Iron Man 3 Discussion/Photos/ETC.

Yeah, I heard about that a few days ago. It always sucks when the corporations' issues end up taking stuff away from the fans. IMO all Disney is doing here is hurting themselves.
 
Don't the studios already get a vast majority of the money from ticket sales? Good grief, these theaters have a right to make a profit, too.

Hey, they spent a lot of money getting ready to run the Star Wars franchise into the ground. They're just looking to make some of that back.
 
Disney WTF are you doing?? If this was going to be an issue it should've been addressed long before now.

I agree with JD, Disney is only hurting themselves with the deadline this close to opening.
 
Is there a post credit scene like in the other Marvel Movies? or can I get up when the film ends for once ;)
 
Regal pulls marketing materials for 'Iron Man 3'

The fight between Walt Disney Studios and movie theater chains over how to split revenue from ticket sales for the much-anticipated "Iron Man 3" is getting uglier.

On Tuesday, Regal Entertainment -- the nation's largest theater owner with 7,000 screens in 540 locations -- yanked standees, movie posters and other marketing materials for "Iron Man 3," said a source familiar with the dispute who asked not to be identified.

The dispute has put a cloud over what is expected to be one of the biggest movies of the year. "Iron Man 3" premieres May 3 and Disney is holding a star-studded premiere Wednesday night for the film in Hollywood.

Last week, Regal and AMC Entertainment decided to stop selling advance tickets for "Iron Man 3," contending that Disney was seeking an excessively large take of the box office revenue -- up to 65%.

Cinemark, the nation's third-largest chain, also is not selling advance tickets for "Iron Man 3," according to a review of online ticketing service Fandango.

Wow, what a huge clusterfest!
 
I think Disney will cave. AMC and Regal are the two biggest theater chains in the country. Disney isn't stupid enough to jeopardize the release of such a hyped movie.

But lots of people only have AMC and Regal, it would suck for them if this isn't resolved.
