I saw the movie twice yesterday. The first time at 11:20 AM at AMCs Highland Ranch 24 . About 12 of us were there. Eleven got up and left at The End as if they couldn't get out fast enough. One old dude mumbled to his wife "crappy and weird".
The second at the UA9 and IMAX in Denver could not have been more different. A local radio station KLZ 560 had three hosts Kris Cook, John Rush, and Ken Clark (He also attended the Las Vegas premier) doing a remote from 5:00 to 7:00. I guessed there were more than 50 in the audience. We applauded during and after the movie. Rather then leaving the audience lingered discussing ASP3. This is clearly the best of the three. I've downloaded the sound track and cant wait to get the blu-ray. I hope it garners enough revenue for Atlas Productions to do a ten part mini-series. Well done!

    Thanks for the report, 1776! About 20 people saw it with us in Austin at the AMC Barton Creek at 5:30 on Saturday the 13th. As soon as it ended, they left. I said out loud - loud enough to fill the room - "Real producers would stay to watch the credits," but they did not. I blame common culture. My wife and I always stay to watch all of the credits of every movie. Most people are not so intelligent. Even our Conservative comrades think that actors make movies.

      Thanks for posting this Mike, we do that too.

      Whenever we buy a blue ray, the first thing I do is to WATCH all the special features except for the commentaries, then we watch the movie, and follow that with whatever commentaries are on the disk. My kids HATE it, asking us when the "movie" will start. Perhaps is my artist soul or an unfulfilled desire to know everything about that craft, I'm not sure the why. Whatever the reason, I feel that after I see the features I have a better understanding of what was involved with it's production. AND I know just how long and hard all those people who make movies actually work.

      And I appreciate all that goes into making a great "special features" section on a DVD too. Did you here that Scott? :)
