I'll probably need one! Hope they have a pair with The Hulk's image that I can purchase!

Underoos!!!!

I saw an article that not all, but a lot of AMC theaters are open basically 24 hours a day this weekend to show Endgame

Our local Alamo Drafthouses have added more screenings. I don't remember ever seeing that or at least them announcing it.

In all seriousness, there is a great app called RunPee that tells you when the best time(s) to go to the bathroom during a movie is! It may not work for those going to the very first showing, but any time after that is fair game! I've had to use this several times in the MoviePass + Pregnancy days (RIP MoviePass). It tells you what you miss while you're gone!

I love pee apps I know, childish. I have an app for airport bathrooms sponsored by Charmin called Sit or Squat.

Anyone else see the new Disney Nature movie? Penguins? It stars Ed Helm (Office and the Hangover) as the narrator. I enjoyed it a lot.

It has a great soundtrack and it's also nice and family friendly.

Saw it last night and loved it! I love seeing the DisneyNature films on a big screen! This one was so cute.

I just checked my local Alamo Drafthouse and same thin - they added a ton more shows and while not quite 24 hours being opened they are starting at 8am and then a last showing at 1:15am .... Figure that last one with get out at like 4:30am so not a lot of time until the next days 8am showing

Never seen the Alamo do anything like this

Welp, no fall discounts today, but summer discounts are up. Several offers through August 28.

There is a dining offer that is saving some money. Just ran 1 scenario for someone I was helping yesterday and they would save a couple hundred which is better than nothing. The good thing is this dining offer does not appear to be tied in to purchasing a park hopper.

Haven’t looked too closely yet but it appears to be the offer includes 1 free QS meal per night of stay. Guessing this might be what the new ‘free dining’ offers look like in the future.

You beat me to it! Haha!

I called to try and get discounts for November and, nope. Nada.

They day Free Dining for 2019 was released (January 2nd I think?) I booked and kept getting that for HOURS. Checked back mid-day and was able to book just fine.

Not new, it was happening around the Star Wars announcement as well. Some summer discounts are out today so they probably have a bunch of people checking prices.

They've run a similar promotion in past years for summer dates (also for late winter). I wouldn't use this offer as a barrometer for future dining promos.

It's an attempt to control traffic to certain pages so the site doesn't choke.

You're in the standby line. You should have gotten a fastpass.

On the up side, the page matches your avatar. Isn't that cute?

I get that on Amazon all the time.

Oh wait. No, I don't.
