If you are among the first 5,000 persons to preorder these Blu-rays you get a free ticket to Prometheus in the theater! See Amazon links for details.

Just got my free ticket.

If the movie turns out to suck, can you still cancel your pre-order?

Very happy to see that it will be released in 3D. Thank you!

The trailers look promising, we shall see. So I wonder if this will be the trend for all releases before they even hit the theaters?

How was it delivered Ron?

I ordered this morning using one-click and Prime and never got an email notification of the ticket.
I cancelled that order, then ordered by way of the shopping cart and it said explicitly that I qualified for the free ticket.
I am awaiting the email.

Basically, as I see it, you will be mailed a code to redeem
your free movie ticket via a website.

That code will be mailed out in the next few days.

I am surprised they are allowing this without committing
the customer to purchase. I mean, what stops me from
preordering, redeeming my code and canceling my order
afterwards?
...not like that's my plan, but it seems like someone is
setting themselves up for a possible loss here.

Done.
Ordered thru the link.
Pleaseee, do not let this movie suck! I never blind buy anymore.

Pre-ordered let's see if I get the ticket.

Pre-ordered, and like Steve there was a note in my cart saying I qualified for the ticket. Not too worried about this one sucking, and I pretty much buy all of Ridley Scott's movies anyway. Pretty cool promotion - thanks for the heads-up, Ron!!

a pre-order for a Blu-Ray that hasn't even been released in theaters yet? That's a first. Weird, but I'll give it a shot.

does this count as part of the box office for this?

Amazon did the same for an order of MIB 3.

It's a gamble. I'm sure they know that there is the possibility of losses if everyone who got a free ticket cancelled their pre-order, but they're banking on people seeing the movie and not cancelling.
I placed an order. I not sure if it's going to work for the IMAX theater I'm planning to see it at, but worse case I have a pre order that I can cancel if I don't like the movie.

Surprised at the mediocre reviews posted on Amazon
from the folks that have already seen this film.

In any event, I just got my promotional code from Amazon
for my free movie ticket.

I don't rely on reviews. Prometheus is a movie that I will see with my own eyes, on the biggest digital 3D screen in the area.
I received my promotion code and used it to print off the ticket that will cover $10 of the $14.25 admission.

I received my code as well. Bring it on man!

I just got my code. Very happy, and I'm not letting bad reviews ruin my day. I'm a sci-fi fanatic, and even if it's miles from the original 'Alien' movie in tone(as some reviews mention) I'll just be happy if it is a decent sci-fi film. I am one of the very few that thought 'Legend' from 1985 was a cinematic delight, and I believe it is considered(by basically every movie critic of the time) one of Scott's worst films. Have heart, buy some popcorn, and enjoy the show my friends!

I wonder if you can use this for any theater? is it only major chains?

Erm, was able to answer my own question. Will pay to see it and THEN maybe preorder anyway.
