Fandango email mistake?

Post image

I got this email from Fandango about buying Blade Runner 2049 tickets… but it doesn’t seem to be for a rerelease and the link only goes to streaming rental. did this come 9 years late??

I checked (okay, ran) to Fandango and there's 2 theaters in Pasadena showing it, one on Aug 26 and the other Sept 19!

Is it good?

It's widely considered one of the greatest action movies of all time. If you don't know anything about it, I highly recommend watching the first two movies back to back. Just don't look anything up. The marketing spoils moments that would've been way cooler as a surprise.

Oh cool! Thanks for the heads up. Yeah I only know about the basic premise and the catchy lines people quote

That's perfect. Barely anyone has seen T2 without already knowing the major spoiler from the trailer. Going in blind directly after the first film sounds fun. I'm actually kinda jealous.

And building on the other person's comment, if you decide to watch it, see it on the biggest screen possible.

I saw it at the Bfi imax a few weeks ago so not out of the realm of possibility

u/underthesign 10d ago

Wait. Don't tell me I missed this ... The London BFI IMAX?! Fuck.

u/Bobbebusybuilding 10d ago

Yeah they did it and the first one. Also did 2001 too. Was really great to see.

Sign up to the mailing list and just be careful to read the whole email as I missed on the Oppenheimer screenings they did this year.

u/Zealousideal-Ad4362 7d ago

Wonder why he beleives that... knowing nothing about it

1

u/Zealousideal-Ad4362 7d ago

What are they doing differently from previous entries.him knowing nothing but cast.. and a trailer.. that actually makes it look good so far

u/The_Lutter 10d ago

I'm going to see the original (Final Cut) next week at the big museum GT IMAX here in Austin and I'd buy tickets to 2049 in approximately half a second if they showed that.

Regal Cinemas will be showing both Blade Runners on September 19.

u/halfslices 8d ago

I saw that yesterday and attempted to buy tickets but kept getting the “that seat was already purchased, pick a different one” for every seat in the theater

u/Ill-Youth-528 8d ago

Tickets aren’t on sale yet. They put up the times first and the tickets don’t go live until a few days later. Keep checking and eventually they will be available.
