I thouught one of the reasons for "Can't Stop The Signal" was to help build the audience base for the movie.

I'm not knocking anyone, but it stinks that there are people who are seeing it for the third time, while other people can't see it at all (at least for now).

Here, here.

Don't know if it's the same guy, but there's an eBay seller in Nebraska selling a block of 15 Boston tkts for (so far) $182.50 with the reserve still not even met yet!

Unfortunately, the rule with eBay is that if they ARE within the state an event takes place, they can only charge $2 above the face value or be a licensed broker. If they are out of the same state as the event, they can charge as much as someone is willing to pay.

Did anyone hear about the screw-up in Boston? Fandango, which was not supposed to put the tickets up for sale until after 9am somehow posted the active link at 1230am. The tickets were gone in 5 minutes and now a large number of them are showing up, guess where? ...on eBay.

That's an interesting idea. I'd like to see what tickets would go for, @the various locations.
