URLy klaxoned, I hit the button and waited....and waited...and waited...and refreshed...and waited and as of now still waiting for the ticket page that will never come....There has GOT to be a better way!

Yep, had the exact same problem.

...unless, of course, you are Fandango.

I'm going to take a nap.

I wasted a whole morning at work refreshing and refreshing just to get jammed up at fandango. It's hard not to be upset. This is the 3rd screening I couldn't get a ticket to.

Same here. It's pretty frustrating, and Atlanta's the only showing I can make...even if it is a 5 hour drive to get there...

I actually got as far as selecting the number of tickets and checking out, only to sit at the processing screen for ages only to have it error out.

Damn work. If it wasn't for this stupid work I have to do I'd have been there at the box office.

Did anybody here manage to get ATL tix? I wonder if it was just a few people that managed to get through the site of if they were all purchased at the box office.

I'm wondering if I wouldn't have had better luck at home...my work connection is so-so at best...

Ah well, better luck next time. But I will send a nice message to anyone on Ebay scalping tickets....:) That "ask seller a question' button thing works...:)

Same deal. Strangely, I'm not particularly angry...see my advance screenings post for more information.

I struckout again - this time I blame Steve Jobs and the fact that I'm too cheap and lazy to uppgrade to OS X. Mac OS 9 just hates any "sophisticated" web scripting so no go with MovieTickets.

What is this URLy that I keep seeing mentioned? I'll search Google of course, but like to hear a user's perspective.
