The Ticket Counter

Paul Bond of The Hollywood Reporter, writes in an article for the trade, that advance movie tickets for Superman Returns are doing a brisk business.

MovieTickets.com. said Friday that it was selling three times more tickets for "Superman Returns" five days before its opening than it did for "X-Men: The Last Stand" at the same point in that movie's sales cycle. And Fandango said Friday that 25% of all tickets it was selling that day and the day before were for the supes flick

The entire article can be found right here...

This trend paints a rosey outlook of the initial grosses for the picture...but I still wonder how much repeat business the movie will do in the long run? As much as I am rooting for the film to do well--I can't see it doing the kind of multiple viewing ticket sales, as say, Titanic did.
