Please don't use the word "right" in that description. They aren't part of the "right", they're just a small group of nutjobs.
Personally I'd go general and plan to arrive early, 1-2 hours depending on your experience with lines at that theater.
Thank you. I'm going to expand my search a bit. All showings are 8:20pm or later...I'm afraid if we arrive somewhere too early that my son may end up falling asleep before the movie starts..or at the very least we will have to get up to use the restroom and lose our seats.lol. I'll probably try to get him to take a nap after school either way though.
Wil Wheaton gave it an equally as glowing review as well.
Wow that review got me really psyched. I don't think any movie will top Empire for me but That's a personal bias. I think the military aspect of it is going to give it the darkness that most of us wished AOTC and ROTS had. I also don't see a "kiddie" element to this movie which I think is something ANH and TESB didn't have either. All in all, I'm super excited
I'm going to need to save this. My dad was asking questions about it, and saying "it's a prequel to episode IV about the Death Star plans" wasn't exactly cutting it.
This reminds me of one of the trailers for HP 7
My son is wearing his Vader Ugly Christmas Sweater! I'm wearing my Death Star sweatshirt.I'm going to need to save this. My dad was asking questions about it, and saying "it's a prequel to episode IV about the Death Star plans" wasn't exactly cutting it.
I was considering wearing my Rey costume to the theater, but I'll probably go with my Vader Christmas sweater instead. I don't exactly feel like arguing with 'true fans' that 'Yes, I know Rey isn't in this movie, yes I know it's set before A New Hope'.
First and foremost, I want to know what kind of a movie theater you're going to that has reserved seating??? The only things I've had to reserve seating for have been sports venues and theater productions (like Phantom) I usually go to Cinemark theaters, and have a pretty decent time. I highly suggest getting there early. When I saw The Force Awakens last year, 3 days after it premiered, I didn't get there until a few minutes before the movie started, and ended up in the 3rd row. "Never again!" I said, not knowing that I would be in the first row when I saw Deadpool in February.
This is probably going to be the only movie with these characters (because I fully expect 75% of them to die before the end).
It has become common place here in Jacksonville Florida. I can't think of a single major theater here in Jacksonville that does not do this for their main theaters showing the first run blockbusters. Some are doing it for every showing in every theater.First and foremost, I want to know what kind of a movie theater you're going to that has reserved seating???

I'm planning on going Friday or Saturday (at a local Cinemark), and buying my tickets in advance (once I figure out my dad's schedule, since he'll want to go). We'll probably get there at least 15 minutes early (though I think the latest would be 20 minutes lol). I live in a university town, and most of the students should be gone by Saturday afternoon, so there shouldn't be a huge wait at the theater (though again, I have learned my lesson after TFA and Deadpool). I think it all depends on what theater you go to, and what crowds are usually like for opening day movies. I fully expect theaters to have several screens reserved for Rogue One, so it should be easier to pick a time that works best for you.
Looking back on your other posts, I think you should be okay going into Rogue One without any prior Star Wars knowledge (I think). Sort of like how Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them can stand on it's own without Harry Potter, Rogue One should be able to stand on it's own. Before you ask- the sequel to Rogue One is called Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope. It came out in 1977
In terms of the watching order (idk if you've started yet), I'd simply just watched IV, V, VI, and VII. If you want, check out the prequels for Young!Natalie Portman, Liam Neeson & Ewan McGregor doing a pretty decent job with what they're handed, Jar Jar Binks- the worst Star Wars character ever, and Darth Maul- one of the coolest villains designed who unfortunately was not given a lot to do. I don't remember anything from the prequels being mentioned in The Force Awakens (episode VII), so you probably could be okay skipping them.
(This turned out to be a lot longer than I expected, please let me know if you have questions)
Wow. Okay, the seating thing does sound nice, I just didn't know it was a thing.
Our normal order at my local AMC is the #2 combo. This consists of a large popcorn and 2 large drinks for roughly $21.
Got it. That actually makes me feel a lot better. Thanks for clearing that up
