My friend Beth talked me into going to the midnight Harry Potter premiere last night, so that was fun. She went by the theater around 8pm to pick up our (pre-bought) tickets, in case of crowds later.
Beth (on the phone): I'm at the mall getting our tickets. Just so you know. There are already a bunch of people here wandering around in graduation robes with sticks. It's awesome. Also, they said that all 12 showings are sold out.
So we went over early, anticipating costumed crowds and excitement. Instead, there were lots of happy, mostly early-twenties-aged people in street clothes wandering about, and no lines. Of course, neither of us dressed up, so we shouldn't really complain, but still! (We had a camera and everything!) However, the film was a lot of fun, and there were a few really good costumed movie-goers, and now I've been to a film premiere. (And then I slept in on purpose and went to work late, which is fine because they don't care when I show up).
