Oscar Short Films Swanking - February 2008 - Page 7

innerSpaceman · 02-12-2008, 04:45 PM

Yeah, I'm not thrilled at the prospect of long-ass shorts.

Ugh, why can't we do 1:45 and 4:00? Or should we just do a group lunch first and then the movies after? Followed by cocktails or something. But dinner starting at 9:30-10:00 seems rather lame.

Because some of us are unavailable for an afternoon screening. The original plan was, as stated, lunch followed by late afternoon screening. We cannot make a 1:45 show.

BarTopDancer · 02-12-2008, 05:17 PM

Perhaps we can do one, or the other then dinner. It would be nice to do both, but that's making for a very late dinner/evening.

Ghoulish Delight · 02-12-2008, 05:21 PM

Steve's late lunch pre-show and post show cocktails sounds like the best idea. We wouldn't be able to attend the lunch, but that would allow for longer group social gathering while still letting more people make both sets of films as well as leave opportunity for a post gathering for the night owls. Just make sure you eat a big lunch or bring an intermission snack, eh?

I know I'm planning on seeing them both no matter what.

LSPoorEeyorick · 02-12-2008, 05:37 PM

Well, yeah, I'm definitely seeing them both. Those who only want to see one can, for sure - but I'm only up for the pre-lunch and post-hangout... and the sack-lunch snack in between!

BarTopDancer · 02-12-2008, 05:39 PM

Where we meeting for lunch, and at what time?

Not Afraid · 02-12-2008, 08:25 PM

So, where do we buy our advanced tickets? And, how much are they?

Sohrshah · 02-12-2008, 09:00 PM

Yeah, who what where when ect?

innerSpaceman · 02-12-2008, 09:21 PM

Lisa, you can't ask a ticket question until you select a restaurant for us ... or at least present us with 3 Pasadena dining candidates.

Hey, I'm off Event Coordination duties this year. I've done enough.
