Nerd Alert!

Fans are Daft Vaders

DIEHARD Star Wars fans queuing to see the new movie which does not even open for 43 days have discovered they are waiting outside the wrong cinema.

Enthusiasts are camped outside Hollywood's Chinese Theatre in a bid to be the first to see Episode III - Revenge of the Sith on May 19.

But 20th Century Fox chiefs say it will not be screened there and will instead be shown at a venue down the road.

However, crowds will not budge and say rumours about the last two films not being on there turned out to be fake.

Spokeswoman, Sarah Sprague, said: "This is still the epicentre for Star Wars fans. For the big iconic pictures of the 1970s, people lining up were here."

The fans have vowed to stay put on Hollywood Boulevard, according to Variety magazine, and hope to raise awareness for their charity Starlight Starbright.

Note: the nerds have a spokeswoman.

Been a bit distracted by that Janesville Jawbone.
