Same here. Looking at Toronto locations only two locations right now, and they are arent at some of the bigger (Yorkdale, Scotia, Yonge and Dundas) like they usually are. Hopefully we see more pop up. But yea its hard to track when the ones I track arent doing the presales

Its such a joy sometimes dealing with Canadian box office stuff isnt it? edit I really do enjoy doing the counts But man they make it......interesting sometimes.....

Slowly gearing back up now to getting some more numbers, finding a balance between on and off puter things. Its still a bit sticky and just trying to do whatever I can. As for the whole "dbox/non dbox seats"-Im musingwith my counts just keeping a separate track of total "dbox" seats and "non dbox" with the two seat totals obviously coming to total seat amount. That might be something slowly worked in though over time, still just easing my way back in here.

It would certainly be an interesting perspective. Its always a bit of a challenge when US says "tickets on sale now!" and Canada is like ".....nahhhh". I worked for a Canadian theatre many many moons ago, just usual floor stuff. Still was an insight to see how my managers were always kind of talking/haggling/trying to figure out how many shows they would get, how long a run ect (and this was LONG before Pre-sales were ever a thing). Also there might be different negotiations for films for Canada from US from same Studio. EDIT: FNAF just hit for presales for Cineplex EDIT 2: Give it some time as there is barely any theatres showing, so Ill probably take a look tomorrow where we should start seeing a more reliable amount-Wed probably even more as thats when they like doing their adding of volume.

I definitely thought FNAF would get a bigger window for Canada dates for presales. I havent figured out why the decisions being made as they are (never have really with them LOL). Maybe they (whoever "THEY" are) felt that Canada wasnt as a big a market? Just pure speculation on my part. Only thing I can think of is MAYBE they were thinking Marvels was going to have a bigger presale and so wanted to hedge their bets as to their inventory. Again, pure speculation on my part.

The Marvels Vancouver Canada Thurs Nov 9 # theatre #show Seats Sold Seats Rem Ttl seat Percent Vancouver Thurs 3 18 96 3900 3996 0.0240 Gosh back to some sense of normality in tracking! I will be getting Fridays included soon enough and hopefully back to cities like Calgary and Montreal soon.

I had hoped at least for App users it would stay up for the seat counts, even if website was not doing it. Im slowly building up some excel stuff where I keep the the max seats available, along with it being AVX-IMAX ect. But its slow and even then Im pretty sure Im not getting absolutely exact numbers, more close approximate (yes I am counting those individual seats per theatre, not its not fun-but then Im weird that way lol). Its why my counts havent been as much recently (though in case of Swift now its pretty much down to "when is it a sellout") And welcome @Jsmitty-always good to have another Canadian view

Taylor Swift Fri Oct 13 Toronto Canada Toronto # theatre #show Seats Sold Seats Rem Ttl seat Percent Fri 4 13 2566 352 2918 0.8793 Yep Swift just keeps moving along nicely.

No new afternoon shows that I could see, there was what looks like two shows (2 theatres 1 show each) added for an evening show. Im surprised that the Matinees were taken out, they sold like hotcakes-I know I heard it had something to do with the Britney agents not wanting them-maybe trying to do the "limited scarcity" type thing-but money is money right?

Taylor Swift Fri Oct 13 Vancouver Canada # theatre #show Seats Sold Seats Rem Ttl seat Percent Vancouver Fri 4 11 1704 174 1878 0.9073 2 shows added. Almost all shows at 10 or less from sellout

I might have to-I do have the PC. Ill see how things play out, but may do the reach out for scripts.

So are we going to be seeing a plethora of concert films in the near future now with Swift and now Beyonce I wonder?

Yep I wondered when the APP stuff would change over to not showing sales. I do get not having that patience. Its why Im in the process now of counting seats in theatre on my pages, keeping a "total seats" for each theatre, and they being AVX/IMAX/VIP ect Im doing it on a PC so its a little easier to zoom in and count (and I am doing it in small stages, hence why I havent been posting counts lately (also real world stuff and busyness). Its a serious pain in the tush though I agree.

Saw X Vancouver Canada Thurs Sept 28 Vancouv # theatre #show Seats Sold Seats Rem Ttl seat Percent Thurs 3 7 12 1301 1313 0.0091 Getting back into the....normality of theatre counting, hoping I can start building back a bit more (Listings for Vancouver were not giving me Friday dates, just thursday)

Ill have to check again that to see if any IMAX screens. I think the access is a key thing, and I think many in concert are probably watching this (I know there are some concerts of perhaps not as visible acts they show, but not of Taylor Swift concentration). Wouldnt surprise me to see other big name/lack of access due to popularity follow in the footsteps here.

Taylor Swift Vancouver Canada Friday Oct 13 # theatre #show Seats Sold Seats Rem Ttl seat Percent Vancouver Fri 4 9 1327 141 1468 0.9039 At least 2 of these shows were like 2 away from complete sellouts. Again, the nuttiness of Cineplex with the whole removing shows (or maybe they were sold out, I just went with numbers I had with me) either way yes massive selling. May have to start looking at rare (for me) Saturday counts just to see if those numbers are pretty steady but yea, this is gonna make mucho money I think.

Okay thanks I guess Ill just post what I have, means showtimes will obviously disappear compared to my previous count. This Taylor Swift has been all sorts of just plain nutty trying to do tracking for it lol. Nice to know I wasnt just going through this surrealness alone!

Could use some advice here. Trying to do my (somewhat) tracking of Taylor Swift here in Canada, and Im noticing that my amount of shows have dropped per theatre-whereas I had 7 shows in one theatre, now there are only 3-4. Should I be assuming then those other shows just sold out and track them accordingly? It used to be that it would still (on my pc anyway) a sold out show would just show as "sold out" with the time, now it looks like its just removing that showtime entirely. Again, should I treat those that have "disappeared" compared to previous counts as "sold out" and add those numbers accordingly? I mean these shows are selling out incredibly fast/very limited seat availablity, like if a show isnt sold out, its like 80-90 percent sold at least. Like I said it doesnt help the theatre no longer lists a showtime as "sold out", it just removes it entirely.

Bit of wonkiness today getting my stuff working-so these are close approximation numbers, if Im off its not by much Taylor Swift Fri Oct 13 Calgary Canada # theatre #show Seats Sold Seats Rem Ttl seat Percent Calgary Fri 4 12 1705 649 2354 0.7242 Right now just doing Friday shows as I basically am rebuilding my eat volume for each screening, having to do a new way of doing things. What I CAN say is that these numbers may be off but not by much, most of the shows here are are 30 or less away from absolute sell outs

Thank you for correction on start time. Yea Im getting some 300 plus seat theatres in there. And like I said, slowly easing back in and Im having to manually count seats because A my phone doesnt like the Cineplex App, and B on their screen counts on website (on PC) don't show X amount of X sold anymore. So yea its kind of fun....lol

Okay so Im slowly easing my way back into stuff here...this Taylor Swift has just blown my mind. This is just for Thursday Oct 13 Vancouver. Not even friday. Easing my way back in. I just.....wow Taylor Swift Thurs Oct 13 Vancouver Canada # theatre #show Seats Sold Seats Rem Ttl seat Percent Vancouver Thurs 4 30 2644 3242 5886 0.4492 45 percent sold with over a month to go....

Yea its fair to say Ive been kind of out of the loop with some real life stuff going on. Those numbers are just....wow.

Ill post numbers in a bit as I am working them, but Vancouver anyway 35 days out more than a couple are already near sellouts-its performing like a massive tentpole. I am gobsmacked.
