See [livejournal.com profile] trinityvixen not buy tickets in advance.

See [livejournal.com profile] trinityvixen arrive two hours before movie time to pick up ticket.

See [livejournal.com profile] trinityvixen goggle at the movie times board when the shows for 7:10, 7:45, and 9:45 (FOUR HOURS LATER) were sold out.

See [livejournal.com profile] trinityvixen have dinner with ticket-holders and go home.

Yeah, I failed to see The Dark Knight twice. That's okay. Maybe there will be enough people interested in a second viewing. Maybe on IMAX? I'd love to see it there and I do have a free ticket...

Maybe in another week when the craziness has died down. Seriously, SOLD OUT for a 2.5 hour movie starting at 9:45 pm on a Monday!?

This right here is why I usually wait two weeks or more before seeing new movies.

I'm up for a second showing at IMAX. And based on what Fandango was telling me last time I looked, the next time there's an open seat at an IMAX showing will probably be after the bar, so it's all good!

It sold out when I went to see it yesterday at 7. I was lucky to get there early enough to get tix, but I ended up in the 2nd row about 80% of the way over (barely ok, in my opinion).

I've heard it's amazing in IMAX. I'm gonna want to see it again, so I might head down to the IMAX for that.

I was at IMAX seeing it a second time and as we were getting in there was a lady at the booth asking about tickets. She said the next time there was an evening showing with any tickets available was next Sunday.

I was kind of hoping people would want to see it with me in NYC in an IMAX theater. I'll be up tomorrow, so please include me in any such plan you may make!

*big eyes* I don't think I can watch that again.

I'm guessing that the box office from the weekend did not reflect the number of people who were a) unable to get tickets and b) chose not to be part of the insanity, and, therefore, Monday is the next best day. But sheeeesh.

Yeah, I'm thinking that it won't even happen this week...

I do have this free ticket thing, which I think I can use towards the cost of an IMAX screening (even if it's not free). So, yeah, maybe some time this weekend?

I know the feeling. Honestly, I do want to see it again, mostly to convince myself it was just a movie. I would have fought harder to go along with y'all if I weren't still just a bitty-bit traumatized.

I went on a Friday afternoon. By 1pm, tickets for every show from 4pm onwards were sold out. I did get tickets to the 2:45pm show (which also sold out eventually).

Well you know I'm interested, but ... looks like I might have to wait a while.

Neither jendaby nor I have seen it yet, FWIW. I definitely want to--I think she does as well. So yes, if you wind up going again, keep us posted.

I haven't seen it yet. When were you planning a re-try?

weirdly, several people I know who saw it in IMAX first ended up preferring it on the regular screen. I will have to be a test case and do it in the reverse order to see if it's the same way for me or if it's merely that the second viewing helps make more sense of the thing.

But 4 pm and onwards on a Friday makes sense. It doesn't matter how late most people stay up. 9:45 pm on a Monday? You're not even getting out before midnight! Let alone getting home...

?

I'll keep posting, but how long is "a while"?

Date: 2008-07-22 03:40 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] trinityvixen.livejournal.com
Yeah, surely will, no worries.

No clue. I have to think about this. I've got several parties for people's birthdays this week, so I would probably guess on the weekend some time. But weekends are probably going to be heavily booked. Hrm. I'll have a think and post some more when I know.

We appreciated your company for dinner, regardless.

Dinner was fun! I'm glad I got to participate in at least that part of it.

From: [identity profile] kent-allard-jr.livejournal.com
I meant because it looks like no one can get seats.

Sorry for being confusing. :(

I thought it was related to why you missed the outing the first time around. I was about to ask what the F the dentist had done to your teeth!

Yeah, I think I'd like to see it on IMAX, but probably not this week or weekend.
