This board was a big help for me also. I have been working so much the last week or so, I had no idea tickets were going on sale tonight. Thanks to this thread...I was informed. ;-)

 

[yulilin3]

so it looks like everyone got their tickets?

 

[nherbert]

Have they played the trailer yet?

not yet...

 

[melana]

Nope. It's not even the 2nd quarter in the game yet. A few seconds left in the 1st...

 

[nherbert]

Thanks, over here in Oz we can't watch the game (supposedly working though actually watching the spinning symbol on my browser for AMC).

not as exciting as the tickets but we went to the mall today and ended up with 2 new friends

BB is an ornament from the Disney Store; WALL-E has nothing to do with this thread but he was from the LEGO store and just so cute we had to have him!! Not great pictures - we took them quickly with the ipad...

BTW, our local IMAX, said it will release right at 10. It does not show yet on fandango, not avail on movietickets....so i will spend next hour hitting refresh at 2 sites. We have 1 set for 18th! but those are sat Dianry Springs dine in-no IMAX. DH and 2DS will not want to wait too long to see it in IMAX, plus its reserved seating and comfy. Love the theaters around here.

2nd quarter is ready to start so you are looking at at least 20 to 25 minutes..that's if it moves quickly. The 1st quarter went by fairly quick.

I got a ticket to the marathon, but it isn't assigned seating, so I am debating returning it through Fandango and just picking a 7pm showing. Idk. Phantom Menace is the only Star Wars movie I've seen in a theater. I also have tickets for Friday and Sunday (family stuff Saturday).

Finally got tickets straight through cinemark! Had to settle for 3d but was able to pick our reserved seats for the 8pm showing! Huge Thank You to everyone that posted they were on sale!
This was good practice for the SWW special events.

I got tickets for one theater, still need el Capitan.

When I googled Fandango to try it again, I see a news article that says:

'fandango is down. amc theaters is down. alama drafthouse is down...

I would totally do the marathon if I could.

I know Alamo is down. I got on late, but have been trying for 10-15 minutes. Luckily, I want xmas day, so hopefully that won't sell out soon. Although, if the site is down, then no one else can get tickets either. I did see that some shows were already sold out on Thurs & Fri, but they actually still showed availability, unless the website was completely wrong.

Now, it's reload. Wait. Reload. Wait. Reload. Wait

DH and DD are the LEGO people in our family ( I like it that LEGO are 'their' thing) - I love WALL-E and declared him "mine" once they build him Which means he'll sit on the mantle for awhile before they take him apart and use his pieces to build something else!

We saw him in the store and as the frugal 'watch the bottom line' person that I am I was thinking about it...the LEGO team member (Ariel !!) that helped us took the display WALL-E out of the display and let me hold him - SOLD!

Then we walked over to the Disney Store and ended up buying BB8 - DD was amused that both of our purchases were droids.

Now for today's question......our initial plan was to wait until the Monday after "THE" movie opens to go to an early matinee showing (thinking it wouldn't be too busy) - now I'm thinking it might be nuts if the schools have let out for Christmas break...thoughts? Would we be better off waiting and seeing it on Christmas Day?

SW fans crash all theater website...yeah, Disney has their money printing machine out in full force. This should not only set opening weekend sales records but do so before the actual movie even plays

 

[DisDadDVC]

I can't imagine how fast this movie will get to $1bil. First 2 weekends?

At the 4 Alamo's here in Austin, Monday looked like it was getting picked over. Friday is the last day of school here. I would buy now.

thanks - was just trying to but right now it keeps showing me error messages or no availability for any day or time during the week - which I'm thinking (hopefully) is a glitch. Is it possible to go to the theater to buy tickets in person this early?
