Superman Returns free movie ticket not on pack!
Not sure where to put this, but I wanted to let you all know. My girlfriend just came back from Circuit City with Justice League Season 2 and Superman: Animated Series Vol 3. Each one is supposed to have an art cell on pack PLUS a free Superman Returns movie ticket.
Justice League had the movie ticket but no art cell, while Superman Volume 3 had an art cell but no movie ticket, and now we have to drive BACK to Circuit City to find out what wrong.
This is a fiasco, in my opinion, and Im disappointed... PLEASE make sure to check your DVDs before you leave the store!!
UPDATE: The local Circuit City, NONE of the Superman Animated Volume 3's included the ticket, from what they saw. What they did was they just opened two other DVD's and gave me a ticket and an art cell out of those and told me it was a mistake in the ad but since it's their fault they helped me out.
Even weirder, my girlfriend told me they opened Krypto the Superdog which came with BOTH the art cell and the movie ticket, as advertised, and gave me the bonuses.
Here's another heads up: The DVD's with the free things are MARKED that way on the package. She told me Krypto was marked for BOTH the art cell AND the movie ticket. My Justice League was marked for the ticket but no art cell, and vice versa with Superman.
Even though, according to CC and others, all these things are SUPPOSED to come with the movie ticket, if it's not marked on the packaging it's not on there!

Luckily my gf noticed the Vol 3 said nothing about the ticket on the wrapper, told customer service before she left, who told her if it's not there to come back and they'll think of something.
It's early enough that everyone should see this and make sure to OPEN YOUR DVD'S IN THE PARKING LOT!!!

Remember that my Justice League Season 2 didn't have the art cell, either, so make sure you check that as well.

Hmm... this isn't good. I assumed the CC-exclusive cells would be limited and not on every pack, but I thought for sure the tickets would be on every one.
Just ordered from Amazon this morning, and they state:
•This DVD includes a Movie Money pass valued up to $10.50 for admission to see Superman Returns. Coupon valid in select theaters in the United States from June 30, 2006, to July 31, 2006.
This is on both Superman Animated 3 and Justice League 2 listings. No mention of it being limited or anything...

TVshowsonDVD.COM confirmed along time ago that every new SUPERMAN RELATED release that day was suppose to have a ticket. At Wal-Mart, NONE of them did except Season 3 &4 of 'The Adventures of Superman

Went to 2 BB and 2 CC. None of the Animated Superman copies had ticket labels on them and only one of the BB and CC had JL with a sticker for the coupon. One of the CC didn't even have anything but the Adv of Sup and Lois & Clark set.

I assumed it was "Buy a Superman DVD, get a four pack of cells at the register" as the ad made it sound. Even then, my JL Season 2 didn't include the cell.

I think this movie cash deal on the series was a big snafu at WB, I mean, why put movie cash on Kyrpto and JL but not Superman? Someone messed up big time, I think.

I hit the jackpot baby!! My Justice League vol 2 from CC had 2 tickets to Superman Returns, unfortunately, no litho cell I also bought Superman:tAS vol 3 from there, and got one litho cell, which is enough for me.
I also got Brainiac Attacks from WalMart, which included the ticket to Superman Returns, so now I can go see Superman 3 times!!!

Earlier today, I purchased "Adventures of Superman: Seasons Three & Four" at Best Buy. The outside wrapping stated there was a free movie pass inside worth up to $10.50 and a collectible reprint of a comic book cover (or something like that). However, neither of those two items was inside the DVD box. Tomorrow, I'll return to Best Buy for an exchange or a refund. I want that movie ticket for sure! Has anyone else had this problem with the S3 & S4 box set?

I bought Superman TAS season 3 and Justice League season 2 from Best Buy. Both were supposed to have the Best Buy exclusive comic book reprint and the movie ticket. None of the JL sets were marked with either, and I found a few Superman sets that were marked as having the free comic, and that is what I got.
