Merrydeath Posted April 25, 2006 Posted April 25, 2006 I'm tryin to organize a raid on the POTC2 movie in Iowa. Of course I want it here in my home port, but i was also wondering what I can hope for tie-in's for the movie. Will Burger King get the nod from Disney or will Mcdonald's swim with the fishes? The more tie-ins, the more chances we have of getting something cool! Let me know what to expect for our RAID. Merryd Pirate Lass with sass, brass, a cutlass, an a nice *ss.

Capt. Bo of the WTF co. Posted April 29, 2006 Posted April 29, 2006 What's the plan and the port Merry?
LadyBarbossa Posted May 6, 2006 Posted May 6, 2006 Hmm... good point, MerryD. Welp... I still like the idea of the PotC Interactive. A GREAT way to raise money IF a movie theater is willing to produce such an event. An' ya mentioned the radio stations around. Z 102.9 or 98.1 would be awesome since I know the guys on KHAK in the morning (Brain and the Bear) are big fans of PotC. Plus... which Theater? Wynnsong? Or Galaxy 16? Tough, tough question. Aye... would be great to have a Disney approval on this with some trinkets or something... make this a hell of an event! ~Lady B Tempt Fate! an' toss 't all t' Hell!"

Red Bess Posted June 6, 2006 Posted June 6, 2006 Thought I'd bump this topic up. However, I really doubt I'll be able to make this raid -- I have two other places to be that night, and neither of them are POTC 2 openings. However, if by some miracle my schedule should open up, I would love to be there. Cedar Rapids, correct? Ladies in Scarlet: Piratical Art and Accessories
Merrydeath Posted June 7, 2006 Author Posted June 7, 2006 indeed.. I was on the phone with the Theater people yesterday, and then with the radio crew today.. I am hoping that DISNEY will send some great things for it.. call or email me for details. Pirate Lass with sass, brass, a cutlass, an a nice *ss. Capt of the FOOLS GOLD PIRATES BLAST BREAST CANCER!

Blackfoot Posted June 7, 2006 Posted June 7, 2006 I am up for it Merrydeath. I think we can combine the movie and my idea that no one has responded too for a drinkfest get together. In Kansas or wherever. I guess I will be driving or riding to Iowa! ]
Merrydeath Posted June 7, 2006 Author Posted June 7, 2006 WOW... I am a happy pirate!! send for the kegs now. Pirate Lass with sass, brass, a cutlass, an a nice *ss.

LadyBarbossa Posted June 7, 2006 Posted June 7, 2006 :::Is stunned::: You all really would do that? Truly? By all means! I'll do what I can with MerryD to make the event a grand one then.

Cap'n Pete Straw Posted June 7, 2006 Posted June 7, 2006 Do we have a specific date for this? The movie release date was announced to be July 7 -- is that the weekend we are talking about? If that is the weekend in question, I know for sure I will be unable to make it to Iowa for this. First, it sure is tough driving a car with a hook. But that is the weekend of the Civil War Reenactment in Wauconda, IL, which we have been planning on for a full year -- it will be the first ever full family Civil War event for us.

LadyBarbossa Posted June 7, 2006 Posted June 7, 2006 Aye... July 7th is when this Invasion is being planned here. There will be many others all around in various states. I haven't a clue what Toby will be doing in the Chicago area. But July 7th is the plan, working on the details. I need to get a poster up in various places at the moment.. but I need to know the details first before I can make a poster. ~Lady B Tempt Fate! an' toss 't all t' Hell!"

LadyBarbossa Posted June 7, 2006 Posted June 7, 2006 aye... July 7th is what's planned. Still working on the details but that's the plan. ~Lady B Tempt Fate! an' toss 't all t' Hell!" "I'm completely innocent of whatever crime I've committed." The one, the only,... the infamous!

LadyBarbossa Posted June 24, 2006 Posted June 24, 2006 Final details are still being arranged. Thus far Friday - July 7th - late afternoon and evening will be a Pirate Invasion at the Galaxy 16 Cine in Cedar Rapids. Again the final details are being made but from what I know, the theater will be decorated in piratical decor, a costume contest between 5-6 pm... and hopefully more stuff to enjoy the evening. I might go in for the midnight showing in my pirate attire to help kick it off. ~Lady B Tempt Fate! an' toss 't all t' Hell!" "I'm completely innocent of whatever crime I've committed."

Merrydeath Posted June 25, 2006 Author Posted June 25, 2006 dang.. we won't have the radio station at the 6 pm showing, they want to do it at the 10 am show. I can't make it unless my work gets changed. I'm going to try to get another one for the 5- 6 showing.. but its going to be a smaller crew than I had hoped. Blackfoot, if you want to meet somewhere, you shoulda met last week.. rocking bands from the KS area, and a really good food court. and Amber Bock on tap. the CB faire in Iowa.. ask me for details.

The Doctor Posted June 30, 2006 Posted June 30, 2006 Sadly, I'll be the only one in pyrate garb up here in Minnesota. I'll be going with my Arabian horse friends, and they'll be all mundane in their fashion. I'll be pyratically decked out, as they are far too wussified to walk the walk, as it were. Yo ho ho! Or does nobody actually say that?
Cap'n Pete Straw Posted June 30, 2006 Posted June 30, 2006 I presume you have also received the personal e-mail: The Port Washington pyratical folk are gathering for a PotC showing Friday night (along with costume contest) in Saukville, WI. Advance (discount) tickets are being sold at the Portico Shop. Again... cannot join any of you. I have my own (Civil War) family plans Friday through Sunday. Maybe for PotC III....
