According to a report on Bad Taste, the first screening
of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire is scheduled to take place in Chicago, IL this Saturday (July 9th). It may be possible for the general public to get tickets to the event & I suggest (if you can) you place a few calls to the local AMC theaters to see if that is possible.
Babel Fish translation of the article:
The post-production is still in course, in particular as far as the special effects, and the assembly will not be that definitive one... But some watching lucky people will be able to assist to one special projection of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire this Saturday, that is between 48 hours.
The test screening is a practical one accustoms them of the production houses, than they use it as a system in order "sondare the land" and to assess that the public appreciates the relative choices to the scenario, the recitazione and the assembly of the film. The spectators receive a module to compile with their impressions, and before the projection a responsible of the production house perceives that the film still is not completed, and that not there will be definitive the sonorous column neither the special effects. Insomma, one "crude" version of the film, a work in progress sure still imperfect, but perhaps just for this still more moving! And for we, than we are not therefore fortunate from being able to assist to the projection?
It is expectable that in the immediately successive hours to the screening some book reviews appear on Internet, probably rich of spoiler! We of Bad Taste will hold to you we inform to you...
We have asked for confirmation on this story but I'm not sure if we will hear anything, secrecy and all that. If you have a chance to see the movie please let us know and if we see any reports of the screening online we will be sure to bring them to you.

Illinois?? Comeon! COME TO CANADA!! I'd love to see that. Be able to keep it secret from everyone, that would be way too much fun having people itching for details.
Too bad I'm like 18 hours away from Illinois.

What's the deal with Chicago? First Spellbound and now the screening. I wish I could go to that screening it would be really neat to see the movie in such a raw state, but then again I think that I would rather see it fully done so that it is not spoiled for me when it eventually hits the theaters.

Yes yes that's nice to hear! Can't go as always, but oh well. Not much we can do about it.
I'm alittle disappointed with Hpana right now as it might seem. With what happened yesterday (today for some of you) the London's bombing. You don't see HPana posting anything about it which hurts abit. This is a tragic event and I feel it deserves some reconition. Not the terror, but to acknowledge those who have lost their lives, or are hurt. I just thought I would say that.
Anyways 7 more days today!!!!! Getting so close!!!! I can't wait!!!

What??? That is just so unfair. All of poor slobs will be waitng MONTHS, and a lucky few will be able to go to a screening? And then the movie will be dissected in all the Harry Potter forums. Me no likey.

It would be cool if this is true... it seems odd though, a private screening without a finished post-production piece. I wish I could be there!

I would rather wait for the full movie.
I didn't enjoy azkaban so I would want to wait until Goblet of Fire was the BEST that it could be before I saw it so as not to be dissapointed again.

If I could go to that, I definitely would. Can you imagine that if they're only selling a limited amount of tickets to the general public, how many people are competing for them? I wonder how much they cost. I can't belive thyat we have to wait until November. Ugh. Good birthday present for me, though! (Nov 29)

I think it would ruin it to watch a rough cut, no effects film, no thanks....I'll wait for the final cut. We'll probably start to hear lots of spoilers after this.
