Star Wars Fans in Line... at the Wrong Theater

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the hate-when-that-happens dept.

Rollie Hawk writes "More than a month before the premiere of Revenge of the Sith, fans are already lining up. Outside Grauman's Chinese Theater, eleven diehard Star Wars fans (i.e. lifelong virgins) are waiting for tickets to go on sale. Unfortunately, it appears that the guys with girlfriends will have the last laugh as the Chinese Theater isn't even premiering the film."

    would it be better if they were waiting in line at the right theater?

    The movie is still probably going to suck, and it's pretty stupid to waste a month of their lives for a movie that will most likely be terrible.

    Slashdot is sounding more and more like high school jocks who pick on "nerds". (BTW, I'm not a Star Wars fan)

    I'm not being an ass, just being nitpicky, but you can't watch a .torrent file. You mean they've watched the movie they've downloaded with Bit Torrent. I've been seeing so many people thinking torrents are anything from archives to video files. I'm sure you mistyped, but I want to do the best I can to assure that people know the difference.
