mistaken_plane Posted May 30, 2005 Share Posted May 30, 2005 Just to contradict some things that have been said. Â You do NOT have to be there by 10am. And the barriers will NOT be up the day before. This never happens, except for the exceptional ones like Star Wars, where people were waiting overnight. It is a massive health and safety risk, and the barriers will likely go up in the afternoon. Â Collateral was NOT that busy, I arrived at 2pm and had the entire row to myself for an hour or so, I had one friend who arrived at 6pm and got Toms auto fine. Â Its a Sunday, so will be busier early for sure, and there is also a lot of press around it. That said for a Johnny Depp appearance on a Sunday I arrived 3pm and was fine too. Â If you want to be safe arrive by midday, and dont be put off by others saying if youre not there by 6am 3 months before you wont get anything. Tom is thorough and will get to most people: a 2nd row spot and an autograph is better than nothing at all! Â It doesnt matter too much where you stand with Tom, for most premieres there are key spots, but as he hits most places anywhere is fine. Â Take whatever you want, there are no rules! Â As for rude people, its more to do with the premiere than the usual fans. When someone like Orlando Bloom does a premiere then fan girls turn up who dont know the correct manners for these things!

13rufus Posted May 30, 2005 Share Posted May 30, 2005 you say for most premieres there are key spots, which is the best place? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mistaken_plane Posted May 30, 2005 Share Posted May 30, 2005 Couldnt say now. Things have changed. Used to be near the press but sometimes now they chuck you out of there. Â Opposite doors is best, but people get there stupid early for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyriderz20 Posted May 30, 2005 Share Posted May 30, 2005 sounds like a cool idea. Id love to go. Â What times would u need to be there for? Â I dont check the forum much so can any1 who can help, msn me on ianjpaget@hotmail.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mistaken_plane Posted May 30, 2005 Share Posted May 30, 2005 Theyre on the westminster website.  No one knows whos is attending except the press.  Attendance? Usually a few hundred, maybe 1000 fans will show up depending on the movie and who is in it  As for meeting and times? Read the frickin thread people. How lazy are some people? No Im not going to email you, cos youre lazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moromir Posted May 31, 2005 Share Posted May 31, 2005 I will be going as soon as Tom Cruise issues a full public apology to Brooke Shields....

TommyT Posted May 31, 2005 Share Posted May 31, 2005 i really don't understand how he has done anything wrong??? the drugs are dangerous! And leaving postnatal depression untreated is dangerous too. Cruise's suggestion of vitamin therapy is controversial at the very least, and somewhat related to his scientology beliefs. Unless Mr Cruise has relevant medical qualifications in the treatment of postnatal depression, he should have kept his mouth shut, in my humble opinion. Additionally his question "where has her career gone?" is a bit rich. Presumably he either knows she has a lead role in a major West End musical (in which case he is somewhat arrogantly dismissing that as worthless - care to try doing it yourself Tom?) or he is ignorant of the fact (and again should have kept his trap shut).

When someone like Orlando Bloom does a premiere then fan girls turn up who dont know the correct manners for these things! you can only guess, I am just going by what I am told. I go to almost every premiere and my friend was there at 8am and said by 10am there was no room and it was 3 deep. It depends who you talk to. I guess i am talking about in front of the cinema.  For collateral apparently the barriers were put up really early!  I actually think its a massive safety risk not to have the barriers up early - because this causes a big rush for the barriers and people get bruised and injured. I was also told at kingdom that if I said I was squished at all then i would be removed from the crowd (I could barely breath). What they could have done was to move the crowd behind me.  Also as well as the Tom Cruise fans you will have Steven Spielberg fans (or both, like me!)  You can only guess, the ones you think are gonna be busy never are (like finding neverland, what was going on) and then you have ones like Sin City where there are masses of people and they did not put the barriers up till 4pm! (V,dangerous)  I personally am not taking any risks, I am gonna stay in London and get there for 8am. When you are travelling from afar, I always find its better to wait an extra few hours secure in your space than get there late and it be a wasted trip!  I also personally would never stand on 2nd row as I do not feel safe. I;m not very strong and get moved around easily and thus get really badly bashed in 2nd row as I need something to hold onto.  Rickman and mine first premiere was Harry Potter and I got whacked on the head by a book and almost knocked over!

Â i think everyone will agree that the HP POA prem was horrible. but at the same time it was amazing. it all depends on your attitude towards it.... because i know some people who wouldnt touch a premiere with an extra long barge pole.... Â still.... i guess im a little insane to love the busy ones. and i will be arriving about the same time as poppy i should think. 8am sounds good to me.

mistaken_plane Posted June 1, 2005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 Each to their own. Â Ive only once been there at 8am, and that was for Star Wars! Sin City wasnt that busy either, but once people start to stand others will stop to see. We had no one behind us till 5pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
