Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2

[raj101]

i aim to see it just once, so theres lots to wrap up from the previous movies before i go. This works as well just in case the film does turn out to be crap, so that I only need to see it once for continuity purposes, certainly the film makers are well aware that they dont need to put in effort to make a good final movie in order to rake in the money (a la Pirates of the Caribbean) and the odds are that they have probably have done a hash job, plus the book is largely viewed as the worst one of the series, so I wont expect too much, which does help if you dont expect a good movie if you get me?

However I am hoping it will be one of the better movies though, fingers crossed, with an special effect heavy ending as good as the other films manage, a proper battle royale is all i really ever wanted from wizard-magic type films, at the Kingston IMAX, no less.

I heard on the radio that there were 7000 fans camped out in preparation of the premiere.

There were about 2300 people in front of me and the security people said there were near 10,000 people lining up for the wristbands. I hope i can get a decent spot tomorrow!

Pulled myself away from the #HarryPotter cast & the free bar - anyone camping in Trafalgar Sq: apparently some of the cast are on their way!

One of the presenters for tomorrow says they are estimating about 18000 people tomorrow.
Dont know his name but he was on Loose Women today talking about how he would look in 3D.

Awesome evilzadi, stick with it! Hows the vibe on the queue? Are you making new friends, chatting with enthusiasts? :) When I queued for Star Wars premiere tickets, the time went so quickly despite the overnight sleeps as everyone was just cheerful and funny. I hope you're having the same fun.

Here's a thought:

When they say "Seat numbers will be allocated on arrival", does that mean as people arrive? ie they will give out seat numbers earlier (say 5.30pm) but the doors wont open until 6pm. Do we think we can get our names marked off the guest list and get our tickets earlier but then come back once the screen is open?

I took the whole day off work for this preview (and that's 2 different jobs, one in the evening and one on the day!) so I will go there very early, probably 5pm and hang around and find out what their process will be. I will update on this thread how the seats are allocated and if we can have our tickets and come back later etc.

I would have loved to stay overnight but I didn't want to on my own so I will be leaving for Trafalgar square again in the early hours of the morning, and hopefully be able to squeeze in a decent spot.
