no thursday night previews in uk?? 🙃

Doesn't look like it. Plenty of big cinemas starting between 6am and 8am though. CRAZY show counts in 2D and 3D

And I have no local showings in 2d. Was going to order them tickets as part of a Christmas gift for my dad and stepmom... But 3d gives my dad a headache

over the whole weekend?

Presales just went up at my theater in Italy, which...surprised me? I can't remember ever getting a notification this far out here. Anyway, all shows are 3D so far.

 

EDIT: ...and a lot of theaters are showing sold out for wednesday already, which I assume is a bug with PS going up too early because it would shock me if they went out this fast as I got the e-mail, like, 10 minutes ago...

amcs around me have more than 25%  2d showings

[dignam]

Got me Ticket for 14.12 @ 20:30 o´clock in glorious 3D and HFR 😁 Never thought i would see that day 🤣

Just booked my IMAX 3D showing for friday night, 7:30pm. I am impressed they managed to fit 5 IMAX screenings in a single day, even if the final one does end at almost 3am!

 

Interestingly, Cineworld seem to be limiting one advanced booking per unlimited card (even for completely different times). Never seen that before, I was able to book two Endgame screenings in advance back in 2019, that's the only time I may have encountered it. 

 

Very few seats sold, but still there are some sold already. Plenty of showings in 3D, IMAX 3D, 2D, 2D audio described, Screen X 2D, 4DX and even a Subtitled 2D - which I haven't noticed for an English film before! Split for non-PLFs is about 50-50 3D to 2D

 

But yeah 37 showings planned for OD, and still 35 for Saturday. Cineworld definitely expecting this to be huge in the UK

Opening night IMAX 3D ticket booked! 
 

Curiously, the cinema that I’d usually go to (The Light) only has 3x 3D showings out of 18, and it’s in one of their mid-size screens 🥴

That's Cineworld's policy on all movies, not unique to Avatar 

[JustLurking]

I'll probably get one for saturday as soon as the chain stops being so damn buggy lol

Okay, never encountered it before when checking other movies. My bad on that side then

[Borobudur]

Given the marketing so far hasn't been very pro-3D, I just wonder how much 3D ticket they can sell now, purely based on goodwill on the previous Avatar's 3D experience.

I will be the same way with avatar 1. Few people will go see it in 3D and the WOM will kick in that it was the best experience they ever had 😁.

S'all good, it's been a pain in the ass to me in the past when I've been wanting to check how busy a movie is when I've already booked it 🤣
