what are the crowds like for revolutions so far?

I ordered my tix from fandango this morning, and was wondering what time i should get there. Its an "open" theater which means that the box office is outside. any sold out showings or record numbers for tonight.

The IMAX @ The Bridge, I went to this morning (6:15am) wasn't completely full tho I suspect a lot of people didn't make it. Plus they had reserved seating so there were no lines.

I went to an 11:55am showing that was maybe half-full (the film is on eight screens at the theater near my house). A lot of people were buying their tickets for tonight through.

I went to the 6 am IMAX show this morning, and it was completely full. I even saw people walking into the screening room with chairs, so either they oversold tickets, or the free single seats were too hard to find in the crowd.

Magic Johnson, "Harlem USA"

9AM showing was pretty packed but not fully. There wasn't really a line either. It rocked though considering it was matinee prices.

Sold out at my 9:45 PM show ... people kind of lined up about 40 minutes before it started, but a lot of people showed up with about 5 minutes to spare and bitched about not being able to find seats together.

Went to the 7pm show last night. What was odd was that we got there pretty early assuming crowds. We took our seats with no problem (perfect seats), but by the time the movie started, it was packed. Crowds must have arrived late.

The 9AM show was nearly sold out, I heard. The afternoon shows were about half full(including the 5PM one I went to). The 7:30 show was nearly sold out(the other one I went to), and there seemed to be quite a crowd when I left.

Man, do I love that. Groups of 4 to 10 people were walking into my showing with less than 5 minutes to go and they looked shocked that they couldn't find seats together. It always brings a smile to my face when I see idiocy like that.

It was great... and with the reserved seating, well worth the price. Call ahead and see what seats they have available. Rows E - H, between seats 15 - 25 would put you in or near the center. I had D-11 which was a good seat, but just off center. Sound was incredible. I felt like I was in the dock along side the mechs.

The only other film I saw there was a while back, LOTR:FOTR. This looked a lot better than when i saw the Matrix on IMAX at City Walk.

great! i bought a ticket online. didn't get to choose, but i got e-11, so it should be pretty good. i was considering going to city walk also, but then it's more convenient for me to go to the bridge.

Lines were super long at the theater I went to last night. I didn't mind as I saw Mystic River and me and my friend were the only ones in that theaters.

They had showings here all night starting at midnite on Tuesday night / Wednesday morning.. I went to the 1:25pm showing Wednesday afternoon and the crowd was.. well.. not a crowd. There were maybe 30 people in the theater. I expect the crowd to be bigger during the weekend, but it's pretty light around here. Of course, they're also showing it in 4 theaters at one place, and in 4 more across town. Thus a showing starts basically every 15 minutes.
