[quote=Anonymous]I went to see a movie today 3 hrs ahead of time, and as AMC has reserved seating, the screen said the AMC movie I wanted was sold out. So, I bought a ticket for the next showing at 4:15pm from a screen that showed only one available seat left. When I arrived, the seat was fine, although I noticed three seats open on the front row, then later after the film had begun I glanced backward to a number of double seats, and a few single seats still open. So why hadn’t these seats come up on the screen when I chose my seat? I do not have an answer, other than the auto seating mechanism chooses to consolidate seating? I felt annoyed. I could have been out of row 2 and higher up all along. I now wonder what seats would have showed if I had chosen for two people instead of one? This seems pretty suspicious to me. But my biggest criticism of this process is that I want to decide whom I sit next to. When coming into a theatre, I and my friend or family member survey our choices and usually choose seats that suit us - quieter seats without teens or children. Reserve seats take this choice away. When I asked an AMC ticket rep what had happened, he brought up the screen which still showed the film sold out. I told him the theatre had not been sold out - people were even placing their coats on a number of seats. He didn’t believe me, instead he believed his insipid screen. And therein lies the problem. Keep your reserved seating AMC, I won’t be back any time soon. I hate it. Serve the sheep.
