Sorry to hear of shortages in your area! We went to the Century 24 theater here in ALbuquerque Monday (kids were off school), and were able to get four of them (one per ticket). the cashier had quite a stack right there in the window ...
Nice promo, but not the greatest (most playable) card. I doubt they'll even give out all the promos they had ... there were less than 24 people at the 2:15pm showing. The "other" anime also currently showing, Miyazaki's "Spirited Away," had a far greater turn-out (we saw that a few days earlier).
Oh well ...
Over 'n out,

You guys who get the Promos are lucky, I haven't been able to find a single theater even showing Pokemon 4ever, here in Oregon, I couldn't even find one in Washington, and there's no way I'm goin' to California, just to watch a movie(and get the card), and then come straight back.

The film is not playing here either. The Las Vegas Metro Area has about close to 2 million people, and NO movie houses here are showing it at all.
Hopefully, it will be in nationwide release here shortly.

I hope that the theater in Gurnee Mills still has the promo so I could get it in the weekend or what i think Wizards should do is give the promo out in the upcoming battle zone for those who come out to support this new form of league. I hope Wizards like this idea and go with it. I am sure many of us fans would be very happy if they did. ![[Bounce]](../tcg/graemlins/jump.gif)

I'm in the Cleveland, OH area and out of the multitudes of theaters here, not one of them has the movie playing.
So, the hopes of getting a promo are nil. Sure, there's eBay, but ![[Razz]](../tcg/tongue.gif) . I don't want to pay top$$$ for it either.

I am a bit ticked that Pokemon 4Ever made no appearance in any theater here in Hawaii, so is there a way to get it here, or at the least, get the Promos? A majority of Pokemon fans, even the non-players are disappointed that the movie wasn't released, and that they won't be getting the promos...
I had a feeling something would go wrong ever since I heard that Miramax was doing this movie, and my premenition came true... This event has turned more people away from Pokemon all together...
On the bright side... I'll get back to you on this one ![[Frown]](../tcg/frown.gif)

Like others out of 5 major movie theaters in my area none are showing Pokemon 4ever. What is this crap? Can someone find a number to call or to complain? Miramax really screwed this one up royally. ![[Mad]](../tcg/mad.gif)

Well, after the abysmal performance of the last Pokémon release in their theatres, I would not be surprised if many chains just decided not to touch it. 
Lessee... we'll just change the title a bit... *Yu-Gi-Oh 4ever*... that should do it!
