Everyone is crazy about Avatar here in Beijing but most people who want to see the movie are not able to due to…too many people.
A friend of mine went to the movie theater last Wednesday at 8AM and discover that there were literally 1,000 people inline before her to purchase an IMAX 3D Avatar ticket.
She gave up and left the theater.
She ultimately settled for the regular 3D version which she waited inline for 5 hours.
Beijing has almost 20 million residents and only 4 IMAX theaters. As you can see the demand greatly outnumbers the supply.
When Avatar first came out a few weeks ago, I told all my friends I would not see any other version except the IMAX version; now I’ll be glad if I can get a regular 3D version.
Let’s hope Avatar live up to all these hype and not disappoint me when I get a ticket.
It is said that whose first view of the movie almost took their breath away…..
cool, my friends just bought some tickets and they’ve invited me to join them tomorrow (or today). Looking forward to it…
Typin with cell phone, i can’t leave any comments in ur chinese blog. That’s the reason why i came here… Sorry about replying late, but im busy studying. So i don’t have time to reply the comments at matt’s blog. But i really have read the news with the chinese version of google ceo’s post at some sites. R u ABc?
No, I’m not ABC, I’m more of CBA (Chinese born American or Chinese American) haha.
The comment form of about page disappeared….strange….coz missionary school is strict with students. As i know, chinese parents prefer missionary schools. As a consequence of the useless education in mainland, My english becomes poor and poor… Sorry..
I’m looking at it right now….perhaps its because you’re using a cell phone.
BTW, maybe you should have your theme of chinese blog checked. Or enable the wordpress thread comment pluggin. I can’t leave any message at your chinese blog. And, is it the common style of people who majors in marketing? Boring texts without a strong emotion…or It’s how you show to public. But this is your person blog, right? Make me feel like communicating with a lively person not a robot.
I’m tested leaving a comment via my computer and my cellphone and I’m able to do it. I’m not sure why you are not.
Because my server is in the United States, I don’t want my site to be loaded with graphics that will slow down users experience. I know the theme is a little boring but I also like the minimalist feel.
Do you have any good themes to recommend?
going to see it tomorrow morning or afternoon.
I saw it last night, very impressive, almost like a dream (whatever that means). It is definitely worth it.
Just watched it this afternoon. The blue race is like American Indians but their fate is different. This movie is very American.
Yup, the storyline is by no means original but it’s wrapped in such beauty! Did you see the 3D or the 3D IMAX?
