Buy for the first release of the trilogy on DVD? Over two hundred and
fifty fans, braved the autumn-tinged air of White Marsh, Maryland to
attend the Best Buy Midnight Madness event. Joined by local radio
station 98Rock and the 501st Squadron, fans were treated to music,
free Battlefront T-shirts (for the first 50 in line) and prizes. The
biggest prize was the shared interest in the Star Wars Trilogy and the
opportunity to own one of the first copies when the clock struck
12:01am on Sept. 21.

announced. According to the list we ran the other day, there are lots
of stores, and at this point we do believe that's the list, but to be
certain, you'll have to wait to get the official word at

Moviemaking Madness competition will be screened tonight in LA. I
covered the event last year for
Wired Magazine, together with
my pal
Choire Sicha. It was
probably the zaniest, most surreal 24 hours of my life.
Don’t forget to come to the Silent Movie Theater in Hollywood this
Saturday for NYC Midnight’s Los Angeles Area screening of top 2003
movies followed by a Q & A session. This will be a great chance to see
some award winning shorts and ask questions about the 2004
competition. Also, you may drop off your entry documents & entry fee
at the info session.

Midnight Why Am I Up? Notes
Midnight Why Am I Up? Notes
08/21/2004 03:48 AM
Every night on this trip I wake up at approx 2AM. I have no
idea why. I get up for a couple of hours, do some writing, or
programming, then go back to sleep. I can't recall this happening
before. Maybe it's because I'm drinking more coffee than usual? Not
sure. Anyway, I'm up, and writing.
I heard a report on NPR yesterday as I was leaving Harrisonburg
about the seige in Najaf in Iraq, and how it's a lot more serious than
most reports indicate. They interviewed a Washington Post reporter who
was embedded with the US troops there. Defying Sean Hannity and his
flock who think I should turn my mind off (no I'm not a liberal), this
makes sense.
The Imam Ali shrine at Najaf is one of the most meaningful
places in Islam. We don't have anything remotely like it in the US,
because our culture is so young. This place is like Yankee Stadium to
a Yankees fan, or Disneyland to a Disney fanatic. And this doesn't
begin to explain the value to Muslims. It's like one of the historic
Jewish or Christian places in Israel.
In science fiction, even very bad science fiction, they teach
you how to take what you know about one set of circumstances and apply
it to another. To see why this is such a mess, all you have to do is
apply the sci fi mindset. How would you feel if there was an Islamic
army driving down every main street in every town in America? I
wouldn't like it, and I bet you wouldn't either.
