Good idea, but it would be more of a review than a preview, wouldn't it? :lol:

Okay... Just some food for thought with regards to seeing the movies in the comfort of the cinemas... It'll mean booking one whole hall for the total duration of 6 movies... Can we afford it? And what are we going to do before and after the movies? :?: :?: :?:

Ooh a D&D would definitely force me to think about doing that Padme dress. Hmm, but D&Ds tend to be more on the expensive side, and there're lots of broke people. Students especially. *wisenod*

Still it would be something different from the norm...

We could always do a fancy dress D&D where attendees must dress up as a charactor from Star Wars.....and no Dranoel, Star Wars Fan just don't count as a charactor

We could get hold of the caterer for Science Centre to prepare a SW theme'd dinner.

i agreed with don. private viewing at own home is one thing, but watching SW at public theatre, with or without payment, may be touchy with copyright ... just my 2 cents :roll:

First, the following decision need to be made:

1) Which approach to take?

a) If the intention is an opportunity to suit up like Star Wars characters, then it needs to be public in nature, then approaching a library or a community centre might be an approach since this cut down costs on renting a place and publicity is there. Having an air-cond environment will reduce the discomfort of the costumers. This approach is more for external than internal. I doubt approaching Science Centre is an idea since Star Wars exhibition is over.

b) if the suiting up is not important, then a close, get-to-know-each-other approach can be taken. In this case, some one here with access to condo facilities could help and everyone chip in to defray the costs. Where F&B is concern, I do not think catering although the easiest approach is a good idea because often you end up with insufficient food. Here we can show movies or whatever.

I believe the decision on which approach to take is important, then direct your energies in that direction.

I would want the hype to be a year-long thing for next year... And the D & D would be the mother of all activities... That's one of the reasons why we'll be having more publicities in the next few months to increase the fan base and have more people attend the dinner function to split costs further...

Setting aside the logistics and costs involved, I like the idea. What date are we looking at? May 2007?

Tentatively, May would be significant. We'll need to discuss in greater detail...

How about some kind of tour? travel from one CC to another CC or travel from one library to another library?

yup,gd idea. can also promote this site. there may be some star wars fans who don't know abt this site,so maybe we can widen the range of members here and i'm sure it'll be a great treat for the public too.
