Re: ALERT: AMC Theaters have posted 30.06

I realize this thread is pretty old, but with the summer "blockbuster movie season" approaching, I think it might be a good opportunity to make a point to corporations like this.

How much organization would it take to get a large group together and buy advance tickets for a show that is guaranteed to be a sell-out? Show up 5 minutes prior to the start... And then "notice" the signs.

Since they are barring you from entry based on something that was not evident when you purchased the tickets (I'm thinking online advance purchase), they have to give everyone a refund. And now they have an empty screening that would have otherwise been sold out. And, it is too late for them to resell those seats.

100 people could pull it off (30 of us and our families) at an individual theater. They would lose the $800 in admission along with all the concessions. Pretty severe hit for them. And I guarantee that there would be theater owners screaming at corporate. And those voices will carry much more weight than the emails that we send to their PR folks.

Just a thought...
