This may not be news to some of you but it is to me.

Last night I went to get tickets for the opening showing of The Avengers next Thursday I midnight. Of course I want to see it in 3D-IMAX. It’s the biggest movie of the summer (until The Dark Knight Rises) so how could I not. I go to fandango.com, click on the showtime and BAM! Sold out.

In hindsight I don’t know how I didn’t see it coming. This movie has been talked about forever and the anticipation level is almost at a fever pitch. Anyway it looks like I’ll be settling for 3D on a regular screen (at least the first time I see it). I just want this to be a warning to the rest of you. If you are planning on seeing The Avengers on opening night, you might already be too late.

You better believe I won’t make the same mistake with The Dark Knight Rises.
