,  has a glass enclosed area and serves wine, etc.

I am buying 4 copies Tuesday morning. One at WalMart (hate the store but need to do it as a political gesture against the AFA-American Family Association) and 3 at Best Buy.  4 more days (3.5 if I buy it at midnight at the Walmart Superstore).

Pug, I'm dense this am.  Why is buying it at Wal-Mart a gesture against AFA?  I hate W-M, too, but maybe I needt o reconsider, also.

Not eating and crying.  But definitely wine and tears.  I went to see it (many times) at the landmark arts theatre here and there is a bar attached that you can take your drink with you to the theatre.  Welp, when I sat down, three ladies sat next to me and they brought in a bucket with a bottle of white wine, three glasses and another bottle of red....by the time the movie was done, the lady next to me was tipsy and absolutely SOBBING!  She was a hoot to watch...she was a little woobly on her legs too when she tried to get up.  But all of us sitting around her were laughing because she was boo-hoo-ing for like 15 minutes after the movie ended.  (Maybe it was the wine?)

even those of us that were crying and teary-eyed and sniffly had pulled ourselves

love it!

Thank you for the info, Pug.  I'm going to Wal-Mart.  I'll grit my teeth and do it.

paintedshoes,
Yeah, I hate Walmart too: the killer of American business, shitty employer, Old Soviet-style retail atmosphere etc but I need to buy there for the reason I stated.

Same type of folks probably thought owning slaves and burning witches at the stake were good things to do too!

Pug, I wanted to let you know that I've cross-posted that AFA info into other areas of the forum... perhaps one of the mods would make a global post if you asked them?

H.
good idea...

You're right, that would be the smart thing for me to do!
I LOVE the idea of your locall Cinema Grill, I've never heard of that.
Would be SO COOL to have one where we live.
Hum, wonder how many bucks you would need to start something like that.  Need to ponder, doesn't cost ANYTHING to dream.    :)

non-thousand-poster jumpin in for a second to ask if Wal-Mart still has the policy of selling only movies with the sex scenes edited out?
May the bridges I burn light the way forward.
