(100% Natalie-Portman.net) - Today, advance tickets were for sale at theaters across the nation for next weeks release of The Phantom Menace. In major cities, lines spanned around buildings as fans dressed as Jedi Knights and wielding light-sabers waited over night to get tickets for the showing of their choice on opening day. Fans were limited to 12 tickets each as anti-scalping measures are being taken by many theaters. The Phantom Menace opens May 19th and it is the most anticipated movie of all time. Webmaster's note: I have tickets for the 9:40pm PT showing (c h i).
