Santikos sold me tickets for the 17th at 10:50 PM, but the trailer says the 18th. I'm not fucked, am I?

Ive beeen trying since 7. I don't think it really matters when you tried.
Thanks for the heads up. Decided a few days ago to go into media blackout mode, but with all of the internet blowing up about the trailer I've found my resolve wavering.
My IMAX doesn't seem to be connected to fandango or any mass sale ticket site like that so only people who live around here were accessing its site, not the entire country.

I'm thankful for Wehrenberg theatres in the area - I was able to get tickets while AMCtheatres.com and MovieTickets and Fandango were all down.
Weird... The website was down for me, but the app worked. I mean, it was slow but it worked.
Got them just before the trailer aired.

Nope, 17th is the 'real' first day; Disney doesn't do strictly midnight showings anymore, they do 7pm showings the night before instead.

So cinemark is loading. They don't offer reserved seating so I'm passing. I'd rather just not go than wait in a line for five hours

I said the same thing but I just couldn't help myself. I had to watch it.

Are the advanced tickets only for the 17th? I want to ensure I see this Christmas day.

I cannot believe this
Everything is selling out instantly. I got lucky and managed to snag 2 tickets on Dec 17 at 10:15 PM. Went back 30 secs later to buy 2 more for that showing and the entire theatre was sold out.
IMAX showings are all sold out, every seat, even the front rows.
This is INSANE
It took me 40 minutes to get my tickets on Cineplex

Ended up getting me and my friends tickets for a closed caption version on Friday... It was either that or no movie... I mean subtitles probably won't be that bad. Hell I don't even really mind them. I'm one of those people (which maybe the majority but idk), who still turn on subtitles in games even when they're in english.
I mean I would doubt it but CC versions still have sound... right?

Doesn't CC just mean hearing impaired can use a special device or something? I'm positive I've been to CC movies before with sound and no captions on the screen.

Should I take my three year old to see this? That seems irresponsible.

YES got middle seats at studio movie grill. My three hour quest is over. Now it's time to watch the trailer over and over and play with my star wars toys.
Same in Montreal. I hope I didn't just let the Forum theater nearby sell out for nothing

that's the long game. it and many other movies already beat avatar in the short one.
Huh. Strange. I assumed it would be everyone has subtitles since it's CC but if not, that's great!

Oh man, I just bought $370 worth of tickets, cause I kept finding better times.
I hope they have a good return policy...

Don't take my word for it lol.
EDIT: Not sure where you are, but in Canada Cineplex theatres have something called CaptiView (I believe) that provides captions for hearing impaired.

Can't wait for this movie, but one thing has been bothering me since the initial reveal, and that's the downed Star Destroyer. I can't tell if it's just a work in progress, or if that's how it's actually going to look in the movie. It doesn't actually look like it's a three-dimensional object, and looks like it's green screened and completely flat to me.
The lighting is just entirely OFF, unless there's a magical sandstorm that is only taking place in the background. Or hell, maybe it's just a liberal application of the dreaded Chromatic Aberration.

It's the only real game. Best OW and best pre-sales figures and best PG13 domestic or for a film in December and the like are all attempted bragging rights to make up for the fact that it hasn't hit the only record that matters.

Got marathon tickets at Bridgeport for the 16th, plus a set of three IMAX tickets for that Saturday at Lloyd Center. Fortunately I was on when the tickets went up early, and completed the sale before Fandango sent out alerts.
at this rate, this shit gonna hit a billion opening weekend
