I got 25 pairs of tickets to give away for a fan-only showing of Beast with a Billion Backs in San Diego on Friday 25th of July at 7pm. This is likely the only big screen showing of the movie. Various cast and crew will be attending, too. I'd like to send a few PEELers to make it an unofficial PEEL meet. For details: CGEF news entry Hurry up if you want to go and make sure to mention your peel username in the email!

That's pretty cool that the screening is during Comic Con in San Diego. Nice timing.
Once again, dammit on the age minimum!

This is one of those times when the country is just too big for my taste seeing as how I'm all the way on the other side. Damn you Louis and Clark!

Thanks for the offer - if I had a little more than a month's warning I could probably swing it. As it is, my new position at work makes it very difficult for me to take time off like I use to.
Ah, the chance to meet Billy West and Katey Sagal. Then the chance to meet the geeks-in-charge, Matt G. and DXC.
So how about you, mArc of Borg; are you going to be able to make the trip? I know you would have to get a passport, fly from Germany, catch about a dozen flight layovers, but dude, it's a once-in-a-lifetime chance for you to meet the players involved and they get to meet you - one of the two people who are responsible for the geeks getting together and causing such great profits for FOX that they gave us the movies. (The other main person would have to be Leandro at FM/TLZ).
I really mean that - your part of keeping CGEF and PEEL up for eight years has given a sort of focal point for the fans to gather. You and Leandro have spent countless hours and money keeping things going - I do think both of you deserve not only our love and respect, but the thanks from Groening and company.

Sounds like it was a really awesome time that you can continuely rub in everybody's faces. Did you get to meet any of the cast/crew?

Unfortunately, the cast/crew didn't stick around long after the presentation. They talked about the film for about ten minutes, then left. David Cohen said something about meeting with FOX executives and snubbing them for the screening introduction, so I take it that they had something else scheduled for later that night. He also mentioned that the screening was supposed to be a test screening for the DVD movie, but that since it was already released, we had better like it or "our kneecaps would be broken." We were also treated to a hilarious, never-before-seen anti-piracy commercial voiced mainly by Bender and the guy who is the voice of the announcer. (I think it was Billy West.) All in all, it was awesome. Like I mentioned, John DiMaggio stuck around until the credits rolled, then he immediately left. I laughed at the Pineapple Express line though. It wrapped around the theatre and the last block of people were denied access. EDIT: On a side note, I recorded the first half of the presentation on my camera. I would have recorded the entire thing, but I was hoping for a meeting that never happened. So I'll post it on YouTube later today and post the link when I do. Again, the presentation wasn't that long and I would have recorded the entire thing, but once again, I stopped recording halfway through so I could be ready for a meeting that never happened. This just makes me want to go to Comic-Con 2009 even more. Even if there isn't a Futurama panel (and I hope there will be one) I'll try my best to go. On yet another side note, I may be going to Blizz-Con this August. ^.^
