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.

Why do all the coolest things happen in America when J.K. Rowling is form the UK, lives in the UK and the film was shot in the UK??? Totally unfair... If you get to see it count yourself as one the luckiest fans ever!

I am so jealous. When CoS released, I won tickets for four, and my kids and I got to see it a week early. I thought that was great.

Well, it would be interesting to see. The Babel Fish translation threw me a bit, but ...... I see that most of the special effects and such will not be there -- it seems to be basically a storyline and the dialogue and such. Just to kind of get an idea how people respond to the story.

*Sigh* If only I could go! Too bad I live a long way away from Chicago. Well actually it's not THAT far....only about a state or so away. It'd be worth it if I would be able to get to see the movie early!! It's bad enough waiting for the book, but the movie too!

I don't know if I would want to go or not... it might be more fun to wait until it was completed and see it with all the effects in place. Of course I can't go anyway so maybe I'm just trying to make myself feel better!! ~laugh~

Thats so cool! Lucky ducks! I wish I could see the movie before everyone else! It would make waiting so much easier. Oh well, I suppose it's worth waiting for since it's Harry Potter.

I can't believe they'd open a screening of the Goblet of Fire to the public...I thought that only producers and movie critics and the like got to see it before it was finished?

I highly doubt that they would show the first screening in Chicago...doesn't make sense to me. I will believe it when I get proof. Darn rumors...

It would be SO cool to attend! And to know what the uncut version looks like. Although I guess the final version'll have better special effects and all ...

I can wait until Nov for the final product. I'm not a fan of flying and Chicago's so big and I'm a small town girl. Althought if it was happening around here, I would be there. :)

Was that article translated to english or something, because what exactly is "We of Bad Taste will hold to you we inform to you..." supposed to mean? There were other parts in the article that didn't seem right, too.
It does seem interesting, however, and I give a congrats to all who get to see it!!

That would be so cool to go to that. I think that it was translated to english because babel fish is a language translating site.
