Austin Powers 3 opens 7/26.FWIW there will be product jams on 5/3, 5/10 and 5/24. Not to mention 1 other movie opening the day after Episode 2. Advice to Dave B: Peep Upcoming Movies and Film Releases to stay current on release dates.

Methodist? Wow. I always thought he was jewish. Well he acts jewish anyway.I dont mean that in a bad way, I am sure I have some jewish in me somewhere. I myself was born into a converted mormon household, one half from roman catholic and the other from southern baptist. I myself am Agnostic so really it makes no sense to me how anyone can ever spend anytime at all going to church. Unless your church happens to be a two mile oval and the preacher is Dale Earnhardt JR. Dave

We have lots of NASCAR-ites in my neck of the woods, and it IS a religion  According to that same bio, it seems that Lucas has little use for organized religion himself (unless it's "The Force," or more accurately, $$$). At the risk of getting too OT, it would seem that organized religion has done little of late to make this world a better place, anyway. People would be better off respecting each others' common humanity rather than playing "My God can beat up your god" or using their organization to protect child-molestors. Okay, I'm done now <Hillary getting off her soapbox> Back to Episode 2; I'm interested in seeing it on film (little choice as we're lucky to have at least traditional cinemas around here, they keep closing down) to gauge the quality compared to film-originated product. One of the plusses that Lucas mentioned was that he could take the best take from one actor and combine it with the best take from another actor. To my thinking, that would kill any spark of interplay between performers. But then again, is that what we're looking for in such films?

It took Variety to tell the truth: On opening day Episode 1 played to empty seats in suburban theaters and empty theaters in rural areas. You're gonna see the same thing for Episode 2.
