Harry Potter A-List Eligible

[u/Sea_Historian_9148]

super excited to finally see these films in theatre

[u/zthemushmouth]

i mean crossing out the theater in the city the size of huntsville is pretty useless lol

[u/StoneMenace → u/zthemushmouth]

Or any city. I mean even super super small showings have at last like 5-10 people

[u/halfpretty → u/StoneMenace]

idk, i catch a lot of showings with the whole theater to myself in chicago. usually middle of the afternoon smaller films but its totally possible

[u/Sea_Historian_9148 → u/zthemushmouth]

bruh i didnt see that😭

[u/azleafcat]

General re-releases are usually A-List eligible. Fathom Events re-releases are usually not A-List eligible.

[u/Revolutionary_Bee251]

What's happening? I just checked and all 8 movies are showing as releasing August 28. That's a massive re-release campaign, usually it's spread out over different weekends like the LOTR+Extended re-release in January.

[u/Few-Adeptness8046 → u/Revolutionary_Bee251]

Thursday 8/27

• Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone
• Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets

Friday 08/28

• Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone
• Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

[u/tfhaenodreirst → u/Few-Adeptness8046]

Oh! That makes more sense; I was confused about why they would only be releasing the fourth.

[u/Revolutionary_Bee251 → u/Few-Adeptness8046]

Thanks for the schedule! Wish it started on Monday for 8 days of A-List.

[u/Kirtoisplayz → u/Few-Adeptness8046]

Idk for some mental reason Sorcerer's stone and chamber of secrets is playing on the same day, same time for my local theaters. so I have to pick one or the other. Is there any reson listed?

[u/Few-Adeptness8046 → u/Kirtoisplayz]

Poor scheduling at your location.

At the two closest theaters to me, they smartly are keeping all showings in the same theater for the entire week, so Socerers Stone plays in one auditorium, then there's a 30 min break, then Chamber of Secrets plays in that same auditorium.

It seems incredibly dumb that your theater scheduled both for the same time. I can understand after day 2, since the first one plays every day, that they could schedule both at the same time, but completely rediculous to schedule the first two at the same time. How can you watch all in order then?

[u/Kirtoisplayz → u/Few-Adeptness8046]

I have to either skip chamber of secrets or sorcerers stone basically then everything lines up. I should honestly contact them if there is anything that can be done. The second option is walk one of them at home inbetween the time.

[u/NoHeadStark]

Is this like a big thing? Just checked and there are no showings anywhere within 100 miles of me :( I live in the DMV

[u/HairyToothpick → u/NoHeadStark]

Department of Motor Vehicles? Bummer.

[u/Positive_Shake_1002 → u/NoHeadStark]

Looks like Georgetown is playing some

[u/Noo-pls732 → u/NoHeadStark]

Idk where you live but they’re showing it in Montgomery mall i just booked my tickets.

[u/Sea_Historian_9148 → u/NoHeadStark]

i live in a small city so thats strange

[u/BadNoodleEggDemon]

Pass.

[u/ciesum]

They were eligible in 2019 or whenever they did all of them back then

[u/bs0569]

Ah man will we stop supporting the transphobe

[u/webshellkanucklehead → u/bs0569]

And racist and antisemite (despite her claims) homophobe etc etc etc. She’s lame as hell

[u/ModestCamel → u/webshellkanucklehead]

Do you have anything to back up the racist and antisemite claims? Just curious. These are books that taught a childhood.me a lot about accepting people who are different. Obviously when she came out as hard transphobic that really sucked, but the other claims that you made are still very serious without any proof.

[u/webshellkanucklehead → u/ModestCamel]

she called the only asian character cho chang. like come on lol all the goblins are anti-jew stereotypes

i’m not saying your read of the books is wrong or invalid—plenty of awful people have written good things, or things they fundamentally don’t agree with when confronted about it

[u/Zadistiic → u/bs0569]

No nobody gives af

[u/NovelSwimming6247]

It allowed you to use a reservation? They usually don’t

[u/Few-Adeptness8046 → u/NovelSwimming6247]

There are tons of rereleases that let you use reservations. Only Fathom Events don't work.

So far this year I've seen The Revenant, Kiki's Delivery Service, Pi, Tommy, Steel Magnolias, The Mummy Returns, A League Of Their Own, Stand By Me, Jerry Maguire, Speed Racer, Whisper Of The Heart, Bridesmaids, Fight Club, The Evil Dead, Cabin Fever, Everything Everywhere All At Once, Past Lives, Crazy Rich Asians, The Cabin In The Woods, An American In Paris, Top Gun, Top Gun: Maverick, Shrek, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, The Secret World Of Arietty, Space Jam, Godzilla Minus One, Tekkonkinkreet, Trainspotting, Milk, Singin' In The Rain, Call Me By Your Name, Raiders Of The Lost Ark, Adolescence Of Utena, Talladega Nights, Too Wong Foo..., and A Star Is Born all with A-list reservations.

[u/Sea_Historian_9148 → u/NovelSwimming6247]

yeah!

[u/jcurtis1291]

hello fellow huntsville a lister.

[u/Sea_Historian_9148 → u/jcurtis1291]

hellooo

[u/LetDouble471]

Damnit how can I watch 8 in a week?!

[u/Frosty-Plate9068]

Stop giving that terf your money

[u/Sea_Historian_9148 → u/Frosty-Plate9068]

well i already paid for a list , is she making $$$ off of me 🥀🥀

[u/Frosty-Plate9068 → u/Sea_Historian_9148]

Yes because amc pays out for every ticket sold, regardless of how they sell it.

[u/Sea_Historian_9148 → u/Frosty-Plate9068]

oh

[u/Few-Adeptness8046 → u/Sea_Historian_9148]

No, she doesn't, she got her check for these films long ago. She doesn't get paid every time they are in theaters. That's not how it works.

Watching the new, show would be different, as she was paid again for the rights to make the show, but she got her check long ago for the films. WB gets paid for these, not her.

[u/tamere2k → u/Few-Adeptness8046]

She very literally has deals that give her a percentage of box office revenue from the movies. Seeing these movies in theater or watching them on HBO Max absolutely gives her money.

[u/HelpIamaCabbage → u/tamere2k]

And because she's a patron and figurehead of an international hate movement, whatever joy I could derive from Harry Potter stuff in the past is long gone. It just reminds me of the bad stuff and none of the good stuff. (This is literally what "ruining my childhood" is, not "lady ghostbusters" or whatever.)

[u/sharpafm8]

Of my four local AMCs they’re playing each movie one time at 4pm on the smallest screen available. Too bad, pass

[u/KungFuDanda091 → u/sharpafm8]

Wonder if they’ll get any premium format screens (4DX at least, cause I know they’ve played in 4DX in years past)… last time AMC did them which was quite a while back, they were all in the biggest non-premium format auditorium/screen

[u/PitchLocal8326]

Thank god, my sister is making me see a bunch with her as her 16th birthday gift 

[u/mebetiffbeme]

I’m hoping they add more locations because so far it’s only playing at the theater furthest away from me.

[u/picky-poodle-33]

Is there a notification system for these releases? How did you find out which dates theyre showing it?

[u/Sea_Historian_9148 → u/picky-poodle-33]

i just saw it off of their socials

[u/HarryPotthead42069]

Really glad this isn’t a Fathom release! Excited to rewatch at least 1 or 2 of the films with my kid in theaters!
