Did Mel Anticipate Bad Reviews?

In both the News & Post today was a big ad for YF trumpeting the fact that 100,000 $ 120 seats went on sale today

Are they really throwing the premium seats overboard so early?

Any thoughts?

I wouldn't be surprised. They are still charging $10 more than most of the houses who are charging an avg. of $110 a show.

With the strike picking up steam, Mel wants to sell those tickets while the market is hot. I read he expected bad reviews because of it's crossover from Movies. I am not sure he expected to lower those big money tickets so soon but if they aren't selling, why take the chance of losing sales over negative publicity over ticket prices?
