Raiders Of The Lost Ark The Adaptation Movie Premier!
Very excited fans of the original film were cueing up anxiously out side Vue in London's Lecister square waiting for the doors to open up so they could catch a glimpse of the adaptation of the Raiders of the lost arc fan film, once the doors swung open the eager crowd flooded the doors and proceeded in to get there tickets checked and sent on to the drinks reception where they were welcomed with cocktails and soft drinks for the younger audience.
food was at hand as well in the good old theme of Indiana Jones films such as snake and sheep's eyeballs and also including the monkey brains, but they wasn't the real thing obviously as there would be a lot of people being sick as they crunched on sheep's eyeballs and got gooey eating brains of a monkey, instead they were replaced by a alternative of things for example the snake was replaced by vegetarian sushi, sheep's eyeballs were sweet dough and a blackberry, monkey brain was a raspberry jam kind of goo, below are some pictures of the food that was on offer.

After the food was consumed and the drinks drunk everyone was led to the entrance to the cinema room but not after receiving a vial of mysterious blue liquid. Free popcorn and bottles of coke and a nice movie poster were at hand on every seat for fans to take home and remember the night, then being seated we was given a brief talk to by a guy in a pretty cool Indiana Jones outfit and then the film was presented by two of the cast of the film one of which was also the director of the film.
After a huge applause the film began to role and the laughs and claps were thorough threw out the entire length of the film, being only young and adventurous the guys did a really amazing job of remaking one of the classic films that everyone remembers, even though betamax is a bit out of date now the guys had it digitalised for the premier in London and i have to say hats off to the guys and girl of the film and not forgetting the dog snickers who took the role of the monkey due to them not being able to have a spider monkey at the time. I really hope the guys bring the adaptation out on DVD as it would be a nice DVD to have in the collection.
