Supergirl tickets are now on sale, and DC fans are already arguing over whether the movie is showing real demand or artificial hype.
A shill-DCU account on X claimed Supergirl tickets âcrashed the AMC appâ after posting a screenshot of AMCâs online queue screen.
The post started making the rounds, with other DC accounts pointing to it as a sign fans were rushing to buy tickets for Milly Alcockâs DCU movie.
The official Supergirl and DC social media accounts also shared the post, which gave the claim even more attention and supposed validation.
The claim is now being challenged.
A Community Notes entry says the AMC queue screen is the siteâs standard entry page shown to visitors, not proof of a crash caused by Supergirl ticket demand.
Another X user pushed back with video evidence (watch below), claiming they reached the Supergirl ticket page and saw only three seats sold.
So much for the fan rush, huh?
AMC Queue Screen Doesnât Prove Supergirl Broke Anything
The screenshot being passed around shows the AMC page saying, âYou are now in line,â with a wait time of one minute.
That might look like a crash if you want it to look like a crash. I remember the MCU stans doing the same for Fantastic Four. How’d that work out?
The problem is the AMC app and website often use queue screens when users enter from the main page, not only when a specific movie is overwhelming the system.
One X user pushed back directly and said AMCâs app and website always throw users into the same generic queue when entering the main page, not the actual ticket purchase page for one movie.
The user also said their video showed they reached the Supergirl ticket page and only three seats had been sold.
A screenshot of the Community Notes entry backs up the same point, saying the queue screen shown is AMCâs standard entry page, not proof of a Supergirl ticket rush.
In other words, a one-minute AMC queue is not the same thing as Supergirl breaking the internet.
Nice try.

Early Ticket Sales Donât Look Massive Yet
Tickets went on sale earlier today for Supergirl. We questioned whether anybody is buying them. They include the Wednesday early access screenings, Thursday previews, and the official Friday opening on June 26.
Judging from Fandango and screenshots making the rounds, early sales do not look huge across a lot of theaters.
In my area, the first screening has sold only six tickets. Two of them are mine.
Big-city theaters such as New York naturally show more seats taken, but that is not the same as nationwide demand. Those locations sit in dense areas with far more people, and many screenings at those theaters are marked busy for major releases because of location alone.
Supergirl needs real broad demand, not just a few premium-format seats sold in major markets. It has enough to worry about. And it definitely doesn’t need fake news.
