Harry Potter 5 midnight showing?

Alright, so I bought tickets to the midnight showing, but when do you think I should arrive at the theater??

I went to the first showing (8:00) of PotC, and there was a line about 1 1/2 hours before the movie started, and the only reason we got good seats was because we cut the line to meet our friends. I also went to a showing on the opening day of PotC 2, and there was lines for two showings about an hour apart!! That's pretty much the line trends at my theater.

Basically, I've been to first showings before, but I don't know when lines start, and I'd like to be one of the first people there. Note: At my theater, you can't get in line until after you bought tickets, so I don't have the reassurance of people still having to buy. Help plz?

I would give the movie theater a call and ask them what time u should come. I fthey dont have it where u can talk 2 a person maybe if it is possible just stop buy and ask. If none of that works I would go 2 it about 3 1/2 hours (or more) before the movie. It may be a long wait but then u will get good seats. Bring music to listen 2 or a good book 2 read. Hopefully u r going w/ friends so it is not 2 boring. Have fun @ the movie. I wanted 2 c it tonight but I get 2 see it Saturday.

All I can tell you is this, when we bought our tickets we were told if we showed up 1 hour before showtime, we would be the very LAST people in line! Good luck!
Hi everyone, Im Joel from Bolivia and I have already seen the best Harry Potter movie yet. (Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix).

Here in La Paz Bolivia the premiere of this movie was the midnight of July 10 - 11. Meaning that the movie began at 00:01 a.m. of Wednesday July 11. It is great to see a movie here in Bolivia before anyone else in America. For you all to know, the time in Bolivia is the same ET in USA.

Im obviously, HAPPY and I have to say that it is a HUGE movie. The best moments for me were when Dumbledore escapes from his office with the help of Fawkes, I really liked Grawp and Kreacher. But I didn't like the things they changed from the books, for example in the movie Cho Chang is the one who reveals the location of the Dumbledore's Army practices and then Severus Snape says that Cho told the secret to Dolores because they gave her Veritaserum. Actually the movie is too short, you never get to See Ron's father in the hospital and in the department of Misteries you just get to see the Prophecies chamber and the Dead chamber and you never get to see the other chambers. But I really loved Luna, she is just like I imagined her. and you never get to see Fierenze in the movie.

And Sirius dies fast too, I mean there is not such a long battle and Bellatrix looks like a crazy woman more than a witch.

There are a lot of other cuts of the book, and I can say that I will be HARD to understand every second if you haven't read the book yet, because they want to give so much information in such a short time.

But after all It is a great movie, has a lot of action. I wish that they had included when Sirius is almost caught by Umbridge in the Gryffindor common room fireplace because you just see him talking trough the fire and just like a gosth, not like ashes (like previous movies)

There is no Quidditch match In which Gryffindor defeats Slytherin. And of course we never get to see Neither Gilderoy Lockhart in St. Mungo's nor Neville with his gran visiting his parents.

We never see Rita Skeeter writting for the Quibbler.

and of course I wish they didn't cut the part when McGonagall is stunned. but they did.... OUCH!!! of course everyone was expecting to see that.

Anyway is a good movie... See it as soon as you can.

bye
If you have a midnight showing, you have a 6 o'clock line start. If you want to get in the door, within the 1`st 200 seats, be in line by 9.

If your willing to wait 1-1 1/2 an hour when you get there already, why stand in line an additional 2-4 hours to save...an hour on actually purchasing the ticket ;) Seems like bad math to me.
when i went to see goblet at midnight, there were people waiting since 9am that morning. i arrived about 3 hours early and ate dinner in line and i was still about 50 people or so back. i guess it all depends on your location, but I'm arriving about 3 hours before with snacks and my DS lite. =+)
