Used some of my thousands of Scene points for the tickets so it didn’t actually cost anything. The showing was at 6:50 and we were 2nd in line (lined up at about 6:10 or so – and i’m glad we were that early – it was full. Really enjoyed it. The plot is totally predictable, but the visuals are just stunning. And the 3D is WOW! And the preview for Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland (also 3D) is mind-blowing! Can’t wait for that one.

As for the super bowl half-time thing… US football is painfully slow, what with a bazillion time outs and 4 downs instead of 3, etc., so the earliest i’d start watching for half-time is maybe around 7:30. Just check in every 15 minutes or so – when the clock gets down to 2-3 minutes left in the half, you’ll probably have another 20 minutes before half-time starts…
