This just pisses me off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Presales for an F'ing movie is BULLSH*T!

This should be first F'ing come, first F'ing served......PERIOD!

Pre-sales helps to eliminate riots, fights and the terrible "shock" when everyone is waiting in line for 5 hours and then everyone goes ape-sh*t.

Not even going to put up with all the craziness even if it is Star Wars. Just going to sit back the day after it opens and dl a decent torrent.
