The newspaper said that the tickets would go on sale today, the 18th and as the site and booking lines only open at 12:00 I guess it will be then. I was sooooo sad on Friday nights when I lost out on tickets after coming so close. Thank goodness for Harry Potter!

So in ten minutes, we're going to break their website again?

Outstanding.

I spoke to the box office at 12:05 and they had already sold out. They said it was web-sales and geeks at the box office. I can't speak for the geeks ( If I didn't live in Birmingham I would be there with them ) but the web page never got updated.

AHHHHH!

a)people picking up tickets in person. If I had known somebody in Edinburgh I could impose on that's what I would have done.

b)phones. A friend of mine phoned ahead of time to complain about last Friday, and got tickets for the Q&A and the Wednsday instead!

I think a lot of the tickets went to disgruntled customers who had got tickets in their basket but weren't able to checkout. So there would have been far fewer tickets available than first time around, plus there was only one screen up for sale this time.

That's weak. If they're not going to made available online, they should say so. I could have phoned, but I hate booking over the phone so I've been sitting watching the website instead.

Well there's still the other one that doesn't go on sale till August, but I imagine it'll go pretty quickly too when the time comes.

They had a queue at the box office and over phone, basically. I spoke to them myself at the time.

If they had offered it online, their website clearly can't cope with the box office/credit check/basket situation so it would have gone pete tong again, so they opted to do it the easy way.

STILL nothing on the website. I even have an e-mail from someone at the festival stating that they would go on sale on line at 12:00. Looks like a wait until October for me.

I wonder if they opened ACTUAL box office before the phone lines...

I agree - they actually put out a press release saying they would be selling online.

I don't think it's particularly fair to dish out tickets early to people just because they complained. I could well have complained, but I understand how difficult it is for vendors to deal with incredibly high demand so I kept my mouth shut. *sigh*

The site says that the additional wed 24th screening was soldout. Weren't we all trying to get tickets for the 23rd???

Methinks the right hand does not know what the left is doing.

My bad, it was the 24th apparently.

Haaang on. The artice at the top of this page says the 23rd, but the website says the 24th. I was SURE that it origionaly said the 23rd and the woman at the box office also said the 23rd.

Anywho, I'm done for today. I'll post if the person I was emailing at the festival gets back to me with the explanation of the no-existant web sales.

Well, according to the woman on the phone it's the 24th. But the 23rd came up in some newspaper article so I wouldn't put to much faith in it!

Hey, guys, think of it this way, if it sold out in mere minutes that is a good thing. And will send the right message to the entire world that Serenity is the movie that people want to see. Or need to see.

Tickets sold out in under 20 minutes, as I actualy got through to be told this.

Still looking for tickets, and my offer of a signed DVD box set still stands!

Hey all,
For those who got tickets or manage to, could you clear up the whole Book's name thing for certain. Those who've seen it before know where to look.

Right, But there's a thread disputing IMDB, stating other info has a different name. When I saw the film I saw what IMDB has, yet still disputed. Thus, asking for "fresh eyes" to clear it up. not asking for it to be posted here, but maybe within that thread. which already mentions both names.
