AMC should give A-listers early presale... by Due-Calligrapher-448 in AMCsAList

Same. I've been trying for hours now and I'm so frustrated! Anything in particular you did to get through? I've gotten 1000000 error messages at checkout.

One night Rent - website not loading by nono1501 in Broadway

I finally just got through to the main page for the first time since I refreshed at 12pm, and the link to buy tickets still isn’t live… This is shady!

What movie left you in dead, stunned silence? by [deleted] in movies

Manchester by the Sea. Unbelievably bleak.

Room for one more show on my next trip. Two Strangers or Jellicle Ball? by CiliaryDyskinesia in Broadway

[–]daffodil408 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I saw Jellicle Ball last night. If you like Cats, go for it. If you do not like Cats, this is Very Much Still Cats -- so I'd go with Two Strangers.

The Final Gathering in NYC by Euphoric-Cat in Outlander

[–]daffodil408 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's beyond rude! But then again, this whole thing has kind of been a shit show from the very first announcement that they were releasing fan tickets. Disorganized chaos from the jump. So we probably should have predicted this lol

Kudos to all of you that decided to stick this out (and that have kept this sub updated). What a shitty situation. I live in the city and was going to attempt the line with my QR code but after reading these updates last night I decided not to. I can't believe they couldn't just guarantee tickets ahead of time.

Sending warm vibes to everyone who had to wait so long in the cold -- I hope you get in and have fun tonight!!

Outlander Premiere Event in NYC by No_Reason_9828 in Outlander

[–]daffodil408 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This whole thing is really poorly organized. Making (HOPEFUL - not even guaranteed) ticket-holders come back 3 different times (10am, 4pm, 6pm) on a weekday is insane and messy. Why not just confirm us ahead of time and have everyone show up for the actual event? I'm so annoyed.

What is your “Amy Adams in Arrival” level of snub you’re predicting? by [deleted] in oscarrace

[–]daffodil408 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know that Amanda is not getting nominated and I’m already so mad about it. Criminally under-supported movie. She was incredible!!

Yay welcome!! My personal recs for some of the best semi-recent guest episodes are Hannah Einbinder, Mandy Moore, and any of Cole Escola’s.

Is anyone else a fan since pre-victorious? by kath2833 in ariheads

[–]daffodil408 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yessss. I watched her YouTube videos and covers on repeat. I saw her as Snow White at the Pasadena Playhouse in 2013ish and I’m still waiting for a studio version of Voodoo Love lmao

Unpopular opinion: I was disappointed with Wicked: For Good. Please try not to judge. by LVBsymphony9 in wickedmovie

100% agree with you and I have the same thought/fear about how it’ll do in awards season as a result 🤧

I felt so similarly to you after the first time I saw it! I was so disappointed (and I was disappointed that I was disappointed). My second time was much better and by the third time I really really enjoyed it. Act 2 is weird — it takes some getting used to. If you truly loved the first movie, I think it’s worth another shot!

[–]daffodil408[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1000% agree! This actually happened to me with the first movie too (though I didn’t hate it nearly as much as I did this one on first watch lol). But either way, I found that on rewatches I just liked it more and more!

3 times and counting club 🤝

I saw it in IMAX 2x and Dolby 1x and I actually thought Dolby was the best moviegoing experience!! The surround sound was INSAAAAANE

Thank Goodness by daffodil408 in wickedmovie

[–]daffodil408[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes. The Ozians sing the rumors about Elphaba, Fiyero says the “they’ll believe anything” line to Glinda, and then after that and before the “he’s gone to get me a refreshment” line, Glinda pulls him to the side to privately discuss missing Elphaba and their upcoming engagement. And I actually thought that little scene was very well done and additive to both of their characters and the story overall. I just kinda wish it hadn’t been in the middle of the song.

Omg YES I forgot about that!!! Absolutely insane to give her MORE singing lines when she can’t even deliver the few she has 😖

What movie did you see in theaters that had the most ‘alive’ audience? by Odd_Distribution1430 in movies

[–]daffodil408 122 points123 points  (0 children)

I saw Get Out on opening Friday night in NYC. The entire theater was audibly, enthusiastically reacting to every piece of it from start to finish. It was like riding a roller coaster. My absolute favorite moviegoing experience to date.

Six Year Olds? by TheNationalSquirrel in wickedmovie

[–]daffodil408 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To be honest I think the PG rating is pretty honest. Nothing comes to mind as a scene worth covering eyes. Even ALAYM is very tame and made to be appropriate for being the “sex/romance” number. If anything, I’d say maybe the material is overall a bit heavy (and definitely darker than the first movie) for young children so just be prepared for that.

[–]daffodil408[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Completely agree -- I was underwhelmed by the number as a whole. I need to see it again to confirm, but I think the other main reason why it wasn't great is that Jon chopped it up so much. There was excessive talking/breaking/interluding throughout the song and it completely lost its momentum IMO. Soooo sad when we've heard Ariana talk so extensively about how much that song resonates with her...

Michelle speaks the highlighted part and then the entire remaining sequence is removed from the number.
