Blehhhhh. I did get back to the front of the queue eventually and get tickets again (thanks in part to the Amex presale tickets mistakenly being available to buy already instead of only from Friday) but unfortunately not in my preferred places to sit (always at the end of a row).

I do at least have tickets for both the cat movie and the pope movie.

Anyway, I got to the front of the queue, put my tickets in my basket, attempted to pay and had it 3Dsecure fail a bunch of times (as it apparently did for a bunch of others buying tickets) and THEN it punted me back into like 20000th in the queue even though I had about 15 minutes left on the timer
