Some people are reporting that when they go to purchase seats not many are left to choose from but when they get to the theatre a lot of these seats never do end up with bodies in them.

So, are supporters who already saw the movie just buying seats to help the film make more money?

Is the Left buying seats to keep people from seeing the movie?

Is this paying it forward thing whereby people are buying seats for strangers not working fully in that these bought seats are effectively linked up to people to donate them to?

I went to see the movie and I did buy 4 tickets for just that reason.

It might be the pay forward thing.

I believe it’s people buying seats to support the movie...We have done that several times especially knowing there’s no way we can get out to see a movie.

Movie theaters do not have reserved seating like baseball or football stadiums do.

You purchase a ticket, walk into the theater and sit wherever you want.

Our preacher bought a roll of tickets and gave them out to anybody who wanted them after the Sunday sermon.

That "paying it forward" that the article puts weight on is a tad more than 2% of the gross.

There is somewhere a video montage of reports of theater sabotage all over. Some snippets are blips taken inside the theaters with lights going on and off and Theater employees standing in the aisle announcing that unfortunately the A/C is on the fritz and being challenged by viewers about whether the other theaters in the plex are affected..

I’m wondering more if the left is applying for and getting the pay it forward seats, and just letting them rot. That being said, my showing was 2/3 full and my brother just got to it last night and said it was packed. Someone here’s said, and I agree, it’s likely local agitators that are causing the problems that have been documented.

If it made the money, it made the money. People say all kinds of crap. So what?

Why does this movie bother some people so much? It is a true story about a world wide problem. The movie is well done and it proves people want to go see something other than the usual Hollywood sequel type movies.
