    UiP are arranging a free pre-premiere at the "Collosseum" theatre in Oslo June 28, 17:45. Tickets will be handed out for free outside the theatre at june 26. The first fans in line will be receiving special gifts from Universal Pictures. Maximum 2 tickets per person. It's time to pull out the sleeping bags...

    Read more about it here (in Norwegian):

    Bwah? Free tickets -- that's not going to help the box office take. (I realize it's just one showing, but still.) And Universal Pictures? I'm confused -- are they involved with the international distribution of TFTM somehow?

    P.S.: Fred Lamingo (F.Lamingo) is the best name ever.

    I don't think these will impact the b.o. at all. People will probably be camping outside to get them - and anybody who's willing to do that will probably go pay to see the movie one more time. And it's good PR.
