As we speak, Samwise is watching The Two Towers.

Let me refresh your memory. The thread was about someone (in this case me) watching The Two Towers before the official premiere. Then you say:

"You can get it on DVD for $1 in parts of China..."

1) I don\'t think that\'s true (for many reasons)
2) That would be piracy

"big deal..." - part of the reason I said "flamebait". As you have said in other threads most of the things you say are for your own amusement. In this case I just don\'t care for such a statement, but to each his own.

1- http://www.cnn.com/2002/SHOWBIZ/Movies/12/09/sproject.ca02.film.rings.reut/index.html

2- Yes it would, but the point was seeing it early is no big deal, since people on the internet and anyone in China pretty much can as well.

I\'m sorry if my \'big deal\' statment made you feel less special, but I didn\'t state anything that wasn\'t true, or attack you in any personal way, YOU chose to take this as something personal. For the record, it wasn\'t personal, and I\'m sorry if it came off personal, but I\'m not sorry I posted it.

I\'m sorry if my \'big deal\' statment made you feel less special

Don\'t worry, you didn\'t. I mean, it\'s not like I was the only one in the theater - some 200 other people saw it too. Still, I\'d rather watch the final cut of such an epic movie in a new THX-certified theater on a huge screen than on a 17" monitor; or a butched up VHS copy on DVD for that matter. But to each his own.

YOU chose to take this as something personal

No I didn\'t take it personally. Very few people on this board can have that effect on me. You\'re not one of them. I just didn\'t care much for your post.

I\'ll watch the real DVD... I was just saying people saw it. I\'m sorry.
