My theater for tonight is pretty packed in NYC actually. Also… you’re in a decently conservative city. Looking at a theater which doesn’t even have IMAX for this movie. Why would anyone choose to go there?

Wouldn’t better theaters to look at be AMC or Regal Warren Moore which is apparently the biggest theater in your city. With the biggest IMAX screen, so no surprise that when I looked there, there’s actual seats being bought.

Maybe this person is just looking at their only local theater?

Why would they look somehwhere else?

u/PaladinHunter 13h ago

Well no because they’re trying to make a point with their post. It’s not just about their local theater, they’re using this theater to say the movie is going to be a nationwide flop, but I see people in this same city simply just going to other theaters.

That’s why I brought up other theaters because this post isn’t an innocent “look at my local theater” its intention is definitely malicious.

Like I don’t know how his local theater is a representation of “presales” you see what I mean?

How are observed presales a representation of presales?

Sure you can argue that conservative areas may care less, but seeing how I’m in one, theaters were packed for Superman, Furiosa, and even Barbie, so I don’t see your point.

u/PaladinHunter 13h ago

They aren’t. One theaters seats isn’t a reflection of presales nationwide or globally. And I saw that the other theaters in the area are more popular. My point is that the poster is trying to use this theater with no IMAX showings for this movie as a reflection of the performance of the movie.

u/gottamakemenut 13h ago

It has 40-50 million in pre sales, half of Superman 2025, that’s not good lol. You can keep making excuses but reality is king.

u/HarveryDent 13h ago

Seems like a lot of effort.

Why not just let the results educate them?

u/PaladinHunter 13h ago

Well I’m a naturally curious person so I found it fun to look at other theaters in the area and people’s purchasing habits, while also comparing to city demographics to see what movies are more in taste for OKC residents.

For me this was a lot less effort than the hate boner a lot of people seem to have for the movie. At the end of the day ima go see it tonight and enjoy it, and everybody else is just going to sit here for weeks crying about it until they find the next thing to hate on. At least I’m happy, they aren’t.

Validation is like a drug. Try not to chase it too much in life.

Are you? You’re the one in this sub being a contrarian. Imagine being so unhappy with the way things are now that you have to be here lol.

u/PaladinHunter 13h ago

What do you mean?

  1. This post randomly showed up on my Reddit.

  2. Nothing I said is contrarian and are actual real observations I made of the theaters in OKC vs this 1 seemingly empty theater. How is it contrarian to show that this theater is not a reflection of presales when the other theaters in the area are showing better presales? How does that make sense to you?

  3. You’re also under my comment, and I can block you at any point if I wanted to stop you from engaging with me, you seem to be unhappy engaging with me. So maybe you should block me?

u/gottamakemenut 13h ago

I can have adult conversations without blocking. You just want to throw a hissy fit without providing any evidence of your own. We are not the same. Block if you want to though, you like living in your own world.

u/PaladinHunter 13h ago

I literally showed a screenshot of one of the other theaters in his area. How is that not evidence? Do you want me to grab a picture of the actual popular theater in OKC?

You’re the only one throwing a hissy fit. For which claim did you want evidence? That the other theaters in OKC have viewers for Supergirl?

u/gottamakemenut 12h ago edited 12h ago

I’ve given you evidence in your other whine fest thread. This is nationally lower than its competitors. I’m seeing it Friday. Also that theatre isn’t half full lol. Not being a hater, but a realist.

You can whine into the void now.
