I actually saw this the other day, too, and thought the same thing. I saved it and wanted to compare it to what we had.
Speaking of Star Wars...
I know you guys have all kinds of different games going all kinds of different nights, but this Wednesday I believe Rose is going to her folks again. She will be back Saturday. I don't want to impose on anyone's existing campaign, but if there's a midnight showing of Mummy 3 or anything else going on this week, I would be interested.
I know, Mummy 3 is probably not on the top of anyone's list, but it's the Thursday night I have.

I'm not looking forward to a midnight showing of the Mummy Returns, but, [put upon sigh], I guess I can go. Seriously, I'd be fine with going to a midnight show if it's the only time Movie Dave can make it. So, here's a head scratcher. I just checked movietickets.com for showtimes at the Mayfaire. They have a 12:01 am showing listed for Thursday, and regular showtimes for Friday. Now, the whole point of a 12:01 am showtime would seem to be to remove any ambiguity of what day a midnight showing is on (if you say midnight Thursday, do you mean Wednesday/Thursday midnight, or Thursday/Friday midnight?). So, 12:01 am Thursday should mean Thursday morning (Wednesday/Thursday midnight). But, there are no other showtimes listed for Thursday, and, since midnight showings are usually the midnight of the day they are released (so a Friday release is usually 12:01 am Friday), that would seem to indicate the showing is actually 12:01 am Friday (Thursday/Friday midnight), not 12:01 am Thursday. Anyway, if anyone can figure it out, yeah, I'd be up for it.

I could also go Friday night if you guys aren't gaming, or Saturday first showing before they get back in town.
Of course, if your not gaming Friday night I could game, too.
Oh, I might miss Tuesday also, since they're leaving Wednesday.

I'm up for whatever. I would prefer a friday night showing, however I get off work at 6:30. Also, that does rely on the fact of whether or not we game this friday. If you can't make it on tuesday Dave, I will post a webcap. As per norm, I will still call you later today, and see if you can make a carpool, allbeit that I read your post, but I will still extend the invite.
Edit: I also side with Game Dave on this one. I'm not extremely stoked to see the mummy and therefore wouldn't really be willing to see a midnight showing (with work at 7 in the morning). But I would be game for any other time.
Edit 2: i was curious as to why allbeit was spelled incorrectly, and apparently in the "conjunction" of 'all', 'be', and 'it' you drop one 'l' from all and are left with 'albeit'. wierd...but my fact of learning for the day.
