First I have to say Thank you Thank you Thank you to two amazing people. Susie and Ashlee. Suz for calling me about an extra ticket for a the pre-showing of Eclipse (thanks All-State!), and for Ash who is a lifesaver and watched my kids for a few hours so I could go to 3pm showing of Eclipse!!
The night before, I was very lucky to get a call from my friend Susie who offered the ticket to this show. When she asked if I wanted to go with her, I was thinking, "pre-show, before all the midnight movie goers?...I will make this work, count me in!" Luckily I have a wonderful friend who has kids the same age as mine and she was more than happy to help me when I called bribing her with baked goodies. :)
All State Insurance hosted the preview shows of Eclipse at Jordan Commons. The crowds were crazy, but I was very impressed with how they handled and took care of their customers at a movie theatre. Eventually I met my friend among the crowds (my bag full of treats to share), we got our VIP lanyards and our goodie bag from All State, and then sat in our seats -- second row up front, I could almost touch those abs. :) Since this was a preview showing, we had Summit Entertainment security there monitoring for people who may be video tapping or taking pictures during the film. neat huh. ;) it's the little things that i love.
I really can not tell you how I would rate the movie. For everyone it is different. I enjoyed the movie, they included one my favorite part in the book (tent scene!), but I would have liked to seen some more....anyway. Go see for yourself if you're interested. Me? I have another pair of tickets for tomorrow afternoon that I won from Kneaders Bakery! I never win anything, and even though I've seen the movie, I can not pass up winning tickets to Eclipse. Going to see it again tomorrow! Looking forward to it again.
What's that phrase? Why be greedy, I want both! (i.e. love both Edward and Jacob)

SO SO SO JEALOUS!!!!! You are so lucky. I'm still begging Scott to go see it with me. SOMETIME in the near future. Did I mention that I'm jealous.
Computers hate me! I just left you a comment, but it didn't save it. Anyway, you are one lucky girl. I work in the high-rise building behind the theaters, and I knew something was happening with Eclipse since it was so packed when I left work. I'm going with my coworkers today at 2:35pm. It should be fun! Your comment about the 2nd row made me laugh. Most people would be bummed sitting so close to the screen but not you!
What I don't understand is that you are going to see the movie like 6 times in 5 days.... No one loves it that much.
only twice in 24 hours. ;) and both times the tickets were free. wahahaha. love you Jared.
