Has anyone been able to buy tickets past 11/04, better yet 10/28?

It seems that whoever's promoting the movie is in a rush to get everyone to see it within the first 48 hours. There will be simultaneous pre-screenings worldwide on Oct, 27, even in small towns, not just 15 big cities. I bought my tickets for 12am on Oct. 27, but I haven't heard of anyone who has been able to buy tickets for screenings past 11/04 (and that person could be lying)? Is there anyone who has been able to buy tickets for late screenings?

movietickets.com shows available shows past the 4th - at least where I live.

ok. Just making sure. Thanks.

I'm in USA/Virginia. My listings ran 10/28 - 11/5. I chose 10/28 and 10/31. I'm assuming that people could purchase for a showing within their two week period. Hopefully all goes smoothly for those who want to purchase their tickets.

where i live i was able to get them for 10/27.

I live in a small town in Denmark and it seems like the interest in the movie is limited. Only 10 tickets are sold for the 28th at 6pm and 4 tickets for the 28th at 8:30pm... Strange

Someone else in Germany (I think) mentioned slow ticket sales. I find that odd. I just knew that ticket sales worldwide would be fast and sellout quickly. I haven't heard any totals for the weekend box office results yet.

slow ticket sales? that is surprising. makes me kind of sad...but then again, it's good for those who wanna see the movie but haven't been able to get their tickets yet.

In my town (Germany), not many tickets were sold. I'm confused.

I bought one for Nov 5th and one for Oct 28th.

I have a ticket for 10/28 at 11AM, first show after the midnight show and they told me that they still have plenty of seats available for that time slot. I find this strange since it is the first day -- I thought that these tickets would be selling like hotcakes.

And I found this at : http://www.nydailynews.com/entertainment/movies/2009/09/28/2009-09-28_movie_tickets_a_sales_hit_for_michael_jackson.html#ixzz0SQTthjRh


"New York showings aren't sold out yet. Tickets can be purchased at any major movie ticketing Web site, or at the movie's site, www.thisisit-movie.com."

I'm in Houston and just bought one for October 28th.

Odd indeed!

If ticket prices had been inflated, I would expect slow sales.

I was very surprised that ticket pricees remained the same. For me $7.50 + $1.00 (online fee) so I decided to get tickets for a 2nd night 10/31.

same here, i've only seen the trailer on tv once. kinda odd, considering the tickets are on sale now.

I have not seen the trailer outside of the MTV VMAs premier. I was listening to my car radio last week and heard it once.

I have my ticket for 11/2 - this will be my 5 days holiday event - just three tickets sold for this show - but the place I wanted to have was already sold (for the next day, too - perhaps our three die hard fans in Koblenz have the tickets for each evening *g*)...

In our kino no big run - so if someone needs a tickst for last minute, Kinopolis Koblenz is the key ...won't be a lot of people watching it here, I think...

Well, I wish for all of you that your theories are true - I closed that case for myself - just want to see, if you are right against all my believes ...(and a kino is much more comfortable than a mass event in London and I get it right in front of my door - so my share with This Is It at last *g*) ...

hi to all of you,
I' m from Germany and I found also only tickets to be sold till the 4th
November. I purchsed tickets for the 31st October and 4th November. I bought them online on 27th 0.30 a.m. and was very surprised that there were plenty of them to get in the afternoon that day, but I am going to check that again this evening.

hi again,
I found out that for the 28th 18.30 ( 7.30 p.m.= 21 tickets were sold, for 8.30 p.m.76 tickets and for the 11 p.m. performance none-
I was so afraid not to get a ticket because I've read that fans in the USA started to wait in front of the movie theaters 2 days before they started to sell the tickets and the odd thing is that I had to try it several times because the website always broke down and I had to try it again and again
STRANGE

I have tickets for oct28 (premiere event), oct31, and nov7. Yesterday I wasn't able to purchase tickets after nov4, but today I was.

I live in Northern Ireland and my ticket is for 30th oct. That's the first night it is shown here, so the woman in the ticket office say. I was a bit disappointed about that as I am going to have to stay away from here for 2 days as not to spoil the surprise.

I'm from Australia (NSW), and I have a ticket for the 28th @ 9pm, the first and only session for that day at my cinema (w/ no sessions available after 4/11). Around 140 tickets have been sold for that session so far, which is a positive showing. I'm hoping to go again on the 31st or the 1st Nov.

Yes Ive bought two. One for the 28th, and one for the 2nd
