We should have some sort of countdown clock which shows the days, hours, minutes and seconds untill release on the main page. I've seen this done on some other sites and thought it might be cool to have.

Might be we outta wait on somethin' like that, since scheduling changes can and do occur. It wouldn't be nice to make Haken reprogram the countdown if the release date changed. Besides, we don't know when the actual first showing will be, timewise, so we wouldn't really be able to include hours/minutes until we did.

Release dates could change at any moment. Waiting a bit won't change that. But this date should stick for quite a few months now. Countingdown.com has a good clock up for the film.

I don't mean to be picky Haken but by my calculations (and countingdowns) it is 321 days untill release. It says 322 on the front page. lol just thought I'd point it out (I could be wrong).

But 322 days seems so much further away than April 22nd.

I don't think I can wait that long.

Maybe it has to do with the International Date Line.

Once again I am just amazed at Haken, and all the work and time he puts into this board. Thanks for the countdown clock, and all the rest!

Just be ready to change the clock a few times.
