Seat selection locally was either "See it at midnight and miss work the next day to be surrounded by a bunch of screaming assholes" or "Miss work the next day and see it in the morning for less money and more peace and quiet."

I'm not avoiding assholes in the movie theater just so I can invite them into my house for a higher price. I can't scratch my balls in front of people, even if I like them. Gotta cleanup beforehand and then afterwards because wife. Can't wear pajamas. 20 people don't fit in most people's living rooms.

Nah bro.

I'm not talking about you specifically. I'm just saying why it won't be done.

I'm seeing this Thursday night with Mrs. Haus Mrs. Haus at Studio Movie Grill. Of course my work is hosting a movie night event for our customers so it's not like I'm paying for tickets.

If they offered home screenings for $100, I'd bite on that shit. Just 5 friends and it'd be worth it. Especially for a 3 hour movie that you can pause to take an emergency shit.

I like the idea but no way in fuck I'd pay $100. Double the ticket price, at the absolute max. And I'd question that.

back in the day, PPV would charge like a hundo for Tyson fights. all our friends would pool our money and half the nighborhood would be in one house drinking beers in anticipation for this 90 second event!

I would not be surprised if that wasn't an option soon. The problem is the theaters are fighting that tooth and nail and threatening not to promote/push movies for the studios if they do take that angle. Because to be honest, their best customers are ones who want a premium experience (note the push into luxury recliners, bigger screens, better sound, etc) and all those are people who usually have really nice AV setups at home. They theaters were hoping seeing things in 3D would be the huge differentiation, and they're realizing it really isn't, hasn't been, and few people really care or want that.

Got my IMAX tickets for wife and I on Wednesday April 24, 10:20 AM showing. Let the salt flow but do try to remember that's the only upside I get for living in France. :D

This is where you say you have a work thing and go by yourself then go again when your kids are there.

I want to see it, but I'd rather just take a day off and see some 10am show on a weekday vs. squeezing into a jam packed theater into a crap seat during prime time.

i dont understand the need to be "first!" to see this. i mean i will see it eventually, its going to be in a million theaters. could probably just wait for a weekday showing and watch it in an almost empty theater. its not summer yet so the kiddies will be at school. hell, you could probably get a good seat on an early saturday showing.

Spoilers will be everywhere by Saturday, likely Friday for this one. If you game with anyone, watch streams, search forums, etc you will get killed by a gay Snape who thought you were a trans Dumbledore.

I'm going to love it when you all get back here after the first showing to complain about how Captain Marvel defeated Thanos by hitting him in the dick with Mjolnir while Black Widow shoots all the gems in the gauntlet with her guns.

Then the end credits shows that Shuri is the new Iron Man, Valkerie is the new Thor and Falcon is the new Captain America. Introducing Kamala Khan as Ms Marvel!

To avoid spoilers and some people really enjoy seeing movies in a packed house. Hell Infinity War was soo much better with a crowd then just sitting at home watching it.

I've cared a lot less about opening nights, and I normally don't care about spoilers, but this is a movie a rather not have spoiled and it'll be impossible to avoid. Also, I enjoy packed theaters.
