Girlfriend went to the theater to physically preorder since fandango was being a butt. I'm gonna marathon the movies myself :p
 
I got two 7 pm Thursday tickets to the little local theater down the street. The two tickets next to us sold as I was checking out, so I was lucky to get these. I can't wait, reserve seating so no worries about lining up :D

Reserved seating is truly the righteous path.

Trying to endure Attack of the clones from 3:30am to 5:30am would be arduous.

what the actual fuck

I can't imagine a hell worse than staying up all night watching the prequels
 
i can't wait for this trilogy to finish up so i can be the hipster who considers the prequel trilogy the 'purest' star wars experience of all 3.

Got some tickets finally for Saturday morning. Took me an hour trying on Fandango's app and website. Eventually worked on the website.

cinemark is supposed to start at 3 instead of 1. guessing they make those nearly two hour long breaks shorter?

My IMAX theatre still doesn't have tickets up -- anyone else in this boat?

Me too. Nothing in my zip code, although plenty in and around the city proper. Wondering if it's a glitch or what. Manually going to my theaters, I can only go out to December 17 and it shows "CURRENTLY, THERE ARE NO MOVIES AND SHOWTIMES FOR THIS THEATER ON THIS DATE."
 
Got my ticket for the Marathon!!!! :D

Starts at 3AM. Will definitely be skipping the prequels, fuck that noise. Will join in at Ep 4 and ride it out!

God bless you.

The thought of sitting in a movie theater at 4am watching Attack of the Clones sends a chill down my spine.
 
I will have to say, the experience getting tickets for TPM was way better. I skipped school with all my high school friends that day those tickets went on sale. There was like 3-4 other people in line.

This time it was me trying to frantically get a website to load.

While I'm not doing the marathon...I'm not the only one who would replace watching the prequels with RLM prequel reviews right?

Might as well be entertained
 
Just bought 2D tickets then 3D tickets for 3 hours later.

I guess I know what I'm doing on the 17th


Reserved seating at ipic. So fucking clutch

I hope the AMC website is just having a bad day because when I look at "My Tickets" under my account, it says I have seats for a showing on 12/19 at the San Francisco Metreon. Different confirmation # than one I got earlier though. Completely different state and date isn't a good sign!

My sister was a Godsend. Was able to snag reserved tickets for the 17th 10:30pm. Don't have to wait in line all day now for that. OMG! This is gonna be soooooo good! Will be such a great night.
 
Anybody else's marathon scheduled for 4:00am on Wednesday? Curious how that's supposed to work out.

My theater looked like it was 3AM on Wednesday, but if you clicked a little "more info" thing it basically said "Anything past midnight we list on that day but really counts for the next day"

So my 3AM on Wednesday is actually 3AM on Thursday, so it leads right into Ep7

That's clear and in no way super fucking confusing.
 
Just got tix for the 11pm showing on Dec 18 at IMAX 3D here in SF at the Metreon. I'm excited to let the hype truly begin.

Also excited to see any people who come out in cosplay and generally embarass me and my friends

Had to fuck with Fandango a lot to get it to go through, damn. Never seen shit like that before. Not since the PS3 pre-sale online, anyway. Can't believe I was so excited to part with 599 US dollars.
 
Finally got mine. December 18th at 4PM. Didn't realize until after I bought them I got IMAX 3D. Oops! I'm sure it'll look sick.

I'm just happy to be seeing it.

Damn the prequels are long. Most of the theater will probably sleep til 10:15 am. Perfect timing IMO
 
After an hour of ticket purgatory where I would get seat assignments and then watch as my time ticked out due to server seizures, I finally got great tickets at 11pm on Thursday. Apparently everyone else was in the same existential hell as I. Non-3D, the way god intended.

I have a feeling I'm going to regret this though. That movie poster screams of "every movie exec at Disney had to have their say".

Delayed my purchase so had to pick 11:20pm on Saturday night. I'll be tired after but it's all good. Got my favorite seats in the theater. Bought a few second hand gift cards to lessen the sting a bit. 22$ for a damn IMAX ticket is just too much!

Two Imax 3D tickets booked December 18th - Montreal Scotia Bank theater!

Used my scene points so that shit was free son!

LET'S FUCKING GO!!!
 
Alamo finally redirected to Fandango but after the 7:20 and 8:20 shows were booked except for very front row. Thus, I'm going to the 8:50 by myself with the one seat in the back.

Then turning right around the next morning to go to a 9am.

My Alamo doesn't show pre-sale for Star Wars. :(

Ah...finally got it. Had to go through fandago completely. Screw the drafthouse website.

Anyone else getting directed to a "Site Maintenance" page when clicking on View My Ticket from their Fandango email?

Yeah their front page finally turned into a "Please go directly to Fandango...." different screen.

Believe me, I've been looking at the normal screen all night. Whatever happened was really recent.

Was going to go with my wife, but, could only get the one ticket. Ah well.

Yeah, now I'm on Fandango, but can't make it past the checkout screen with the credit card info. Keep getting:

"We are sorry, but an internal error has occurred.

If you received this message after clicking the "Complete Purchase" button and want to check if your order went through, please click here. "

When I try to complete the order, but of course, the order hasn't gone through.

Just got 5 tickets for the marathon at Cinerama in seattle. Feels really good to not wait in line for hours for nothing. It's 5 seats in balcony (assigned seating) but it's better than nothing.
