Even the websites where early tickets can be purchased are getting surprised 의해 the rush of sales. Joel Cohen, Executive Vice President of MovieTickets.com said, "We expected 'New Moon' to be hugely 인기 when tickets went on sale... but seeing sellouts nine weeks prior to its release is unheard of." According to their data, 26% of sales at MovieTickets.com were for "New Moon," with 17 shows already sold out completely. Fandango.com also reported that "New Moon" accounted for a higher percentage of ticket sales than any movie that opened last Friday.
Currently, the first screening available is at 12:01am on Thursday, November 19th, but with demand already so high the studio could potentially add earlier showtimes.
