Which movie are you looking forward to?
I actually didn’t get to see Paddington 2 in theaters so I may go for that :).
Good call! It didn’t seem to be in theaters long. I’m bummed my local MJR isn’t participating. May have to make the trek out your way!
Yeah, that’s a bummer that only some of them are participating this year.
Do you know if you can buy the tickets online the day of or if you have to go in person to get them? We tried once last year, got there 30 minutes early and they were all sold out. It was such a disappointment to my daughter. Wondering if there is any better way to do it.
You do have to purchase tickets for these special shows in-person of day-of, unfortunately. Maybe have someone grab them in the morning for an afternoon show? It’s so hard to know — sometimes it has been packed and other times, there has been plenty of room for us!
