Star Wars: The Force Awakens cocktails and lobby takeover at ArcLight Cinemas in Bethesda (Photos)

We are less than two weeks from the opening of Star Wars: The Force Awakens, and there's no chance of ignoring that fact in the barrage of publicity and marketing surrounding the film. You certainly can't ignore it in the lobby of ArcLight Cinemas in Bethesda's Westfield Montgomery Mall.

When you enter the 16-screen cineplex, you can't miss the floor-to-ceiling image of Kylo Ren and his infamous crossguard lightsaber on the Image Wall.

But wait, there's more. Try one of their Star Wars-inspired cocktails, if you can muscle Greedo aside at the theater's lobby bar.
Tickets are almost sold out for the 7:00 PM showtime on December 17. The remaining seats are down in the front rows below the screen.

This reminds me of when dyer said he doesn't cover iPic because they don't invite him to events.

Robert is sort of like a Jedi. Always calm. Always mindful.

It's the equivalent of taking campaign donations!

I'll have a Stormtrooper. Who's buying?

Yup. The campaign donations to influence decisions and policy that dyer keeps going on about with the council members - it's the same thing here. He only reports (and positively) on places he gets freebies and invitations to. Otherwise he feels shunned and intentionally ignores iPic and others.
