Is that coupon code only for the Canadian showing?

I'm going in Los Angeles on October 28th.
It sounded like the coupon code includes the after-party?

If there's an after-party, I sure would like to go.
:)
oh that's awesome!!! You'll have to tell us all about it! Dunno bout the coupon though

I believe that's for the Canadian screening(s) only, DC2.

I may do the Laemmle, and possibly the Dome as well. I don't believe there's an after party for the screenings at the Laemmle tho.

But keep me posted if/when you're coming up, honey!

Getting closer...

After my email last week, you responded strongly and organized a great launch day on October 26th!

New Zealand
6:10pm Hastings, Hawke's Bay

Australia
6:30pm Glendale, New South Wales
6:30pm Adelaide, South Australia (14 left)
6:30pm Bundaberg, Queensland (7 left)
6:30pm Perth, Western Australia

United Kingdom
8:30pm Glasgow (27 left)

United States

8:30pm Orlando, FL (Sold out!)
8:30pm Dallas, TX (Sold out!)
7:30pm Phoenix, AZ
7:30pm Carlsbad, CA
8:00pm New York City (October 28th)


The Second Wave

People always ask "How can I help fight?"

I always responded: "We don't need money, we just need you to help get the word out."

Sadly, the launch showings above aren't going to be enough to wake up the media and politicians. We need more, or they will dismiss this message as a "niche film".

Thankfully, our supportive community is planning a second wave of theater showings and in the next couple days we have to demonstrate adequate demand for the movie (and our message) or they won't be approved by the theaters.


I hate to ask, but it's really important

In the US alone, there are about 70 screenings that can only happen if we get enough tickets reserved. Some only have a couple days left before the deadline so it can be shown before the US elections.

Click the map below to find one near you and buy some tickets.

Give them to a smoker.
Give them to a loved one.
Give them to your customers.
Give them to your doctor.
Give them to your media.
Give them to your politicians.

The theater is a safe place for the community to learn. This is our best chance at making an impact.



Click here to see available US showings


There are about 30 more in the other three countries below. Please help spread the word about the showing near you, buy tickets, or organize a showing in your city if there isn't one.

Ask me if you need help.

We're only going to get one chance at this. The media is watching. The politicians are watching.

Now's our chance.

  3. Buy tickets throughout the entire US at Tugg, Laemmle (LA), or Cinepolis (NYC) theaters.
  4. Invite your neighbors and loved ones.

If we're going to win this battle, now's the time to help us make news. We're close, but need to get all these screenings approved.

Thanks for fighting with us!
- Aaron Biebert & the team

I'm going in Los Angeles on October 28th.
[DC2 unleashes F-bomb]
So this is the first I've heard of this Carlsbad showing.

And it is at the Regal 12 Carlsbad, which is 10 minutes from me.
And it is sponsored by Feels Good Vapor, which is a shop I've purchased from before.

A few years ago I visited them and brought them a CASAA display and CASAA cards.
But yet, this is the first time I hear about them sponsoring a showing, and it's already sold out.
:(

And the Regal 12 Carlsbad is my favorite theater of all time.
It has recliners and reserved seating.
YOU CAN'T BEAT THAT WITH A STICK.

This is a travesty of epic proportions.
:laugh:

So I called the manager of Regal 12 and he denied any knowledge of the event.
Apparently that's because it's a private event.

Or else he stupid and had no idea what is going on at his own theater.
Which I kinda doubt, but not sure yet.
:)

So I called Feels Good Vapor, and they will see if they can accommodate me.
I sure hope so, and if I do say so myself I deserve it.

And God knows I don't want to drive up to Los Angeles in Friday traffic to see it.
Although I would do so, if I didn't have this other choice.

Wish me luck please.
:)

Good luck, DC!!! I wish that I had one close to me :( I would have no problem helping to coordinate one in my area but, I just don't know enough people in this area to even try to get enough up for a showing.

If it does end up within an hours drive from me, I will be there.

Yes. I noticed the one in Austin this morning. I know a person there that quit vaping (back to smoking) a few years ago. Thinking about trying to get him to that showing.

Do you have vape stores near you? Talk to them if you can and see if they can assist by talking it up to their customers. Any customers who have friends/family that smoke are think vaping is awful, they need to take em to see it, and try to get any politicians to see it if they can.

Good luck @DC2 !

I have to do more research on my computer as opppsed to my phone. I see several showings around Orlando, says Orlando is sold out. First I have heard of it. The other showings I have to work. Gotta figure something out!

How can Orlando sell out and Atlanta (Kennesaw) is still less than half way to getting the 100 minimum? Still encouraging to see it drop from needing 80 to just 54 when I I just refreshed the page.

Would only be 52, but stupid me forgot to put in for vacation the day following the event:(
Still have 15 days... And why 100 during prime movie time? Have been to several early afternoon movies where the wife and I were the only one in the theater! Once even had to go back out and remind them to turn the projector on. Seems that 46 or even 20 paid customers would be better than two. Or a dollar amount minimum, saw a post complaining about the high cost in some city. Atlanta is only 12 bucks, why not a higher cost until the thresh hold is reached?

No vape stores near me. Believe me I had already thought about that. They would be more likely to be able to get non vapers there and that is who needs to see this.

NOT that I wouldn't love the op of seeing you again, but I DO hope you can get into the Carlsbad screening.

I'll be at one (or more) of the LA showings, for sure. Perhaps even the grand Premiere at the Dome!

Wish ME luck!!
