Comments

  • I just saw the email with complementary tickets for Sunday, May 21. Didn’t even get a chance to reserve anything ☹️. Gone in seconds. Will there be another special screening?

  • Can you see if my names on the waitlist? I dont know if went through and havent seen email?

  • Is there any way to still get tickets for the showing at Downtown Disney on Wednesday?? As long time Disney and Pirates fans, my parents and I would be overjoyed to attend the event!

  • Are there anymore passes for the screening at Dowtown Disney? I saw a number of people got passes but they thought it was for Orlando and can’t use them.

  • Oh man. I have been checking for this type of thing everyday and I was busy the past few days. I have lots of pirate attire. I live in LA. I have been to two potc premieres and was sad that it wasn’t going to be at Disneyland like every other time. I need to go to this. I am sad.

  • Where is premier for those that just want to check out the sidelines? I booked my flight to LAX from Australia believing the premier would be held at DL. It is a overseas trip so you do book in advance so I am guttered as the POTC premiers are the only gathering of fans. I would have gone to Paris as I am an annual pass holder if I can know.

  • Yes the Australians would have liked to have been there but tickets went during the middle of the night. I have a fabulous costume all ready too. Gutted.

  • Wow I just found out about this! I am disappointed as I wanted to get in the fan area as I’m coming all the way from Australia to this event! Not only that these movies were filmed in my home city and I am taking a photo book to show the fans the locations of the movie sets! Hope Disney can see this and do something about this as I really want to be at this event!

  • Lance of Jaze Cosplay Studios is an insanely screen accurate Jack Sparrow. It would be a shame not to see him there. But the crowds would go crazy thinking it was the real Johnny Depp! Please invite JazeCosplay!

  • Saw this earlier today – Got a congrats page but then I hit refresh and got a stand by page and then I clicked again and it’s full. Very sad and broken hearted that this happened, if there’s anyway to be put on a list or standby that would be greatly appreciated.

  • I found my conformation in Spam.
    Thanks again.

  • I printed up the “congratulations” letter but have not received the email yet…are they still being sent out?

  • Got the congratulations screen, but no confirmation email. Will there be a list at check in, and are there other forms we need aside from the likeness waiver?

  • Do we respond to the confirmation email or will there be 2nd one?

  • Sylvia – I got mine quick, but it went into my spam folder. Check there?

  • Fingers crossed! Costume at the ready!

  • Could you clarify the pirate attire? Like, would a pirate skirt / shirt combo topped with a pirate hat / pirate Mickey ears be acceptable for the event? Can I come as Smee? 😛

  • would love to be on a standbye list and can send pics of costumes asap

  • I’m so sad I hit register as soon as this posted and it sent me to a standby page where you couldn’t enter in any info 🙁 kept clicking, now its saying it’s closed. Is there a place to sign up in case the people registered can’t make it? Thanks!

  • How long does it take to get confirmation email ?

  • Is there anyway to get two, please I clicked right when you posted and sold out like quickly. Please my mom is a HUGE jhonny depp fan and this would be an incredible Mother’s Day gift. Please help me. We will be dressed as well. Please ?

  • I got in but I made a typo in the e-mail address. Am I still on the list?

  • Some people got in that dont have pirate costumes… and its already full????? awww man. I have a pretty good sparrow costume! BUMMER

  • Thank you for sharing this. I got in! Now I need a pirate costume.

  • Is this already full? I literally clicked in minutes and get a stand-by page. I can’t add myself to the stand by list because it’s the same page with no form. 🙁
