A deliberate choice, or was there no choice at all? At my theater on opening night, if you were waiting in line for a 2D showing you had to wait in line outside in the cold. However, if you wanted see it in 3D, you could wait in line inside the nice warm building. So, to answer your question, there was definitely a choice, but with a catch.

Koray Savas 2,251 Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 I guess I'm spoiled in my area. I am 5 minutes away from both an ArcLight and Landmark, both luxury theaters with assigned seating. I'll never go to an AMC or Regal again.

nightscape94 965 Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 I have a gigantic 24 theater AMC within a 5 minute drive of my apartment. TFA is showing on 5 screens I think. Two standard, two 3D and one IMAX 3D. Opening night sold out most shows, if not all, eventually. Can't be entirely sure since I was too busy in the 7pm opening show to worry about anyone else It seems like quite a few had less options. I think I've been spoiled as well!

No. Just two very successful movies that show how old-fashioned can become immensely popular. Really a no-brainer, but the way Hollywood works since decades this means that other high-profile films will follow suit. Now we only need films without musical legacies hanging like millstones from their neck... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crocodile 8,027 Posted December 29, 2015 Author Share Posted December 29, 2015 I thought that might have been the case. But then, I'm avoiding all the SW threads at the moment. Can't stand any more of it, just too much SW everywhere. I had a couple of subject related articles planned for FOW. But in this flood, no one will notice it. So might as well just save it for later. As for the 2D showing, I am slightly tempted to see it this way. After three viewings, the film sort of exhausts its appeal. And there is very little, if anything, that I want, or need, to say about it anymore. It's not like (you're going to hate me now)... Nolan where you can find new stuff and interpret things in various ways. Or even constantly argue about the merits of it. It's Star Wars, it is what it is. Yeah, it was fun. It was fun three times. But great cinema it ain't. I happen to agree with both positive and negative reviews. They are all right... from a certain point of view. So not sure if I need to spend another $110 (converted from Pound sterling) to see it again. If you include train and cinema tickets only. Having said all that, I'm enjoying the hell out of John Williams' score. Karol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
