While we’re awaiting for the you-know-what as one of the hotly-anticipated biggest blockbuster movie in this summer (or winter, if you’re from the southern hemisphere) cinema-goers will ever see, I just checked our movie times in New Zealand’s cinemas, and it turns out we do have advanced screenings for it and they’re scheduled on the 23rd June. This is really exciting! I could hardly wait to hear what my friends are planning to do as the movie date approaches. Â The only disadvantage with advanced screenings is that there’s only one session on the days before its official release date ie 24th, and it’s usually pretty late, like around 11′ish pm. Â Meaning if it’s a working day on that very same day the advance screening is on, I’ll come in to work the next day looking really cr*p and it’d be hard to get over the uncomfortable feeling of late-night sleeping after coming back watching the awesome film. Â Moreever, the movie price ticket is generally more expensive than the usual blockbuster prices as far as I know, like an extra NZD $5.00 (I used to work in the movie industry so I know the pricing structure worked). Â Urghhh…
But I guess that’s what you get if you’re willing to watch before everybody else in the country does, for a small extra fee (and lacking hours of sleep).  Anywho, for those who are looking forward to seeing it and reside in New Zealand, here’s the SkyCity Cinemas’ link to prebook.  In meantime, check out the new video clip (warning: SPOILERS!!!) of the film from AceShowbiz.com, which was submitted by Germans as part of television promo of the film.  Nice.  Are we all hyped yet?

Great. Likewise for us downunder ie NZ. We have ‘advanced screenings’ happening here at some selected movie theatres. Meaning people still get to watch them before everybody else does, however, it’s very late like half an hour before midnight. So you have to have plenty of energy to be up all night watching them. It’s gonna be awesome for sure.
