I think it's because your comments are doubly important? it's probably a slight mis-configuration – we'll email you shortly with details.

Tom, you have any idea why I have two "Comments" labels above? I am assuming it's a template issue, and your plugin has it's own comments label?

@Mark, Your comment flies in the face of what AMC Theatres own web page says: http://www.amctheatres.com/meetingandevents/index..."Rent an entire theatre for your group and host a private screening of a movie that you choose. This event will bring people closer together by sharing this ultra-cool event. A private screening can be the ideal solution for: * Teambuilding for work * Thank you for your customers * An outing for your organization " and insofar as charging $1 per ticket, there is nothing on this page that suggests this is not permissible. In fact, they go so far as to say "Please collect all monies and pay with cash or a business check at the time of arrival at the theatre." http://www.amctheatres.com/meetingandevents/group...

Techcrunch and the theatre are trying to do something that group sales are not intended for. The Group Sales are for a company's employees not customers (or in this case readers). Furthermore Techcrunch is charging $1 per ticket (to prevent no shows). Both go against the rules.

This is unbelievably stupid of Marvel. It should be illegal to be so stupid.

[...] Iron Man movie website for “group sales.” So what is the Marvel guy’s problem? Hard to say. Obviously, movie studios and content companies like Marvel have an interest in holding publicity [...]
