Come on I would have committed suicide after waiting in line 3 months and finally seeing "Phantom Menace"
One day, this will be something they'll tell someone else's grandchildren about.
I think their girlfriends will keep the site up to date for them.
Why bother.
And the funniest thing is that me living on the east coast, I'll see it before they do. And I'll get the tickets the same day on the internet.
Hire a battlebot to stand in for you, put a web cam on it, remote it from your cubicle, head over once a day to change fuel, and you can keep your job.
That spinning one made by the nice amish-hat guys would do nicely, methinks.

Exactly. I saw LotR on opening day at the same theater these guys are camping out at. I bought my tickets a couple of days before via Fandango, showed up at the theater about two hours ahead of time, got great seats, and enjoyed the movie.
The funny thing is, if these guys are actually waiting to buy tickets, they might not get any. They could sell out on Fandango before the box office ever opens. I know that the first few days LotR was showing everything was sold out well in advance. I can see it now, on opening day the crowd files by them to go watch the movie while they stand outside in the Seattle rain because all the smart people bought their tickets on the internet. 4 1/2 months spent waiting for nothing. I'd pay to see that.
