Is there some way to automatically get a ticket when they go up? Or do you just have to sit at your computer and be fast? I was just curious 'cause I was waiting for the Hancock tickets in Orlando, and they were sold out in like 5 minutes, at 1 AM. S

yeah i'm curios too. because a ticket used to available for hours even days (and that's the blockbuster movie) and nowadays, they went online and 5 minutes later, it's gone. I wonder if someone using automatic computer to get tickets and sell them.

You have to be fast. When tickets to blockbusters are available, just keep refreshing when it's about 2 or 3 minutes until the tickets are available. That's what I had do to just a little while ago with Hancock tickets in Tampa (that are now sold out at 1.15a). It was frustrating, because I know that I wasn't the only person trying to get tickets and it was slow going. So, just get up (or if you don't go to sleep) and stay on the computer until the tickets are available.

I also got tickets to the Tampa Screening, and according to my Ticket I got the first ticket. The site was acting up at first, kept saying I was signed out, and the site was acting ultra slow. I freaked out, but then the tickets came up, and I got the first ticket. Then I was being nice for my friends; and made account for them, and also got them tickets to it I had the same problems as before, and I saw that I got the 8th ticket this time. Then I signed out, and saw they were sold out, so I was very lucky, and I did this right on the dot at 1 A.M.

HAHA! I love that you created an account for your friend to get him tickets... I did the same thing... I got 6 pairs of tickets for the Oviedo screening of Hancock, and I got 2 for the Orlando screening. And the site was DEFINITELY messing up. I was getting so frustrated, the way it kept signing me out.

I thought I was the only one..
YEah I was wondering the same thing, both my husband and I were trying for GET SMART, it signed us both out. We didnt get tickets, maybe they need to do something about that, It really is FRUSTRATING.

Why so greedy?
I don't think it is cool that people make accounts for all their 'friends'. It's abuse of a good thing and not fair to people who take only one set of tickets for themselves. And people who stay up all night to get a movie ticket are losers who need to get a life. And the person who got tickets for multiple cities for the same movie is a SUPER LOSER!

aww
hey, why get tickets to all three screenings? some of us have school and only have certain nights free, meaning we can only even try for one of the nights. let us enjoy some of the fun, too.

HMMM...
How do you know when the passes are going to be made available? Is there somewhere that shows when the passes for what movies are going to be posted?
