Ok first off, yes the movie will likely suck, but I wanna watch it for the cars and drifting...

back to my question: anyone know if there is a private screen for scion owners in MN like this one ( http://www.scionlife.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=122241 ) for PA?

*EDIT*

We will be watching 3 Fast 3 Furious (get it!? :silly:) at

7:55 (7:15 is sold out!)

at the southdale center. We'll be at Bloomington Kennedy around 6:30-6:45 and head to Water Tower at Southdale after that. We'll have about an hour to chill n stuff before the movie starts. I'll bring my camera along so we can take pics and videos.

Make sure you get your tickets early just in case we get there and there is a long line or it's sold out. I'll be getting my ticket thursday after i get off work around 6' ish, if you want to meet up and hang out for a bit, PM me for my cell.

Then we'll be heading to Uni after so come if you can![/b]

definently... i know for sure for about 100 we can rent a VIP room to watch it... so we split the cost of the 100 plus tickets it shouldent be too much... i belive it holds about 15 people... but i can check into it... if were going to hav emore people than that we can just use the regular theater

There's a thread on the MNSC board about getting people together to go see this - if not with this group, maybe with both groups we can arrange a screening?

if we watch it opening day (6-16-2006), what time would be good for you guys? We should get tickets in advance at the electronic ticket booth so we can skip the line.

Post the date and time and I'll be there as well, but only for the cars, that is all.

The movie plot sucks, the actors are not great and all of the race filming was done here in Cali. Very little of it has anything to do with the real Tokyo and its racing scene. It is supposed to be a realistic rendition of street drifting, realistic is downhill mountain pass racing. You want something more interesting, check out Initial D, and not the US released DVD’s. The Import original and uncut stuff is what you want to see.

It seems southdale is the place to go. It opens on the 16th, is that a good day for everyone? or maybe the 17th?

They are meeting up in Apple Valley. Does anyone want to drive out there? I don't mind.

Maybe if not a lot of people are coming to this meet we can go with mnsc

2. Josh and Sarah on the 16th evening
3. Buebie (Brian) encouraging somone to come pick me up...so i can drink to get through this bad movie.
4. Adam & Bobbie
5. Rob + lil' bors

Recommending that we do Uni after. Would be awsome to see a good dozen boxes lined up on the side of the road.

Depending on where Brian lives, I could pick him up. Don't get too drunk, no vom in my box. Roommate did that over winter, so ____ed me off.

Looks like this meet is on!

since most of you didn't specify a date and time :tap: I'm guessing June 16th after 5pm would be good for everyone?

I definitely want to see it so maybe me and my bf will come. I know we are supposed to go with a bunch of guys from DB Performance but I am not sure when they are all going. That is also the weekend we might be going to Iowa for racing so I am not sure how that will fit in either. I will keep checking to see what time you decide and figure it all out.

Make it a 7:00ish show and I'll go.

i just checked and you cant see times for it yet... its still too soon

Streeter
06-09-2006, 03:19 PM
We should get there early and load up that little lot by the water tower. If we go for a 7:00ish show then we should go an hour or so early so we can chill for a bit first. Then again if it's southdale than that won't happen because it'll be full already anyway. At least at the Mall of America the top floor of one of the ramps MIGHT have a clear section we could all park in.

Flecs
06-09-2006, 03:56 PM
yeah meeting early is a good idea... someone will need to be there first (probly chanman since he planned it) and post his cell # or somthing so we can call to know where were going to meet

Times are still not up :gun:

So do you guys wanna meet up that the big water tower or some place else and cruise down there? I think watching it around 7-8 would be good.

If we go to Uni/Midway afterwards maybe a movie around 8-9 would be good so we dont get there too early.

The movie was pretty good, but with most of the race scenes filmed in the US and very little really filmed in Japan kinda made me angry... stupid budgets! Cars were all great, a ton of JDM Toyota bB’s and isT’s, very kewl!

The fact that they didn't sub all of the Japanese spoken scenes but only the most important ones, was the best thing about the film... I love knowing Japanese! Probably confused some of you, but you could understand what was going on with just the visuals. I was a little disappointed that they were not as accurate with the Japanese culture as I thought they would be, could have done a little better there.

All around a good film, a fun event, just hoped that it didn't have to rain! :P
