Saw it in Austin last night! Enjoy!
Ummmm...4th? Heh. -
Was having a crap day before this. Thanx and lets get more AICN events in NYC
-
Im 19 and everything but my guest is 17 and only has a H.S. ID will that be enough to get her in or do we both need to be 18+ or something?
-
I can't wait. See you all there!!!
-
Thanks.
-
Mr. Beaks at the last second decided to make it random selection, so a lot of us who replied withing MINUTES of the posting aren't getting in.
-
I never win anything! Man I needed this. Been a lot of bad news/vibes lately. Now if it can just keep from disappointing. Condolences to those who didn't make it in.
-
So glad I made it in!
-
thanks AICN!
-
i'm not on the list. that's what i get for having a job and not being able to check AICN. guess i'll have to buy a ticket next Friday like the other riff-raff.
-
The original post on the screenings didn't have NYC info. Fuck you you fascists!
-
Very cool, I'm assuming since this is an AICN screening then a seat is all but guaranteed, only the quality of the seating depending on when u arrive? I hope I dont have to fight with 1,000 other people who got tickets from radio stations and newspapers.
-
Is this going to happen?
-
Gooot it.
-
As always i never make it in time.
-
a screening in la, ny, and austin. Nowhere else that was listed though. Shocking.
-
it's done! new york is dead as john lennon and my dad! fuck you noel coward and fuck you james bulloosheee and fuck you mamma cass and fuck you prince albert and fuck you queen of gross suffering and fuck you hands across the water and fuck you 14th union square and fuck you marigold and cheese pizza and fuck you cabbage soup and fuck you shoelaces and fuck you shoemania and fuck you 2 train and fuck you autobiographical poetry and fuck you shirley temple and fuck you all who gathered here and fuck you emily dickinson and fuck you moon and fuck you sun and fuck you listerine and fuck you motor cars!
-
SHIT! I DON'T EVEN LIVE THERE!!!
-
I'll see you guys on monday!
-
this is gonna be so sweet.
-
You're spilling over into a different thread to continue whining about this? Thanks for reinforcing that LA is an inferior city full of pussies. Christ, I hate this city sometimes...
-
come ON guys, I'll give a nut to see this here! please give us details!
-
Im sure that would have been funny if anybody had read any of that...
-
Really, really does...
-
Any way to substitute a friend who's name u submitted as your guest?
-
... Is listed twice at #11 and #181.
-
BSB, did you get in?
-
Aug 09, 2009 12:36:37 PM CDT
did anyone who emailed after 4pm that day make it in
by bayridgeindahouse
Sbeeett... I didn't make it ... how early do you have to email to get into these suckers? ...

FUCKING RAD! I'll Be There Too!

Yackbacker I'll see you there dude
-
Aug 09, 2009 1:32:27 PM CDT
So is Blomkamp going to be there?
by the_ender_smites_foes_returns_in_force
I really want to ask that guy a few questions
-
I'm assuming these are all single seats even if a guest was requested.
-
I looked at the original post for the details. Both my name and the name of my guest are on the list, so it seems like guests are just listed (as opposed to "Winner +1")
-
As I didn't mention my girlfriend specifically by name. Guess I'm shit outta luck.
-
Bound to be some no-shows.
-
I just realized they havent said where the screening is taking place.
-
The screening is August 10th at 8pm at the AMC 34th Street Fourteen, 312 W 34th Street, New York, NY 10001
-
I thought I did read 34th st but I kept lookin here instead of the original post, kept thinking it was supposed to be in an email or something. Thnx.
-
Nametags with your AICN screenname on it, then we can all recognize each other at the screening and finally put a face to the names, and then when the lights go down and the movie starts, we can cuddle and snuggle during the scary parts, we can rub up on each other, we can go to the men's room and compare the size of each others' cocks. It'll be fun!!!
-
the minneapolis screening?
-
...and be OK w/ me pretending yo be him/her?
...bummed I didn't make it... -
So if you won its free right? or do you still have to pay for something??
-
isn't free lovely!
-
$%#$%% that.
-
Rickey is excited to see this flick! What other AICN regulars are going to be there? Check in, you bastards!
-
Looking forward to seeing everyone! What time are you guys planning on showing up??
-
ditto to Nortimus'question -- how early is everyone going? i'm thinking leave work early as possible and at least get a few drinks in first.
-
Cool...a female. Where should I meet you for drinks? We can sit together and make out during the trailers.
As for what time to get there, the nerds will be there around 6, and the cool people will be there after 7. -
well i sure hope i'm not the only female there -- i don't have that kind of energy to service 300 people :)
as for drinks - i used to work right on that block. Our go to dive bar was Tempest on 31st and 8th. great jukebox. if you like harcore rock, that is. -
Sitting in the theater! Trying to figure out which is the best seat to furiously masturbate in while watching this movie!
In all seriousness, Rickey plans on being in the area at around 6:30 if you bastards want to pregame. -
in the first row? I showed up 50 minutes early for Watchmen in Feb and I still wound up 3 rows from the front. I'm thinking lining up around 6:45 is a good idea...
-
if i end up in the fist 3 rows i am going to be a very unhappy camper..... unless one of you fine gents sitting further back will offer up their lap
-
I'm with Nortimus, I'll be there at like 6:30.
-
I like your style and your moxie.
-
i'll give you extra points if you pick me out of the line up later just out of pure guess :)
-
With nothing to go on except some talkback posts? Yeah, that shouldn't be difficult =)
-
yes - it may be difficult, but it will be fun.
-
Im number 8 on the list but 3 of my stupid coworkers who originally signed up can't go. Can I bring someone else? Guess I will figure out tonight..
-
And what can I redeem these points for? ^_^
-
You get the special popcorn with the hole cut into the bottom
-
ok, guess i will go back to focusing on work. boooooooo :)
-
Dammit. I never get the special popcorn! Then again I never win anything and I'm going to this screening so maybe it's my lucky Monday
-
this could be the monday that turns it all around for you
-
She'll be the one making out with a dude wearing a nametag that says Chakraborty. I'll work my magic during the pre-show drinks. Don't worry ...you can still have some of my special popcorn, too. I like to share.
-
Just show up with an ID at the box office?
-
that made me laugh, thanks. its nice that you would like to share. although if you guys are going to split the popcorn, maybe i should just leave you two to enjoy each other's company instead. i'll just watch...... 2 questions - one: are you really wearing a nametag? thats like the 2nd time that's been mentioned... and two: is anyone going to booze up before hand, and if so where/when?
-
I don't think I have a name tag, sadly. I'll be the dude in the black shirt, black sunglasses rocking a black messenger black (motif? Black). Also no time for me to pre-game, sadly, though if there will be drinks after, I'm done.
-
Dammit. Why can't you edit these things??
-
we are having all sorts of system issues at the moment so i may not have quite as much booze time as i had hoped..... i'll be coming straight from the office, so i will be dorking it up in brown slacks, white shirt and tan jacket. dont hold it against me :)
-
I couldn't get a response regarding a guest and don't want to risk it. So that's another one up for grabs I suppose.
-
Aug 10, 2009 1:35:56 PM CDT
Actually, I don't think I have time for pre-game drinks either
by chakraborty
Perhaps post. And if I don't find you guys or see anybody wearing nametags, I'll be looking for you. I'll be like:
"YACKBACKER?!! WHICH ONE OF YOU IS YACKBACKER?!! KARMAKITTEN?!! WHERE ARE YOU KARMAKITTEN?!! NORTIMUS?!! WHERE ARE YOU, NORTIMUS?!! I'VE GOT THE SPECIAL POPCORN, NORTIMUS!!! I CUT A HOLE IN THE BOTTOM FOR MY DICK LIKE WE SAID!!!"
You guys think I'm joking.... -
As if I wasn't excited before. Maybe I can find a sticky note somewhere and fashion a lame-ass nametag out of that. Though the idea of you yelling at the line is damn enticing...
-
if you are roaming the street yelling about dick popcorn, you will know me as being the one pissing myself laughing in the corner.
-
Honestly dude, they're going to lose the seat, so why not just go for it? Bring your ID, tell 'em who you are and that you've got a guest. Don't see why they'd have an issue with that (they damn well better not, cause that's what Rickey is doing).
-
My guest had a family emergency and won't be making it. So there is definitely at least one seat open. I have to think more people will be no shows also. I will specifically tell them who my guest is and that they aren't coming if it helps.
-
Empty seat next to you then? I call dibs with absolutely no nefarious purposes in mind. Promise. =)
-
You got it. I'll keep an eye out for the black figure with the black messenger bag. We should still buy that popcorn though.... :)
-
You got it. I'm sure it'll be...delicious.
-
what are the odds you'll be the only one in all black, lol. maybe you should reconsider the no frills name tag.
-
Is this happening? It was mentioned & now it looks like it will show here before the news of your screening even hits.
-
Aug 10, 2009 3:14:42 PM CDT
I gotta feelin' that whoever has the misfortune of meetin' Chakr
by al swearengen
is going to find that the cocksucker reeks of catpiss.
-
I never said all black....just shirt glasses and bag. I'll also be rocking the always-stylish denim blue jeans. Aka the moron who wore pants on the 90 degree day in NYC.
-
my mistake, i guess i just filled in the blanks. lol
-
i'm coming right from the office, remember. i'll be the least cool one there.
-
If you two end up hitting it off, and if you start dating and after a long relationship you two decide to get married and have kids....make sure you name your first born Chakraborty.
-
And a grey iphone! say hi!
-
So hot. No one has yelled my name yet or mentioned sharing popcorn. Sad.
-
how about we name the dog after you instead
-
I'll shout you out! I just got here too!
-
Say hello! We can't get a dog if we haven't met karma. Silly.
-
is that you with the dark nj trooper glasses on?
-
Quit being a stranger!
-
A free burger from Burger king!
-
Dammit I'm at 330 the brown doors about 15 feet behind bistro!
-
Yeah you win the line contest, but everyone loses when you don't say hi!
-
It looks like a mob behind me. Where are you!? :(
And where the hell is chakra!? -
The line is moving and now I'm a lot closer to bistro. No sign of chakra either! Are you on the inside yet?
-
Middle left when you walk in! Super comfy seats.
-
Is it packed in there yet? I can't stand sitting in the front!
-
Walking in the door now. Yes!
-
everyone loses when i say hi and you look confused. lol
-
Drinks and discussions.
-
that is all.
-
It's an accomplishment in that it is original and visionary. But the main character is a South African Steve Carrell- and that shit got really grating after the first ten minutes. THe alien deisgn was great though, but you'd think that an alien race with such amazing scientific knowledge would be treated a little better. Sure, we can't use their weapons, but what about their knowledge of the Universe? Propulsion? Energy? I think this was too heavy-handed with the allegory. And the depiction of Africans was downright silly/borderline racist! Ooops!
-
for the most original film I've seen this summer. Thanks again, Harry et al
-
was the apartheid allegory overwrought and heavy handed? what did you guys think of it over all? im really curious/excited for this movie.
-
While it was a little confusing at first where to line up, will we get passes, blah blah blah, once we were in the theater everything was copacetic.
The movie is quite good, not perfect, but rolls along at a jolly clip and I was never once bored. It's a familiar story with familiar tropes but it's very well done.
The special effects are excellent, the camera suffers from drunken running but I didn't mind having survived Cloverfield, and the main character gives an excellent performance.
So thank you AICN for putting this together and giving me and my friends a good reason to have a good time! -
Never registered before but have been a regular visitor for years and just have to thank the site for giving so many a chance to see an incredible film by a visionary young filmmaker. Instantly the best movie I've seen all year along with The Hurt Locker. One thing, not more than 10 seconds after leaving the theatre did I hear someone whining about the most insignificant minutiae that no sane person would care about. There are definitely a lot of people who visit this site that love film but the vocal minority can't get over the sound of their own B-grade film school analyses.
Anyway, one last thank you to AICN and for the love of all that is good please do more NYC events. Whoever handled the screening did a great job and made the check-in process a breeze. Make these people your NYC event czars. -
Great film, great time.
-
They came through, it was smooth sailing. Mind you it was hot as fucking balls waiting on that line, but AICN does not control the weather... yet.
-
Thanks AICN for the opportunity to see what's going to be one of my top five films of the year. Absolutely fantastic and well deserving of all the praise it's gotten.
-
it's a shame how terrible this summer has been for films... this is definitely a favorite of mine along with UP and Trek... and i'm no trekkie!
-
It was a good event ...more NYC events would be appreciated. The movie was great. The special effects were spot on in the sense that they weren't over done. They were used to tell the story and make everything appear real rather than be a distraction, and it's rare that a film accomplishes that these days.
The main character is interesting in the sense that he pretty much remains a cowardly self-serving person for most of the film. He has an arc, but it's largely driven by self preservation. But I think this was necessary in order to create sympathy for the aliens. That's another thing the movie accomplishes - the aliens are grotesque, and essentially look like large cockroaches, but you actually do end up feeling for them. . The movie has elements of Enemy Mine, Robocop, Iron Man, Aliens, The Fly, E.T., and many other greats, but ultimately the film is completely original and tells a good story. -
That's amazing. I saw this in NYC last night and the special effects accomplish what most big budget CGI films fail to do - it looks realistic without the CGI distracting from the film. Special effects are used to tell the story.
-
That last post was meant to be under Harrys review.....
-
Agree with what everyone said above. While it was hot as shit waiting outside, once we got moving, everything was supremely well organized..... spot on about the effects. They were a perfect compliment to the film instead of being the main event like so many movies seek to accomplish. My only regret is wasting so much money on shitty movies whereas I got to see this gem for free. Thanks again AICN.
-
On his best day, Steve Correll is a thousand times more annoying than the main character ever was. He was just some poor nerd who stepped into a heaping pile of shit and I thought that was one of the things that added to the realism of the movie. It wasn't that typical nonsense crap where we are supposed to believe some average joe turns into a superhero just because the world is crumbling around him. He was weak and self serving at times. I found his dorkiness way less abrasive than to pull a Michael Scott comparison.
-
Except for one person who was talking and luckily someone had to threaten his life in order for all to enjoy the film. It was an amazing movie, and have to agree with the Enemy Mine/The Fly comparisons, but it also is quite original.
Thanks to AICN and the team in NYC who put this show on. It was smooth sailing and even the cell phone situation was handled better than I've ever seen. Hopefully it won't be another 4 or so years between screenings here in NYC. -
I had similar thoughts about the aliens at first, but the prawns were described as "simply workers" in the movie and they were definitely portrayed as semi-intelligent beings, so I took all of that to infer that they had no secrets of the universe to reveal. I mean, if SA hadn't broken into their ship in the first place they'd probably all be dead from starvation while sitting on their own ship.Anyway, my two cents.
-
But oddly enough, I did look at the dude and think Christian Bale once or twice. And I agree with Karma - I felt he was a believable hero. I really liked the path his character took too. I found him annoying and unlikeable in the beginning of the movie, though I was cheering for him by the end, of course. Still, he did some pretty questionable/selfish things, but that in turn makes me wonder what anyone else would really do given the circumstances, and I can't really judge him for it. I give the movie a lot of credit for making me think so much after seeing it.

i was wondering if anyone else had the pleasure of being seated near that loudmouth. kudos again to the staff for squashing that before it became a major annoyance. agreed with the cell phones too. i was expecting mass confusion with all of it, but everything was pretty smooth sailing.
-
it didnt click until you just said it, but now that i think about it, he definitely had a Machinist Bale aura to him. nice one. lol
-
I know right! So glad someone else agrees. It didn't dominate the movie but the similarities are definitely there. Talk about one of those (many) topics that should be discussed and expanded on and conversed about, eh? ;)
-
and where were you last night? i was waiting for some grand announcement so we knew who you were? i saw no nametag, and no one screaming anyone's name. disappointment.
-
RIDICULOUS! It was so, so awesome. I did not see it coming when a lot of...er, things happened. But wow, when shit hit the fan, you could tell why certain things were in such high demand. And it all looked fantastic and believable too. Well, as believable as alien guns can be, anyway.

Yeah, I was never actually going to wear a nametag or call out everybody's screenname...I'm just a normal, humble person. I think I may have seen Nortimus, though. Where was the loud guy by the way? Was he at the back? As for the main character, I wouldn't call him a simple nerd who just fell into a bad situation. Even before he was put in a jam, his treatment of the aliens was pretty questionable, like the glee he took when performing the so-called "abortions". Even if they were looked upon as creatures at first, such treatment of animals would still be considered immoral. I was rooting for him as the story progressed, too, but I think you were supposed to hate him in the beginning, because it made his Seth Brundlefly experiences that much more enjoyable.

Over 300 winners and I wasn't one of them. I want to see this movie right now! Those of you going to the preview, DON'T SPOIL IT by revealing all the plot points, thank you very much. Carry on. http://nickleshi.blogspot.com

I am greatly disappointed. Not that you're humble, but that we didn't meet. You seem like good people and our pre-movie online antics were legendary.
Oh, and I agree with all of your D9 points too. Well said! -
i was mostly just being sarcastic. i didnt actually expect you to scream anyone's name out. though it made me laugh when you said you were going to....... the loud aholes were in the back to the left (if you are facing the chairs) they exchanged some words then one of the ushers ended up sitting back there to keep them quiet....... agreed, calling him a simple nerd isnt entirely accurrate. but i didnt get the annoying steve correll feeling like yakbacker did. i think he was just a somewhat regular guy and i felt that his actions as the story progressed were realistic in a way that main characters very rarely are..... i am a huge animal rights supporter and i agree his actions would be immoral even for animals. but that being said i did chuckle at the abortion comment. it spoke to my deviant side in a very specific way. am i alone in that? anyone? anyone?
-
No. You are most definitely not alone in that haha. And this is totally about to fall off the main page. I feel our discussions/analysis/ridiculous awesomeness is quickly coming to its end. Sad times.

we'll always have prauns

=) and numbers too. Don't forget numbers.

Thanks Harry... more NYC screenings would be greatly appreciated by us fancy city folk. A great time was had by all!
