Kind of like my Girlfriend at the time and I... we saw the "test
showing" which
was very rough on special effects of Harry Potter's first movie about a year
before it was released.  We were in a dumpy mall (which had a hogwarts feel to
it) when we were aproached by a "marketing" company to come watch a test
screeining of a movie.

It was rough... it was not complete, but strangely delightful.  We had to sign
paper after paper of legal stuff saying we would not discuss what we saw with
anyone.  I suspect the men in black would have showed up if they did.

We saw the first glimpses of the train, as that sequence was rendered... and we
loved it.  I've never got to do anything like that before ever again.

Sorry not sooner, I have had to do some medical junk the past two days.
