Transformers Revenge of the Fallen Selling Out

What do the critics know as MichaelBay.com has provided a mini-update the US debut of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen starting in just hours at 12:01am.

Hundreds of tomorrow night’s midnight show times for Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (debuting June 24 at 12:01 a.m.) are already sold out across the country. A few facts from Fandango below:
- Sold-out midnight show times (on Tuesday night/Wednesday morning) can be found all across the U.S.A., in cities such as New York, San Francisco, Washington, D.C., Chicago, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Albuquerque, Denver, Houston, Nashville, Orlando, Colorado Springs, Tulsa, Fresno and Buford, Georgia (good thing got my tickets weeks ago).
- Exhibitors are continuing to add 3:45 a.m. or 4:00 a.m. show times on Wednesday morning to meet the fan demand (verified my local theatre added show times).
- Currently, the film is selling twice as many tickets on Fandango as the original Transformers sold at the same point in that film’s sales cycle (two days before release date).
- The movie currently represents 87% of today’s ticket sales
- And as we noted yesterday, TF 2 showings at 500+ theaters in China are sold out 1.5 weeks in advanced.

  1. I know in St. Augustine FL, they now have three showings booked at 12 am not instead of the one that was origonally posted. I had hoped to hit the midnight showing, but can't due to work. I did managed to snag tickets for tomorrow evening at 7:30 pm instead.

  2. Maine has one IMAX (albeit the litter one) in the whole state, and even when I live in the city it's located in, I could not for the life of me get the tickets for the midnight showing. Totally unfair. D:

    But I'll be in there for the first showing when they open. c:

    It's like the Dark Knight all over again..only with GIANT ROBOTS!

    It seems like all around the globe unless you get your tickets early you won't be seeing it when you want.
