Name Withheld writes in “I am a big fan of the show, I listen every day, and I have a question for Chris’ Advice Corner! There is a big movie coming out soon that I have been looking forward to for, literally, years. But things are financially tight for me so when tickets went on pre-sale, I did not get them immediately. My friends felt bad for me, knowing how much I want to see the movie, so they bought 2 tickets for me. A very kind gesture which I was touched by.    BUT! Unfortunately, they bought me 2 tickets for a showing at a nearby theater, the only theater in my area that DOES NOT HAVE PRE-ARRANGED SEATS. Ever since theaters started this practice, I will not go to a theater that doesn’t. Waiting in line for who knows how long just to get a good seat now seems like the Dark Ages to me. So the theater they picked is one I would normally never patronize. Just the thought now of having to get there extra early fills me with anxiety. I have no idea how popular this movie might be, so it all might be ok. Or I might end up sitting in the front row, or off to the side, etc., or maybe not even able to sit with the person I'm going with, in case there aren't 2 seats in a row.    I realize that if I don’t go to this screening and not tell my friends, then I am wasting their money. If I tell them I'm not going and make sure they ask for a refund of their money, then I might insult them and of course I don’t want to do that. Or do I just suck it up and go. What should I do? Help me Obi-Wan Evangalista, you’re my only hope!    Thanks, Name Withheld City Withheld But I Am A Real Person”   Other articles mentioned:     All the other stuff you need to know: You can find more about all the stories we mentioned on today’s show at slashfilm.com, and linked inside the show notes. /Film Daily is published every weekday, bringing you the most exciting news from the world of movies and television as well as deeper dives into the great features from slashfilm.com.
