Movie Outing: Transformers 2

So, Transformers is out this Wednesday and I think it's time for a GL outing.

Date: Saturday June 27
Place: South Edmonton Common
Time: Movie starts at 8. I suggest meeting at a restaurant at around 3 to grab some food. That leaves us more than ample time to eat, chat, and get in line as I'm sure it'll be busy.

I am open to suggestions for a restaurant as I think some of us are getting sick of BP's. Or if you want BP's that's fine too.

People coming:

1.) Kirika
2.) Whyte
3.) Grapes
4.) Dolphin (?)
5.) Andrew (from Bioware)

Transformers 2 is definately a North Common necessary movie. Until South Common changes their bulb policy, they're no good for the big spectacle blockbuster flicks.

I'm going on thursday though. :(

your such a goof. However asking for better quality is not a bad thing. The problem is.... why would you want to watch any movie on inferior equipment. Why does transformers requir a HQ experience and some shit movie does not

You should picket outside, think of a clever chant and slogan/sign and everything.

I don't really care if some comedy or something is a little dimmer than it should be. If I'm going to watch a movie full of visual effects, though, I think it should look right.

you might want to watch in IMAX if you want quality:
Michael Bay wrote:The way to see this movie is on IMAX. Never before has there been 4k rendered character animation shot on full IMAX 70 mm film. This is a first and the results are stunning. You will see Optimus Prime in a few shots where he is actually perfectly to scale on the IMAX 50 foot tall screens.

For IMAX, I created a slightly longer cut with more robot fighting. Four scenes were shot on IMAX cameras so the screen will fill the full IMAX screen for these scenes.

Fixed. Though I kinda thought it was obvious considering we all work during the week days.
