Clones wanted for WB pre-screening event- 8/9/08
What: Pre-Screening of Star Wars: The Clone Wars
Where:
Emagine Theater (at Fountain Walk Plaza)
þ44425 W 12 Mile Rd
Novi, Michigan 48377
Changing area: No
They may have a small room available for us, but plan on a PARKING LOT costume change.
Blasters: Yes
When: Saturday, August 9, 2008
Arrive by 9:00am
In Costume by 9:30am
Troop from 9:30am - 10:30am
Pre-Screening at 11:00am
We will have reserved seats in the theater, and will get to see the movie after the troop.
Characters: Warner Brothers has requested that we provide as many "troopers" as we can. Their preference is Clones, followed by Stormtroopers, then other helmeted movie characters (TD, TB, TI, SL, BH, etc.). They requested that all the characters be Movie Characters. That means no EU characters. Sorry. They will allow Rebel costumes and Jedi, if the available spots are not filled by helmeted 501st characters. All costumes must be 501st or Rebel Legion approved.
Available Spots: 29 Costumers + 1 Handler/Photographer = 30 People
We currently have 20 of the 29 spots filled. This will be first come, first serve for out-of-state clones. If a clone has to travel with another helmeted trooper (TK, TD, TI, TB, TS...) , we might allow for that to increase our clone numbers.
Deadline:
We have to provide the number of attendants by this Wednesday, 8/6/08.

As we still have 10 spots to fill for the above Clone Wars pre-screening, we are opening it up to other helmeted characters besides Clones (TK, TD, TI, TB, DZ, BH...) but they must be from the movies.
