Cathy:
I think I can understand and accept WB's decision to postpone 
the movie and honestly I think the anticipation is making this 
movie the one I am most excited to see.

I also have to admit that I am not a crowd person at all. I 
never go to see any movie the opening week or two or three 
even, but I think I will be making an exception and ?seeing 
this movie the first week. :)

I had the most wonderful experience in seeing The Order of The 
Phoenix. I had taken my daughters to the local theatre to see 
a free movie that they offer on Wednesdays at 10:00 in the 
morning. Well when we got there I noticed that at 10:30 OOP 
was playing. So I bought tickets to that instead and honestly 
there was only one other family in the whole theatre for it. 
I had no idea it was coming out on a Wednesday, let alone at 
10:30 in the morning. I just so happened to be there and that 
was luck. It was the first time I had ever seen a movie the 
day it came out and the first showing too. I was very proud of 
that.

I dislike crowds as there always seems to be someone talking 
throughout the movie. I don't go to the movies often at all 
and when I do I really want to enjoy it without any 
interruptions. I have found that if I go during a weekday at 
an earlier time I can avoid this. 

Hugs,
Cathy
