Reconfirmation of RSVPs for the Los Angeles Premiere of Toho's "Hidden Fortress: The Last Princess"

Dear all,

This e-mail reconfirms that you are on RSVP list for the Los Angeles Premiere of Toho's "Hidden Fortress: The Last Princess" at 5:30PM on Sunday, April 27th, 2008 in Norris Cinema Theatre, followed by a Q&A with director Shinji Higuchi, actor Jun Matsumoto and special guest Anthony Daniels (best known as C-3PO from "Star Wars"). After the Q&A, there will be a catered reception in the George Lucas Complex Garden-level Patio. The film has not been rated. Some materials may not be suitable for children.

The theater has been OVERBOOKED to ensure that the auditorium reaches capacity. Due to the high number of RSVPs, the reservation list will be honored on a first-come, first-serve basis only and we recommend that you arrive by 4:30PM in order to guarantee your seat. This policy is standard and is absolutely necessary to ensure that as many people as possible can attend. The event will begin as close to 5:30 as possible. If you have a registered guest, the names will be listed under your reservation, so please locate your reservation first, then your guest's. Please also bring a photo ID to present at the check-in desk.

Toho reserves the right to refuse or revoke admission. Entry into the event constitutes consent to be photographed and grants to Toho the right to use such photographs for advertising, publicity or promotional purposes.

The screening will be monitored for unauthorized recording. By attending, you agree not to bring any recording device into the theater and you consent to a physical search of your belongings and person for recording devices such as a camera and/or camera phone. Bringing such devices will result in your immediate removal from the theater and forfeiture of the device. Unauthorized recording will be reported to law enforcement and may subject you to criminal and civil liability.

Food and beverages are absolutely NOT permitted inside the theater; please do not attempt to sneak in food, as we will be required to ask you to leave the auditorium.

Attached are a couple of maps to help direct you to Norris Cinema Theatre. One provides directions from the 10 & 110 freeways and the other has out internal campus geography, with Norris (NCT) listed as n.10 in blue.
