How do you purchase your movie tickets?

I usually buy them at the ticket machine. I'm too lazy to wait in the long line and buy them at the window.

That's a really good question - I've thought about buying them in line, but the ticket machine is right near the line I usually am in (my current most-attended theater because the seats are the most comfortable), so I don't bother with the on-line stuff.

Otherwise, since I see a lot of indie films in small theaters, I definitely buy at the window - no line!

I buy them online and then just collect them with my creditcard in a machine in the movies theatre. I never have to wait in line which is great

If the line's not long I just buy them at the window. But if its really long, like on Friday when I went to the movies, I buy them w/ a credit card at the machine.

I'm used to the line, no matter how long. Unless, of course, it's the premiere weekend of something everyone wants to see... Then I buy it on the internet and pick them up at the theatre.

Or, my favorite... Get them for free and pick them up there since I used to work at a movie theatre until recently and still have friends that give me free tickets.

I usually ask someone else to buy them.

Ahem. Okie, I use the machine when I'm buying them myself.

i buy alot of my movie tickets in advance a couple of days prior to the actual start date of the film that i want to see...i buy them at the theater boxoffice....usually during the afternoon when the theater isn't so crowded...then on the day of the show i just walk right up to the door, hand the person my ticket and walk right in......

I buy them at the window as the theatre where I usually go dosen't have a machine. If its an opening weekend for a big movie I get the tickets in advance as I like to get centre seats not too near the screen

At the window at the theatre! I can't be bothered to pre-book, although I really should.

Get them at the ticket counter. I don't think I've ever seen a machine to get them from here but even if there were I'd still queue up.
