"Ghostbusters" Screening At The Loft Cinema 10/27/2007
Saturday October 27th was the screening of Ghostbusters at the Loft Cinema
in Tucson, AZ. We've been working with the theater on the screening planning since the first week of February.
We were quite surprised to pull up to the theater and see that instead of the marquee simply saying "Ghostbusters",
it read "AZ GHOSTBUSTERS LIVE."
We started the evening by doing a scan of the lobby so people entering
the theater to take pictures with us. We used some simple stuff for our scanning equipment since we don't have a pke yet.
The theater director went on stage and started telling the story on how the theater is supposed to be really haunted. The
theater had a guy dressed as a ghost messing around with people in the audience while he was telling this story. The ghost
hid and they stated the music video for the theme song, we came out two on each side and started handing out our marshmallows
and twinkies. At the end of the song we got up and did the cartoon dance across the stage. The host asked us if
we had found anything yet and then the ghost popped up in the audience and ran out. We pulled wands and gave chase. Then they
had a trivia contest when they gave out a poster and dvds and some of or AZ GB logo t-shirts we donated. After that we came
back to the stage with a trap and announced the theater is clean.
It was the first time all of us had seen the
movie in a theater. We were pleased to see alot of kids in the audience and alot of their parents told us it was their
kids 1st time seeing the movie. We were glad we could be a part of that. We can't wait for next year's show.
We'd like to thank The Loft Cinema and program director Jeff Yanc.
