Los Angeles (myFOXla.com) - Tickets to 14 screenings of the Michael Jackson " This Is It " movie documentary at the LA Live complex sold out within two hours on Sunday morning.
Hundreds of avid Michael Jackson fans had lined up starting Thursday for the opportunity to purchase tickets for the special showings of Michael Jackson's "This Is It" at the Regal Cinemas LA Live on October 27th.
Shortly after midnight on Sunday, they got what they were waiting for, as they purchased their tickets to the early screenings of the movie.
Regal Cinemas LA Live will be the only screening location in the country offering the advance shows and commemorative tickets. "This Is It" will begin its limited, two-week run at movie theaters nationwide on October 28th.
The winding queue for tickets to the first public screenings of the documentary opened Thursday in the courtyard outside the Nokia Theatre at the L.A. Live complex in downtown Los Angeles. The film features a behind-the-scenes look at Jackson preparing for the series of London shows he was rehearsing for before he died June 25.
The first 500 fans in line had been promised commemorative lenticular tickets designed by Jackson for the London concerts at the O2 Arena, another reason fans were motivated to wait in line for over 48 hours.
A total of 3,000 movie tickets were available for the early Oct. 27 shows at L.A. Live's new Regal Cinemas Stadium 14, marking the movie theater's grand opening.
The Sony Pictures film, crafted from hundred hours of rehearsal footage, is directed by longtime Jackson collaborator Kenny Ortega, the "High School Musical" director who had been working with Jackson on the "This Is It" concerts. The movie will feature Jackson rehearsing a number of his songs for the show as well as interviews with his friends and family.
