News Burning Ambition Documentary

Tickets for the Metallica live concert broadcast in movie theaters were almost sold out in my city. I wouldn't say that movie theaters are generally uninteresting when it comes to music or metal.

75 countries booked hundreds and hundreds of cinemas, but the sales have been a complete flop, so far. It looks like no one is interested in a documentary movie about Maiden :(

Oh look, it's Doom and Gloom again . I imagine I'm like a lot of people and don't buy movie tickets months in advance. I certainly don't expect every theater to be sold out but I think sales will pick up as we get close and there will be walk up sales.

A live concert broadcast is different from a documentary movie released around the world...
 
Do many people book cinema tickets this far in advance? I've never done it.

I had a quick look at a couple of screenings for The Devil Wears Prada 2, same cinema as Maiden and a week earlier. Not too many tickets sold for that either and it's a massive draw.

For 99% of fans, the documentary movie isn't interesting at all, now you've got everything on the Net.

I think this tries to be two things at the same time and will end up being none. I can see a casual fan thinking this one is for the hardcores, and the hardcore fans thinking this will be for the casuals, with nothing caught in between because it's cancelled out.

With that said, I also booked a ticket

Probably you are right. The worst thing would be announcing hundreds of cinematic screenings in some 75 countries around the world, and then canceling the project due to a lack of fan interest. Let's hope they invest in some PR, and finally, the sales will increase. If not, it would be a very bad PR for 50 Anniversary.
