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.

I would much rather see the finished product than a rough cut. Think of all the elements that would be missing! Dragons, port keys... Practically every part of the movie would need specail effects. I'll wait until November, even though I'm within Driving distance of Chicago, the movie just won't be the same.

It would be great to see but I think it would also be a waste of time if the thing is not completely finished!
I completely agree with Snape's long lost son and goyk!

It would be great to see the movie before it came out in November, but being that the movie is not yet finished, it would just leave me wishing that November would come even sooner!

I would love to be there for a first screening of GoF! To see it before everyone else would be great! But, alas, even if they allow the public, I am waaaaayyyy too far away to go. (Western Canada here) Lucky anyone who does.

I would love to go see that!! It sounds like a great opportunity, but I guess I will have to wait for it to come out in theaters. I couldn't possibly make it over to Chicago in that little of time!

That would be amazing to attend.

And a little closer to home.
Like in the neighboring country.

Its very cool that they've picked Chicago to show the rough cut in, it could have been LA or New York easily. And seeing as I live about a half hour away, that's even more exciting. However, the problem is that I'll pobably not be able to get a change to see it. Ahh well, easy come easy go! I can wait until November.
Rock on Chi-town!

Wait...Is it just me or did that translation make no sense?
If it is what it is.
Cool.
I wonder if we will get some new pictures out of this.
Would be nice, but I kind of doubt it.

I wouldn't want to attend the rough cut to see how well it goes down with the audience! I'm looking forward to seeing the finished version in November - it's going to be off the hook!

Hopefully they have some reliable people screening the film and they will be honest and have them change stuff that needs to be changed! I really hope this movie is good. Well, they have all been good, I just hope this one follows the book more than the last one.
