This will probably be one of the only "New" TNA PPV I actually will watch and watch legitimately since it's actually coming to theaters in our town!

It's an easy way for me to watch their PPV otherwise I'd just wait for KIF to download it and tell me all about it with little interest.

Well, I may end my theatre hiatus to see this. I've been wanting to see Storm/Roode for months.

Well it's only going half against your hiatus since it's not actually a movie you're going to see.

PPVs in a movie theatre, great idea, won't happen in my neck of the woods but wish it would.

Although I already have a massive tv at home, so guess that would be better anyway. Was just thinking how great WM would be in a movie theatre but I've now decided I'd rather stay at home have a few beers, smoke some weed etc. Not much beats the privacy of your own home.

I wouldn't mind going to see it in theaters, depending on the card. Sure, Roode/Storm is an awesome match, but we'll have to wait a long time for that, so I'd like to see some great matches before it. And for something like this, would the theater charge at regular admission, or will TNA set the price? I've never watched a PPV in the theater before.

They used to show closed-circuit feeds for PPV's in the 80's so maybe it's coming back!

Yeah think this sounds like a reasonable idea. Might be a bit of a worry that may not have the overall fan base in the US to draw enough interest, but it is a good way to promote Lockdown as one of their biggest shows.

It is a good way for people that don't have access to the PPV on their tv to see it on the big screen.

In Australia WWE have a deal with one of the cinema chains here to screen PPVs on select screens across the country, they normally draw a decent crowd.

Here's a list of the theaters.

WHAT?!!! TULSA, OKLAHOMA is NOT on the list! THAT IS SO MUCH BALZ!!!
How far is Shawnee? SHawnee? WHere the hell is that?
Sorry...I'm calm. ANyway, hope it's coming near you! :D


EDIT: Shawnee is only 1 hr and 15 mins from me; Tulsa is like an hour. So, I might just go!
ALso Tickets are listed as $14.95...is that normal movie ticket prices now?
