Nice, just need the stadium pal:

Awesome, thanks for posting this astro, I havent seen any of those movies. Im def doing this.

edit to add: Tickets purchased!

[SamIAm]

Great find, Astro. Thanks.

If I'm already getting all-you-can-eat popcorn and soda, I wonder if they'll let me bring in a sandwich or two. 10 hours of movie is a long time, and I might want a meal that isn't covered in butter.

10+ hours in a movie theater seat with unlimited popcorn? Why am I thinking I do not want hemorrhoids & the runs at the same time.....lol

i bought our tickets online as well. definitely going to watch babel, the queen, and iwo jima. i confirmed with my local theater that you're allowed to come and go as you please. seeing the departed again would be great, but i think the slot should be left open just incase we get sick of the movie theater and want to stretch our legs. we've already seen little miss sunshine, and have zero interest in watching it again. for 3-4 movies it's still a great deal. marathon events are fun every now and then.

WTF there's 5 in Dallas, 5 in Houston, but none in Austin? [censored] RIGGED.

An entire day in a movie theater seems like it would be uncomfortable. I'd much rather do this at home.

3 of these movies will be out on DVD before the end of this month. I have no idea about The Queen or Letters from Iwo Jima, though.
