Jayne: That's a good idea. Good idea. Tell us where the stuff's at so I can shoot you. Mal: Point of interest? Offering to shoot us might not work so well as an incentive as you might imagine.

I can't even.

Worker absenteeism for last night and today's showings of Episode III: Revenge of the Sith is expected to cost NYC millions and U.S. employers $627-million, according to The Globe and Mail

They should invoice George. That can help the movie lose money, on paper.

That's hysterical. Also, they're pikers. I never missed work because of midnight LotR screenings.

Word. I'm at work today and functional. Okay, I thought it was Friday all morning, but still, I got here.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'm still trying to make a Batman Begins viewing plan. I don't suppose that'll be having midnight screenings.

Art Crawl!!!

Cashmere - you didn't have to take time off to view the day-long lotr marathon?

Because, the Chicago one started late Tuesday morning and ending early Wednesday morning. I took Wednesday off too. This allowed me to see a regular showing of RotK Wednesday afternoon.

Oh! Apology for GG overrun:

the network will broadcast the entire "Gilmore Girls" finale again some time in the next two weeks

If I only had a brain...

Worker absenteeism for last night and today's showings of Episode III: Revenge of the Sith is expected to cost NYC millions and U.S. employers $627-million, according to The Globe and Mail

My husband's company is taking everybody to see the movie on company time. Wonder if that counts as absenteeism?

Now tagless for your comfort.

Cashmere - you didn't have to take time off to view the day-long lotr marathon?

Yup. That's the vacation day I referred to. But I just took one day.

My husband's company is taking everybody to see the movie on company time.

That's the kind of company I would want to work for.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Those absenteeism numbers sound like complete horseshit.

Maybe they're just trying to set George Lucas up for a class action law suit.

The first Tim Burton one did, because that's when I saw it. Don't know about any of the later ones. You should be able to check at an on-line ticket place.
