What the fuck? Why are they already sold out everywhere on movietickets.com? I mean, it also has screenings listed for the Friday and all show times are crossed out. I thought only Thursday night opening tickets were selling? Something tells me the tickets aren't actually on sale yet, at least near my location.

This reeks of a publicity stunt. All the listings are up, yet very few can even get as far as to see seating charts. But hey, now everyone is visiting movietickets.com and that's great for them.
yes...........something is fishy with movietickets.com
even the AMC site that's not accessable officially says this
but yet you can grab them on movietickets? hahahaha
it seems you are paying a site in hopes they get the tickets for you!
I'm going to hold out and wait.....theres something fucked up going on.

I'm thinking movietickets.com is a fluke, as the same theater and showtime on Fandango give me a message that specifically says tickets will be available at 7PM PST/ 10PM ET.
Edit: Same as above.

Not seeing showtimes for my theaters on movietickets
Can't wait for it to crash!
I'm gonna stick with fandango until someone confirms that they checked out on movietickets.com anytime before 10pm eastern.
They're crossed out but only because they haven't started selling them yet.

On my Northern VA theaters, the links were able to be clicked maybe for a couple minutes, now everything is struck out. So, guessing we're just seeing the sausage being made by the webdevs.
Doesn't matter, I'm holding out for Alamo. Then a couple theaters on Fandango. Then the Movieticket ones.

That got you wet though.
oh really? Is that why they are selling tickets before the official theatre websites are?
hmm, I don't see that for me. What state/city are you? What happens when you click the buy tickets button, can you select a time and buy them?

Managed to get three tickets to the local Regal while the purchase link on movietickets was still active, Only way I could make the purchase was with paypal. Thirteen seats already gone.

Movietickets had a link on their front page, so, it's not necessarily hidden.
It's a jointly owned venture between multiple theater chain owners, including Hollywood Media Corp, National Amusements, Cineplex Entertainment, Marcus Theatres, Regal Entertainment Group, Viacom, and Time Warner that has been around since 2000. It's not a third party site, it's a direct purchase service owned by the theaters themselves.
Obviously someone threw the switch early, but if your theater is on there and you can buy a ticket, do it.
ah, ok.

Gonna TRY and book 3 showings at the only theater here with reserved seating. Then the rest of that week I'm just gonna watch it at the small theater down the street. I know I'm gonna be watching this movie so many times.
I don't care!
I don't care!

Just checked out on Movietickets.com at a theatre that wasn't showing up on Fandango.
Hopefully it is legit.

Has Cinemark tickets gone up yet?
They're definitely not equivalent to Fandango in terms of user interface, no doubt.

Movietickets shows buy for my regal and all show times are crossed out, like it's sold out or something. It's the same for every theater that has the buy icon.

none of the theaters around me do fandango or movietickets. They have their own shit so that might be good or bad.

so much relief right now
don't forget theatres add more time due to demand down the road.....they will bump other movies to basically one showing if they need to, because if the tickets are selling they want it on as many screens as possible.....so this is just the first wave of tickets.
I know my theatre has 16 screen and only a total of 4 times are there.....I remember for furious 7 they also only had 4......by the time Friday night came they had a showing every 15 minutes.

So just an actual note I'm seeing on a ticketing page now. This is for R/C Theaters in mid-atlantic region.
"Tickets for Star Wars: The Force Awakens An IMAX 3D Experience will be available for purchase on Monday, October 19, 2015, beginning at 7PM PST/10PM ET"
