But the question on my mind. If I see the movie, how many bonus Miles will I receive?

I was just in London at the British Museum. AA is sponsoring an exhibition there.

My first thought about it was: "What's the point in them sponsoring it if you don't earn bonus miles for going?"

Maybe George Clooney lurk around this forum for his character research.

Maybe Starwood will auction off tickets to the premiere (with a chance to meet the stars) as a Starwood Moments promotion...^

Figuring it would take 100K+ to win, and that I value something like that at $20 plus a bottle of Dom or Krug that I would potentially drink, I would be overpaying by 8+ Cat 5 redemptions.

The book was quite a disappointment to me. Couldn't wait to read it, read it, and couldn't wait to put it down. 
I hope Clooney does better with the screenplay.

Jeff Goldblum can play Spiff, and Donald Sutherland can play Randy.

Will the cinemas introduce elite boarding and seating for this movie?
Any chance of upgrades? Who is first on the upgrade list?
etc.

I thought Punch Drunk Love was terrible
But, let's put this into perspective, Clooney is regarded to be one of the most attractive man in the planet, has been in the cover of many fashion magazines and declared the sexiest man alive. From my experience meeting FTers, he doesn't represent the mileage collector community,a more real representation would be if they casted Mr. Bean
