(1st of August) Film Festival - Vexille

By Willuknight. 29/07/08, 11:52 am

Quote :: The latest CGI blockbuster from the team behind Appleseed ups the ante with its state-of-the-art animation and explosive big screen action, while borrowing liberally from science fiction stalwarts like Isaac Asimov and Frank Herbert. In the year 2077 Japan has become a mysterious isolationist nation. No outsiders have set foot inside the rogue state for over ten years and a powerful computer-generated shield prevents spying eyes. Suspecting the country of pursuing dangerous experiments in biotechnology, the United Nations despatch Vexille and her crack team of commandos to covertly breach the shields and gather needed intelligence. — MM. \"Vexille offers up flawless production design, a Paul Oakenfold soundtrack to rack up the video-game vibe, and enough mayhem to placate even the most jaded fan: this is anime for the high-def generation.\" — Justin Bower, Empire

In Japanese with English subtitles
Running time is 109 mins

For those of you who have seen appleseed (some of you watched it with me at JCCC), you\'ll know it to be a masterpiece of art with a compelling storyline and interesting plot development (and giant fighting robot canon druids). Based on the sucess of appleseed, i\'m sure this movie will be great, so - i\'m organizing a group to go and watch it.

Where: Rialto, Cnr Moorhouse Avenue &, Durham Street

**Guest** Guest

oh.. ah.. i was just talking to Riven and she said she was going to buy tickets now... do we need to buy them now or can we leave it?

By Mandie_Chan. 30/07/08, 07:19 am

shes buying tickets for something else...

**Guest** Guest

ohhhh.... ok thanks.

By Katie. 30/07/08, 10:36 am

I'd like to come. I recently watched Paprika, so I'm totally pumped for another top-notch anime film.

My momz is at work so I can't 100% confirm, but I'll do my best to get there.

Oh, is there an estimated run time?

By **Riven_**. 30/07/08, 11:28 am

eheheheh... sorry ammon! I didn't realise I'd caused confusion!

I'm going to see Evangelion 1.0 on Wednesday 13th. (at 8.45pm.... DX)

By Willuknight. 30/07/08, 12:12 pm

I'll ring up tonight with some rough numbers and see if we can get a row or something held.

Running time is 109 mins

By Katie. 30/07/08, 12:20 pm

That's not too bad- thanks. =)

By Willuknight. 30/07/08, 02:32 pm

ok I just rang up, they said that there are still plenty of seats, and that they haven't had a lot of people booking for it.

Shall we just show up on the night and hope they have 8 or so seats closish/in decent spots?

Otherwise we'd have to go in and pay for the seats because they don't do phone bookings.

I'd say there probably a good chance there will still be seats left by friday ^^

By Zorlich. 30/07/08, 02:35 pm

Booking is always a good idea though! just in case

By Katie. 31/07/08, 12:49 am

Booking would be safer, but what time were you planning to meet there beforehand? If it's early enough it might not be a problem.

By Mandie_Chan. 31/07/08, 04:10 am

yea you could always meet up earlier and buy tickets, them have tea together and then go to the movie ^_^

then again... maybe not lol

By Willuknight. 31/07/08, 05:22 am

I can't get away from work until later, so 5:45 is about the earliest i can guarentee to make it.

I doubt a lot is going to change in 24hrs, and the entire theater certainly won't sell out.

By Mandie_Chan. 31/07/08, 07:25 am

true true...

i still wanna come!!!

T.T

how much is it for tickets?
*ponder*

**Guest** Guest

im sure you know to look at the first post before asking how much...

By Mandie_Chan. 31/07/08, 07:47 am

ooooo....

thankies ^_^

By Katie. 31/07/08, 09:15 am

15 minutes or so before hand should be okay. You're right, if there hasn't been a buttload of interest so far, it's unlikely to sell out or anything.

I don't know how I will recognize you though. xD If Mandie or Riven are going, I'll know them, but I don't know if Amanda still is...?

By Willuknight. 31/07/08, 05:44 pm

We shouls be the only group of people standing around being loud Very Happy

just look for the tall guy with glasses, that will be me.
