OH.
MY.
GOD.
I'M SEEING HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF-BLOOD PRINCE OPENING NIGHT IN D-BOX!!! AND THEN I'M SEEING IT AGAIN AT THE END OF THE MONTH IN IMAX!!!! OHEMGEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
Okay, so I was going to order my tickets for HBP tonight, and then found out that the theater that we were going to go see the movie at was sold out of tickets. I started looking around at other theaters, and the closest one showing it at midnight that still had tickets available was the theater at the Mall of America. I decided to just order our tickets then, when I realized they had another, different showing of it in addition to the main one. I knew it wasn't the IMAX one, so I checked into it, and the extra one is a D-BOX showing!! There's only five theaters in the US and one in Canada that are doing D-BOX showings, and this happens to be one of them. So, despite the fact that tickets cost $7.50 more than standard showings, we're going to go see the D-BOX one. I'M SO FLIPPIN' EXCITED!!!!
If you're unaware of what D-BOX is, it's basically like a moving chair type thing that reacts in time with what's going on onscreen. It's looks ridiculously awesome. Here's their website: http://www.d-box.com/
Oh, and in addition to this, I'm also seeing the IMAX showing of it at the end of the month. Schiffler (my former English teacher) is taking me to it as part of my graduation gift (the other part being a super sweet copy of Pride and Prejudice that she gave me already). That ones going to be awesome, too!! Apparently, there's 3D footage at the beginning and the end of it, as opposed to just the end in this one. God, I'm SO FREAKING EXCITED FOR THIS MOVIE!!!!!! *SQUEEEEEE* Excuse me while I melt into a puddle of fangirl goo!
Oh yeah, and did I mention that I got a free download of "Friends and Love," the new "single" off of the Half-Blood Prince soundtrack for pre-ordering tickets? Because I did. And it's great. :DDDD *DIES*
OH YEAH, and did I also mention that I bought like a million dollars of Harry and the Potters merchandise? Because I did! They had a giant $5 CD blowout sale (which I think is actually still going on, if you're interested), and since I only had the Scarred for Life 7" and their Enchanted Ceiling EP from the first Wizard Rock EP of the month club (in addition to two HatP t-shirts, a couple of buttons, a tour poster, a toothbrush I got for free for writing an essay on an old summer tour, and a bookmark, mind), I decided to buy the rest of their albums! I ended up buying the A Magical Christmas compilation that they're featured on, Harry and the Potters, Voldemort Can't Stop the Rock!, Harry and the Potters and the Power of Love, the In the Cupboard EP (from the new Wizard Rock EP of the month club, which I didn't join this year), and their new 2-Disc, limited edition album Priori Incantatem (which was the full price of $10 and not part of the sale, actually, but whatevs). I also ended up buying the Unlimited Enthusiasm Zine, since I wasn't able to get it at their tour last year because I ran out of money. :P But anyway, that was only $3, and it also came with a full set of 8 HatP postcards from their summer tour last year, too. AND, in addition to all that, they actually ended up throwing in a bookmark, two buttons, and six UEE nametags from last year's tour FOR FREE, probably because I bought so much shit. SO HOORAY AND HOLY SHITZ FOR ALL THAT!!!
FINALLY, Nancy Mai, the coolest person on the entire planet and a very dear friend of mine, made me POTTER PUPPET PALS!!!!!! OHEMGEE!!!!!! She made me a Harry one and a Snape one, and is in the process of making me a Dumbledore one, too. SO HOORAY FOR THAT!!!!
SO YEAH, THAT'S PRETTY MUCH IT FOR AWESOME HARRY POTTER POST! WORD!!!
I'm a lonely boy
I live beneath the staircase
My cousin is real fat
He makes my life a sad state
The Dursleys are my guardians
They are so mean and evil
If only I had some magic powers
Surely I could make them tremble
- I Am A Wizard, Harry and the Potters
