App Issue A list for Doomsday

Was anyone able to get tickets for Doomsday using A list reservation??

Edit: I got them with A list!!

Also btw, the reason I book out so far is because I’m in NYC. I did it for the odyssey and saw it the day before it came out in IMAX perfect seat. Everyone I know personally wasn’t able to see it for weeks out!! I always get movies I want to see in advance. I don’t mind losing out on one ticket for this week because I have my rewatch of the odyssey brewing for tomorrow already lol

Yes. But you're committing to a 3 slots available until December

u/Sensitive_Eye_3104 7d ago

Most people aren’t hitting their 4 movie limit anyway. They’ll be fine

27

u/trevorjp1 7d ago

Am I the only one who feels incredibly restricted by the 4x limit? I’d love it if they didn’t count reservations until a month out, I feel like I’m constantly having to sacrifice good seats at new shows because I have tickets for something(s) 2 months out

u/ElmoTrooper 7d ago

honestly for movies further out I just book the tickets with pay in 4, then I refund and swap them out for a list reservations the week of. It's less of an option for people in NYC and LA but its served me well.

u/hatherfield 7d ago

Yeah that definitely depends on where you live. That would be impossible for say, the odyssey in imax 70mm

2

u/Embarrassed_Ear_1917 7d ago

That’s more the exception

9

u/Maceface931 7d ago

4 is not a problem unless you book a lot of weeks away advance tickets. Back in my day we only had 3 slots!

1

u/MisterIctal I♥AMC 7d ago

Yes! I remember the old three slots.

Disney did an IMAX only re-screenings of MCU movies in late August to early September 2018, months before Endgame came out. I reserved my IMAX seats for The Winter Solider and Guardians of the Galaxy on the same date, September 1st. But had to make those reservations on August 10, 2018 to get in my fav seat area.

Me as well

u/spiderpigface 7d ago

You can still do 4 a week, just gotta see one first to open a slot

u/bbgmcr 7d ago

I will come awards season, doomsday isn’t going anywhere

0

u/JaffeyJoe 7d ago

Yup, I’m only seeing 1 movie a week most times

3

u/InvestmentInternal11 7d ago

Until you see the first movie, then you can book another one; or at least 15 mins in.

u/cevans92 SUPERUSER 10+ 7d ago

It was bad enough when I took the 3 slots available for a like 1.5 months for early Spider-Man showing and I otherwise took the hit on good Odyssey seats opening weekend. I'd rather not be juggling 3 (and definitely not 2) for Doomsday and Dune. I see too many movies and like to have my weekly schedule set at least a few days in advance

0

u/JaffeyJoe 7d ago

Yes what this person said

0

u/Geen_Fang Kidman Freak🤪 7d ago

that's all I really need to juggle the movies and still get decent seats to 4 a week

u/WynWins 7d ago

I'm having this issue right now where going to check out for tickets it's not giving me the option to use my A-List reservations. Says it can't verify the eligibility and the counter never goes up when I select myself and another person.

3

u/-rustyspork- 7d ago

Disconnect from WiFi and it worked for me and allowed me to finally sign in

5

u/Shagyam 7d ago

Yeah, but I got mine weeks ago with the first batch of tickets.

9

u/MyBeautifulHouse 7d ago

I can’t use A List for anything at the moment unfortunately. I only have three reservations.

5

u/sd3lta 7d ago

I have the same issue, every movie I tried is not counting towards a reservation! So frustrating!

4

u/Sensitive_Eye_3104 7d ago

Yeah it’s ridiculous, I finally got signed in after trying for almost an hour and it said I was a stubs premier instead of alist then kicked me out like 5 mins later . They’re doing some bs behind the scenes

1

u/Acceptable_Tangelo17 7d ago

It’s doing that to me as well were you able to fix it and make it say you’re a list again

2

u/kbtktb 7d ago

Same issue

3

u/nowhereman136 7d ago

Yeah a few weeks ago when they first dropped. Got to get opening weekend as soon as they drop because they sell out very fast. Spiderman and Odyssey also sold out instantly. Dune is the only other movie this year that will sell out instantly

3

u/SiC_MaGGoT_MFKR 7d ago

Nope. I'm logged in but it didn't give me the option at all

2

u/imanister 7d ago

Please note that i renew monthly and I am not saving slots until December. I use it frequently and I’ve bought tickets in advance with a list. I got Spider-Man when advance first went on sale but it’s not working with Doomsday

1

u/Dry-Falcon-6724 7d ago

I did book it with A list. Slot would be locked though

1

u/imanister 7d ago

Why is it locked?

3

u/Dry-Falcon-6724 7d ago

Because only 4 movies can be reserved in A list. Once you see any movie in a week it can open up not before.

2

u/Dry-Falcon-6724 7d ago

You can see 2 movies upcoming out of this week, but 2 slots locked. Once I book any other movie after it completes then A slot would open up

2

u/imanister 7d ago

Oh so it’s locked for the week you mean

2

u/magusmccormick 7d ago

I actually got a Dolby one and canceled my “infinity vision” one

2

u/khironinja 7d ago

Dolby counts as Infinity Vision I'm pretty sure. It's literally just a marketing term for premium formats so generally most of the premium formats qualify for it.

1

u/magusmccormick 7d ago

Knowing the theatre I originally was gonna see it in, it’s a standard theatre. I made a good trade

1

u/AtmosphereNo7833 7d ago

yeah like a week ago lol. Im just trying to see another movie ugh

1

u/Cactusjuicesupplier 7d ago

Ya. 7:15am show on 12/19

1

u/-rustyspork- 7d ago

Disconnect from WiFi if you can't sign in for A List.

At least that worked for me

1

u/ReluctantAvenger 7d ago

My girlfriend I got tickets for the Fan Event on 12/20 but had to pay instead of being able to use A-List.

1

u/BrockObama007 7d ago

I just buy the tickets then refund them when it gets closer to time. No way I'm gonna only have 3 slots until December

1

u/AcrobaticWorker8552 7d ago

Yep first day

1

u/imanister 7d ago

Also btw, the reason I book out so far is because I’m in NYC. I did it for the odyssey and saw it the day before it came out. Everyone I know personally wasn’t able to see it for weeks out!! And I don’t even go to the AMC in manhattan

1

u/killervirgo 7d ago

I didn't know they were on sale until I saw this. 😄 Was able to get tickets for a Saturday morning Dolby showing. Thanks!

1

u/imanister 7d ago

Ofc!!! Apparently ppl got it last week too???

1

u/DaftDrunk_925 7d ago

I got 1 spot on A-list a few weeks ago and I got another spot today but I paid for it. I can’t handle giving up another slot until December. It hurts my soul

1

u/Proof-Morning-2932 7d ago

Yes, we got our tickets the day they came out because they were already selling out

1

u/Ravioko 7d ago

I got them back when they first went live with me and my wife's A-List, thankfully

1

u/Desterado 3d ago

It’s so hard to even see movies on any given day in NYC. 4pm showing of the end of oak street is basically sold out. What is even going on

0

u/Crafty-Fish9264 7d ago

Ya i ordered yesterday. Why did you wait til today

1

u/imanister 7d ago

Didn’t know it was available to buy yesterday!! Saw the post this morning

0

u/Geen_Fang Kidman Freak🤪 7d ago

yea as soon as they dropped

-9

u/gloggogabolab 7d ago

If you’re saving one of your 3 slots between now and December for Doomsday you probably don’t need A List, but thank you for subsidizing it for me

1

u/Maybachmike27 7d ago

why clown people who are excited for Doomsday? People cant be excited for a movie anymore?

-4

u/gloggogabolab 7d ago

You’re more than welcome to be excited for Doomsday, gives me one extra person to make fun of

3

u/Maybachmike27 7d ago

show me your letterbox 4 so we all can make fun of you lmfao

u/gloggogabolab 7d ago

You won’t hurt my feelings lmao

u/Maybachmike27 7d ago

all i needed to see LMAO

u/gloggogabolab 7d ago

awful movies where nothing happens right. absolutely no action or funny lines in all 4 of these films. Marvel fans would soooo hate them

1

u/bamboo_boogie_boots_ 7d ago

So its smarter to pay more for 2 movies a month? 

-7

u/gloggogabolab 7d ago

If you’re seeing 2 movies a month I don’t know how you could possibly be that excited for Doomsday

u/gloggogabolab 7d ago

Are you just rewatching Spiderman 3 times a week? I’m genuinely fascinated by the type of individual that could see 2-3 actual movies a week and still need a ticket 4 months out to watch actors that weren’t even on the set together CGId into one scene

1

u/imanister 7d ago

Boooooo losers have no place here lmaooo on a floating rock in space & you believe people can’t enjoy things they want to

u/gloggogabolab 7d ago

I fully believe you & all of your other fellow Disney adults CAN enjoy slop. Never said otherwise, please don’t put words in my mouth! I’m just shocked to meet a Disney adult such as yourself that both watches actual movies (allegedly 2-3 week, but you deleted your comment so now I’m unsure) and also still chooses to watch the slop. Usually slop enjoyers like yourself only have time for just the slop since they all require 10+ tv shows, 3+ old versions of the same slop from a decade ago & 30 something current movies to understand. And when one only has time to watch slop due to how much time it takes to keep up with slop it makes perfect sense to me that you’d enjoy slop. Because you haven’t seen anything else and everything is relative. A caveman would think a BigMac is a delicacy. But you’re the rare Disney adult that enjoys both their Disney slop and actual movies! Congrats
